The beginning and end of July bring a welcome reprieve from challenging transits occurring throughout the rest of the month. The middle of July, though ... well, that's another story.
On July 3, the full Moon rises in Capricorn, leaving you torn between using your brain or following your heart. The only real solution, of course, will be one that allows you to do both!
Also on July 3, Mars leaves Virgo to trot into Libra. For the next few weeks, you'll want to channel most of your energy toward individual relationships. Proactive cooperation will be vital at this time.
After July 3's burst of activity, the stars seem to shut down for a ten-day siesta ... and that's when the trouble begins.

First, Uranus turns retrograde on July 13, when any innovative plans you had will need to be reconsidered. Make sure you focus first on inner changes geared toward self-improvement -- and then you can worry about the outer world.
Then, on July 15, Mercury turns retrograde. You can hope for the best all you want over the ensuing weeks, but be prepared for Murphy's Law to kick into high gear!
Also on July 15, the Sun squares off unpleasantly against Saturn, making setbacks the order of the day. All you can do is face your mistakes, find solutions and move on.
Next, Mars comes along, first squaring Pluto on July 17 before opposing Uranus on July 19. These aspects can lead to explosive, frustrating and high-strung days during which you'll be very accident-prone and want to act rashly. You'll want to exercise caution as you simply grit your teeth and do your best to grin and bear it.

Fortunately, Jupiter will be there to help out on both July 17, when it pairs up with Mars, and on July 22, when it teams with Uranus. The giant, jovial planet will bring positive energy to help counter the difficulties of the preceding days.
Also on July 22, the Sun moves into fiery and colorful Leo, a transit that will boost your social life, bestow merriment and bring you more parties and entertainment than you'll know what to do with!
Finally, after another lengthy cosmic respite in late July, the month ends on a high note as Uranus forms a pleasant trine with the Sun on July 31 -- and opens doors to new possibilities!
