Last week to book a 1-1 reading with me for this season at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/reading

It’s July 2025, and we are officially at the midpoint of the year. This is the time to pause, reflect, and realign with your deeper truth and long-term vision. In this episode, I go deep into the energy of the July transits—from Neptune and Saturn turning retrograde in Pisces, to the fiery Full Moon in Sagittarius, to the more grounded shift of Mars into Virgo at the end of the month.

This is also a powerful time to get clarity on what’s next for you. That’s why I’m offering Mid-Year Clarity Readings again—something I only do once a year. Last year they sold out, so if you’re feeling called to make a shift, get your chart read, or understand your timing more deeply, go to ⁠quietmindastrology.com/readings⁠ to book before this offer expires on Monday July 7th.

We cover all 10 major transits this month, including:

• July 2: Calendar midpoint of the year—ideal for stillness, journaling, and reflection.

• July 5: Neptune retrograde begins in Uttara Bhadrapada—spiritual reflection, compassion, or escapism?

• July 10: Full Moon in Purva Ashadha, Sagittarius—nurturing joy, truth, and adventure.

• July 13: Saturn retrograde in Pisces—revisiting boundaries, managing fear, and reestablishing practices.

• July 16: Sun in Cancer—emotional leadership, nurturing, sensitivity, and boundaries.

• July 18: Mercury retrograde in Cancer—sentimental reflection, emotional conversations, and miscommunication.

• July 21: Moon exalted in Taurus—emotional nourishment, connection, and resistance to change.

• July 24: New Moon in Pushya—emotional intention setting, deep healing, and aligning with how you want to feel.

• July 26: Venus enters Gemini—playfulness, creativity, distraction, and vata management.

• July 28: Mars enters Virgo—taking grounded, practical action with disciplined focus.

I also dive into how Mars and Ketu in Leo have created intense energy that’s finally resolving by the end of the month.

Key takeaways:

— Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu & Ketu are setting the themes of your life—check the archives for deep dives on each.

— Neptune retrograde through the end of the year invites you to discern illusion from intuition.

— Saturn retrograde reminds you to refine your emotional regulation, commitments, and boundaries.

— Mercury retrograde in Cancer is great for reviewing old journals, healing conversations, and sentimental memories.

— Venus in Gemini can bring joyful creativity—but also overwhelm. Focus your attention wisely.

— Mars in Virgo is the real reset point—time to organize, prioritize and take action.

5 Key Quotes from the Episode:

1. “The sun standing still at the solstice reminds us to pause and realign. Take five minutes of stillness. That alone can be powerful.”

2. “Neptune retrograde is less about escape and more about returning to spiritual clarity. What illusions are you ready to shed?”

3. “You don’t need to do all 15 things on your to-do list—just do the most important one, with full focus.”

4. “The emotional scale is one of the most helpful tools I’ve found. Anger can actually be progress if you’ve been stuck in depression.”

5. “What you really want isn’t the thing—it’s the feeling. The more you nurture that feeling now, the more you align with it.”
