Venus squares Saturn and Uranus.

A tricky day is in store as Venus squares both Saturn and Neptune. It may be difficult to understand others' values and broker solutions to problems. Saturn and Neptune continue to be conjunct the Uranus/Pluto midpoint, sextile both, (July 9th to the end of August). This will linger. This pattern peaks 11th/12th August. This smacks of serious global tension. 10.57 The very slowly waxing Moon at 9 Scorpio square retro-Mercury at 9 Leo 12.42 The Moon reaches First Quarter 13.35 Venus at 2 Cancer waxing square Saturn at 2 Aries 17.26 The Moon at 12 Scorpio waxing trine Jupiter at 12 Cancer 20.38 The Moon is at apogee, furthest from the Earth and slowest all month. 20.49 Venus at 2 Cancer waxing square Neptune at 2 Aries

Monday 4th August 2025

01.06 Jupiter at 12 Cancer waxing quad-novile Pluto at 2 Aquarius Jupiter racing through Cancer makes yet another minor aspect, to Pluto this time. The balance and play of power games takes on another direction. Watch the news. 03.06 retro-Mercury at 7 Leo waning septile Mars at 28 Virgo 06.13 The Moon at 12 Sagittarius waxing trine The Sun at 12 Leo 06.45 The Moon at 12 Sagittarius waxing quincunx Jupiter at 12 Cancer 14.44 The Sun at 12 Leo waxing semi-sextile Jupiter at 12 Cancer 21.48 The Moon at 20 Sagittarius squares her node from deep south of the equator. STATE OF THE SKY. (ALL TIMES ON THIS SITE ARE GMT.) The Sun today is at 13 degrees Leo. Retrograde Mercury is also in Leo. Venus and Jupiter are in Cancer. There are 49 days to the September Equinox. We are approaching a 'high flying spirited' Full Moon early GMT saturday, and a Total Lunar Eclipse in 5 weeks time. Saturn and Neptune's unconsummated 'test of faith' conjunction, dominating most of 2025, was closest on July 14th and is exactly conjunct in Feb. 2026. So far it seems that Neptune in Aries is inducing social unease and Saturn in Aries is engendering 'war readiness'. Mercury, Saturn, Neptune and Pluto are now retrograde. The week ahead witnesses the build up to the Full Moon, the continuing emotionally bountiful application of Venus to Jupiter in Cancer and an 'Air Kite' based on a Grand Trine involving Mars,in Libra from Thursday, Uranus and Pluto with Mercury, a week from his direct station, opposing Pluto. This is a climatic and far reaching six days ahead of us. MERCURY Mercury entered Leo on June 26th as an evening star. He resides in this sign for a lengthy 66 days. His retrograde phase occurs during this residence but unusually there are no repeat aspects this time. It's rather an uneventful ride for the messenger of the Gods. Mercury turned retrograde on July 18th at 16 degrees Leo. He was at Inferior Conjunction with the Sun at 9 Leo on July 31st. Now as a morning star Mercury turns direct at 4 Leo on August 11th. Mercury sextiles Mars on Aug 15th. Mercury leaves his shadow on Aug 25th. Mercury leaves Leo for Virgo on Sept 2nd. There you have it. A period of opinionated fixed communications. 'Generous to a fault-but no give'. Mercury retrograde periods ahead. Current one - July 18 to Aug 11, 2025 Nov 9 to Nov 29, 2025 Feb. 25 to Mar 20, 2026 Jun 29 to Jul 23, 2026 Oct 24 to Nov 13 2026 VENUS Venus entered Cancer on July 31st, as a morning star, joining Jupiter in this sign. Venus and Jupiter are both exalted in Cancer. This is a pleasant residence. Sweetness, love, bountiful care and nurture. Venus resides here for 26 days. Venus conjuncts Jupiter on August 12th at 14 degrees Cancer. Venus leaves Cancer for Leo on August 25th. Venus' next retrograde period is the 41 day period from Oct 3rd to Nov 14th 2026 in Scorpio and Libra. MARS Mars entered Virgo on June 17th. He resides in this sign for a materially productive 53 days. Mars in Virgo is 'diligent practicality in action'. It favours good workmanship and strives for exactitude and perfection. His residence here this time his mainly favourable. Mars moves on into Libra on August 6th and within 3 days scarily opposes Saturn and Neptune, but that's a story for another day. Mars is next retrograde from Jan 10th 2027 to April 1st 2027 in Leo/Virgo. JUPITER Jupiter is in Cancer from June 9th 2025 to June 30th 2026. He is retrograde from Nov 11th 2025 to March 11th 2026. