I say this with great personal conviction (as a Gemini). My cat died recently and I always say 'damage accumulates', this one event unlocked many unresolved and 'parked' (we Gemmys don't like doing deep emotions) feelings from the past year. It was time to surrender, let the emotions rise, acknowledge the disappointments, losses, and betrayals, and accept they've happened on every level.
And then… the dawn awaits, the comeback, the phoenix rises from the ashes.But first we must burn. Let your sorrow burn away the 'fluff' this Full Moon. The reckoning is with what life has done to you. And the reset is what you're going to do next. It WILL be epic.

Cancer, you're a cardinal sign, an inventor and pioneer. When you've got your teeth into something, you're unstoppable, and all of your intuition and creativity works seamlessly in flow to lay down the swiftest, most perfect pathway towards your goal.
Set that goal this Full Moon. You are ruled by the Moon, so sit outside and let its rays infiltrate your soul, let your mind drift upwards into the night skies, let it roam and settle on what your higher self truly wants for you. It will be the very best. And it's time to make it happen.

Sit with all of this during this Full Moon. Sit outside, in the evening, and just ponder and daydream. Clarity is coming. It will feel like a coming-together of your thoughts and your feelings. Your heart will respond to an idea and the two parts of you will meet and unite on it.
And THEN you know you have unlocked what it truly is that stirs and motivates you. And it's time to act on it.

How to Make the Most of a Full Moon
The full moon has captivated humans for millennia. It's inspired the lyrics of songs; been the subject of conspiracy theory; the source of creepy folklore. Across cultures and traditions, the moon's mystique has long been revered—the moon is said to represent everything from femininity to emotions to the cycles of death and rebirth. Of course, the moon isn't just symbolic—it's also necessary for life on earth as we know it. It provides seasonal weather stability, dictates the length of the day, and controls the Earth's axial tilt. Without the moon, our planet might literally spin off into space, out of control. It also may not be a coincidence that most menstruating women's monthly cycles are around 28 days long—the same amount of time that the moon takes to complete its own cycle from new to full. 'The moon and its different phases have a real influence on countless things, from animals and humans to the tides and climate,' explains author Danielle Copperman. With that all in mind, it's no wonder so many of us like to keep tabs on the moon. As the next full moon—the 'Stag Moon' taking place in the sign of Capricorn on July 10th—arrives, it seems only fitting that we make the most of it, too. What are the different phases of the moon? The moon's cycle lasts 28 days, during which time it moves from new moon to waxing to full moon to waning. Energetically speaking, these fullness cycles can represent our own cycles and timing. For example, when the moon goes from new to waxing, it gradually appears to 'fill' with light, and thus is believed to bring energy and abundance. According to many traditions, this is the ideal time to manifest your goals and desires. Conversely, when the moon goes from full to waning, its light narrows, making it an opportune time to let go and put things in order. This can be literal, in the form of tidying up or decluttering, or personal, as in releasing negative thought patterns or past wounds. While each cycle between the new moon and full moon are periods that signify transformation, the new moon and full moon are usually considered the most opportune and intense. 'They are the beginning and ending points of the cycle and are, therefore, the most powerful,' says Copperman, noting that many people anecdotally report that they feel either energized or strangely down during full and new moons. The impact of the full moon During a full moon, the moon is at its largest and brightest as its entire face is reflecting the light of the sun without being obscured by the shadow of the earth. 'The full moon is a period of illumination that can be very energetic, both when it's 100% full and in the few days leading up to it,' notes Copperman.

