July Overview

July 2010 Overview
Moving out of the NINE* month of June and into the ONE* month of July (in numerology* terms) we find the Solar Eclipse awaits us to bring the additional pairing of events that began at the Lunar Eclipse on June 26th. The Cancer / Capricorn opposition that began on the June 26th Lunar Eclipse, shifts the situations into intensity mode. We are prompted to make important choices regarding our sense of security. When we don't feel secure we flop around like fish out of water. Similarly with the changes that are happening in the outside world prompted by Pluto in Capricorn, we find our sense of security with the "familiar" even further out of reach. We can not base our sense of happiness or sense of security on the structures of the outside world, as the shifts and changes are blowing us one way and then another.

The fact that July is a ONE month requires that we set a new focus with a new purpose, approach, and direction. The new emphasis needs to have a foundation of security that is built upon the strength of our inner essence. The events surrounding the Solar Eclipse on July 11th bring in the options and opportunities to connect with that essence. This Solar Eclipse/New Moon opens the door for new energies to emerge. We are pushed to make choices that take us forward into new and unfamiliar territory. If our focus is aligned with our inner sense of security, then we begin to build and strengthen our connection.

Uranus in Aries turns retrograde on July 5th, which sets up events being blown into our life that assist in making the needed change and transitions. As the Solar Eclipse on the 11th open new doors, we will find that the ONE* month of July gives us a new theme, new purpose and new terrain to traverse. Making the changes begins right from the start and we have to find our inner essence of security or become like an out of balance washer.

Saturn moves into Libra on July 21st, which brings in the sign to complete the squares that require accountability in this transition process. With major signs of Jupiter and Uranus in Aries, Sun and Mercury in Cancer, Saturn now in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn, we have the grand square that intensifies the squares to push ourselves up the gigantic stairs (or that is how it will feel, especially those that have major planets in Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn).

Jupiter has been in the opposite sign of Aries and will turn retrograde on July 23rd, connecting with Saturn to provide the areas that we need to expand, bringing the issues of accountability to be brought into a positive light with the new events from the Solar Eclipse.

July 26th brings in the very, very important aspect of Saturn opposition Uranus, which has happened four times before. While Saturn has been in auditing Virgo and Uranus has been in Pisces, we had four major connections with the first one beginning the domino effect of the financial challenges we experienced in 2008. On the 26th, Saturn in Libra and Uranus in Aries require that a new sense of accountability be brought forward. The issues of Aries and Libra specifically bring scrutiny into personal responsibility and the ethics of personal choices, and personal actions. With Libra emphasizing fairness, equality and justice, and Aries emphasizing the responsibility of Self, (especially in positions of leadership), we will have a new level of accountability coming into the picture.

The responsibility of the Aries Self and the fairness of the sense of accountability and personal responsibility comes under great scrutiny. Many who have claimed immunity or have wanted to slough off their personal responsibility will begin to be the target of this Saturn/Uranus connection. Strong emphasis will be placed upon leadership and those who are in the positions of leadership and power. The mis-use and the lack of personal responsibility and ethics when making decisions that affect many will be called onto the carpet for major scrutiny. July 26th begins this process which launches a whole new auditing inspection process into place, which will last for the next several years.

June 27th through July 3rd
This week, June 27th through July 3rd, we are given the options to side-step the "upside down" elements and choose to pursue different pathways to get us into the right direction. These choices provide the test to see if we are moving through this passage of time. Familiar structures and the known aspects of life are turning upside down, requiring that make adjustments and shift life into a completely different direction. The tall requirements on Sunday, June 27th are also emphasized on Monday as Sun connects with Mercury to pull ourselves up by the bootstraps and get with the program.

The need to let go of the old environment and be ready and willing to make the transition and move into our new environment also requires that we shift out of staying in the "familiar" life and to make the shifts needed on an internal perspective. The importance of realizing that situations are different than what we are "used to" is the beginning to "get with the program". The focus is to determine these basic facts of our new environment and set our sites and goals into a revised approach to our life. From the beginning of the Lunar Eclipse on June 26th to the Solar Eclipse on July 11th, we will required to make important and key choices. The Lunar Eclipse expresses the Cancer / Capricorn opposition, with Pluto empowering the Capricorn elements of transforming the outer structures to reflect the real and true inner essence. The Solar Eclipse/New Moon in Cancer on July 11th requires that we base our sense of security on our inner sense of self and not on the outer structures.

This important requirement becomes the stepping stones that start this week, emphasizing June 27th & June 28th as Mercury opposite Pluto and Sun connecting to Mercury. Great realizations and coming to terms about our new terrain gives us a true map that is now our journey.

July 4th through July 10th
This week, July 4th through July 10th, we begin with a strong innovative and creative energy moving us into the new environment of July. The focus of July's events and the fact that it is a ONE* universal month (in numerology terms) prompts us to look at situations from a different perspective. We have to see situations as they are, not in comparison to the familiar, but see the situations from the perspective that the environment is changing and we are being ushered into a new direction. Uranus turns retrograde on Monday, July 5th, which brings our focus toward the beginnings of Uranus in Aries, shifting to a new generation of events. As we grope for the familiar to return, it is important to realize that we are being asked to let go of one sense of security and to move through situations. During this transition we cannot rely upon the outer security, otherwise we come into the facade that the outer environment precipitates security. The outer props and situations precipitates security only when we inwardly deem it to be so. The shift has to be to bring forward new definitions of security that are not based on outer situations, but has the constant in the inner focus. This allows the outside world to shift and allow the changes to blow and for us to not base our security on the prevailing winds within the outer world.

