An Open Letter To Libra For July 2026
Dear Libra,
I’ve been thinking about you lately, and with these upcoming July lunations (New and Full Moons) stirring the skies, it felt like the perfect moment to sit down with a cup of coffee and write you another letter. There’s a lot happening up there above the clouds, but don’t worry, it’s the kind of cosmic correlations that nudges us forward rather than knocks us off our feet. In fact, July 2026 has a way of reminding us that life is still full of fresh starts, surprising breakthroughs, and emotional clarity. So let’s walk through it together.
The New Moon: How would I characterise it? I think this New Moon is best described as a gentle but determined one. With the Sun conjunct the Moon, we’re getting that classic reset button: a moment to breathe out the old and breathe in the new. But this isn’t just any New Moon. It’s tightly conjunct Mercury, which means your mind is switched on, your intuition is sharp, and your voice is ready to express something honest and overdue. If you’ve been struggling to articulate a feeling or a plan, this lunation brings the words. There’s also a semi-sextile to Venus, which softens everything. It’s like the universe is saying, “Go ahead, speak your truth; but do it with kindness, with grace, with love.” You might find yourself smoothing over a misunderstanding, reconnecting with someone dear, or simply remembering how good it feels to be gentle with yourself.
And speaking of Venus, she’s in a semi-sextile with Mercury too, reinforcing this theme of heartfelt communication. This is the kind of energy that helps you write a message you’ve been putting off, or finally say something that’s been niggling away in the back of your mind, so to speak. It’s not dramatic: it’s healing. You want to make things better if you can. But here’s where things get interesting: Venus is square Uranus, and Mars is conjunct Uranus. This is the wild card energy of the month. Uranus doesn’t like routine, and it certainly doesn’t like stagnation. With Venus involved, relationships may feel unpredictable. With Mars involved, your impulses may surprise even you. But don’t be afraid of this. Uranus shakes loose what’s stuck. It frees what’s been trapped. It brings breakthroughs disguised as disruptions. If something shifts suddenly around this New Moon, a plan changes, a person surprises you, or you feel an unexpected surge of courage; trust that it’s clearing space for something more authentic. Uranus seldom removes anything essential. It only removes what’s blocking your growth. So, my Libra friend, this New Moon is your invitation to start fresh with honesty, with open-hearted communication, and with a willingness to let life rearrange itself in your favour. You don’t need to force anything. Just stay curious and flexible. In short: let the universe show you what’s ready to bloom.
The Full Moon: This Full Moon is a powerful one: not heavy, but deep. It’s the kind of lunation that brings emotional truth to the surface like a pearl rising from the seabed. The Moon stands opposite Pluto, which means something hidden becomes visible. But don’t worry, this isn’t about drama. It’s about empowerment. Pluto helps you see what’s been quietly influencing your feelings or decisions. Maybe it’s an old fear, a limiting belief, or a pattern of behaviour you’ve outgrown. Whatever it is, this Full Moon shines a light on it so you can release it with clarity rather than confusion. And here’s the beautiful part: the Moon is also trine Neptune. This softens everything. It brings compassion, forgiveness, imagination, and spiritual insight. If the Pluto opposition reveals the wound, Neptune reveals the healing. You may find yourself understanding someone’s behaviour in a new way, or feeling unexpectedly peaceful about something that used to trouble you. It’s a reminder that you’re growing, and that your heart is wiser than it once was.
The Full Moon also forms a sextile to Uranus, which brings a breath of fresh air. This is the “aha” moment, the sudden shift in perspective, the sense of liberation that comes when you finally let go of something that’s been weighing you down. Uranus helps you break free — gently this time, not with the shock of the New Moon, but with the clarity of hindsight.
And then there’s the big one: the Full Moon is in aspect to Jupiter. This is pure emotional expansion. However, you must be cautious and reign yourself in a little; because there is a slight risk you might try too hard and bite off more than you can chew. Nevertheless, hope and optimism loom large. You are riding high on the crest of optimism and sense that life is opening up again. Jupiter brings blessings, opportunities, and a feeling of abundance. Under this Full Moon, you may feel more confident, more supported, or more ready to take a leap of faith. It’s the universe’s way of saying, “You’re allowed to want more. You’re allowed to grow.”
In addition there are also semi-sextiles to Mars and Venus, which add a subtle but meaningful layer. Mars gives you courage. Venus gives you harmony. Together, they help you act from a place of love rather than fear. And yes, the Moon is also in opposition to the Sun, as all Full Moons are; but this one feels like a balancing act rather than a tug-of-war. It’s about aligning your inner world with your outer choices.
What does this month mean to you? If I could sum up July 2026 in one sentence, it would probably be this: you are stepping into a new chapter with more honesty, more clarity, and more emotional freedom than before. It’s all looking potentially good because the New Moon helps you speak your truth and embrace change. Furthermore, the Full Moon helps you release old fears and open your heart to possibility. You’re not being pushed: you’re being guided. You’re not being tested: you’re being prepared. You’re not losing anything essential; you’re making room for what’s real.
So be gentle with yourself this month. Trust your instincts. Let conversations unfold naturally. Let surprises be invitations rather than threats. And most of all, remember that you are growing in ways you may not fully understand yet, but you will soon. But always remember this: I’m in your corner cheering you on. Never forget that!
Well, I think that’s me all written out for this letter. So until I write again “God Bless and Protect”.
Bye bye.
Yours sincerely,
Guy Doleman: Astrologer
