July 2018 Love TarotScopes—
for All Zodiac Signs!
Welcome to your July 2018 LOVE TarotScope —
Eclipse season is here!
Welcome to your July 2018 LOVE TarotScope! The month begins with warrior Mars moving retrograde in Aquarius opposing the North Node in Leo. When Mars is retrograde, he asks us to pause and rethink our position. How have we been using our energy? Where do we need to focus? How can we best release our anger or our sexuality? Although Mars is usually known for impatience and hasty action, we may feel that we just don’t have the energy to continue on our current path. We may need to develop a new strategy to reach our goals. This is not the best time to push our agenda forward, but instead to “tread water,” rest and plan. We must pause to think about the path we are on, where we have been, and where we would like to go once Mars starts moving forward again at the end of the Summer.
With Mars in Aquarius, opposite the North Node in Leo, we may team up with our soul tribe to fight for a social cause that helps others, or the world. The needs of the many may become more important than the needs of the individual at this time. The North Node in Leo is calling us—as part of a global family—to recognize our sovereign divinity and generously share our unique gifts with the world. We must discover and follow our true karmic path, while also fighting to respectfully allow others freedom to do the same.
On July 12, 2018, a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 20 degrees in sensitive Cancer opposes intense Pluto in Capricorn. This could feel like a battle between good and evil as we deal with the intensity of emotions that may erupt in our lives. This powerfully charged New Moon Eclipse can help us break free from past conditioning, restrictive patterns of behavior, old familial programming, and/or power struggles with those who want to keep us locked in situations that are no longer working. The New Moon Eclipse in Cancer is calling us to feed our collective soul, to nurture and heal not only our loved ones but also ourselves. Pluto in Capricorn represents the old regime trying to hold on to its position through power struggles, manipulation, coercion, rigid regulations, and hidden agendas. New beginnings at this time may not be easy but can lead to major change and transformation that will bring us back to life as we connect with our true karmic purpose and join with others at the soul level.
The polarities of Mars in Aquarius opposite the North Node in Leo, and Pluto in Capricorn opposing the New Moon Eclipse in Cancer can bring tension as we try to balance energy and commitments between home, work, family, friends, and self. The way out is through honoring both sides with loving compromise and the blending of opposing energies. We must not succumb to extremes of emotion, or become too rigid at either polarity point, digging our heals or heads into the sand.
Heaven helps us find a way out of the storm with blessings from a Grand Earth Trine—Venus in Virgo, Saturn in Capricorn, and Uranus in Taurus. Innovative ideas can bring freedom and new security as we drop worn-out systems that have kept us feeling powerless within a world-view of fear, greed, and scarcity. These planets combine their energies to remind us that love, selfless service, and disciplined commitment to hard work can bring healing to our lives, our society, and our beloved Mother Earth, resulting in unexpected freedom and abundance for all sentient beings. Rays of light at the end of a dark and dismal tunnel!
Mercury goes retrograde from July 25th until August 18th, adding delays and mixed messages into the mix. Another reason to slow down, to prepare, and tweak our plans.
On July 27, 2018, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 4 degrees Aquarius squares off with rebellious Uranus in Taurus, crashes into hot-tempered Mars in Aquarius, then opposes the regal Sun in Leo. Things may come to a head at this time as the Full Moon Eclipse brings ongoing tensions and emotions to the surface. With Uranus forming a T-square of tension, anything can happen—secrets may be revealed, deception unmasked, lightning may strike! Mars squaring Uranus can bring impulsive action and angry outbursts. We must try to keep a cool head, drive carefully, and think twice before saying or doing anything reckless! The Sun squaring Uranus can bring ego battles or sudden attacks from unexpected quarters. Take a deep breath, lay low and ride out the storm by going deep, practicing meditation, or anything that prevents us from ill-considered over-reaction.
Expansive Jupiter in penetrating Scorpio gives supportive energy to diplomatic Venus in discerning Virgo as she trines dark lord Pluto in calculating Capricorn. Passions are running deep, hot and “over-the-top” at this time. New or existing love relationships can be intense and passionate. With Venus in opposition to Neptune, we need to be careful of deception or illusion. If it looks too good to be true, check all facts. Don’t be fooled by the glamour of a shiny new “Bitcoin” glistening in the sun. This combination is great, however, for creative self-expression. Tackle that art, writing, or music project to release any powerful emotions that may swim to the surface during this Full Moon.
If something gets eclipsed from our lives this month, either in relationships, work, or life, let it go! The universe is leading the way to something better by freeing us from our self-created prisons so that we may live life with more authenticity, love, and joy!
Don’t worry, it’s all a test—will we pass or fail? Be courageous, step into the light, and “may the force be with you!”
