July is going to be a month of lots of new planetary movements, and with that a whole new direction will start to unfold.
Jupiter is going into Leo on July 15. Goodbye to the watery Cancer (and the sign of the USA) Hello the fire of Leo the fixed and will have conflict with Saturn still in the fixed sign of Scorpio. This will bring much more stress and crisis. While Jupiter was in Cancer with its trine by sign Saturn in Scorpio. That is over.
Saturn will go direct on July 21 and the whole judgment and evaluative energy of this planet’s concerns with the true shape of practical reality will become impassioned. Old diplomatic agreements will be dashed and the struggle to find order out of the ensuing fracturing of protocols will mean hard agreements will be hammered out the old way, fighting. Saturn and Jupiter in conflicting signs will make things happen like earthquakes of conflicts.
On July 17, Uranus goes retrograde and will pass over the old 13 degree point of the cross and again square Pluto in Capricorn. The final bang of that fabled square. More unstable energy to add to a configuration that is all ready deeply troubled.
Still, if you are a fire sign, the prospect of Jupiter in fire will work well for you and your luck will improve. Later degrees of water signs will also find something to anticipate. Saturn all be in trine to the later degrees of Scorpio will give some personal projects for water sign people a real boost.
Mars will go into the sign of Scorpio and march through Sagittarius and Capricorn and then to Aquarius by the end of December. Water, Fire, Earth and Air. The energy of Mars will be more muted than the long time spent in Libra during the retrograde and its role in the cardinal cross. It will make for a propelling energy, but will not be as dramatic in its impact.
