The Best Days in July

These date’s are based off the moon’s phases and constellational location. This was a lot of fun to study! If you know of any life activities to do according to the moon, add them in the comments below, will consider adding them into next month’s blog post.

The Sun is in the Cancer constellation until July 22nd. The ruler of Cancer is the Moon, a luminary, not a planet. The body part for Cancer is the breast. On July 23, the Sun moves into Leo. The ruler of Leo is the Sun, a luminary and star. The body parts for Leo is the heart, spine and upper back.

There is a new moon in Cancer on July 5th and a full moon in Capricorn on July 21st.
