July 2025 astrology

Current SIDEREAL placements. Sidereal is different than traditional tropical astrology, because it’s based on where the planets actually ARE in the constellations:

Sun at 0 Cancer
Mercury at 20 Cancer
Venus at 18 Taurus (in her rulership, good for Venus Magick)
Mars at 21 Leo
Jupiter at 13 Gemini (in detriment, no Jupiter Magick now)
Saturn RETROGRADE at 7 Pisces
Uranus at 6 Taurus
Neptune RETROGRADE 7 Pisces (rulership)
Pluto RETROGRADE at 8 Capricorn
North Node at 25 Aquarius

The vedic astrological signatures for July are interesting, so much so I have to share what I’ve discovered! Let me know in the comments if you’ve found any of this happening in your life. The New Moon in Cancer will be Thursday, July 24th.

The strongest energy this month is occuring in the sign of Leo. Since everyone has Leo in their chart somewhere, it’s affecting you. In Jyotish, or Vedic astrology, both Mars and Ketu are sharp, fiery signs. They BOTH rule knives, needles… anything pointy. What does this mean? Everything associated with Leo right now is sharp as hell: creative projects, ideas, art, and performances will be amazing to watch since musicians and artists are sharply focused, unified, and on point.

However, the actions of Leo actually manifest in the sign of Libra, so this is a tough time for partnerships (Libra). There is sharp energy aimed Libra, which can cause fights and break ups in any type of partnership. Careful what you say to your partner right now. This energy will keep building until the conjunction of Rahu and Mars on July 20th. If you want to know how this specifically affects your chart, schedule a reading with me here.

Saturn and Neptune are stationing retrograde right now in a conjunction at 7 Pisces. This is a water sign, AND these two planets stationing (standing still) together are affecting the water element, as you’ve seen with the destructive floods lately. Right now it’s hard to find the edge between truth and reality, and many people are feeling lost. On top of that, Mercury is going retrograde in Cancer next week, further disturbing the water element. I you want a quick reading on how Saturn in Pisces will affect you over the next two years, and what you can do about it, book a reading with me here.

Be gentle with yourself and others ❤

Astrologically, the first days of July have been emotionally rough, and the best way through it has been to Feel our Feelings. The Sun is in Cancer which is the most emotionally sensitive sign of the zodiac. It directs our attention to unresolved family/home issues that need to be addressed and purged. Also, the Moon has been traveling through Scorpio the last few days – bringing up our deepest psychological knots to be healed. Mercury and Mars have been barreling through Cancer too, adding some extra urgency and heat. PLUS on Saturday, Chiron (the wounded healer) turned retrograde – activating the vulnerable place of old pain each of us carries. I mean seriously!! How much more can we take??!!

Be gentle with yourself this week, and take time for solitude if you need it. I do a lot of journaling during times like these, and often find nuggets of wisdom through reflection and dreams. As a wise friend once told me, “if you treat yourself like a precious jewel, everything will fall into place”. I find the deepest truths can be found in our recurring patterns. Is there something you need to sacrifice in order to release suffering?

 

 

Currently:
Mars opposing Pluto (the warrior faces Death, read this piece by Austin Coppock)
Mercury into Leo 5:20pm Pacific TODAY.
Full Moon in Capricorn this SUNDAY, July 9th (just work all weekend)
Venus in Gemini, Mars in Cancer (not happy) until July 20th.

So basically, next weekend could be the sequel to last… the Full Moon this Sunday is at the same degree as Pluto – so we will have a Full Moon conjunct Pluto which is also intensely emotional – but highly transformational. Pluto wants to help us rebirth ourselves by clearing out toxic sludge; it’s catharsis.

“Catharsis (from Greek κάθαρσις katharsis meaning “purification” or “cleansing”) is the purification and purgation of emotions—especially pity and fear—through art or any extreme change in emotion that results in renewal and restoration. It is a metaphor originally used by Aristotle in the Poetics, comparing the effects of tragedy on the mind of a spectator to the effect of a cathartic on the body.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catharsis