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer. His energy is focused on 'the home' and the people, places, and memories that make us feel safe and secure. This one is 'the family way'. Jupiter in Cancer cares. Jupiter in Cancer 'expands home', it centres us on 'selfhood', our place, our world domain. It 'holds together' after the energetic flurry of Jupiter in Gemini. Jupiter in Cancer spreads peace. Not a bad thought in such a chaotic world right now. SATURN Saturn is retrograde in Aries. Saturn's first foray into Aries lasts from 25/5/25 to 1/9/25. After returning to Pisces for 5 months he finally settles in Aries on February 14, 2026. Saturn stations in Aries on July 13th 2025 at 2 degrees Aries. We are in for a three month 'taster' trip. New lessons on cutting out the nonsense, getting a grip on future plans, less drift, less emotion. Lean, mean and keen. URANUS Uranus first buzzed into Gemini on 7th July 2025. This is a big one. Uranus, the planet associated with radical change, technology and innovation, will enter the sign of Gemini on July 7 this year until May 22, 2033. A seven year global episode of invention, discovery, twists and radical inventions which change our lives lie ahead. Uranus's initial residence in this sign is from today July 7th 2025 to November 8th 2025. He returns here for a 6.25 year stay, leaving for Cancer on August 3rd 2032. The two most recent transits of Uranus in Gemini include the US involvement in World War 2 (1941-1945) and the US Civil War (1861-1865). The transit of Uranus through Gemini from 1774-1782, includes the American Revolutionary War. The last time Uranus entered Gemini was August 7th 1941. The previous 7 years to this, with Uranus in Taurus, (Hitler's Sun sign), had seen the great rise to power of this man. His Blitzkrieg war has resulted in his take over of much of western Europe including the Netherlands, Belgium, and northern France. As Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union, known as Operation Barbarossa, was just 2 months underway, Uranus entered Gemini. The tide of the war turned. Such is the dramatic quality, and 'turning power' of Uranus in Geminis. As Uranus enters Gemini he completes the triad of Pluto in Aquarius, and Neptune in Aries. This last occurred in 1405 BC. According to some interpretations of biblical timelines, 1405 BC marks the end of the wilderness wanderings of the Israelites and the death of Moses, following the Exodus from Egypt. The decade of 1409-1400 BC includes the destruction of the Palace of Minos, the rise of Mycenaean civilization, and the shift of political and cultural power in the Aegean from Crete to mainland Greece. Well there's more world history about to unfold this time around. Uranus in Gemini will air trine Pluto from 2026 to 2028. NEPTUNE Neptune first entered Aries on March 30th 2025. He is now retrograde in Aries. PLUTO Pluto re-entered Aquarius on Nov 19th 2024 and will remain there till the year 2043. He is currently retrograde. Pluto was last in Aquarius from 1777 to 1798. Uranus in Gemini will air trine Pluto from 2026 to 2028. This is the most exciting time ahead, astrologically speaking. Saturn in Aries will sextile Pluto in 2026 and square Pluto 3 times during 2028-2029. UPCOMING ECLIPSES Sunday Sept 7th 2025. A Total Lunar Eclipse at 15 Pisces, visible at Moonrise UK. 18.12 GMT Sept 21st 2025. A partial Solar Eclipse at 29 Virgo visible from the far southern Pacific. 19.42 GMT Feb 17th 2026.

THE LUNAR STANDSTILL.

