Things heat up in our sky as July gets underway. We are officially coming into the opposition portion of the year, which causes tension. Now that we are in the throes of Cancer season the Sun and Mercury are the first to step up to the plate, and they’ll be crossing paths with Pluto. This does not happen until July 18, while we’ll experience some profound transformation this week (or be forced into it) there are some prior movements. On July 5 Mercury moves into Cancer, and Mars moves into Taurus. While our awareness of our emotional needs increases, so does our desire to make progress. Talk about being between a rock and a hard place, Mars in Taurus can cause us to feel sluggish and weighed down.
The full moon in Capricorn on July 13 is an excellent time to boost morale and use your goals as motivation. Venus moves into sweet Cancer a few days later increasing our yearning for true and unconditional love. At this time we will certainly be heart-centered as Leo Season arrives on July 22. We must be brave under the Leo new moon on July 28, as we receive an uplifting new beginning. However, Jupiter goes retrograde in Aries on the same day so progress or growth may feel stunted for the next four months.
