The Boiling Point: Mars Ignites the Sky Kite

On August 6, Mars enters Libra and immediately locks into an opposition with Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries. This isn’t light tension. This is a pressure cooker. Saturn restricts. Neptune confuses, dissolves. Mars agitates. Together, they form a rare kite configuration that tightens across the sky. Mars will oppose Saturn and Neptune while trining Uranus in Gemini and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius. Uranus and Pluto also trine each other. This is a volatile arrangement, and it hits with precision.

Venus in Cancer: July 30 – August 25

Venus enters Cancer on July 30 and immediately squares Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Aries. That’s a harsh start to a transit that’s supposed to be about softness and security. Emotional needs are confronted by pressure, disillusionment, and an urgent sense that what used to feel good may not cut it anymore. This is the prelude to the school year, political season tension, and major questions about care, labor, and home.

Mercury Retrograde in Leo: July 17–August 11

Mercury turned retrograde in Leo on Saturday, July 17, and will stay there until August 10. Usually, we brace for the start of Mercury retrograde, the delays, tech issues, and communication breakdowns. But this time, the ending might be what stings most. Why? Because while Mercury prepares to station direct, it does so opposite Pluto in Aquarius, square a Mars-Saturn opposition, and under a Leo fire that doesn’t know how to stay quiet.

Full Moon in Capricorn – July 10, 2025

This Full Moon in Capricorn brings a culmination point around responsibility, structure, and personal authority. It’s not soft or sentimental. It’s mroe of a check-in on where you’ve held your ground or where it’s time to. Capricorn is about results, and this lunation highlights what’s been built, what’s crumbling, and what still matters when everything else is quiet.

This Full Moon is gently linked by sextile to the North Node, giving a practical but soulful thread between what’s real and what’s spiritually aligned. It says: be serious about what you’re dreaming. Be responsible about what you’re releasing. Some things require effort, some require surrender. You’ll know which is which.

Anna Wintour’s Nodal Career: Rising, Reigning, and Releasing with the Pisces/Virgo Axis

Anna Wintour has officially announced her retirement from Vogue, marking the end of a cultural era. For decades, she hasn’t only directed fashion, she defined it. Known for her precision, control, and ability to shape entire aesthetics with a glance, Wintour’s public presence has always been about more than style. It’s been about power, timing, and narrative.

And whether intentional or not, her career has been tightly linked to the Pisces–Virgo nodal cycle. This is the same one we’re living under now.

Mercury Enters Leo Today — Preparing for the Retrograde

Mercury enters Leo today, June 26, lighting up communication with more boldness, creativity, and heat. This is a confident Mercury: expressive, theatrical, and sometimes a little dramatic. But there’s a catch… Mercury will retrograde in this same sign starting July 18. That means the stories beginning now will loop back. The ideas you pitch, the messages you send, the things you say without thinking,some of them may need rewriting, reworking, or rethinking.

So instead of waiting for the retrograde scramble, start prepping now. This is your heads-up window.

Uranus Opposition for Elder Millennials (1981–1988): Midlife Is About to Get Loud

If you were born between 1981 and 1988, you’re standing at the threshold of a major life shake-up and it’s got Uranus written all over it.

Over the next eight years, Uranus in Gemini will begin to oppose your natal Uranus in Sagittarius. This is called the Uranus opposition, and it's one of the most defining transits of midlife. For your generation, this isn't just a private experience, it has collective themes, especially because so many of you have Uranus in Sagittarius, the sign of big truth, freedom, and ideological fire.

Jupiter Opposing the Millennial Capricorn Stellium: A Year of Growing Pains and Rebalancing

If you were born between (1988 and 1996 and especially if you were born between 1988 and 1991) this next year is going to stir something deep. Jupiter has just entered Cancer, a sign it thrives in. But for those with the Capricorn stellium: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and possibly the North Node all clustered in Capricorn, this shift won’t feel easy or breezy.

Instead, it could feel like someone is pulling on the very foundations of your life while asking you to grow at the same time. Because that’s exactly what’s happening.

New Moon in Cancer – June 25, 2025: Growing Something That Feeds You

This Wednesday, we welcome a new moon in Cancer, exact at 4°, tightly conjunct Jupiter in Cancer. This pairing is powerful. Both planets are dignified here, with the Moon in its home sign and Jupiter exalted. That means this lunation carries a rare kind of emotional intelligence: strong, nurturing, protective, and quietly expansive. But don’t expect instant results.

New moons are for setting intentions, not chasing outcomes. And with this one in Cancer, the work begins deep within, close to the heart, close to home. What you’re planting now won’t be in full bloom until six months from now, when we reach the full moon in Cancer in early 2026. That’s the long arc of this story. This is a seed moon. The work here is slow, steady, and inward-focused.

Mars Enters Virgo: Cutting with Precision, Not Fire

At 2:35 AM MST, Mars finally enters Virgo leaving behind the loud, dramatic flares of Leo for something sharper, cleaner, and more exacting.

Mars isn’t in its favorite place here. Virgo is about order, routines, and logic, while Mars is a planet of action, heat, and will. In Virgo, Mars has to operate with restraint. It's not exactly in detriment, but it’s definitely uncomfortable.

Jupiter Enters Cancer: Expansion Meets Emotion
Copper Marie Copper Marie

Jupiter Enters Cancer: Expansion Meets Emotion

On June 9, 2025, Jupiter enters Cancer, a sign it’s historically strong in. In traditional astrology, Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, meaning its influence tends to function powerfully here. Cancer deals with care, roots, safety, family, food systems, shelter, and emotional memory. Jupiter, planet of expansion and ideology, moves through this terrain with the desire to nurture at scale: to grow what feels secure, to protect what matters, and to deepen emotional bonds through shared meaning.

But this isn’t an easy, sentimental journey. Right out of the gate, Jupiter runs into pressure. From June 9 to July 1 2026, it enters a square with Saturn and Neptune in Aries, both of which are trying to define (Saturn) and dissolve (Neptune) the future direction of collective action. This square lasts for about a month and sets the tone for the first leg of Jupiter’s transit: emotional expansion meets existential tension.

Major Planetary Shifts: Saturn and Jupiter

Big sky shifts incoming!

Starting May 25, Saturn and Neptune meet up in Aries. This is about structure (Saturn) and vision (Neptune) coming together in the sign of action. It's a rare combo that can feel like pushing through fog: you're ready to move, but not everything is clear yet.

Then on June 10, Jupiter enters Cancer and immediately links up with Mercury. This brings emotional awareness, conversations about safety, home, and how we care for one another. But—this gentle wave meets tension fast, squaring off with that Saturn/Neptune combo.

💥 Translation? Big emotions. Big questions. A push to get real about what matters and what’s worth building next—even if the road isn’t fully mapped out.

More to come. Just know the next few weeks are not small.

Full Moon in Scorpio — May 12, 2025

This one is not subtle. The Full Moon lands in Scorpio at 22°, and it’s directly opposing Uranus at 26° Taurus. That alone tells you what kind of lunation this is: volatile, pressurized, and meant to trigger something that’s already been building.

If you have planets or angles between 18° and 26° of the fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius), you’re in range. This one will hit hard.
