Weekly Intuitive Astrology of July 16 to 23 ~ Mercury retrograde begins, Mars conj SN in Virgo, Sun enters Leo

Cancer season closes out with the Sun squaring Eris in Aries at 25 deg and Chiron in Aries at 27 deg, which further emphasizes the Cancer-Aries tension that began at the Solstice. Emotional chaos and triggers are heightened that can lead you to new self-awareness around where you need support and self-empowerment. Mars in Virgo reaches the South Node in Virgo at 19 and 20 deg from July 20 to 23, revealing what is no longer working and not bringing the results you want. Mars in Virgo seeks order, improvements and excellence, but the South Node is closing out what is not aligned with your intuitive guidance. Venus in Gemini brings a square to Mars and the Nodes of Fate at the same time, which activates more linear thinking, potential choices, and miscommunication issues. The Sun enters Leo on July 22 and creates an invigorating sextile to Uranus in Gemini that ignites creative expressions, more authenticity, and new courageous beginnings to explore.
