July 2026 Astrology: A Rare Turning Point

Aerin Fogel joins me to discuss the astrology of July 2026, a month containing some of the most anticipated astrological alignments in recent memory. Jupiter's recent entrance into Leo activates a rare convergence of long-term planetary cycles, forming a sextile with Uranus in Gemini, a trine with Neptune in Aries, and an opposition with Pluto in Aquarius while Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto simultaneously form harmonious aspects with one another. This remarkable configuration signals a major turning point in collective events, geopolitics, and personal life stories. Although the exact alignments culminate between July 15 and July 24, the entire month is charged with volatility and breakthrough potential. Mars in Gemini activates the pattern at the beginning of July, forming an explosive conjunction with Uranus while simultaneously making aspects to Neptune and Pluto. At the same time, Mercury remains retrograde in Cancer until stationing direct on July 23, encouraging inner reflection and thoughtful adaptation amid rapidly unfolding external changes. Saturn then stations retrograde on July 26, the same day the true lunar nodes shift into Aquarius and Leo, further amplifying the significance of the Aquarius Full Moon on July 29 as it illuminates the profound transitions taking shape.
