The day of Venus, Friday takes its name from Frigga, the Goddess of Love and Transformation. She rules the spiritual aspects of people as they manifest on the physical. Because of this, Friday is sometimes thought of as unpredictable. Magical aspects: love, friendship, reconciliation, and beauty.

Friday has often been associated with relaxation as it is at the end of the week, but the good feeling that comes with it.

Friday also has a lot to do with the fact that it is ruled by the planet Venus – The Goddess of Love. Lusterless relationships and disputes may be settled on Fridays with the aid of a spell to Venus and perhaps a small personal sacrifice.

Friday is also associated with Caribbean wealth spells and has been known to improve friendships, Platonic love and increase your desirability. Be careful what you wish for on Friday, Venus’ eyes could be smiling!

This is the proper day of the week to perform spells and rituals involving love, romance, marriage, sexual matters, physical beauty, partnerships, friendships, social activities, strangers, pleasure, music, incense, perfumes, nature, and arts and crafts.

…

The Moon phase for July 18th, 2026 is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase

July 2026 New Moon ~ Turbulent Tears

The new Moon 14 July 2026 falls at 21º Cancer Decan 3. Aspect: Conjunction Mercury retrograde. Fixed Star: Castor in the head of the mortal twin in Gemini. Tarot Card: 4 of Cups

New Moon in Cancer Decan 3 rises through one of the zodiac’s most emotionally volatile landscapes. The Moon is powerful in its home sign, but the influence of the celestial twins creates an atmosphere of contradiction and restless feelings. Calm on the surface yet turbulent underneath, this decan rarely experiences emotions in moderation.

New Moon in Cancer 2026…

In the middle of one of the most turbulent astrological seasons in recent memory, the sky goes quiet for a moment. Not silent — there is no silence in July 2026. Mercury is retrograde, Saturn is preparing to station, Jupiter has just blazed into Leo, the Basket is at its most exact. The cosmic weather is dense and significant and moving fast. And right in the center of all of it, on July 14th at 2:44am PST, the Moon and Sun meet at 21 degrees of Cancer — and for one still, dark, lunar moment, the sky asks you to stop. To go inward. To feel what all of this transformation is actually doing to you on the inside.

New Moons are beginnings. They are the moment of seed-planting, of intention-setting, of the quiet before a new cycle takes root. And a New Moon in Cancer — the sign the Moon rules, the sign most deeply connected to feeling, to memory, to the interior life — is perhaps the most instinctual, most emotionally honest lunation of the entire year.

But this one is not asking you to simply set intentions and move forward. This New Moon, conjunct retrograde Mercury and squared by two powerful asteroids, is asking something more specific and more demanding: what are you truly devoted to? And is the strategy you are running actually in service of that devotion — or has the strategy become the thing itself, detached from the feeling that originally gave it meaning?

That is the question at the heart of this lunation. Let us get into it.

     How To Work With The July 14 New Moon In Cancer

Conclusion

A New Moon in Cancer — the sign the Moon rules — is the most natural moment of the year to go deeper into your own lunar nature. What sign is your Moon in? How does it shape the way you feel, the way you need, the way you instinctively move through the world?

If you have never explored your Moon sign in depth, my book Moon Signs: Unlock Your Inner Luminary Power was written exactly for this moment. It covers every Moon sign placement — what it means for your emotional life, your relationships, your creative expression, and your path toward genuine self-nurturance. It is, in many ways, a Cancer New Moon book: written for the part of you that feels first and understands later. This is a quiet New Moon in a loud season. Honor that quiet. It is where the most important things grow.

July 2026 New Moon: Date, Timings and Astrological Significance

The Moon phase for July 14th, 2026 is the New Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is positioned between the Sun and Earth and is 0% illuminated (i.e the moon is not visible to us in the sky).

Due to the alignment of the Sun, the Moon and Earth, the side of the moon that faces Earth is left in complete darkness. In technical terms this is referred to as a conjunction or Syzygy.

Also, during the New Moon phase, the moon rises and sets at around the same time as the Sun. This brings to the moon too close to the glare of the Sun for us to see the moon with the naked eye.

The Moon phase for today is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing  earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

The Moon phase for July 7th, 2026 is the Last Quarter phase, which is also sometimes known as the Third Quarter. In this phase, the moon has completed three quarters of it’s orbit around the earth and exactly half of the moon is illuminated and half is in darkness.

The Last Quarter phase comes roughly 3 weeks after the New Moon and this is when the moon has completed three quarters of its orbit around the Earth (hence the name, Last Quarter). The moon will rise around midnight on the eastern horizon, transits the meridian at sunrise, before setting at noon in the west.

The Last Quarter of the moon phase cycle happens on one day. It’s followed by the intermediate phase, Waning Crescent, and will become less illuminated every day until it reaches the New Moon phase.

The Moon phase for July 6th, 2026 is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).

The waning (shrinking) gibbous Moon will rise after sunset in the east, transit the meridian after midnight, before setting after sunrise in the west.
