In July, Jupiter (going direct July 10th), Saturn, Pluto, Neptune and Mars are Retrograde.  The is also a Solar Eclipse July 12th and a Lunar Eclipse (July 27th) this month

The New Moon on Thursday July 12, 2018 at 20° Cancer is a partial solar eclipse.

https://astrologyking.com/solar-eclipse-july-2018-2/

A solar eclipse opposite Pluto (can intensify fears) but also indicates a desire to make a life changing transformation which at this time with the fixed star Castor (a time associated with breaking arms and legs and having a nervous breakdowns) is a time to make positive changes and not indulge in destructive habits.

A grand trine of Venus, Saturn and Uranus creates a planetary harmony which lessens the likelihood of a crisis normally associated with a solar eclipse opposite Pluto. The Venus trine Saturn is an auspicious time for relationship commitments and long-term investments. The Venus trine Uranus encourages us to try a different approach to our life. The Saturn trine Uranus is associated with dramatic but stable transformation for the better.

The full moon on July 27, 2018 at 4° Aquarius is a total lunar eclipse. (Blood Moon)

https://astrologyking.com/lunar-eclipse-27-july-2018-blood-moon/

The July 2018 lunar eclipse and Mars are located in the Head of the Sea Goat, Capricornus Constellation. (this location is associated with major storms at sea). A number of fixed stars in this region give patience and trust, but also emotional problems which will worsen the unbalanced emotions of the Moon and Mars square Uranus. This lunar eclipse will affect those born in the early 1940’s more when Pluto was in Leo.

Jupiter Retrograde March 8 at 23° Scorpio and ends on July 10 at 13° Scorpio

https://astrologyking.com/jupiter-retrograde/

Theme for this retrograde is detoxification and addressing issues that are holding back your personal and spiritual growth. This mismatching has the potential to affect your health. It is also affecting the ability in terms of wealth, love and good luck (Jupiter’s positive attributes) being able to manifest abundantly in your life.

The fixed star Unukalhai (rules the colon) pairing increases the likelihood of accidents and operations. Jupiter rules the liver. The Jupiter sextile Pluto (April 14, 2018) heralds success through positive change. (Facilitates the process of detoxification started on Full Moon of March 1st, 2018).

Saturn is retrograde in 2018 from April 17th to September 6th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/saturn-retrograde

Saturn rules the physical and psychological supports, structures and framework in our lives. During this retrograde any activities and commitments that are problematic can be restructured and long term commitments can be rearranged as activity slows down during this time. This is especially beneficial to those with Saturn in retrograde in their Natal chart where there is a tendency to say Yes when you shouldn’t agree to the terms involved. This tends to be in areas where Saturn is placed in the Astrological Houses. This is also not an ideal time to take on additional long term commitments.

Pluto is retrograde in 2018 from April 22nd to September 30th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/pluto-retrograde

This retrograde is an ideal time for concentration and seeing subconscious motivations.  The focus during this time is on the internal psyche and psychological issues that affect the body.  It can be a very healing time to recover from long term illnesses.  It is also a time to look at life patterns and revamp ways of thinking and attitudes that are unhelpful, especially in areas of personal power.

Neptune retrograde in 2018 starts on June 18 at 16°29′ Pisces and ends on November 24 at 13°41′ Pisces.

https://astrologyking.com/neptune-retrograde/

A grand trine aspect with Mercury and Jupiter and Neptune. This is a good time for spiritual quests for truth. Neptune retrograde strips away illusions and can show the source of the pain that you are trying to escape. This can be traumatic and shocking. Some healthy ways to deal with the stress of these revelations include Yoga, Tarot, Astrology, swimming and a healthy, toxin free diet. This a time where misdiagnoses are more likely, so second opinions should sought if needed.  Mercury trine Jupiter brings optimism and good news. Planning or setting off for long journeys are favored at this time. Negotiations, signing contracts and legal matters are also favored. Mercury trine Neptune stimulates your creativity, imagination, sensitivity and spirituality.  Poetry, Music, Dance and Drama that embody Harmony are enhanced at this time as well as psychic abilities and intuition.  Jupiter trine Neptune encourages hope, generosity and community spirit. Enlightenment can come through dreams, visions or meditation.  The fixed stars during this retrograde are associated with religious matters and promote business success (Sirius at 14°19′ Cancer) and artistic ability (Alphecca 12°33′ Scorpio) and happiness and success through good morals (Achemar 5°34′ Pisces)

Mars retrograde 2018 starts on June 26 at 09°13′ Aquarius Sagittarius and ends on August 27 at 28°36′ Capricorn. 

https://astrologyking.com/mars-retrograde/

Extra time is needed to take stock and make sure everything is in order before you continue. This is also a time of fated events that may trigger anger management issues. When Mars turns you direct you will be able to act on your desires.  Venus opposite Mars increases sexual tension and physical desires.  Release of this tension would benefit creative outlets of dance, sculpture and exercise.  Mars square Jupiter exaggerates or amplifies the sexual tension. Choose fights carefully and avoid rash actions. Sun opposite Saturn blocks self-expression, during this time so solitary activities that are goal orientated help cope with this type of blockage.

