Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

A Venus-Saturn minor challenge active today can have you turning your attention to the more negative possibilities, dear Aries. Worry is only good if it motivates you to fix a problem, of course, and if it doesn’t hang over you for too long, so you may want to focus on solving problems or on the things you can control. There may be a snub or disappointment to deal with now, but it’s temporary. While it may not be the best time to address issues, you can certainly resolve to take care of them at a later date when you have a better opening. Fortunately, a Mars-Juno transit also in play is empowering. You can find interesting ways to get your message across or get where you want to go. A new or different approach to your usual routines can refresh you. It’s best to put aside tension over personal viewpoints, paperwork, or errands.

Taurus

A minor challenging aspect involving your ruler, Venus, can point to some discouragement or ups and downs, dear Taurus. However, it can be useful and even rewarding. There can be a little strain in relationships or in your interactions, as others seem to be wrapped up in their own issues too much to reach out, and if they do, it may seem like only because they want something! Try to do your own thing, stick to your goals, be polite, and not take things too personally now. If the social elements of your life leave something to be desired, which is entirely possible now, it does allow you to detach yourself enough to really get things done. While you’re busy elsewhere, your social life may very well sort itself out! As well, you benefit from a transit that improves your determination, which can help you overcome or push through obstacles. Give thought to your finances and how you can make meaningful changes that free you from worry.

Gemini

People may be a little stiff with their affections in spots today, dear Gemini, with a Venus-Saturn challenge active. While it’s a minor aspect, the atmosphere can be somewhat discouraging if you’re overly invested in others’ responses. The trick may be to focus on different priorities! It’s a better day to focus on yourself and your obligations than to worry too much about what others are or aren’t doing. Both social clumsiness and oversensitivity are increased today, so be patient with others and yourself for best results. Looking at the big picture is better now, and in fact, enthusiasm may be building for new interests and challenges with a boosted Mars in your sign. In fact, you may naturally gravitate to situations that gently challenge you to learn and grow. Putting what you’ve learned to good use can be in focus.

Cancer

With a Venus-Saturn minor challenge influencing the day, dear Cancer, there is some tendency for people to cling to what they know and to feel threatened by change or confrontation. However, this probably has more to do with their insecurities and fears than with you. The good news is that you might find it easier to detach yourself to get practical matters handled or to carve out some personal space. On the negative side, you may not be judging relationships, objects, and situations very well now, which makes it important to set big decisions aside. Hold off on a significant purchase, for example. Fortunately, you may be able to tap into your courage and determination, especially when handling your emotional world or private life.

Leo

Venus, currently transiting your sign, heads toward a minor challenging aspect with Saturn, dear Leo, and this is not necessarily a day to shine or push your agenda. Energy may be off or lower than usual, but it’s temporary. Someone may not be very available or supportive just for the moment, perhaps as they could be wrapped up in their own problems and concerns. However, this kind of minor challenge allows you a bit of a break or space to handle other areas of your life. Resolve to do your own thing without worrying about what others are doing or not doing, and you’ll be in great form today. While there can be some disheartening moments today, overall, you’re in an idealistic, hopeful frame of mind. You can stumble upon especially interesting information, and you can be well-positioned to make small changes in your life that lead to significant improvements. You more readily see areas that would benefit from improved approaches, including projects and attitudes.

Virgo

A Venus-Saturn transit influencing today is a minor challenge, dear Virgo, but could lead to small discouragements or mild mix-ups. At times today, there can be a reserved atmosphere around you, perhaps due to underlying tension, a general disconnect, or a lack of understanding. There could be a disappointment in your intimate life, such as a snub or a missed opportunity. Others may be hard to reach or on the fence, and so can you! Today is best for keeping busy and attending to business or important errands and details. You can also be well positioned to solve complex problems on both work and health fronts. Prioritizing your work, projects, and tasks comes naturally. Today is suitable for both handling details and attending to the long-term bigger picture.

Libra

You could feel that others are withholding or distant at times today, dear Libra, as Venus and Saturn head towards a minor but tense angle. They may be self-protective if they’re insecure, but keep in mind that it’s unlikely to be about you. You may very well want to distance yourself a little, though you can go back and forth on this. You may not be entirely sure if you want more or less from someone right now. Rest your brain on this front. A little time and a little space may be all you need to sort things out, so there is no need to push. Fortunately, doing something different or non-routine with others can be particularly rewarding with current transits. You can see new ways of doing things that make your daily affairs or duties a little more enjoyable.

Scorpio

A minor but challenging Venus-Saturn connection influencing today suggests small discouragements or a slightly tense atmosphere socially, dear Scorpio. However, you can treat this as a natural time to back off a situation, as it can give you a break to get other important things done or simply give you some perspective. It doesn’t hurt to keep your plans to yourself just for now. You may not have a receptive audience at the moment, but it’s unlikely to have anything to do with the subject at hand, just the atmosphere of the day. People may be driven by their fears or insecurities, which can be apparent to you, but that doesn’t make it easy to deal with. However, good energy is with you for resolving problems, particularly as they relate to your family or emotional life. You might decide to unclutter, unburden, or take care of business that helps improve your situation.

Sagittarius

With a Venus-Saturn minor challenge influencing today, dear Sagittarius, on the surface of things, interactions can be polite, but you are likely to notice they lack some intimacy, depth, or sincerity. This is temporary energy that may require backing off a little, gaining a new perspective, and making some edits to current projects. Giving others (and yourself) some space is appropriate now, as is being patient with yourself and others. In fact, this can be an excellent time to de-emphasize social activities and to pour a little more energy into your responsibilities or hobbies. Fortunately, a boost in your observation skills helps you gauge your audience more effectively.

