July 2025 Astrology Forecast: Past, Present, and Future

Venus enters Gemini & Neptune stations Retrograde in Aries

July 4, 2025, 11:31 AM EST & 5:33 PM EST

Venus’ ingress into Gemini brings more color and variety into our social and romantic lives. In the sign of the Twins, Venus inspires us to widen our social circles and explore a diversity of connections, values, and interests. During this transit, we tend to be more socially open, curious, and eager to start conversations with strangers. Venus in Gemini reminds us that everyone has something to teach us and we can learn something from everyone. The upcoming weeks are a very favorable time for all pursuits that involve learning, networking, and communicating.

Meanwhile, just a few weeks after entering Aries, Neptune stations retrograde in the sign of the Warrior. Neptune’s shift of motion is an invitation to restructure our dreams, aspirations, and the ideals driving our actions. This transit is an opportunity to release illusions and delusions that are not in alignment with Truth. It is an opportunity to question whether we may be acting from a place of escapism, fantasy, or unrealistic expectations and focus on strengthening our connection with Source and Truth before moving forward.

Uranus enters Gemini

July 7, 2025, 03:46 AM EST

Uranus makes his first ingress into Gemini, accelerating the pace of our everyday lives, increasing the speed at which information is exchanged, and catalyzing a surge of new, innovative ideas and visions. This shift inaugurates a dynamic and revolutionary period characterized by rapid changes in how we think, communicate, and connect with others. This transit begins a period of collective intellectual awakening, inspires us to question established narratives, and helps us break free from thinking patterns that don’t serve us. Uranus in Gemini, together with Pluto in Aquarius, will exacerbate the tendency to live in the head and detach from the body: during the upcoming years, we will be challenged to stay grounded in our physicality, inhabit the present moment, and build routines that support our nervous system.

Full Moon in Capricorn

July 10, 2025, 4:36 PM EST

The Full Moon in Capricorn represents an opportunity to reflect on how we parent ourselves and an invitation to find more harmony between prioritizing our personal and emotional lives and prioritizing our professional commitments and responsibilities out in the world. This event may bring to light where we may have been over-functioning or under-nurturing ourselves for the sake of productivity, status, or external validation. It is an invitation to reflect on the messages we received from our culture, society, and family around vulnerability, sensitivity, having needs, and feeling emotions, and to consider whether the structure we built for our life is actually supporting our emotional well-being. The Full Moon trines Mars in Virgo, which supports our ability to take action on the insights we gain and assert our desires and needs in intentional ways.

Saturn stations Retrograde in Aries

July 13, 2025, 12:07 AM EST

Just a few weeks after entering Aries, Saturn stations retrograde in the sign of the Warrior, continuing to travel side by side with Neptune. Saturn’s shift of motion is an opportunity to slow down and tune in: rather than continuing to move forward and act on autopilot, we are asked to spend more time in reflection and make sure we know where we are going. While retrograde, Saturn invites us to get clear about what we aspire to build and what responsibilities we are willing to take. During Saturn’s retrograde journey, and especially while Saturn travels back through Pisces, we may face delays or encounter resistance if we try to keep pushing forward. The invitation for us is to wrap up unresolved business and make sure we are acting in alignment with our true values.

Mercury stations Retrograde in Leo

July 18, 2025, 12:45 AM EST

In Leo, Mercury’s backward journey is an invitation to reflect on how we express ourselves, how we speak, create, and share what we think and feel. It is an opportunity to question our ideas about creativity and explore alternative paths of expression. The upcoming days and weeks will offer us chances to revisit old projects, let go of thinking patterns that block the flow of inspiration, and relate with our creative voice in new ways. This transit offers us an opportunity to renew our inner dialogue and refine our ability to think and communicate creatively. It is a time to find more authentic ways to express who we are and reconnect with our creative fire.

Sun enters Leo

July 22, 2025, 09:30 AM EST

The Sun’s ingress into Leo shines a bright light on our desire to actualize ourselves creatively and live authentically and joyfully from the heart. Leo season is an invitation to show up fully in life: this time of the year encourages us to cultivate our inner fire and channel our energy toward our passions, toward what makes us feel alive. The Sun’s ingress into Leo invites us to step into the spotlight of our lives, to be the main character rather than an observer. Leo season is a powerful time to strengthen our connection with our inner child’s joy and playfulness and focus on those endeavors that help us connect with a sense of destiny, fulfillment, and purpose.

New Moon in Leo

July 24, 2025, 3:10 PM EST

The Leo New Moon brings the spotlight on our journey toward authentic self-expression and urges us to share our true selves with the world with courage. This event begins a lunar month centered around self-discovery, creative exploration, and personal transformation. The Sun and the Moon will tightly oppose Pluto in Aquarius, which highlights the need to confront fears, wounds, or power dynamics that we feel are inhibiting our ability to shine and be fully expressed. This opposition is an opportunity to explore how external influences, peer pressure, fear of rejection, and the need to belong might inhibit our self-expression or dim our light. This Leo New Moon is a call for courage, a call to reclaim our power, honor our individuality, and express ourselves unapologetically, even when that means not fitting in anywhere.

Venus enters Cancer

July 30, 2025, 11:57 PM EST

Venus’ ingress into Cancer brings our attention to the value of emotional closeness, trust, and connection with those who feel like home. This transit brings our focus toward family themes, our relationship with our roots, and the bonds that offer us a sense of safety and belonging. During the upcoming weeks, we will feel more inclined to nurture the people we care about and prioritize our connections with those we trust the most. Venus in Cancer is an invitation to soften and to deepen our ability to both give and receive love, nurturance, and care. This transit supports our ability to be compassionate, kind, and attuned to both our and others’ needs and emotions.

July 2025 Astrology Forecast: Our Invitation

July 2025 is a month colored by the dance between the past and the future, between the urge to move forward and the need to slow down, revisit the past, and make sure we have learned our lessons before we do so. While Saturn and Neptune prepare to return to Pisces, asking us to close cycles and deal with unfinished business, Uranus’ ingress into Gemini propels us toward the future at the speed of light.

Together with Pluto’s transit through Aquarius, Aquarius’ modern ruler entering Gemini accelerates the pace of humanity’s evolution, facilitating technological and scientific advancements as well as shifts in education systems and media. These transits will also exacerbate the tendency to dissociate from the felt sense of the body and live in the mind, in virtual realities, or in a constant state of information overwhelm.

We are experiencing a massive shift in collective consciousness. As we navigate these times of transition, the challenge for us is to find ways to carry the lessons of the past into the future, while staying anchored in our bodies, in our values, and in the present moment.
