Aquarius Rising
You’re at the beginning in working through some boundaries with partners, friends, or even colleagues, or you may find yourself dealing with anxiety and fear about taking a relationship further than it’s presently gone. The best way to handle this is to gradually put some things on the table and test those boundaries head on. What you’re leading to is a significant breakthrough in how you relate, which will be much more notable by the solar eclipse on Aug 21. Consider that you need to approach relational matters with a different means of communicating. Think outside of the usual parameters for a moment, and you’ll discover that you can greatly relieve tensions and find common ground. If that doesn’t work, consider that these relationships need to change, and perhaps you’ll have to adjust how much energy and trust you invest from now on.
Life feels overwhelming when faced with things outside of your control. Understanding yourself is key to finding your power and place in the world. While you can't control fate or the chaos of life, your destiny belongs to you, something you can always strive for to gain command of your life path. Evolutionary Astrology can help.

Mars will be in Leo from July 20 through Sept 6. This is an excellent time to take the initiative in making changes in your relationships with lovers, partners, friends, and colleagues. But do be mindful of pushing yourself and others too much, thus leading to unfruitful arguments or unnecessary severing of connections. The Sun conjoins Mars on July 26 creating a peak buildup of tension and will power between both parties. This could result in a potential release of energy/tension or something more confrontational.
On the days surrounding July 24 could help improve communication in your relationships. While there may be some tensions building with Venus opposing Saturn, Mercury trine Mars helps to open a dialogue that could bring unexpected insights from close partners or vice versa.
On July 25 Mercury will begin a lengthy stay in Virgo this year due its retrograde cycle. This will greatly impact deep, intimate relationships, shared resources, as well as psychological insight. Expect some revising, reworking, and re-negotiating to take place beginning Aug 13 helping you see deeper and better manage joint-financial situations.
Mercury will move back into Leo Sept 1, again highlighting relationship interactions and negotiations. Consider that whatever major changes or breakthroughs activated by the solar eclipse on Aug 21 will gain their most notable influence around Sept 3 through 5 with Mercury and Mars’ conjunction on the eclipse point.
Mercury re-enters Virgo Sept 11 through Oct 1 which will be a good time to make better sense of complex insights and better manage money matters with others.
From July 31 until Aug 27 you’ll be in a peak cycle for creating better working relationships, improving your appearance through fitness or diet, and generally softening up the daily grind to make it more enjoyable. This process will help make daily tasks more interesting and digestible.
On the days surrounding Aug 2 you may notice some radical changes in your thinking. Feel free to explore and experiment with a new communication style either verbally or through writing. Keep this in check, as what you say may either baffle or potentially offend others. You may be feeling especially rebellious as Uranus, one of your ruling planets, is absorbing much attention. This could help you improve self-expression or rev-up your flamboyant style.
Don’t push the truth too hard on others Aug 4, as they may be a little resistant. However, the truth has the upper hand, helping you to see deeper, gaining a greater awareness of reality and the complexity of the universe.
