Astrological monthly forecast July 2021
The first half of the Metal Ox is now behind us…..
Everything that was prepared last year in the Year of the Rat will be gradually worked out in 2021 and forms the stable basis for a greater transformation next year, the Year of the Tiger.
As a society, we are going through a lengthy process of reforming our values and goals, all amid an ongoing pandemic.
This month, we see prudent confidence, recovery and growth.
July 2021 is a month in which decisions are made, such as the breaking of professional partnerships and other forms of relationships.
Throughout 2021, the planetary tension between Uranus (the collective) and Saturn (the controlling government) forces us to choose to act, to rebuild on what once was, to make room for the enduring social, cultural and global progress.
Our collective energy field needs to be cleared and healed so that we can move forward together in the new reality.
The Lunar Node in Gemini urges us to become acquainted with and live by the new reality, not avoiding it or fearing it. It encourages us to look both outwards and inwards and to work together. Seeing possibilities instead of difficulties.
Jupiter is retrograde in Pisces and will remain in Pisces until the end of July 2021, contributing to the awareness of how an intuitive and heart-centered view is needed in restoring and building our health, economies and our own lives.
Jupiter was in Pisces from May 13, 2021 and that was a time to get inspired or see what you haven’t seen before.
July 2021 is therefore a favorable period for introspection, retraining, re-examinations and postponed travels.
The first week of July 2021 shows a tense atmosphere in many forms of relationships as Venus and Mars in Leo form sequential tension aspects with retrograde Saturn and Uranus in Taurus.
Discontent in the world around us leads to protest, turmoil, upheaval and revolt.
We are concerned and uncertain about the future and what is about to happen.
Conflict situations arise from a lack or inability to communicate, fear of letting go or inability to walk the middle path.
The New Moon in Cancer on July 10, 2021 forms a beautiful aspect with Uranus in Taurus, but this Uranus in Taurus is under great planetary pressure due to Venus in Leo. Themes related to love and money can come under a lot of pressure during this New Moon.

On July 12, 2021, Venus and Mars will form an exact conjunction in Leo!
After Sunset Venus and Mars merge, joined by the Crescent Moon in Leo.
With the naked eye, this beautiful conjunction is clearly visible. Mars and Venus are then only separated by a space equal to the width of a Full Moon!
Until July 22, 2021, the conjunction of Venus and Mars in the extroverted Leo is the inspiring cosmic heart centered source both individually and collectively.
Venus and Mars will remain in proximity throughout the Summer of 2021, which is good news for cultural and music festivals!
From July 12, 2021 to July 28, 2021, cosmic Messenger Mercury travels through Cancer and that is the soothing factor of July 2021. Emotions then play a role in decision-making, a period of subjectivity, fantasy and humor.
After a mostly quiet interlude, the Sun in Cancer will be opposite retrograde Pluto in Capricorn on July 18, 2021.
The Sun is the Light of consciousness. Pluto in Capricorn symbolizes deep-seated problems.
An opposition is an aspect that has to do with consciousness. A Sun/Pluto opposition only happens once a year and offers us the chance to shed light on our shadow sides.
When the Sun in Cancer opposite retrograde Pluto in Capricorn, we face tensions centered on home, family and household problems.
Only if people can show respect for each other and show their vulnerability (Cancer) can complicated problems be solved without rancor.
The Full Moon in Aquarius of July 24, 2021 demonstrates a strong need for personal freedom and independence from anyone or anything. We can make progress with everything we have committed ourselves to, especially the projects of a humanitarian nature are rewarding.
But as it always goes in the universe, on the other side we see things falling apart.
In addition to unexpected events, something that has been hidden comes to light.

The May 26, 2021 Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius and the June 10, 2021 Solar Eclipse in Gemini reflected the interplay between “truth” or wisdom.
As the energy of these Eclipses continues to unfold, there is a growing awareness that no form of news distortion, fake news or media manipulation can obscure the essential truths of life.
More and more, news facts are collectively criticized and questioned, but also vice versa, freedom of the media and of expression are being reduced.
From July 29, 2021 to December 28, 2021, retrograde Jupiter will return to Aquarius again.
The combination of Jupiter’s retrograde and the square between Saturn and Uranus is particularly profound. It may feel like events from 2020 are repeating itself.
Partly due to the influence of the Eclipses, we get a recurrence of problems, challenges, information sharing and our different interpretations of “truth”, what is true and what is not.
Jupiter and Saturn are large planets with an even greater astrological influence.
Jupiter and Saturn embody the rhythm of culture and history. The 20-year cycle of Jupiter and Saturn is an important factor in mapping economic-political trends. Jupiter/Saturn in Aquarius sets the tone for the next 20 years.
Jupiter and Saturn form in the second half of 2021 a tension square with the revolutionary Uranus in Taurus, leaving the world politically and tectonic plates restless all over the world.
Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius show the growth of a data economy that delivers big profits, new connections and relationships, new partnerships, technological growth, inventiveness and innovations in science, new philosophies for the good of the community, new forms in the education, new ways of communicating through technology to learn and grow, but also the growth of genetic engineering and technological innovation without being aware of its consequences.
The focus of Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius is on social reform, group goals and the ‘we’re all in this together’ image of a society facing a global crisis.
The sign of Aquarius carries an interesting polarity of desire for greater freedom of expression in all areas, including gender expression, artistic expression, animal welfare and individual expression.
Jupiter and Saturn together in Aquarius are paving the way for the growth of collective consciousness and into a more evolved state of Being.
Younger generations will be more open to differences and more aware of our interconnectedness with each other, the Earth and all living things, like animal welfare.
With Jupiter in Aquarius we grow, personally and collectively, in the realization that as a society we are part of something much bigger, our planet Earth and the cosmos.
Jupiter will remain in Aquarius until December 29, 2021 to “finish the job” with Saturn.
Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius, and soon Pluto in Aquarius from March 2023 to 2044, call on us to think globally and act locally and ask society to explore how we can save our ecosystem and realize a safe world for everyone without to suppress the freedom of the individual.
This month and during the Summer of 2021 there is a major increase in migration flows, many are also moving or leaving hearth and home to settle elsewhere.
Change helps us to continue an evolution.
Transformation is inevitable, but which way that change goes is up to us.
Transformation is also evolution.
The Summer of 2021 presents a troubled picture, so it is advisable to be patient, not lose sight of goals, simplify situations and problems, clarify and put things in order.
Don’t let fear control you and embrace this special time.
