The Sun, currently moving through Cancer, tends to strengthen our family ties and our sense of belonging to a clan or a nation, but it may also revive old resentments linked to the past or to beliefs that are not necessarily progressive! A touch of nostalgia, childhood memories resurfacing, increasing our tendency to think that “things were better before”? Starting on the 22nd, the Sun shifts into Leo! From the 23rd onward, it boosts our thirst for renewal, our desire to break free from routine paths, while also stimulating our imagination and, at the same time, our determination to build on solid ground (especially on the 24th)!Mercury, which will remain in Leo until September 2nd, begins its retrograde motion on July 18th! From that day on, some debates and negotiations may slow down or even become fruitless. However, don’t give up, on that very day, the "messenger of the gods" might well stimulate our mind and inspire a few brilliant ideas… worth remembering! The same goes for the end of the month (on the 31st), when our neurons may be firing in all directions, even if that doesn’t yet guarantee truly constructive discussions.
Venus leaves the sign of Taurus on the 4th, not without stirring up some intense emotions in the realm of love that very same day. It could just as easily be a love-at-first-sight encounter, the return of a burning passion, or a sudden realization that may lead to a breakup! From the 4th onward, Venus enters the sign of Gemini! While this sign is generally associated with lightness and playfulness, we should expect a somewhat more serious emotional tone! So, no flirting without consequences or creating without aspiring to give lasting meaning to what we build, even if the current context pushes us to speed things up (on the 6th)! Venus may intensify communication, fuel our passion and sensuality (on the 7th)! Caution is advised, however (on the 23rd), as tensions may arise if our connections begin to shift too much toward possessiveness or control!
Mars is moving through Virgo until August 7th but will only begin to make a truly significant impact toward the end of the month (on the 23rd), when the warrior planet could ignite explosive energy, personally, emotionally, and socially! Until then, it’s up to us to learn how to calm things down and channel emotions that may be running a little too wild on that day!
Jupiter, transiting through Cancer since June 9th, seeks to bring order so that we can live well (or better) within structures that protect us and offer a sense of security. In July, Jupiter won’t play a direct role in events, except perhaps by amplifying the temptation (or tendency) to withdraw inward, whether on a personal, national, or identity-related level.
Saturn, present in the sign of Aries since May 25, seeks to lay the foundations for a new life, a new society! If this austere planet is not hindered by external circumstances in its drive to move forward, the structures it builds will be solid. However, if it faces adversity, it may resist, refuse to adapt, and thereby block progress. In July, Saturn favors deep, substantial actions and supports commitments and initiatives based on strong foundations. So, this is no time for fleeting adventures, whether emotional, professional, or otherwise. We should only give in to temptation if it feels truly legitimate (especially around the 6th). Starting on the 13th, Saturn begins its retrograde motion and will leave Aries on September 1st. Until then, let’s try to integrate the lessons learned (and sometimes endured) since the end of May.
Uranus will remain in Taurus until April 2026 but will temporarily shift into Gemini from July 7 to November 8. A sudden yet persistent feeling of being caught between two worlds? This impression will likely solidify, pushing us to change our perspective on the world around us, to invent and innovate constantly, eventually leading to a more conscious understanding of our role and place on Earth. In July, Uranus plays with our nerves, and especially our emotions, starting on the 4th! We could just as easily fall head over heels for someone or get excited about a project as we could spiral due to a confusing event. Let’s try to keep our cool as much as possible that day! At the end of the month (on the 23rd), expect a burst of unrestrained creativity, with a flood of inventive and innovative ideas coming to the surface!
Neptune entered Aries on March 30 and will leave the sign on October 22. This first temporary passage is likely to leave a mark. In this bold and pioneering sign, Neptune could breathe new life into our ideals, but not necessarily without sparks flying! In July, Neptune’s influence in this fiery sign may help elevate discussions, inspire us (on the 6th and 24th), and bring a more spiritual approach to life and the future.
Pluto in Aquarius opens the door to everything, both the best and the worst! On one hand, it offers access to a world where technology and artificial intelligence could improve our daily lives (particularly in medicine). On the other hand, it raises the risk of becoming overly virtual, disconnected from ourselves, and vulnerable to abuse. Let’s remain masters of our creations, ensuring they never surpass us and only serve noble purposes. In July, the “lord of transformation” may stir intense feelings and emotions (on the 7th)! However, let’s be careful to avoid power struggles, which could prove destructive both personally and collectively (on the 25th).
Astrology: What You Need to Know
As the Moon moves at full speed in the zodiac (it travels approximately one sign in two days), we can't detail its evolution in our astral press review! However, its influence can activate sensitive points in the map of our sky... If you wish to know the Moon's position day by day, consult the ephemerides*, which will inform you about the daily position of the planets.
GMT (Greenwich time meridian): universal time to which you have to add (currently) for France one hour in winter and two hours in summer to determine at what exact moment the planet enters a new sign, crosses another planet, etc...
The planets in retrograde: The apparent movement of a planet that gives the impression that the planet stops and then starts again. This phenomenon actually results from the difference between the speed of revolution of the planet and Earth around the Sun. In astrology, a retrograde represents a force that works against the current. Generally, it corresponds to the internalization of energy. Sometimes, it means restraining evolution and recommends that the individual ask themselves about the work to be done to free themselves from the debts of the past or to exploit their potential more consciously!
Domicile of a planet: The sign in which a planet evolves in affinity (for example, Venus in Taurus). The planet then expresses its potential without constraint, freely and creatively...
