This Week’s General Astrology Forecast
The week starts off with the Aries Moon Sextile to Venus in Gemini and Trine to Mercury in Leo. Great energy for connecting and socializing with others.
The celestial weather shifts to tense skies as the Aries Moon reaches Last Quarter Moon Phase and forms a T-Square with Jupiter in Libra, Square Pluto in Capricorn, conjuncts Uranus and Square in Mars in Cancer. The promise early can turn tense through the first part of the week.
Look in your natal chart to find out what house the Aries Last Quarter Waning Moon on July 18th is located to find out what area of your life may be effected.
Often the Quarter Waning Moon leading up to the New Moon you get an opportunity to release mental attitudes, or things that may prevent you from fulfilling the promise of the New Moon for a fresh start initiated two weeks ago.
Your New Moon seedings reach their first stage of growth at the Full Moon (see Meaning of the 12 Houses below). This monthly cycle repeats itself until six months from a particular New Moon there is a Full Moon in that same sign which is the Birthday Celebration when birthing your New Moon wishes reach their greatest fulfillment for the year.
BEST MONEY DAYS this week are July 18th and 19th (before 12pm PT best).
Best Money Days are days when the collective celestial events bring greater than usual opportunities. This may not translate into direct and immediate cash in your pocket, but potential for increase in your future prospects. Of course when these days are talking harmoniously with your personal stars the increase multiplies exponentially.

Astro Energy Report Highlights
All dates are at exact peak of intensity when energies begin to culminate and wane. If you have personal planets or points within 1-2º orb of an aspect that’s occurring between planets then you will feel that celestial even more strongly.
On July 17th Venus at 14º Gemini perfects its exact Square to Neptune Retrograde in Pisces which will remain active as an influence until week’s end. Squares present you with opportunities to make adjustments. There may be disappointments. What you thought would happen may not materialize. There can lies and deception, or disillusionment with Squares between Neptune and Venus. Look in the houses where both planets are located to find out what area of your life may be effected.
On July 17th Mars at 28º Cancer exactly perfects its Square to Uranus in Aires. Maybe a sudden unexpected change occurs and there’s seems an urgency for taking action. The energies feel hot and fired up though the Moon having entered the sign of Taurus may help settle the energy and slow things down. The sense of urgency passes.
The Squares operating between Venus and Neptune and Mars and Uranus occur when the Aries Moon has moved into the sign of Taurus. The earthy moon’s energy is not as easily excitable and can help settle any upset.
On July 18th Venus at 15º Gemini Trines Jupiter in Libra. Again these celestial energies are working in synchrony with the Venus Square in Neptune which is Quincunx to Jupiter. The way the energies play out will be unique and individual to you. Look in your natal chart to see if you have any personal planets or points between 13º to 16º. The energies playing out now will have the most effect on planets or points within those degrees in any sign, especially the mutable signs (Pisces, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius). Your mental attitude will help you make the most of what’s occurring now. Be adaptable! The Taurus earth moon is fixed, so watch for being stubborn and resistant. This aspect may challenge you to amp up your level of maturity. You’re stronger than you think. If you are one of those being tested now know you have what it takes to step-up and rise above any challenges.
On July 19th exact at 12:16pm PT Mercury at 22º Leo is Trine to Saturn in Sagittarius. Mercury is about to enter its Mercury Retrograde Shadow on July 24th. Great aspect for grounded communication and bringing things into form, signing agreements and contracts is favored now. Mercury and Saturn are also forming a loose Grand Fire Trine with Uranus at 28º Aries.
On July 20th Mars enters the sign of Leo until Labor Day, exact September 5th day before the Pisces Full Moon. Your energy and action is focused on things related to the sign of Leo. Interests include having fun, taking vacations, creative self expression, children, investments, money and romance.
On July 20th the Sun at 28º Cancer is Square to Uranus in Aries. Sudden tension, or tensions that have been building suddenly peak. This is breakthrough energy. You’ll want to break free of restrictions and limitations. The Square is in a loose Grand Cardinal Square to Pluto in Capricorn and Jupiter in Libra.
Jupiter will enter it’s controlling position with Pluto as soon as it passes its final exact Square to Pluto on August 4th.
Jupiter is coming to its final exact Opposition to Uranus on September 27th.
Once Jupiter has moved past its exact opposition to Uranus it will be the #1 planet of the zodiac that has the most controlling position of influence on all other planetary bodies.
This means that Jupiter will operate as the most controlling influence on collective events occurring in the world.
Remember Jupiter is a Fire Planet and Expands whatever it touches. This can mean we may experience more extremes for better or worse while Jupiter is in it’s controlling planetary position.
Generally to know which planet is in a controlling position simply note its position relative to other planets. If a planet is coming up from behind a planet it is exerting a controlling influence on that planet.
VOID OF COURSE MOON PERIODS
The moon represents your emotional needs. Your emotions fluctuate with the moon as it moves through its 28-day cycle around the zodiac from new moon to full and back to new. Notice how the moon’s placement in the zodiac affects your mood and emotions. Essential oils can help stabilize your mind and emotions. Generally earthy scents have the most harmonizing and stabilizing effects on the emotions.
These are great periods for taking it easy and going with the flow of events and completing projects. During Void of Course Moons your emotional body is going through a period of processing and integrating your recent experiences. You naturally clear out your emotions during these periods. Doing things that helps with this natural process are especially helpful now, i.e. relaxation, yoga, movement, hot baths with sea salts and essential oils, focused breathing.
Void of Course Moon Phases are not good for starting new projects, or launching new ventures, or having meetings (if you want to achieve anything), or signing contracts and making agreements as it’s less likely anything will come of any agreement, or it will be sluggish and slow to start.
For your New and Full Moon Rituals make sure the Moon is not Void of Course and in aspect to another celestial body when doing your ritual for best results.
- On July 16h we have a 3 hour Void of Course Moon from 7:19pm PT to 10:04pm PT when the Aries Moon moves into the sign of Taurus.
- On July 18th we have a 1 hour Void of Course Moon from 11:11pm PT to :31am PT on July 19th when the Taurus Moon enters the sign of Gemini.
- On July 20th we have a 2+ hour Void of Course Moon from 10L40pm PT to 1:09am PT on July 1st when the Taurus Moon enters the sign of Gemini.
