Astrology July 2020
ARIES Your Ruling Planet, Mars, is set for a six month mission, starting in July & going through to the new year. You’ll have some extra fire power to blast your way through anything you set your mind to, so what’s your next big thing? Forward motion for now with some revisions expected September through November, but those will only serve to refine your projects & make them even stronger. The challenge in being so dynamic will probably be in getting others to keep up with you! You’ll need to muster patience & diplomacy at times, the saying “You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar” comes to mind. Aside from this, it’s go, go, go time & an opportunity to reach far. Fire up!
TAURUS With the World being such a mad place right now, it would really benefit you to schedule in & work on some new “private project”, which allows you some space of your own & time to reflect. If your nervous system has taken a few hits lately, the way to unbuckle yourself will be more along the lines of meditation & yoga rather than pushing through, full steam ahead. Your energy levels might be running low, so taking Me Time, nurturing yourself & adopting a philosophical view is the way to go. Coming from a place of trust & faith that everything IS heading the right way, even if at times it appears to be going backward, is about what’s needed! Garden, get your hands into the earth, or at the very least commune with nature in your own way. What will be will be, Ommm.
GEMINI If you’ve been dealing with some relationship tensions & revisions, that’s all set to start smoothing out & harmony is on the horizon again! The next few months, in fact probably for the rest of the year, you’ll find you’ll be expressing yourself well within groups & with your associates… you’ll be able to come up with some brilliant new ideas & practices which benefit everyone. The first half of the month may start slow, but watch out after that! New faces & new places should offer themselves up with your networking skills coming to the fore, Regardless of the World still being a crazy place for a while yet. You’re likely to feel inspired & intrigued with the shifts & changes we’ll see. Innovate & you’ll find ways to turn events in your favour, Gemini.
CANCER This month & indeed for the rest of the year, that reputation of yours is likely to speak well for you & stand you in good stead, especially at work. We could all use some extra fire power there & much of the hard work you’ve put in this year is set to pay off for you! Striking a work life balance will be needed, but the folks at home could use an independence test, so now’s a great time to invest more into your career & future goals. Play observer to World events & stay well away from fear mongering & doomsday opinions! Leaning on your beautiful spiritual side, believe there’s a higher & good purpose to all the crazy. This’ll help you stay cool, calm & collected & those around you will benefit from that too.
LEO The next few months should see you stepping up into a higher perspective & seeing a few beautiful possibilities appear before you, Leo! Even through lock down madness, you’ll have had a few doors open for you & the next six months will see you further nurture & develop recent projects & connections with your usual flair! It’s a great time to start learning something new, so it’s beneficial to start setting your intentions now. Revisions from September through November are likely, but they’ll serve to iron out wrinkles & get your footing even firmer. Life is expanding, even if it’s only your theories & philosophy on life that’s changing. Higher meaning is everywhere when you look for it, Leo.
VIRGO Virgo, this month you’ll probably be feeling the more serious side of life, as are we all! However for you guys there’s an added depth & you’re not likely to suffer fools around you gladly. Any re-boots for financial re-arranging you’ve been looking into should start to take form & set you up well in coming months. If you’ve been looking for assistance with loans or legal matters, you’ll see some robust action there & it should be favourable! You’re more “behind the scenes” or esoteric side is lit up, so you’ll prove ultra intuitive to the motives of those around you & you may find some of your own subconscious patterns coming to light for assessment. Make sure you’re getting quiet time & doing something creative to get your mind off things. Eating well & sleeping enough will see you through.
LIBRA This month & in going forward for the rest of the year, your partnerships & relationships will come more into focus. As things have been up in the air for a while & we’re all out of our usual patterns & routines, you’ll have a chance to re balance alliances & perhaps to end up with a better amount of give & take. Everyone needs to be doing their fair share & though you’re not usually fussed in picking up more of the slack yourself, you might find yourself a little short fused & expecting a bit more from people. You’ll have opportunities to even things out, though your hot headed reactions at times might surprise you! If you get riled up, give yourself a cooling off period before weighing in & things should work out just fine.
