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 ❤

We had a Full Moon at 28 Virgo last Saturday. It sparks off a week of organization and assimilation. I view Virgo as the sign of the High Priestess, inspiring us to own our power, and living in our authenticity. With Virgo we get REAL and accept what life has given us. The problem though, is Virgo’s ruler Mercury is currently wallowing in Pisces. He’s unable to express himself there, and his quickness gets watered down with dreams and intuition. So yeah, there may not be a lot of clarity this week. It’s a balance between taking care of business and trusting our intuition.

But the BEST news is that Venus turned DIRECT right after the full moon. This brings a new chapter of love and money into our lives. If things have felt “off” over the past couple of months, we now have a new clarity and direction. Follow the truth you’re finding now, and take a step towards freedom. Last Saturday’s full moon can heal self-doubt and heartbreak, and offers true closure on relationships, ideas, and contracts when it’s for the highest good.

Venus turning Direct and becoming the Morning Star is symbolic of rebellion, and it only occurs once every 18 months. The weeks ahead are when Venus reaches her brightest luminosity, and she will dominate the morning sky.

And as a reminder, ALL the planets are Direct now! You can make real progress with this forward motion. The Moon, however, is squaring almost every planet this week, so emotionally we are running a gauntlet of different relationships and situations.

Full Moon Eclipse at 27 Leo sidereally, occuring at 11:55pm Pacific TONIGHT!
Prepare to be liberated.

A Full Moon at the end of Leo often represents a life full of happiness and joy. Leo, ruled by the Sun, follows his heart and connects with creativity. It’s a joyous time, and the perfect night to see electrifying musical or artistic performances. However this Full Moon is exactly opposite Saturn, which means we also need to be hard-working and sincere with our work. Saturn maintains a strict discipline, including cleanliness and neatness. You will never find clutter on his table. 

Some ancient peoples say that being outside with an eclipse is not a good thing. This is because Ketu – symbolizing the past – will be moving across the Moon. It’s the shadowy tail of the cosmic dragon, and it brings up past uncertainties, the unseen, and ancient karmas. If we are ready, it gives us the power to face our past and make fundamental changes, releasing the dead weight of grievances and empty attachments. This eclipse is a portal, showing us how to release regret and heartbreak.

Tonight, this eclipse falls in a section of the Vedic sky called “Uttara Phalguni”. It’s symbolized by a bed, and represents relaxation, comfort, and rejuvenation. Mindfully use this eclipse to remove blocks to prosperity, friendship and noble virtue.

Also, Mercury is going retrograde at 14 Pisces tomorrow (Friday)!

Venus went retrograde last weekend. We are slowing down and looking backwards to old relationship patterns over the next month. Her retrograde cycle is actually an ancient process of transformation. Venus sinks in the evening sky, disappears in the Sun, then rises as the morning star a few week later. She comes down to earth to re-evaluate things. The Venus retrograde cycle comes once every 18 months, and manifests a powerful cycle of death and rebirth. We shed old ideals and think about what works for us in the present. We confront hard truths about love, money, and creativity.  When Venus rises as the Morning Star on April 12th, a new clarity regarding commitment and self-worth will also rise.

“According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms of enlightenment, just two indications that a transformation is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness.
The first symptom is that you stop worrying. Things don’t bother you anymore. You become light-hearted and full of joy.
The second symptom is that you encounter more and more meaningful coincidences in your life, more and more synchronicities. And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous.”
