This year’s Cancer season is special because it ends exactly as it began — with a powerful full moon. The full moon appearing on July 21 is considered an astrological “blue moon,” as it’s the second consecutive lunar climax occurring during Cancer season.

Having the full moon in Capricorn, a hardworking and goal-oriented earth sign, offers all zodiac signs an opportunity to capitalize on their winter intentions and begin building their long-term visions for success.

6 Zodiac Signs with Healing Powers

Similar to June’s Strawberry Moon, July’s full moon — nicknamed the Buck Moon in some Native American traditions — rises in Capricorn, shifting the cosmic focus from Cancerian themes like family and domesticity to issues involving work and ambition. This productive energy can inspire you to work a bit harder to achieve your goals and be more disciplined in your path, making it a great time to make powerful moves towards your tangible plans.

However, unlike the lunation that ushered in winter last month, this one finds the sun and moon at the last degree of Cancer and Capricorn, respectively — which is significant because this degree infuses the full moon’s vibration with the anticipatory energy of impending change. If channeled correctly, this motivating force can help you make serious progress within yourself and towards your goals.

Consecutive full moons in the same sign are rare, so you’ll want to make the most of this lunar magic. Here are some things you can do and avoid during July’s full moon to maximize the vibes.

DO: Be productive

Capricorn’s zodiacal energy is about putting your nose to the grindstone and walking steadfastly towards your goals. That’s why this full moon is a fantastic time to block off some chunks in your calendar for deep work sessions or embrace productivity. You can hop on the fast track to success if you put in the necessary work now to make your dreams come true, so don’t waste time sitting around. Be prepared to act and execute your tasks with strength.

DON’T: Wait for the “perfect” moment

When it comes to manifestation, it’s important to strike while the iron is hot — and under this full moon, there’s no choice but to jump into action. There will never be a “perfect” moment to take a leap of faith, but with this lunation so beautifully supported by action-oriented Mars and miraculous Uranus, trust that now might be a good time to dive into your intentions.

DO: Be realistic about your goals

Since July’s full moon is rising in a pragmatic earth sign like Capricorn, it’s important to keep your feet on the ground during this period and be realistic about what you can achieve. If you try to take on too much, you might end up overwhelmed — which could discourage you from pursuing your plans. Explore your truth and be honest about what you can accomplish. Once you commit to this and start incorporating confidence, you’ll be unstoppable.

DON’T: Fear taking risks

The lunation is making an almost perfect trine aspect (and very auspicious) with the unpredictable planet Uranus, injecting some unexpected excitement into everyone’s full moon experience. Channeling Capricorn’s sensible and practical approach to things right now is great, but also be willing to step a bit outside your comfort zone. Taking a risk or seizing a surprise opportunity could be worthwhile.

DO: Expect the best

Being realistic about your full moon goals is good, but thanks to a sweet and supportive lunar connection with the mystical and ethereal planet Neptune, it’s okay to be a bit idealistic about things. Strive to dream a little bigger and aim a little higher. With so much planetary support on your side, you have every reason to feel optimistic about this lunation and expect good things to happen.

DON’T: Rush the process

Good things often take time to develop, and under this lunar vibration, it’s important to act swiftly but not necessarily expect instant results. Capricorn’s energy prefers to move with sustainability rather than haste — and furthermore, the full moon is almost perfectly conjoined with the transformational planet Pluto, which catalyzes change on a deep and long-term level. Taking action and progressing towards your goals is an ideal plan now, but make sure not to rush into anything without thoughtful consideration of what’s to come.
