Episode 44: Let's go over the major astrological transits of July!

Straight from my notebook:

2nd: Neptune Retrograde begins (5 month transit)

Mercury in Leo

Neptune retrograde is like reality checks, refiguring your dreams, coming across limits to how you’ve been thinking. Especially because Saturn is also in the same sign here. It’s retrograding at 29 degrees and 59 minutes of Pisces which is the last minute of Pisces. Seems significant

July 2-4: Mercury trine Neptune then opposite Pluto 

Confusing, powerful, delusional, forceful, deep feeling, assigning meaning to something immense that may not be true

July 5th: New Moon in Cancer

Not too bad, but having a new moon around a holiday in the U.S. will bring a sort of stillness to festivities that may not be what people want during a holiday. New Moons are great moments of reset. To get our bearings, take inventory, and set intentions for how we’d like to move forward. In Cancer, it could concern matters of the family, home, and responsibility.

11th: Venus in Leo (opposite Pluto)

Persephone…. Glamour… drama

15th-16th: Mars Uranus conjunct in Taurus

Volatile, erratic. Injury could happen. Unexpected events and actions from yourself and others and in the world in general. Volcano kind of energy.

20th: Mars in Gemini

Things speed up even more as we enter the center of summer.

21st: Full Moon in Capricorn

Sun trine Neptune exactly

Moon trine Mars and Pluto almost exactly

Mercury square Uranus exactly

Moon will move into Aquarius later in the day and conjunct Pluto. 

This isn’t the easiest full moon of all time. There’s a certain intensity here that seems bound to push everyone’s buttons. There’s an element of surprise in the air, and it’s not a lighthearted one. There’s also an air of delusional and fantasy that could make things even more dangerous. Use caution, keep it simple, and stay to the basics right now.

22nd: Sun in Leo (opposite Pluto)

Same aspects as full moon apply.

This is out first Leo season with Pluto in Aquarius (where it will remain for the next 20 years). With Pluto opposite the sun it may not feel like Leo season will be heralded in with as much passion and joy as we’re used to. There will be an intensity to this transition and the presence of Pluto will be felt. Pluto represents destruction, renewal, and power.

25th: Mercury in Virgo

Mercury likes to be in Virgo and you may get a little extra in your head at this time. You may notice details you were missing prior.

End of month: Mercury Rx about to start

Expect delays, mishaps, and errors. Plan for the “worst”. Take extra time getting anywhere. Be careful with your choice of words.