The Mean Lunar Node is in Pisces. We are (June/July 2025) past the climax of a Major Lunar Standstill. This is a period lasting for three years within the 18.6 year lunar nodal cycle. The last major lunar standstill centred on June 2006, and this current one was centred in January 2025. During these years we are observing extreme northerly and southerly lunar rising and setting points on the local horizon when the Moon is in tropical Gemini/Cancer or Sagittarius/Capricorn.

Tuesday 5th August 2025

In addition to ongoing planetary activity, a planetary kite manifests August 5th to 15th, involving Mars Pluto and Uranus in Air signs and focussed on Mars opposite Saturn and Neptune. 04.41 The Sun at 13 Leo waxing quintile Uranus at 1 Gemini 09.09 retro-Mercury at 6 Leo waxing semi-sextile Venus at 6 Cancer 14.01 The accelerating Moon reaches her waxing gibbous phase The procession to the Full Moon now starts in earnest. 15.29 The Moon at 29 Sagittarius waxing square Mars at 29 Virgo.

He resides in this sign for 46 days. Mars in Libra blends dignified strength and social cooperation. Mars puts his best foot forward in Libra but he does tend to dither. He is however immediately immersed in a flurry of planetary aspects. He trines Uranus Aug 8th, he opposes Saturn and Neptune Aug 9th, the day of the Full Moon, and Mars trine pluto Aug 10th. This is the climax of a planetary picture which has been building up over the last few weeks. The opposition to Saturn and Neptune is difficult. There is restriction and malady woven in there. Mars sextiles Mercury twice Aug 15th and Aug 18th, diplomatic action and words winning out. Mars squares Jupiter Sept 5th, gushing, sextiles Venus on Sept 16th, sweet liaison, and leaves Libra for a plunge into Scorpio on Sept 22nd.

Friday 8th August 2025

Mars trine Uranus  

As we approach the Full Moon tomorrow, and the continuing emotionally bountiful application of Venus to Jupiter in Cancer, exact next Tuesday, we are currently immersed in the astrological energies evoked by an 'Air Kite' based on a Grand Trine in Air involving Mars now firmly resident in Libra, Uranus in Gemini and Pluto (and the Moon) in Aquarius. Mars opposes Saturn and Neptune and forms the axis of the Kite. In addition Mercury turning direct, on Monday, and the imminent Full Moon all conspire to produce this set of news stories. A Trump-Putin meeting could take place next week. Hostage families sail toward Gaza calling for Israel to end the war. Israel is using US munitions to 'illegally and indiscriminately' attack Gaza school shelters, Human Rights Watch says. French firefighters are battling to contain a blaze that killed an elderly woman and tore through an area bigger than Paris. We watch with interest what comes next. 01.20 The almost Full Moon enters Aquarius joining Pluto in this sign 02.36 The Moon at 1 Aquarius waxing trine Mars at 1 Libra 03.20 The Moon at 1 Aquarius waning trine Uranus at 1 Gemini 03.49 The Moon at 1 Aquarius waning sextile Saturn at 1 Aries 04.43 The Moon at 2 Aquarius waning sextile Neptune at 2 Aries 05.26 The Moon Pluto at 2 Aquarius 09.53 The Moon at 5 Aquarius opposition Mercury at 5 Leo 15.52 The Sun at 16 Leo waxing sesuiquadrate Saturn at 1 Aries 18.46 Mars at 1 Libra waxing trine Uranus at 1 Gemini 19.31 The Moon at 10 Aquarius waning quincunx Venus at 10 Cancer The Moon is Full tonight.

Full Moon in Aquarius

Mars opposite Saturn and Neptune.