Capricorn

With a Venus-Saturn minor challenge influencing today, interactions can be a little strained, chilly, or superficial, dear Capricorn. However, if you arm yourself with the knowledge that people are feeling a little self-protective right now, then you won’t be as inclined to take things too personally. Temporarily, it can be hard to get in touch with your real feelings and needs, especially when you want some distance or to get closer to someone. Until you get that sorted, it’s best to avoid making premature decisions or taking action. Give others space and allow space for yourself as well. Counting on people to make you happy is a losing strategy, so make the best of the realistic cast to the day and work on something that needs your attention. Your social life may very well sort itself out in the meantime, all on its own! Fortunately, it can be a good time to invest your time and energy into something that will genuinely improve your life or is truly important to you. Try to tune out some of the extras for the best results.

Aquarius

With a Venus-Saturn minor challenging aspect influencing the day, dear Aquarius, there can be some reserve or sensitivity to perceived rejection or negative feedback. It can be challenging to come across warmly right now, or to receive warmth from others! Aim to get along with the people around you, but don’t put too much energy into trying to make a situation right if it’s just not going that way. A little space and time will iron things out. Fortunately, personal changes and improvements may be in focus, and going all in on these things can be quite satisfying.

Pisces

With Venus and Saturn heading into a tense aspect today, dear Pisces, social affairs may not work out beautifully. While it’s a minor challenge, timing can be a little off, and so can people in general! It’s best to approach the day with an open mind and a goal to avoid taking things too personally. Others may be a little withholding or distant in the best-case scenario, or unsupportive in the worst case. Revise, edit, go over, and reflect rather than make important decisions, since judgment may be a little skewed now. Fortunately, help from an unexpected source or from behind the scenes can be part of your day. It makes sense to tune out distractions as much as possible so you can focus on what matters to you.

We may not be very realistic right now – there can be some exaggeration. Minor annoyances are possible now. Contrariness or disagreements. This is not an ideal time for publicity, promotion, or legal matters. We can experience injustices. We are less inclined to consider the consequences of over-eating, over-drinking, or overdoing in general. This is a time to show some restraint. Grandiosity is not appreciated right now, and excess doesn’t go over well either. With a little self-control we can learn about what truly makes us happy.

We are competitive and possibly impatient or bored easily.

Today’s Modal Balance

CARDINAL STRONG

The Cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. We are ready to take action and to take on challenges, and we can become frustrated with stagnant conditions.

Today’s Lunar Phase

LUNAR PHASE: THIRD QUARTER

Moon from 90 to 45 degrees behind the Sun.

We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on July 8th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. Conversely, when an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. As such, depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.

Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).

**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).

The Moon through Pluto: Signs, Aspects, & Degrees

Opportunities for relationships or socializing can arise now. Interactions are open, warm, and supportive of growth.

You have difficulty coping with everyday life as you would rather be chasing spiritual rainbows. You may doubt your own wisdom, and seek truths in external sources. At times you may feel hopeless.

15TH DEGREE OF ARIES

Part of Body: Lateral lobes of brain

Sabian Symbol: A person weaving a blanket.

URANUS

URANUS IN GEMINI

(1942 – 1949) It is important to note that Uranus spends a long time in each sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation look at the house position. This is the generation which becomes focused on new forms of communication and the world’s networks. Original and inventive ideas may spring to life.

5TH DEGREE OF GEMINI

Part of Body: Upper left pulmonary lobe

Sabian Symbol: A radical magazine displays a sensational front page.

ASPECTS OF URANUS

SEXTILE NEPTUNE Orb 0°20′ Applying

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE IN ARIES

(1861/62 – 1874/75) It is important to note that Neptune takes about 164 years to make a complete cycle, spending about thirteen years in each sign. Therefore the interpretation of Neptune in the Sign applies to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation look at the house position. This generation have the potential to be spiritual pioneers. They take risks in exploring the mystical realms. This generation may also boast many pioneers in the arts.

5TH DEGREE OF ARIES

Part of Body: The eyes, left and right

Sabian Symbol: A triangle with wings.

ASPECTS OF NEPTUNE

SEXTILE PLUTO Orb 0°17′ Applying

You belong to a generation which is able to bring about social change. You are part of the changes in government and the approach to human rights. Spirituality and the occult are given more credence or power. Alternatively, some of your generation will choose to drop out of the system.

PLUTO

PLUTO IN AQUARIUS

(1777 – 1799) It is important to note that Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 to 32 years in each sign. Therefore the interpretation of Pluto in its sign applies to a generation rather than the individual. This is the generation of worldwide co-operation. People in this generation have the ability to make scientific breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity, and may be forced to change the way science is viewed. (Pluto is in Aquarius from March 23rd to June 11th, 2023, from January 20th to September 1st, 2024; from November 19th, 2024, to March 8th, 2043, and from August 31st, 2043, to January 19th, 2044).

ASPECTS OF PLUTO

26TH DEGREE OF ARIES

THE NORTH NODE

THE NORTH NODE IN PISCES

This is a quest for compassion and faith. Because you have a tendency to rigidly build structure, order and cleanliness in your own personal world and to become judgmental of others, it’s blocking your understanding of your oneness with the universe. As a result, you need to develop spiritual understanding and learn to rely on your intuition.

1ST DEGREE OF PISCES

Part of Body: Right calcaneum

Sabian Symbol: A public market.

THE SOUTH NODE

THE SOUTH NODE IN VIRGO

This is a quest for compassion and faith. You have a tendency to rigidly build structure, order and cleanliness in your own personal world and to become judgmental of others. As a result, this is blocking your understanding of your oneness with the universe. Certainly, you need to develop spiritual understanding and learn to rely on your intuition.

1ST DEGREE OF VIRGO

Part of Body: Duodenum

Sabian Symbol: In a portrait the best of a man’s traits are idealized.