July 2025 full buck moon in Capricorn is about to be here — these zodiac signs will feel it the most
All hail the holy grind — the full buck moon in Capricorn is upon us. The full buck moon will rise on Thursday, July 10, reaching peak illumination at 4:37 P.M. Eastern Time at 18 degrees of Capricorn. As a cardinal earth sign, Capricorn is an initiator, a builder, a voice of reason and at times a flat-out murderer of whimsy. Concerned with the tangible, Cap is driven by capital gains, ultimate payoff and the desire to leave a legacy that will outlive it. Ruled by stern daddy Saturn, Cap energy is about the sweet reward of the hard won. Synonymous with steady ascent, Capricorn teaches us to plot (be it a course or a hostile takeover), take our time, turn disappointments into discipline and setbacks into strategy, crush our enemies, protect a trusted few and carefully play our hand in the ever-loving long game. As per 'The Old Farmer's Almanac,' July's full moon is known as the Buck Moon, an homage to the male deer whose antlers are in full-blown growth mode during the deep heat of summer. Bucks grow and shed their antlers each year, producing more elaborate sets as time passes. When the antlers are fully grown, they harden to bone. The Buck Moon will be most visible on the night of July 10 and into the early morning hours of July 11. We'll all be under the strategic pull of this full moon, but four signs in particular are poised to feel its effects most acutely. Happy Full Moon Aries, the Buck Moon is rising and shining in your tenth house of legacy, foundation, ambition,and legacy. With a mess of planets moving and retrograding through your sign this month, the time has never been more nigh to consider whether the work you do is soul-quenching or simply place-holding. Is it time to look further afield for fulfillment, or consider reducing your role and having more room to roam? Remember to look up tonight and welcome the answers you see reflected there. Ahoy, Cancer. The full buck moon shines a light on your closest personal and professional relationships, encouraging you to assess the balance within your bonds. While it is impossible and ineffectual for relationships to be an equal 50/50 split 100% of the time, it is reasonable to require an equal stake in effort and investment. Reciprocity is the bedrock of healthy relationships however scorekeeping and a tit for tat love tax are petty business. Given these terms, are you on the take or over-delivering on the give? Resentful or rapacious? Whatever the spread, now is the time to make a plan to restore balance for the sake of bounty. Happy Full Moon, Libra! The focus for you in this moonlight is your fourth house of home and habits, the past and its pains. The sun in Cancer and the moon in Capricorn highlight the intersection of intimacy and ambition. I wonder what could be achieved if you thought of your attachments as an investment, building into your bonds and measuring your wealth by the depth of them. The moon shines on and for you this month, Capricorn. The full buck moon highlights your first house of the self. In the undertow of feelings deep Cancer season, you may find yourself experiencing waves of acute tenderness, crippling nostalgia and unfamiliar self-doubt. Don't be alarmed. You're not going soft, seagoat, you're just finding new ways to go deep. Astrologer Reda Wigle researches and irreverently reports on planetary configurations and their effect on each zodiac sign.