01.32 The Moon at 13 Aquarius waning quincunx Jupiter at 13 Cancer 02.53 Mars at 1 Libra opposition Saturn at 1 Aries 04.19 The Sun at 17 Leo waxing sesuiquadrate Neptune at 2 Aries 07.56 Moment of FULL MOON, moon void Today's Full Moon is the 5th Full Moon following the Total Lunar Eclipse at 24 Virgo on March 14th 2025 and the ultimate Full Moon before another Total Lunar Eclipse on September 7th 2025 at 15 degrees Pisces. With the passing of today's Full Moon we enter 'the foothills' of a new eclipse season. This Full Moon makes no planetary aspects and just a sextile aspect to Ceres, but the sky is full of planetary dynamism, especially the 'High Air Kite'! Mars opposes both Saturn and Neptune today. Venus applies to a conjunction with Jupiter, exact on Tuesday. Mars, Uranus and Pluto form an Air Grand Trine, and an almost stationary retrograde Mercury opposes Pluto. Fire and Air predominate as do Cardinality and Fixity. There are no bodies in an Earth sign. This is a high flying spirited Full Moon. It stands as an Airy monolith to courage, defiance and power, healing and malady. It also holds within its heart a wealth of bountiful emotion, due to Venus and Jupiter close in Cancer. The Full Moon stands as a tribute to the Zeitgeist of the time, and naturally will rapidly disintegrate. At the exact moment of Full Moon today it is Sunrise over The mid S. Atlantic. Sunset is over Queensland. Moonrise is over Queensland. Moonset is over The mid S. Atlantic. High Noon is at Tashkent, and True midnight is at Long Beach(CA). Venus exactly rises at Cincinnati. The Full Moon today directly hits Israel's Lilith, ISIS' Neptune, the Bit Coin Chiron, the Large Hadron Collider's Node and Chiron, UK's Venus, Cuba's Jupiter, Texas' Saturn, Lucy Letbe's Node, Christian Ronaldo's Sun, Professor Brian Cox's Mercury, Grace Slick's Mars. 17.53 Venus at 11 Cancer waxing novile Uranus at 1 Gemini 22.14 Mars at 2 Libra opposition Neptune at 2 Aries

