July ends with 4 planets retrograde in fire signs during Leo season, and bringing our awareness to how we are tending to an internal bonfire that may also be burning away more of what you no longer need in the second half of 2025. Chiron stations retrograde at 27 deg Aries on July 30, trining the Galactic Center, which highlights any belief systems that are ready to evolve with your healing experiences now. Does the belief system support your growth or your wounding? Venus enters Cancer on July 30, where she now dances as a lunar goddess directly connected to the moon's ebbs and flows until August 25. She has a tough square to both Saturn RX and Neptune RX in Aries on August 1, so it's not the best day for relational or financial energies. Mercury RX in Leo makes a conjunction to the Sun in Leo at 8 degrees on the last day of the month, so the Messenger planet has information for the Sun to ponder, integrate - or burn up. And Mars moves into Libra on August 6, which initiates an active Air Grand Trine with Pluto RX and Uranus, plus a Kite with Neptune RX and Saturn RX in Aries. Mars holds an objective, detached stance that is vital for forward movement. Whatever is discussed and decided into mid-August will lead to a new lift off with the Kite!
