Often when we walk along a very long road, with no environmental change, or even any signs on the highway, we assume our journey is endless and not likely to change anytime soon. That’s an illusion, and you will see the truth of this in July, everyone’s favorite month of the year. First, an entire slew of planets have been retrograde since 2014 began, holding back everyone, including you. Mercury, ruling contracts, agreements, and all buying and selling, will go direct on July 1. Saturn, the planet of stability, responsibility, and power, will go direct on July 20, having been out of phase since March 2. If you have been looking for a new and exciting career position that is right for you, to no avail, this change of Saturn and Mercury should be a big help to your efforts.
Something else is about to radically and positively changing your picture. Mars has been in Libra since December, but will now move into Scorpio on July 25 to stay until September 12. As a result, your tenth house of career will light up brilliantly. As frustrating as 2014 might have been so far, you are looking at an entirely new set of circumstances. Soon, in the weeks prior to mid-September, you may get positive publicity, be asked to judge a contest or an important industry speech, or be offered a promotion or new position. If you already took a new position (very likely in mid-May), then the industry will hear about it now. By the eclipse of October 23, you may find yourself in a whole new professional setting. Use this energy to your advantage!
Also new this month will be the final tour of Jupiter, the great good fortune planet, of your sixth house of work and health, set to leave by July 17. You likely had superb projects to work on since June 2013, and no doubt if you gave them your all. Those projects will have a direct influence on how you are viewed now as you search for a new position. If you already have your new position, your experience on those recent projects since June 2013 will come in mighty handy now to help you create more successful programs and projects.
Also over the past year, Jupiter was in your sixth house to help you refine your health habits to become strong and healthy. If you had hoped to lose weight by relearning how to eat right, Jupiter will still be on call to help you accomplish the start of your new program until July 16. The new moon that appeared just days before the dawn of July, June 27, will help you on a wide variety of health matters. Make your routine appointments for screenings, and in regard to your exercise, choose a group fitness course. You may love to be outdoors, so in that case, you may get lessons on a new sport. In astrology, the date you begin your program is the date you plant the seed. Focus on all health and fitness matters in early July. It will be a far better time to begin than January, when it seems everyone else starts. If you did, you had no planetary backup - now is the time to begin.
When Jupiter moves to your opposite sign of Leo on July 16, you will enter nearly thirteen months that are considered perfect for marriage. If you are single and dating, by the time this trend is done, August 11, 2015 next year, you may be sporting an engagement ring or already married. If so, the coming months will be the considered the best time to commit your love in over a decade.
This month is special for marriage - on July 24, we will all have the best, most fortunate day of the year, thanks to the meeting of the Sun and Jupiter, an annual event. This year these two leaders of the solar system will meet in your marriage house, an ideal day to get engaged or married. Jupiter has not brightened this part of your chart since mid-2002 to mid-2003.
If July 24 does not work for you, only two days later, we have the new moon in the same area of your chart, July 26, spinning almost two weeks of great luck for the same purpose. When it comes to the “M” word, Aquarius is holding all aces. If you are already wed, you both will grow closer, and perhaps choose on a new life’s goal, such as to buy a house or to have a baby. Jupiter brings all kinds of growth, all of it filled with loving goodness.
This same energy can be put forth to cement a business alliance this month. If you would like to hire an expert, like an agent, publicist, or lawyer, do so on the luckiest day of the decade for collaborations, July 24, or plant seeds for your coupling during the week that follows July 26.
Dear Aquarius, as you see, everything changes in July!
