Virgo Rising
There’s likely to be a lot going on behind the scenes right now, much that you don’t presently see. The urge to take action on critical matters is strong, but don’t jump before fully assessing the situation carefully. The problem is that you may be harboring some unacknowledged feelings that could be clouding your judgement and preventing you from seeing things as clearly as possible. Channel this energy toward some much needed self-reflection which may require that you step back from the action to gain insight about what you need to do next, as well as coming to terms with pent up anger, fear, or anxiety. You’ll gain a clearer perspective within about two weeks at the Full Moon. If you don’t feel fully confident about what do next, turn inward. Some solitude, meditation, and general relaxation will help you to get more in tune with your inner self. This inward turning may gift you the insight needed to take the appropriate action, especially by the solar eclipse on Aug 21.
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 21 through Sept 6. Consider that there’s no need to rush through things. Avoid making drastic decisions or prematurely jumping to conclusions. It might be best to stay in the shadows. You’ll have more ability to successfully assert your will after Sept 6. The Sun conjoins Mars on July 26 creating a peak buildup of psychic energy which could manifest as frustrations or anger misdirected. Turn your attention inward and deeply reflect on what you’re feeling, there you will come to better understand yourself.
The days surrounding July 24 could gift you sudden personal and psychological insight. You may glimpse behind the veil, either uncovering secrets within current, developing events or even something seemingly strange or supernatural. Keep your mind open and ears receptive.
On July 25 Mercury will begin a lengthy stay in Virgo this year due its retrograde cycle. This highlights your willpower and ability to make decisions affecting your life direction. Mercury turns retrograde on Aug 13 which may have you second-guessing your actions and the choices on the table. Don’t feel pressured to make a final commitment just yet.
Mercury will move back into Leo Sept 1, placing the spotlight again on hidden matters and stepping back behind the scenes for a moment. Sept 3 through 5 will activate those changes that began around the solar eclipse on Aug 21, creating some notable shifts in your awareness of what’s been under your radar.
Mercury re-enters Virgo Sept 11 through Oct 1, at which point you’ll have a better sense of where to take those next steps and make some practical decisions for your life.
From July 31 until Aug 27 Venus will help you make some much needed connections. Networking is the name of the game, and you’ll find much benefit from reaching out, asking for help, advice, and feedback. Personal goals are great, but a shared vision is ever more powerful.
The days surrounding Aug 2 could correlate with psychic eruptions or even unexpected resources coming through a partnership of some kind. Revelatory personal insights could give you greater psychological realizations leading to greater self-understanding.
Around Aug 4 you might find that an increase in resources could tempt you to squander on risky amusement or a casual fling. Think carefully before you splurge as it may not be the investment you had in mind.
