We are one week into the month of July, and goodness does this month have a LOT of energies circulating! Here is Etheric's Astronomical Astrology forecast for the week of July 7th-13th:
👨🏽🏫 First, tracing the Moon’s orbit throughout the week and how that impacts us internally and emotionally:
🌛 The week starts off with us feeling a bit reserved, internal, observant, even secretive, with the Moon being in the Scorpius constellation. There may be a desire to connect intimately and physically with others, but will there be follow-through?
🌛 Moving through Ophiuchus, the Moon pulls us deeper into internal processes and offers revelation regarding things that need to be tended to, healed, nurtured.
🌛 Midweek, the Moon moves into Sagittarius and we have a Full Moon here, which pulls us into a more fun-focused, adventurous, playful state – be careful of being emotionally avoidant here.
🌛 In Capricorn later in the week, the Moon refocuses, getting clear on projects, goals, and work that needs to get done.
🌛 The week closes out with the Moon in Aquarius through the weekend, pulling us into a sociable, community-minded vibration.
👨🏽🏫 Next, some large key points for the week’s other planetary transits:
🪐 Saturn goes into retrograde orbit on Friday, in the Pisces constellation. It will stay retrograde through November 27th. When Saturn retrogrades, we can experience a slowing down with business, projects, and goals that we have set. This period of time can feel limiting. It draws our vision into a tunnel, and says, “This is what you’ll focus on.” It can be easy to fight this, and to try to force things outside of the tunnel to work or move or progress, but that is a futile effort and will only expend energy unnecessarily. In Pisces, Saturn’s retrograde orbit asks us to be practical and pragmatic with pursuing our dreams, and to release the tendency to live in fantasy more than reality.
☄️ Juno – the asteroid that represents fidelity, commitment, and more – comes out of retrograde orbit on Wednesday the 9th. In retrograde since March 18th, Juno has been highlighting lots of relational strife. For partnered peoples and anyone in any sort of highly committed relationship, the last few months have been presenting the question: “Do I want to stay in this? Is this relationship for me – for us? Am I going to stay committed to this? Does this partnership enrich both/all of us?”
☄️ As Juno exits retrograde, there is a large focus on personal sovereignty, revealing that the introspection Juno is asking us to take seriously comes with the question, “Am I able to be myself, or is there an element of control here that limits my authentic expression?”
☄️ Also, Juno enters regular transit in a challenging aspect to the asteroid Hygeia, which talks to us about personal health and hygiene – both energetic and physical. Are the relationships in question *clean* - or are they making us sick?
🤓 This week is interesting, because it offers us much-needed relief and a page-turn when it comes to partnered relationships, but it also leads into a very specific story that plays out over the rest of the year with Saturn. The next almost 6 months will really lock us into a specific set of focus points, projects, and opportunities, and will require elbow grease to get them moving.
