Powerful Full Moon, Many Stressful-Developmental Periods, Trump Astrology

There are four main periods of astrological intensity, which may correspond to significant developments; i.e. stress.

• July 2, Mars opposite Pluto, Mercury quincunx Saturn
• July 9, Full Moon tightly opposed Pluto, Mars quincunx Saturn
• July 18, Mars square Uranus, and biquintile Saturn
• July 26, Sun and Mars conjunct
• July 29, Sun and Mercury aspecting Saturn

And then there is at least two day of more delightful configurations:

• July 5, Venus conjunct the Pleiades, Sun square Jupiter, trine Neptune
• July 25, Moon and Mercury conjunct Regulus, with North Node close by

Donald Trump Astrology for July 2017

Interestingly, the July 2 and 9 dates configure tightly into the chart of US President Donald Trump, basically aspecting his Jupiter.  Jupiter likes to act with broad strokes, proclaiming bold promises, and with Pluto acting upon it, caution (and common sense likely) is thrown to the wind.

Then over July 25 the Moon and Mercury come into very close conjunction with the fixed star Regulus, the Heart of the Lion of the Leo constellation.  Donald Trump’s Mars and his Ascendant are in very close to Regulus, which is one of the indicators of his “successes” and fame (or infamy to others).  Hopefully, as the Moon and Mercury are benefic planets it may be something more pleasant than the latest Mika Brzezinski bleeding-face Twitter storm. 

There will be plenty of other relatively less powerful configurations all through this month, which you can read about in detail in the day by day section at the end of this article.

July Full Moon

The full moon of July 8-9 is particularly powerful as it is tightly conjunct/opposite Pluto and Mars and Saturn make a quincunx.  It’s quite a malefic brew of energies, and the full moon has an energizing effect on behavioral elements on us humans.

You can think of a full moon as a giant reflector of solar energy in the sky, enhancing the already present solar rays, which actually energize every other planet in the solar system.  The other planets reflecting back different wavelengths of the solar energy.

For instance, if you find Mars in the sky, it has a definite reddish hue to it, more passionate and also associated with the color of blood.  Venus, Mercury, and Jupiter reflect a brilliant and beautiful light, which seem to give hope, joy and wonderment to life.  Saturn has a very cold, grey appearance in the night sky, reflecting a more somber tone.

The outer planets of course, those not visible to the naked eye, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, have their own hues, but you need a telescope to see them (or buzz by them in a spacecraft).  Modern technology helps reveal their wonders.

Using just the traditional, ancient planets, those seen by the naked eye by the stargazers of old, in a horoscope create a very adequate picture of an individual and his life-cycles.  This is so especially using the sidereal zodiac I’ve discovered, and the various rulerships of houses and divisional charts.  The outer planets in a chart deliver some extra added boost to a reading at various times, more so in adding their effects as a transiting influence I have found.

Saturday, July 8
Mars enters the sidereal sign of its debilitation, Cancer.  Ushering in a period of about a month and a half of more heated reactiveness to threatening situations.  Bear in mind that tomorrow we are moving into some very intense astrology which should already be manifesting.

Sunday, July 9
Full Moon
Deep and intense period, possibly pulling out all sorts of suppressed or inhibited feelings, which may leap out from the accumulated internal pressure.  Keep the steam valve operational, because now you may be able to channel such energies purposefully and effectively.  Courage may be required, but the urgency and the pressures thereof alleviate quickly.  (Mars quincunx Saturn, Sun opposite Pluto)

Monday, July 10
Mercury conj Hyades
Mental stimulation may be strange/weird/unsettling, bringing you to new, but significant, places.  (Mercury sesquiquadrate Saturn, Mercury biquintile Neptune)

Saturn moves back into sidereal Scorpio until October, signifying possibly a deeper and more trying experience living through life, as it has been for the last three years or so, while it was sojourning through Scorpio.

Friday, July 14
Attitudes may be stressed as we move through trying and basically un-smooth times.  Keep a smile in your heart, as the negative energies lose their punch soon.  Nevertheless, a philosophical and optimistic outlook is possible.  The Sun moves into sidereal Cancer, bringing things more up close and personal for the next 30 days.  (Sun quincunx Saturn, Mercury quincunx Neptune, Mercury sextile Jupiter)

Last Quarter Moon
Interesting life and relationship developments continue, perhaps remember not to invest too much in trying to force your ideas on others, or be inconsiderate in your actions.  (Mercury quincunx Pluto, Venus semisquare Uranus)

Monday, July 17
Intention and force may struggle with seemingly unyielding or uncooperative situations or elements, potentially bringing deeper issues to the surface with unpredictable results.  Emotions may lead down path of little real promise.  (Mars square Uranus, Mars biquintile Saturn, Venus square Neptune)

Tuesday, July 18
Motivation may be elusive, as is the energy or desire to get out of bed.  Applied intentions however may yield amazing and subtle results.  Good people and situations may come into alignment, providing opportunities for society, culture and happiness.  (Mars sesquiquadrate Neptune, Venus trine Jupiter)

Moon conj Aldebaran 3:37 pm GMT
Realism in perspective, sagacity in relationships.  Calm, ordered application.  Let’s get serious and get to work.  Note Moon in close conjunction to fixed star Aldebaran according to your time zone. (Mercury trine Saturn)

Thursday, July 20
Moon conj Venus 11:13 am GMT
Early on the Moon conjoins Venus causing delight and comfort.  Soon after the Sun connecting up with Saturn and Uranus may elicit stresses and conflicts.  Stay focused and learn to accommodate new perspectives.  Relationships move into deeper territory with much that can be gained therefrom.  (Sun biquintile Saturn and square Uranus, Venus quincunx Pluto, Mercury biquintile Pluto)

Friday, July 21
Moon at Perigee 5:09 pm GMT
Actions may stem from dysfunctional attitudes, beliefs or motivations.  Energy may be difficult to access, chronic conditions may intensify.  Determination, however, may yield subtle successes.  (Sun sesquiquadrate Neptune)

Saturday, July 22
Mercury moves over the North Node, inciting new connections and life-developments, as well as important communications, discoveries and revelations.  This aspect is not as exact as those involving planet-planet; the nodes are not real moving points but geometric projections into the sky and there are two ways of measuring the node positions, at times a degree apart.  So this influence I am attempting to describe could be over period of up to a week or so before or after the date I’ve indicated here.

Sunday, July 23
New Moon
No peaking influences

Monday, July 24
Relationships may face difficult tests of love; perseverance, faith and forgiveness will be required.  Remembering that the other person many times is a close mirror to your own psyche, and we shouldn’t be so quick to cast blame, shame and all the rest.  New ways of seeing things will open to help with new people and unusual situations to help get you out of your old self that needs some changes.  (Venus opposite Saturn, Mercury trine Uranus)