Happy Litha, Summer’s Solstice (June 21st)

The Full Moon on Tuesday May 29, 2018 falls at 8 degrees Sagittarius.

https://astrologyking.com/full-moon-may-2018/

This full moon emphasizes competition.  The Heart of Scorpion opposite the Eye of the Bull. Full Moon sextile Mars gives a passionate enthusiasm to work and play. Full Moon semisextile Saturn creates a difficult balancing act between ego gratification and heavy feelings of responsibility.  If you start a conflict at this time, be sure you are self confident, reliant and realistic about your chances of success. Battles lost at this time will require a lot of effort to recover from and determination.

The full moon on Thursday June 28, 2018 is at 6° Capricorn.

https://astrologyking.com/full-moon-june-2018/

Moon conjunct Saturn can bring challenging situations involving the home or your family that are made more difficult with Saturn’s tendency to negative attitude.  Saturn retrograde is a time of anxiety, fear and limitation and restrictions.  The Moon trine Uranus can help you to trust your intuition to liven up and lift the mood and break bad habits to free yourself from a negative environment.

In June, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto and towards the end of the month, Neptune (June 18) and Mars (June 26) are Retrograde.

Jupiter Retrograde March 8 at 23° Scorpio and ends on July 10 at 13° Scorpio

https://astrologyking.com/jupiter-retrograde/

Theme for this retrograde is detoxification and addressing issues that are holding back your personal and spiritual growth. This mismatching has the potential to affect your health. It is also affecting the ability in terms of wealth, love and good luck (Jupiter’s positive attributes) being able to manifest abundantly in your life.

The fixed star Unukalhai (rules the colon) pairing increases the likelihood of accidents and operations. Jupiter rules the liver. The Jupiter sextile Pluto (April 14, 2018) heralds success through positive change. (Facilitates the process of detoxification started on Full Moon of March 1st, 2018).

Saturn is retrograde in 2018 from April 17th to September 6th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/saturn-retrograde

Saturn rules the physical and psychological supports, structures and framework in our lives. During this retrograde any activities and commitments that are problematic can be restructured and long term commitments can be rearranged as activity slows down during this time. This is especially beneficial to those with Saturn in retrograde in their Natal chart where there is a tendency to say Yes when you shouldn’t agree to the terms involved. This tends to be in areas where Saturn is placed in the Astrological Houses. This is also not an ideal time to take on additional long term commitments.

Pluto is retrograde in 2018 from April 22nd to September 30th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/pluto-retrograde

This retrograde is an ideal time for concentration and seeing subconscious motivations.  The focus during this time is on the internal psyche and psychological issues that affect the body.  It can be a very healing time to recover from long term illnesses.  It is also a time to look at life patterns and revamp ways of thinking and attitudes that are unhelpful, especially in areas of personal power.

Neptune retrograde in 2018 starts on June 18 at 16°29′ Pisces and ends on November 24 at 13°41′ Pisces.

https://astrologyking.com/neptune-retrograde/

A grand trine aspect with Mercury and Jupiter and Neptune. This is a good time for spiritual quests for truth. Neptune retrograde strips away illusions and can show the source of the pain that you are trying to escape. This can be traumatic and shocking. Some healthy ways to deal with the stress of these revelations include Yoga, Tarot, Astrology, swimming and a healthy, toxin free diet. This a time where misdiagnoses are more likely, so second opinions should sought if needed.  Mercury trine Jupiter brings optimism and good news. Planning or setting off for long journeys are favored at this time. Negotiations, signing contracts and legal matters are also favored. Mercury trine Neptune stimulates your creativity, imagination, sensitivity and spirituality.  Poetry, Music, Dance and Drama that embody Harmony are enhanced at this time as well as psychic abilities and intuition.  Jupiter trine Neptune encourages hope, generosity and community spirit. Enlightenment can come through dreams, visions or meditation.  The fixed stars during this retrograde are associated with religious matters and promote business success (Sirius at 14°19′ Cancer) and artistic ability (Alphecca 12°33′ Scorpio) and happiness and success through good morals (Achemar 5°34′ Pisces)

Mars retrograde 2018 starts on June 26 at 09°13′ Aquarius Sagittarius and ends on August 27 at 28°36′ Capricorn. 

https://astrologyking.com/mars-retrograde/

 Extra time is needed to take stock and make sure everything is in order before you continue. This is also a time of fated events that may trigger anger management issues. When Mars turns you direct you will be able to act on your desires.  Venus opposite Mars increases sexual tension and physical desires.  Release of this tension would benefit creative outlets of dance, sculpture and exercise.  Mars square Jupiter exaggerates or amplifies the sexual tension. Choose fights carefully and avoid rash actions. Sun opposite Saturn blocks self-expression, during this time so solitary activities that are goal orientated help cope with this type of blockage.

Happy Beltane (May 1st)

In May Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto are Retrograde.

