🌕 Moon Phases in July 2025
The moon is on her usual moody journey this month. Here’s what she’s up to and how to work with her:
🌑 New Moon in Cancer – 5 July
✨ Theme: Emotional renewal, home & intuition
🪄 Ritual Idea: Anoint your heart space with moon water and lavender oil. Write a letter to your inner child and place it under a quartz cluster.
🌕 Full Moon in Capricorn – 21 July
✨ Theme: Structure, ambition, boundaries
🪄 Ritual Idea: Burn a petition with one fear or block stopping your growth. Sit with garnet or black tourmaline and repeat: “I am grounded in truth and rising with power.”

🔥 Fire Energy + Solar Magic (Because It’s Hot AF)
Don’t ignore the sun just because we love the moon 🌞 July is ruled by solar magic, which means it’s time to:
- Charge your crystals in sunlight (avoid: amethyst & rose quartz — they fade!)
- Make solar water by steeping citrus & mint under the midday sun
- Draw sigils with cinnamon and set them under the sun to activate
- Burn a candle with sunflower petals and write: “I call in boldness and joy.”

Stuff a yellow sachet with dried lemon peel, rosemary, and a citrine tumble. Whisper an affirmation:
“Joy is my birthright. I shine like the sun.”