The Buck Full Moon Is Coming — This Is What It Means For Each Individual Star Sign
If things are feeling a little off-kilter for you of late, then take solace in the fact that July's Full Moon — which has a more formal, animalistic name of the Buck Moon — is about to rise tomorrow, and with it may come an inevitable stable of distress. The 'Buck Moon' borrows its name from the time when male deer, or bucks, begin to grow their new antlers, a symbol of summer's peak and nature's renewal, per BBC's Sky At Night, and it will be available to witness in London on or around sunset at 9:16 p.m. BST, or moonrise at 9:46 p.m. BST on Thursday, July 10. As well as rising late at night in the Northern Hemisphere, July's Buck Moon is also notable because it's one of the lowest-hanging full moons of the year. That's because the Full Moon is opposite the sun, so it mirrors the sun's position — the Full Moon is at its lowest when the sun is at its highest. In theory, that means July's Full Moons never get very high in the sky. That's not all: this year's Buck Moon is also a catalyst for inner strength and realignment, owing to the tension between Cancer Sun, which dictates our personal lives, and Capricorn Moon, which dictates public ambition. What does that mean exactly? Well, in short, it means that this Full Moon will bring a powerful wave of growth, renewal and reality checks for all twelve zodiac signs. This Buck Moon is a time to reinforce boundaries and unapologetically pursue ambitions. This is everything you need to know about how the Buck Full Moon will impact each and every star sign over the upcoming weeks. The Buck Moon is responsible for supercharging ambition so expect wild urges this month to chase goals that perhaps, until now, you've been burying deep within. Your confidence may begin to spike, but so too may your impatience so channel that energy into a bold move, not a meltdown. Shine bright, but don't bulldoze your way through. Given that this is the Full Moon with most sway over ambition, it's perhaps only right that the Buck Moon will spotlight your finances and values, dear Taurus. It's time to shed old spending habits and invest in what truly matters: emotional security and the relationships that tether you and keep you grounded. Expect a surprise in your comfort zone but rather than running a mile (which may be your natural instinct), embrace it. Communication is your playground this year, Gemini, and July's Buck Moon will well and truly hand you the megaphone. Whatever is on your mind to say though, remember to speak your truth, but don't overshare. Sibling drama or neighbourhood news may surface, but remember that what goes around comes around so try to avoid the urge to engage in frivolous gossip. If there's been a simmering romance burning in the background in your life, this may well be the time to start to enjoy it a little; write, call, connect, but don't forget to listen. The moon is your celestial North Star, and this month's Full Moon promises to truly light up your self-worth. If old, tired insecurities threaten to resurface, channel your inner light. Remember that you've worked hard to be where you are today; there were days when you dreamed of what you have today. Money matters may also demand attention this month, but remember to just budget, there's no need to binge. The Buck Moon lands in your sign this month, Leo, making you even more of the main character than you may be. Use that energy to reinvent your look, your brand, and your attitude; old drama may well fall away, meaning there's every chance that relationships will shift as you demand authenticity. Just remember to keep the people who have supported you from the beginning by your side; loyalty has never meant more. Consider this Buck Moon your cosmic detox, Virgo. If hidden feelings threaten to bubble up, then let them — it's time to release what's no longer serving you. A secret might come to light, but it's liberating, not scandalous and so use the energy it imparts in your life to prepare for a new chapter. Mental and emotional clutter, be gone! July is the social calendar explodes — expect invitations, group chats, and maybe a reunion. The Buck Moon highlights your friendships and future goals but remember that while collaboration is key, so too is setting boundaries. In the romance realm, love has the potential blossom with a friend, or an old flame may reappear so be ready but hold on to balance. That's the ultimate key to happiness. A career makeover is coming your way during this Buck Moon, dear Scorpio, as it puts your ambitions in the spotlight. The moment you've been waiting for is coming too, as the propulsive energy of this Full Moon will lead you to a place of recognition. Own your power, but play nice with people in positions of authority. Remind yourself too that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, so ensure that you attain some semblance of a work-life balance. If you've been hustling for a while, trust that the rewards are close. Adventure beckons this month, Sagittarius, and the Buck Moon is your cosmic passport. Travel, study, or a wild idea may tempt you this month, all that's left for you to do is to say yes and lean into the power of the unknown. Everything is possible. And while it may be time to broaden your horizons, don't ghost your responsibilities — inspiration may strike from afar. Transformation is the name of the game. The Buck Moon will expose what's hidden: debts, desires, or a taboo topic, so ensure that you demand clarity from financial matters (particularly shared resources) that may arise. This month, an intimate relationship will also deepen or end, but before you make any knee-jerk decisions, remember that vulnerability is your secret weapon. Walk away from old baggage that no longer serves you and watch as, like a phoenix from the ashes, you emerge stronger. Partnerships take centre stage this month as the Buck Moon brings clarity to a relationship — romantic, business, or otherwise. It will also force you to make a choice when a pressing decision looms: now is your time to either commit or quit. Remember, though, that amid the chaos communication is key, but so too is compromise. If you're single, a surprising connection could spark and collaboration will reap rewards, but only if you stay true to who you really are. Wellness is your Full Moon focus for the month of July; use the energy that you'll feel to cement habits and routines you've been trying to make stick, but listen to your body rest, hydrate, and skip the drama. There may be a work project that wraps up too, or a new door that opens but remember to organise your chaos. ELLE Collective is a new community of fashion, beauty and culture lovers.