July 11th through July 17th
This week, July 11th through July 17th, provides the Solar Eclipse/New Moon at 19 Cancer. This Solar Eclipse begins the new themes emerging into our life, especially as Uranus in Aries has turned direct and requires us to adjust to the new environments that are being put into place. We see that Sunday opens the door to activate new creative energies that seem to pull in situations that have been waiting in the wings. The New Moon provides the Sun/Moon connection that ignites our new sense of purpose and our new beginnings. This activation of the Solar Eclipse provides a strong surge of changes into motion and brings us many new opportunities. Typically a New Moon opens new doors. However, we also have to be prepared for the scenario of the old, familiar ways are closed and so we have no option but to go into the new directions that are provided. These are challenging times until we remember that all is in God's hands and all is the way it should be. With this type of inner security we can begin to move forward in new ways with our new security in tact and an understanding that a new sense of purpose is emerging.

July 18th through July 24th
This week, July 18th through July 24th, we look at situations on a deeper level and continue to find the element that we connect with the most as the transitions into our new directions occur. We begin to set new goals and aspirations as we go through several series of changes mid week. Saturn moves from auditing Virgo to Libra's focus on fairness, equality and justice on Wednesday, July 21st. This shift becomes important in the generational transitions because Saturn requires answers and to become accountable to many series of questions of the mis-alignments that are present. Sun moves into Leo on Thursday, which becomes a powerful ally in the questioning process to get real answers. These questions become like a rapid fire machine gun, which spills into the next day. Reaching an overwhelming mark by early morning, Jupiter turns retrograde early on Friday. The amount of information that is quickly approach the height of tsunami waves keeps us all on the edge of our seats. Adding the elements that don't mix, we ask how all of this plays a part in the events of this time. Saturday Jupiter in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn. This aspect becomes the one that tosses us into the wall of pre-conceived ideas. The fact that Jupiter turns retrograde at this point gives us a chance to catch our breath and review all that has changed and all of the situations that are now presenting a different perspective. Integrating the new perspective into the current time becomes the challenging feat similar to putting a model ship into a bottle. How does this work?

July 25th through July 31st
This week, July 25th through July 31st, we begin with the Full Moon at high tide bringing forward the issues that we are dealing with from the weekend's rollover of circumstances. The Full Moon occurs on Sunday evening as Sun hits 3 Leo and the Moon hits 3 Aquarius. We have to review and update all of our definitions and concepts and bring them into the current times with the current events. Monday we are squarely hit with Saturn in opposition to Uranus. This aspect brings the accountability factor that we have been dealing with since October 2008 in the financial arena, mushrooming into an expanding frenzy. Mercury moves into auditing Virgo on Tuesday and brings with it a whole swat team. The fact that Mercury will retrograde from 19 Virgo back to 5 Virgo helps us to understand the importance of the issues that are emerging. The awe from the events of this time give us the pause to determine the path we need to take forward. Thursday Mars enters Libra, which helps us to choose the appropriate pathway that beckons us to the accountability pathway that is calling. Many will walk through the corridors of security checks and be able to board this time without a glitch. While others will become subject to delays that reflect the challenges that are emerging in their lives due to ethics and situations of the past. Friday, these delays turn into major obstacles as Mars is in opposition to Uranus. The ability to move through the check points of ethics and accountability become the theme of the new month of July and the expanding seven year-generation of Uranus in Aries.

August 2010 Overview
August is universally a TWO* month (in numerology* terms) and begins the transitions required to re-define our new direction, our purpose and our forward movement. The Jupiter square Pluto that occurred on July 24th will come back again on August 3rd. This gives us a new map and direction for us to follow. Squares are the stairs of events that seem challenging, yet move us into a new way of life.

Venus brings resolutions to Saturn's auditing process (August 8th) and to Jupiter's expansion process (August 9th). This is heightened by a New Moon on August 9th at 17 Leo. This aspect gives us the points on our map to move into our rightful direction that takes us into the direction that we need to be involved in. By August 13th, Uranus moves back into Pisces that shifts the events of accountability back to the time from 2003 in which the ethics of issues come into resolution.

The week of August 15th through August 21st becomes the movement similar to chutes and ladders in which some are able to climb ahead and others are subject to the rug being pulled out from underneath them. All is according to the specifics of destiny and to the transitions that are empowering the movements of this time. Jupiter is in opposition to Saturn on August 16th, bringing balance to the expanding qualities and Saturn's accountability process to allow that which is qualified to expand will be given one path of the ladders, and those that Jupiter finds lacking in accountability will step onto the rug that hides the chute that brings them back to the beginning points to re-align the ethics once again.

This is all closely guided by Saturn's emphasis as it is square to Pluto's transformation. Saturn requires solid stepping stones to be placed within Pluto's empowering transformations. Mercury turns retrograde on August 20/21st and we are able to begin, and we will be pushed to make the transitions that are needed. Accountability resounds.
