July 2022
Aries – (March 20 – April 18) This month begins like a rocket ship launch – especially for you, Aries. Mars in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn on July 1st speaks to a time of tension and decisions being made on the world stage, and, it will also enter your life in some form. Personally, it’s about facing your fears. Pluto holds deep, dark secrets; Mars lights a fire. Take a stand, stake your claim, and you’ll be glad you did by August 1st.
Taurus – (April 19 – May 19) Venus changes signs mid-month, moving from Gemini to Cancer on July 17th. This works well for you financially; make plans the first part of July. The Capricorn Full moon is a powerful time for you. Taurus. This lunation lights up your 9th house of Higher mind and wisdom. Be alert for unexpected opportunities. You may have to work out some troublesome details, but the rewards are well worth any effort.
Gemini – (May 20 – June 19) Mercury, your ruling planet is super busy this month, which may leave you longing for some peace and quiet. Here’s the issue: Mercury is moving incredibly fast across the sky; speeding so quickly that he passes through all of Cancer in only 18 days – July 5 to July 18th. This can cause you to overlook important details and/or jump to (erroneous) conclusions. Best days this month for clarity are: July 2nd, 9th, 28th. Avoid arguments on the 26th, and plan for an amazing, good time on the 17th.
Cancer – (June 20 – July 20) This month begins with your sign in the receiving end from others. Here are some possible scenarios: Partners are grumpy (not your fault); clients have ‘issues’ and miss appointments (not your fault); children and siblings have expectations that you cannot possibly fulfill. This all gets better as the days pass, so don’t get mad, or frustrated – just remember the ‘not your fault’ part. You, Cancer, play it cool, calm, and collected.
Leo – (July 21– August 21) With the New moon of Jul 28th is in your sign, Leo – most of July is a preparation time for your annual fresh start. And, the stars are surely lined up for some new beginnings. Uranus, Mars, and the karmic North node all in Taurus are stirring the pot by making you restless. How? Where? And with whom? These questions and more will be answered in the upcoming months. For now, focus on your personal stamina. Saturn, retrograde until October 22nds is keeping your feet to the home fire, so to speak. Patience, Leo, patience.
Virgo – (August 22 – September 21) Nervous tension turns into health issues now, Virgo. It’s time to be extra mindful about what and how you eat, and for sure get plenty of rest. This is because Mercury is making up for time lost during his recent retrograde. Now Mercury is speeding across the sky. This can leave you feeling a bit under the weather, especially as Mercury enters Leo on July 19th. Expect vivid dreams and heightened intuition all month.
Libra – (September 22 – October 22) Yours is the classical sign of Balance, and indeed, this month will challenge your equilibrium. The two personal planets of love, Venus (attraction) and Mars (eros) are active and both are working their magic on your sign. Venus and Mars weave in and out of interaction with Libra. Mars keeps asking for compromises so, it’s going to feel like you don’t get exactly what you want. Be mindful of the need for negotiation, and then Venus sweetens the deal all month long.
Scorpio – (October 23 – November 21) July delivers a deep level learning time around relationships. Who would have known that insecurity in relationships is the Scorpio Achilles heel? People often think Scorpio’s are too much, but sometimes it feels like you’re not enough. The stars, however, are saying you’re just right. Mars in Taurus after July 5th comes in perfect timing to stir up any healing that needs to happen. Clear the slate, and get ready for some amazing and stellar times.
Sagittarius – (November 22– December 20) Jupiter, your planetary cohort is enjoying a stay in Aries, a fire sign comparable with yours. This elemental trine favors ease and flow, so, know that this works in your favor all the time. Otherwise, though, Jupiter is not really interacting with other planets this month, which can leave you feeling a bit flat. If you thrive on excitement, you’ll feel a bit bored this month. If, perhaps, you’re looking for some nice, lazy summer days with time in nature – you’re in luck!
Capricorn – (December 21 – January 18) Moon conjunct Pluto in your sign on the Full moon of July 13th heightens the intensity level. Saturn in your solar 2nd house puts pressure on your earning power; Neptune in your solar 3rd house leaves you wondering if you’re losing your mind… So, what to do. Your antidote to existential ennui comes through Mars, Uranus, and the karmic North node in Taurus, your most excellent and compatible solar 5th house. Creativity and play are 5th house activities, and it’s where you will find joy. Time for some fun.
Aquarius – (January 19 – February 17) If you’re feeling less ambitious than usual, and longing for some ‘me’ time, just remember that Saturn is retrograde in your sign until Oct 22, 2022. This is your moment for inner excavation; a time to examine commitments, and to really dig into what you want to change. Such deep introspection takes up a lot of energy, so don’t make too many demands on yourself. This month’s Capricorn Full moon of July 13th closes a significant chapter of your life. There will be emotional intensity, and also a great release.
Pisces – (February 18– March 19) The Universe signals a ‘go for it’ time this month, Pisces. The greatest obstacle you face is that of your own inner doubt. Jupiter in Aries, your solar house of earned income sits alone for most of this month. Although it’s good overall for your money, this may leave you feeling like there is no reason to expect a financial reward. Do the inner work, and know that this too shall pass. By month’s end you are energized and ready to do what is needed to put things all in place for abundance.