SCORPIO Your Co-ruler Planet, Mars, is setting sail for a six month period that’s asking you to reassess & address the structures & routines that underpin your daily life. There’s been a bit of that lately, but obviously the Universe thinks there’s more to do! Though recent shake ups may have been a pain, if you use the energy wisely, by the time you land again, you can turn everything around into a far more streamlined & beneficial existence! Put some extra effort into health & exercise, you’re running a marathon, not a sprint & take a peek at your stress management strategies while you’re at it. People may be hell bent on pushing all your various buttons & though you always keep your cool on the outside, your inside can always use some Netflix & chill time, so take it.
SAGITTARIUS The Planet Mars, God of War, is causing us all a bit of a headache & will be poking & prodding many over the coming months. As far as things go though, for your Sign at least, you’ll be able to apply much gusto & fire power toward romance & your creative self… not so bad, eh?! You’ll find your entrepreneurial side catches fire too & ideas & fun ways to make a crust are likely to abound. Your enthusiasm should be catchy, so you’ll be able to insprie those around you & if you have any humanitarian interests on the go, they could sorely use your focus & talents to be able to progress & kick goals. Set some intentions for where you’d like to find yourself next year (we’ll blink & it’ll be here!) & get cracking with the set up.
CAPRICORN Hearth & home are set to be a big focus this month & indeed for the rest of 2020. If you’ve set up camp & been working from home, things are likely to catch fire & you’ll be able to achieve one Hell of a lot! This is great news because you always work so hard, but due these crazy times, you may not have seen much fruit for your labour yet. At the same time, home is also the place for much family hustle & bustle & if you’ve wanted to rearrange things or renovate, this is also your time. Factor in revisions September through November, but following that, you’ll be seeing projects to their successful conclusion. You may be a little accident prone however, so take care & keep your mind on whatever is at hand. As always, err on the side of safety & all will go well.
AQUARIUS Even if we’ve been locked up. There’s a lot of focus for you on getting out & about. Any of your local area & neighborhood humanitarian collectives & interests will be hives of activity & if you’ve any pet projects that haven’t seen much action lately, they’re about to take off again too. You’ll have lots of fresh ideas & inspiration… tweaking & adapting everything will pay dividends over the next few months. Close friends & siblings might take up a fair amount of your time as well, but it should be enjoyable. Have you taken on a short course or some form of extra education/ training lately? If so, you’ll get ahead in leaps & bounds with whatever you apply yourself to. Many of you are political animals & the World Stage will offer up brain fodder galore. You’re unlikely to run out of food for thought any time soon!
PISCES Looks like you have some money coming your way Pisces! This could be from extra work or hours you’ve been putting in, or if you’re looking for a change of path/ vocation, opportunities should come toward you over the next few months. You’ve probably been re-evaluating who your are & your place in the World & hopefully, you’ve recently had events happen which have proven your worth to yourself, as well as others. Often Pisces is a little taken for granted because you don’t like getting out there & banging your own drum! Things are about to change though, as long as you’re standing up for yourself & expecting what you’ve worked for & deserve to come your way! Your empathy & compassion are sorely needed in this World, give freely but take good care of yourself first.
For those of you who track the path of the Moon, I’ve included the Date, Time, Sign & Degree of both Full & New Moons:
FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE: Sunday, July 5th, at 14:44 @13 Degrees of Capricorn.
NEW MOON: Tuesday, July 21st, at 03:22 @28 Degrees of Cancer.
*Moon info is based on local time (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia).
Typically, we read Astro Information based on our Sun Sign, however you can gain much better insight if you read for both your Sun, Rising (or Ascendant) & Moon Signs. You can ascertain these by going to a free Chart calculator (there are many on line now!) & entering your own personal information. Usually, we’re asked for our time of birth & it can prove a sticking point if we don’t know it! If you don’t know your exact time of birth, enter Noon (12:00pm) where asked, & this will serve as a “happy medium”. Take the time to do this (you’ll only have to do it once, not every month) & note the Sign of your 1st House & your Moon Sign. They’re often different from your Sun Sign, but knowing this “trifecta” offers information that’s deeper & more relevant to who you really are. This way, Astrology will start to make a lot more sense to you, personally.
