Astrology Forecast August 1 – 7, 2022
Communication, research, and innovation are the themes of the week as the Moon travels through thought-provoking signs and Mercury moves into the idealistic sign of Virgo on Thursday.
With a Virgo Moon overhead today, we’ll start the week out by organizing and refining our thoughts, goals, and plans for the future.
The Mars and Uranus conjunction in Taurus this morning will further boost our energy levels and will keep us focused on our goals for the week ahead. However, don’t allow your determination and focus to turn into an impulsive and stubborn mindset. Rules are there for a reason, so don’t foolishly break them because you feel somewhat unstoppable this morning!
Tomorrow and Wednesday we’ll be striving for balance under the Libra Moon, double-checking facts, and making sure our ideas are sound and attainable.
The Venus in Cancer sextile with Uranus in Taurus tomorrow morning will be the ideal time to ask that special someone out on a date. Venus and Uranus in this constellation tends to make people more open and receptive to to romance, love and new connections, so strike while the iron is hot!
Mercury will move into Virgo, one of the signs it rules, on Thursday, speeding up our thoughts and inspiring our visions for the next three weeks. Combined with a Scorpio Moon, we’ll move beyond the tangible and consider alternate ways to bring our dreams into reality.
The pace will slow a bit over the weekend, as the Sagittarius Moon encourages us to lighten the pace and spend more time interacting with others in social and fun-loving ways. Just be sure to write down those flashes of brilliance when they pop up this week, for further investigation next week.

The Wise Approach To Mercury Retrograde
According to astrology, our lives can be in upheaval when Mercury goes Retrograde. Its effects can be felt by anyone, regardless of your zodiac sign.
However, some signs may be more sensitive to its influence than others. This is because Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo, and people with strong placements of these signs in their birth charts may be more likely to experience disruptions in communication, technology, and transportation during a Mercury retrograde.
Although this concept is widely touted in the spiritual and metaphysical communities, I find that many people affected by it do not understand its true meaning and are not well informed on how best to deal with it.
Mercury retrograde is indeed a challenging cosmic influence. It tends to feel like we have just finished one round of it, and the next one is already looming on the horizon.
A common side effect of Mercury Retrograde for many people is unexplained nervous energy or restlessness. You feel anxious and stressed about everything, and you can’t figure out why? Sometimes you feel anxious about things that have never bothered you in the past.
You may also have a hard time concentrating on things. Retrograde energy can throw even the most calm and centered person off balance.
Astrology Forecast July 25 – 31, 2022
If you have a busy schedule at work this week, brace yourself for a challenging few days ahead. The Moon wades through Cancer today until Wednesday, leaving us with a preference for rest and relaxation at home, instead of drive and ambition, which is not ideal energy for the first three days of a demanding work week.
However, if you are fortunate to be spending time at home this week, use this restorative lunar energy to revitalize your soul and recharge your body and mind.
Tomorrow morning the Cancer Moon square Jupiter in Aries will further increase our sense of laziness and wanting to chill out. Until Thursday, we may therefore have to dig deep to persevere, stay on track, and get stuff done.
By tomorrow afternoon, the situation may degenerate even further when Mercury in Leo squares Mars in Taurus. This energy may cause our sense of laziness and procrastination to turn into hypersensitivity to criticism, sarcasm, intolerance, and even aggressive behaviour. If you find yourself spiralling, take some time out and gather your emotions…before you do or say something you might later regret.
Come Thursday, the Leo New Moon will set the stage for active change and restore our vision for the future. Jupiter will also turn retrograde on this day, traveling backward until the end of November. Jupiter Retrograde is an opportunity to step back and consider what we want to manifest in our lives, as well as pointing out where we may need to change direction, or how to focus on achieving what we want. During this phase, there will be a lot of shifts and changes in our perception, as well as our thinking. It can help us separate our ‘wants’ and ‘needs’ from our ‘desires.’
We will close out the week under a Taurus Moon, which encourages physical activity and a reality check as we evaluate our surroundings and clear out clutter to make way for a new cycle of attainment. Translation: out with the old, in with the new.
Astrology Forecast July 18 – 24, 2022
Two planets will cruise into Leo this week, beginning with Mercury tomorrow, followed by the Sun on Friday. With these two aspects in play, we’ll start to see the lazy days of summer in our spiritual rear-view mirror and turn our attention to all we want to get done before the season is completed next month.
Leo embodies the heart-warming connections we embrace and encourages generosity, authenticity, and passion. As a sign of the zodiac that promotes the self and ego, we’ll focus on building our confidence and presence in the world in the month ahead, while remembering how our actions and choices will affect others.