Jupiter Retrograde March 8 at 23° Scorpio and ends on July 10 at 13° Scorpio

https://astrologyking.com/jupiter-retrograde/

Theme for this retrograde is detoxification and addressing issues that are holding back your personal and spiritual growth. This mismatching has the potential to affect your health. It is also affecting the ability in terms of wealth, love and good luck (Jupiter’s positive attributes) being able to manifest abundantly in your life.

The fixed star Unukalhai (rules the colon) pairing increases the likelihood of accidents and operations. Jupiter rules the liver. The Jupiter sextile Pluto (April 14, 2018) heralds success through positive change. (Facilitates the process of detoxification started on Full Moon of March 1st, 2018).

Saturn is retrograde in 2018 from April 17th to September 6th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/saturn-retrograde

Saturn rules the physical and psychological supports, structures and framework in our lives. During this retrograde any activities and commitments that are problematic can be restructured and long term commitments can be rearranged as activity slows down during this time. This is especially beneficial to those with Saturn in retrograde in their Natal chart where there is a tendency to say Yes when you shouldn’t agree to the terms involved. This tends to be in areas where Saturn is placed in the Astrological Houses. This is also not an ideal time to take on additional long term commitments.

Pluto is retrograde in 2018 from April 22nd to September 30th, 2018, in the sign of Capricorn.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/pluto-retrograde

This retrograde is an ideal time for concentration and seeing subconscious motivations.  The focus during this time is on the internal psyche and psychological issues that affect the body.  It can be a very healing time to recover from long term illnesses.  It is also a time to look at life patterns and revamp ways of thinking and attitudes that are unhelpful, especially in areas of personal power.

Once these are known read the corresponding Astrological sign reading.

Hope everyone has a nice Lammas (August 1st) or Imbolc for those in the Southern Hemisphere.

There are three planets in Retrograde for July (Pluto, Saturn and Neptune) as well as Chiron in Reverse starting July 1st in Pisces.

Pluto Retrograde – April 20 at 19° Capricorn and ends on September 28 at 16° Capricorn. 

http://astrologyking.com/pluto-retrograde/

This is a time to focus on removing barriers to growth.  Combined with the Jupiter Retrograde issues of greed, excess, faith or ideology are most like to be problematic.  A reoccurring set of circumstances may occur with a Pluto retrograde until lessons are learned.  Fear of loss of control or being manipulated or betrayed may lead to increased psychic development when Pluto in retrograde is in the birth chart. During this time power and control are important issues and need to be eliminated.  Overcoming addictions or destructive behavior will help spiritual advancement.

Saturn Retrograde – April 6 at 27° Sagittarius and stations direct on August 25 at 21° Sagittarius.

http://astrologyking.com/saturn-retrograde/

During this retrograde restriction, limitation; anxiety and fear are issues to be dealt

with as well as enhancing the capacity for dealing with increased responsibilities. Depression or isolation may be issues needing solutions and if not dealt with and may require drastic actions to do begin the process.

Neptune Retrograde – June 16 2017 at 16° Pisces and ends on 22 November 2017 at 11° Pisces

http://astrologyking.com/neptune-retrograde/

During this retrograde, especially for those with a Neptune retrograde in the natal chart, it is a time associated with Karmic repercussions and soul growth.  This planet’s retrograde is also associated with pandemic illnesses (from the time of the full moon on the 9th of June) and personal emotional torture such as gossip, scandal, and slander as well as religious persecution.  It is important to take extra precautions for personal hygiene and protecting oneself in social situations. A Neptune retrograde when combined with the Saturn and Pluto retrogrades indicates a time associated with the misuse of power.

Neptune retrogrades are also a time of clearing of illusions to reveal the true state, which can be painful.  During this retrograde it is an ideal time for doing a detox, meditation and Yoga, all things that help strengthen the access to the higher self.  Suspicions may prove to be accurate and second opinions may be needed medically as it is a time of more likely misdiagnosis. It is also recommended to use herbal remedies such as Parsley as well as eating Pomegranates and oranges to strengthen the immune system. (always check for any contraindication when using herbal remedies, especially for medical conditions and when taking other herbal remedies or prescription medications).

Lynn Koiner, another astrologer, also advises the focus is more internal during a Neptune Retrograde which can be beneficial because it makes any outstanding issues easier to see than when Neptune is in direct.  Avoiding stimulants, chemicals and drugs during this time is important as well as avoiding drama triggers that drain energies such as addictive personalities, psychic hot spots and drama queens. She suggests using black tourmaline to protect against negative influences and psychic attacks.

http://www.lynnkoiner.com/astrology-articles/neptune-retrograde-2008

Chiron (Wounded Healer) in Reverse in Pisces from July 1st to December 4th 2017

http://www.evolvingdoor.ca/miscarticles/chiron-in-pisces.htm

During this time wounded people may be drawn to you. It is important to practice self-care during this transit when helping others as you may find it to be extra draining on you. This transit is also associated with great creativity and enlightenment that manifests itself in a healing and fulfilling way.

Knowing where these planets are in your birth chart can help in anticipating which areas of your life might have difficulties. Saturn retrogrades are associated with fated life lessons.