The Moon is void of course for 7.2 hours 19.07 The Moon enters Cancer joining Venus and Jupiter in this sign. 20.34 The Moon at 1 Cancer waxing square Saturn at 1 Aries 21.57 The Moon at 2 Cancer waxing square Neptune at 2 Aries 22.35 The Moon at 2 Cancer waxing quincunx Pluto at 2 Aquarius STATE OF THE SKY. (ALL TIMES ON THIS SITE ARE GMT.) The Sun today is at 26 degrees Leo. Mercury is also in Leo. Venus and Jupiter and the Moon are in Cancer. There are 35 days to the September Equinox. The Sun enters Virgo on Friday. There is a critical 'Tough Love' New Moon in Virgo on Saturday. We are also approaching a Total Lunar Eclipse in 3 weeks time. Saturn and Neptune's unconsummated 'test of faith' conjunction, dominating most of 2025, was closest on July 14th and is exactly conjunct in Feb. 2026. So far it seems that Neptune in Aries is inducing social unease and Saturn in Aries is engendering 'war readiness'. Saturn, Neptune and Pluto are now retrograde. MERCURY Mercury entered Leo on June 26th, and after his retrograde loop he turned direct at 4 Leo on August 11th. Mercury leaves his shadow on Aug 25th. Mercury leaves Leo for Virgo on Sept 2nd. There you have it. A period of opinionated fixed communications. 'Generous to a fault-but no give'. Mercury retrograde periods ahead. Nov 9 to Nov 29, 2025 Feb. 25 to Mar 20, 2026 Jun 29 to Jul 23, 2026 Oct 24 to Nov 13 2026 Feb 9 to Mar 3, 2027 VENUS Venus entered Cancer on July 31st, as a morning star, joining Jupiter in this sign. Venus and Jupiter are both exalted in Cancer. This is a pleasant residence. Sweetness, love, bountiful care and nurture. Venus resides here for 26 days. Venus leaves Cancer for Leo on August 25th. Venus' next retrograde period is the 41 day period from Oct 3rd to Nov 14th 2026 in Scorpio and Libra. MARS Mars entered Libra August 6th. He resides in this sign for 46 days. Mars in Libra blends dignified strength and social cooperation. Mars puts his best foot forward in Libra but he does tend to dither. Mars squares Jupiter Sept 5th, gushing, sextiles Venus on Sept 16th, sweet liaison, and leaves Libra for a plunge into Scorpio on Sept 22nd. Mars is next retrograde from Jan 10th 2027 to April 1st 2027 in Leo/Virgo. JUPITER Jupiter is in Cancer from June 9th 2025 to June 30th 2026. He is retrograde from Nov 11th 2025 to March 11th 2026. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer. His energy is focused on 'the home' and the people, places, and memories that make us feel safe and secure. This one is 'the family way'. Jupiter in Cancer cares. Jupiter in Cancer 'expands home', it centres us on 'selfhood', our place, our world domain. It 'holds together' after the energetic flurry of Jupiter in Gemini. Jupiter in Cancer spreads peace. Not a bad thought in such a chaotic world right now. SATURN Saturn is retrograde in Aries. Saturn's first foray into Aries lasts from 25/5/25 to 1/9/25. After returning to Pisces for 5 months he finally settles in Aries on February 14, 2026. Saturn stations in Aries on July 13th 2025 at 2 degrees Aries. We are in for a three month 'taster' trip. New lessons on cutting out the nonsense, getting a grip on future plans, less drift, less emotion. Lean, mean and keen. URANUS Uranus first buzzed into Gemini on 7th July 2025. This is a big one. Uranus, the planet associated with radical change, technology and innovation, will enter the sign of Gemini on July 7 this year until May 22, 2033. A seven year global episode of invention, discovery, twists and radical inventions which change our lives lie ahead. Uranus's initial residence in this sign is from today July 7th 2025 to November 8th 2025. He returns here for a 6.25 year stay, leaving for Cancer on August 3rd 2032. The two most recent transits of Uranus in Gemini include the US involvement in World War 2 (1941-1945) and the US Civil War (1861-1865). The transit of Uranus through Gemini from 1774-1782, includes the American Revolutionary War. The last time Uranus entered Gemini was August 7th 1941. The previous 7 years to this, with Uranus in Taurus, (Hitler's Sun sign), had seen the great rise to power of this man. His Blitzkrieg war has resulted in his take over of much of western Europe including the Netherlands, Belgium, and northern France. As Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union, known as Operation Barbarossa, was just 2 months underway, Uranus entered Gemini. The tide of the war turned. Such is the dramatic quality, and 'turning power' of Uranus in Gemini. As Uranus enters Gemini he completes the triad of Pluto in Aquarius, and Neptune in Aries. This last occurred in 1405 BC. According to some interpretations of biblical timelines, 1405 BC marks the end of the wilderness wanderings of the Israelites and the death of Moses, following the Exodus from Egypt. The decade of 1409-1400 BC includes the destruction of the Palace of Minos, the rise of Mycenaean civilization, and the shift of political and cultural power in the Aegean from Crete to mainland Greece. Well there's more world history about to unfold this time around. Uranus in Gemini will air trine Pluto from 2026 to 2028. NEPTUNE Neptune first entered Aries on March 30th 2025. He is now retrograde in Aries. PLUTO Pluto re-entered Aquarius on Nov 19th 2024 and will remain there till the year 2043. He is currently retrograde. Pluto was last in Aquarius from 1777 to 1798. Uranus in Gemini will air trine Pluto from 2026 to 2028. This is the most exciting time ahead, astrologically speaking. Saturn in Aries will sextile Pluto in 2026 and square Pluto 3 times during 2028-2029. UPCOMING ECLIPSES Sunday Sept 7th 2025.

THE LUNAR STANDSTILL.

The Mean Lunar Node is in Pisces. We are (June/July 2025) past the climax of a Major Lunar Standstill. This is a period lasting for three years within the 18.6 year lunar nodal cycle. The last major lunar standstill centred on June 2006, and this current one was centred in January 2025. During these years we are observing extreme northerly and southerly lunar rising and setting points on the local horizon when the Moon is in tropical Gemini/Cancer or Sagittarius/Capricorn.