The lunar energies of this week are also highly productive as the Moon travels through Aries today through Wednesday and then charges into Taurus to move us forward in deliberate and tangible ways. Guard against stubbornness, but don’t let anything get in your way.
Avoid becoming emotional in your dealings with others early this morning, as an Aries Moon square Venus in Cancer is known for triggering irritability, anger and arguments. Matters should improve by mid-morning with the conjunction between the Moon and Jupiter in Aries, which bodes well for both social success and financial gains. Use this opportunity to also schedule follow-up calls and meetings for tomorrow morning first thing, when you will be able to continue riding this self-confident energy wave with the organizational talents of Mercury in Leo.
A Gemini Moon hangs overhead this weekend, encouraging us to connect with loved ones and share our thoughts, ideas, and hopes for the future with anyone who will listen, either on the internet or in person.
Astrology Forecast July 11 – 17, 2022
Today should turn out to be an easy-going day, and though we may not get much done under the Sagittarius Moon, a sense of rebalancing and renewal will surround us.
But caution is advised in domestic affairs this evening, as two aspects may cause some emotional upheaval at home. The Sagittarius Moon opposition with Venus in Gemini can lead to unbridled passion and overreactive feelings, while the Sagittarius Moon square Neptune in Pisces may further cause us to be hypersensitive, anxious, even neurotic. Make every effort to set the scene for a calm, tranquil evening and leave unresolved work issues at the office. Tomorrow is another day.
Tuesday’s Capricorn Moon will get us back on track with obligations, and as it waxes full on Wednesday, we’re sure to get a lot of things on our list completed. We will feel especially fired up around midday tomorrow, when a Capricorn Moon trine Mars in Taurus will infuse us with resourcefulness, determination and practical action. Wednesday morning the Capricorn Moon trine Uranus in Taurus will add an additional flair of focus, persuasiveness, optimism, and new solutions to old problems.
Brainstorming and interactive discussions will futher improve our productivity under Thursday and Friday’s Aquarius Moon, and we may even be inspired to join a discussion or group to share our ideas with the world at large.
A peaceful weekend awaits as the Sun drifts through Pisces, punctuated by Venus’ entry into Cancer on Sunday. This could be the perfect weekend to get out and find some new items for your home, practice a little feng shui or clear out clutter to restore and refresh your surroundings.
Astrology Forecast July 4 – 10, 2022
Today and tomorrow’s Virgo Moon is ideal for tackling projects and jobs that have been hitting glitches the last few weeks, as astrological influences have cleared and it’s now smooth sailing ahead.
The Cancer Sun sextile the Virgo Moon may however put a passivity damper on our work ethic this morning, but while we are gearing up to get things done later, it might be a good idea to tap into the heightened capacity for rational thinking this aspect also offers. Use this energy to lead with your head, not your heart, and at least get a plan of action together in the meantime.
Balance will be the theme as the Moon glides through Libra on Wednesday and Thursday. Thursday afternoon the Libra Moon trine Saturn in Aquarius will create an ideal opportunity for successful business meetings and marketing presentations, especially in dealing with powerful, respected clients.
Sunday’s Sagittarius Moon will remind us to stop and have a little fun, as we’ve all been working way too hard!
Astrology Forecast June 27 – July 3, 2022
Exploring new options will be the overriding theme under today’s Gemini Moon, as we’ll want to expand our curiosity and natural affinity for alternate ideas to what we have already. But carefully consider hitting that ‘buy now’ button today, as a better deal could come along in just a few more days!
This evening’s Gemini Moon sextile Mars in Aries creates the ideal ambience for a romantic date night. What better excuse to spoil that special person in your life! You may also have a craving for spicy food, so take your partner or spouse to a Mexican, Thai or Indian restaurant.
The Cancer New Moon occurs tomorrow, while Neptune goes retrograde for a five-month period. These two aspects can further generate new ideas and options, so keep your eyes and ears open. Beware tomorrow night’s Cancer Sun square Jupiter in Aries, as this aspect is known for tempting us to indulge in hedonistic pursuits that might leave you hungover and bloated from all the late night partying. Play it safe, and go to be early tomorrow night, instead of joining friends at that trendy new bar or nightclub. You will thank me in the morning!
Things should flow along smoothly under Wednesday and Thursday’s Cancer Moon, but if you find yourself moving in circles or unable to tackle a project, you can also blame it on this watery sign.
Our energy will resurface on Friday and Saturday as a fiery Leo Moon inspires action and more action.
Save Sunday for investigating details, organizing that closet that got out of hand, or mapping out a new plan of action under the detail-oriented Virgo Moon.
