Aries July 2023

July is full of magic and passion and you wake up to new financial support, with Jupiter ushering in a sweet deal between you and another. You can trust in this money arrangement lasting. July 22 – September 3, love planet Venus is retrograde, however, with its shadow appearing in June, so be patient when misunderstanding with partners. It’s because of what’s happening in the skies, it is affecting everyone, and the best thing for you: love wisely, sincerely and unselfishly; be less impulsive.

You might be reminded how unwisely you loved in the past, as ex lovers tend to pop up during a Venus retrograde. How much stronger and healthier you are now!

Materially, July is about home and property. Many of you will be thinking of renovation.

A prestigious full Capricorn Moon lights up your professional acclaim house Monday, July 3, and not only do you experience another brush with fame, you see the rewards of a recently-added life path.

Then, July is about you taking it easy and enjoying more.

And just see what gorgeous planets you’re hosting in your fifth fun house!

The current Leo Moon

Beauty and lovey Venus (retrograde July 22)

Sexy Mars

Wise Pallas

Brilliant Mercury after July 11

Your fifth house is ruled by Leo and covers creativity, kids, romance, love affairs and true love, galas, drama, performance, ideas – all that doesn’t include worry about your survival!

Your fifth house rules:

Falling in love
Creating and conceiving (your baby, whether it be your book or your literal spawn)
Enjoying yourself
Expressing warmth
Speculating, gambling
Risk-taking
Feeling romantic
Being playful
Entertaining, dramatizing, partying on a grand scale
Realizing the love you did get as a child, however you have judged it

And this is really how you will remember July – it will, despite everything, be a fun month. People will be taken with you left, right, and center. You – again – will be the flavor du jour.

Eliminate the unnecessary in your work for the happiest outcome. You might find, for example, that you’re doing too much, and better results come from you doing less!

There’s extra emphasis on your home right now, and many of you will be renovating, as well as buying or selling. Early family members are also much more in the picture than usual.

You’ve been working your darnednest – and now it is time to take a break. And then you breathe a whole lot easier…

And your emotions start feeling better.

So this July just settle down and do what you have to do. Attend to the details. Don’t aspire to change the whole world at this time.

Pluto’s transit through your tenth house is your year of graduation. You have learned something valuable about your life path – and possibly your career – at last.

You are reaching your own recognition phase. It will be a welcome relief. You can concentrate on what you want to concentrate on.

Let this time be easy, dear Aries – which may be the hardest thing for you to do – but this is what July needs to be. You will see!

Your energy and health improve, you are so much less burdened in all that you have to do, and a brilliant plan you’ve been hatching – possibly with a friend – is born.

And guess what? You won’t be able to control the results – don’t even try. As frustrating as this may be, do your best to embrace what the universe is bringing you. Remember, you’ve planted the seeds, you’ve done the work, and now it’s your turn to receive the consequent rewards.

A promotion and more money is forthcoming. Oh, what joy!

At times, you have felt that you have been putting your efforts out into a vacuum — why has response been so slow? – and now you will see that this has not been so. People have been appreciating you all this time.

Everyone has been, to some extent, in their own private Idaho, and fighting their own battles. My favorite quote addresses this – from Philo of Alexander – “Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.”

It is hard to be just alive sometimes. We all do our best.

But you have seen others rewarded, and it is difficult to keep going forward sometimes.

Now, you get your reward.

You’ll also hear from a person in your professional circle who has been difficult to pin down. He or she has been absent in some way, and it has been somewhat infuriating.

How secure do you feel? Are you able to have a place of retreat and calm in your home? Do you feel loved and protected?

Joy…when did you last feel joy? Really think. You have the ability to feel it every day. In a sky you see that is beautiful, in a loving word said by someone you love, in your amazing pets, in an accomplishment.

The best thing is when someone tells you they love you.

And why is that?

Aries, for all its bravery and confidence, is always scared that someone doesn’t like them. This is the secret chink in your armor.

We are going to heal this right now.  Save yourself thirty years’ worth of therapy! (But I still always support and advise therapy. I think it should be free for everyone.)

So starting NOW.

Take a deep breath. Deep. In.

Then, out.

Doesn’t that feel a bit better? Do it again. (Remember, you’ve had a lot on your plate.)

BREATHE.

This is less about your ego, than about your chosen lifetime (this time round) under your chosen ruler, Mars, the planet of war. Mars natives are warriors. You have passion – and some of it is for war. Of course, some people will not like you. You have people who are against you. You are a warrior!

You can fight anything you want. Let it be for a good cause – you’ll always feel better.

Love your Mars. Love yourself.

Now…the only remaining good tip on this is — choose your battles wisely. From your love partner who continues to frustrate you with his / her completely weird (ie. different) ways of doing things, to associates at work challenging you, choose your battles.

Please don’t resent anyone. Everyone really is doing the best they can.

It’s a tough time astrologically for everyone right now.

Planet of surprises (Uranus) is in your second house of finances, along now with lucky Jupiter. So you bring in money surprisingly, sometimes when you least expect it. This will actually be fun.

So, go easy Aries, on yourself, and let it come.

July will go down in the history books as the month you became super-clear about what this new era in your life will be. You’re blessed with razor-sharp vision this July – what has been foggy now becomes clear. You see your path ahead.

And it is a glorious one, dear Aries! Oh, I can’t wait – I am SO excited for you!

Happy Summer, Awesome Aries! I can’t wait to read you!
