The garden July flowers. These hostas have always went to bloom around my husbands mom’s birthday, and sadly around the anniversary of her death as well. The one year it was on her birthday, I came home to see them like this. Having them so beautifully in full bloom, healthy and vibrant is meaning a lot right now.
Today, July 29 is another full moon. Apparently a lucky full moon. More energy shifts happening.
On June 29, 2026, 8:56 PM EST, a Full Moon peaks at 08º14’ of Capricorn, while Mercury is stationary retrograde in the opposite sign of Cancer. A lot is going on in the heavens these days, and the current Full Moon is shining a light on where we are at in our reparenting and maturation journeys, asking us to refine the balance between nurturing our inner, emotional lives and taking care of our worldly responsibilities and commitments.
When the Moon is Full, emotions are intensified, situations can reach a point of culmination or resolution, and clarity becomes available. At this time of the month, we have an opportunity to see everything more clearly, or we can no longer pretend we don’t: we are being asked to acknowledge what works, what doesn’t, what needs to change, and what needs to be released.
Asking for help may be more difficult than usual these days: with the Moon here, we can be more drawn to suppressing our feelings and needs and choose a distorted form of stoicism over the risks of embracing vulnerability and showing emotions. At the same time, the Moon in Capricorn helps us stay grounded in reality, have clear boundaries, and not get lost or stuck in the ebbs and flows of emotion.
As the Moon in Capricorn opposes the Sun in Cancer, we are being offered an invitation to practice reparenting ourselves, becoming our own mother and father, the adult our inner child needs. The invitation for us is to honor both our need for nourishment and care and our desire to build something meaningful in the outer world, knowing that one doesn’t necessarily exclude the other.
