July 2023 promises lots of emotion, action and blasts from the past to reappear if by MAGIC! This month is asking that you roll with these upcoming changes and invite in an air of self belief, confidence, and new creative energy!
I will start at the beginning of the month which is sure to bring in heightened emotions and imaginative vibes…
Let’s take a look at the most important transits of the month:
July 1st, 2023 – Neptune Goes Retrograde
When Neptune goes retrograde, everything “Neptune” – intuition, dreams, longing – gets awakened and becomes more vivid, providing us with valuable insights and messages, follow your longing. See where it takes you.
Neptune is where we want to find a deeper connection and sense of unity with ourselves, with others and with the world at large. We are no longer satisfied with the mundane. We want to go beyond the physical. We long for something deeper.
Neptune allows us to tap into our subconscious patterns with extra doses of compassion and gentleness. Past life situations could be coming back up to be reexamined and acknowledged. Some of you, my Darkling’s could finally become clear around their artistic and creative urges. Another beautiful manifestation of this retrograde will be the focus on our dream states. I would advise you to get a dream journal and record what you insights you receive while sleeping. Ancestors and angels will be communicating quite heavily with this aspect.
For those with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant signs on or close to 27 degrees of Pisces or the other Mutable signs of Gemini, Virgo or Sagittarius will be most impacted by this Neptune retrograde period. Expect your intuition to be on point with amazing insights around healing yourself and others. The ancestors have important messages for you so pay attention. For everyone else, check where 27 degrees of Pisces falls in your natal chart to see where these past life memories and vibes of sensitivity will be popping back into your life.
July 3rd, 2023 – Full Moon In Capricorn
Some longer-term projects are finally moving forward. We may discover that we already have all the resources we need to succeed – so it’s more about taking a leap of faith and making things happen for real.
Remember that your hard work is making a difference. And that every little thing that you do will eventually bring you, one step at a time, closer to your goal. This is a no BS attitude to our projects and plans. There is a strict and unrelenting energy to our feelings now. In fact, it could appear some Darkling’s are downright cold or emotionless. This is a great full moon to see a promotion or a business plan finally taking off. We will be focused on long term strategy and advancement.
Expect all kinds of abundant feelings of hope and faith. If you have had your head down working on a project, there could be major success and accolades now. Many of these projects and plans could last a LONG time with this earthy duo present.
An energy of authenticity and responsibility to the highest degree. This lunation is asking that you step into your personal power and that the sexiest vibes come with taking ownership for your sh**. This Full Moon has the capacity to create great fortunes but more importantly the belief that with hard work and consistency anything and everything is possible. Standing on solid ground with a “can do it” attitude is what this ambitious full moon is all about. Long term financial rewards, bless you for your hard work and sacrifices and to remind you that tough times don’t last but tough souls do!
For my Darkling’s with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant signs on or close to 11 degrees of Capricorn or the other Cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer and Libra, expect to be majorly impacted by this lunation. Big changes and direction with your physical body, home, relationships and work life will show up. Of course, many of these could bring in wonderful beneficial changes with Jupiter’s influence.

July 10th, 2023 – Mars Enters Virgo
It’s time to pull up our sleeves and get to work. – so the upcoming weeks are a great time to look at that area of your life that is a tangled mess and sort it out.
We all have that metaphorical messy cupboard that needs clearing out – what’s yours about? With Mars in Virgo, there’s never a better time to do what you’ve been procrastinating on for months. You’ll feel so much better afterward!
July 11th, 2023 – Mercury Enters Leo
Mercury in Leo wants to roar the truth, it wants to make a statement. Mercury in Leo doesn’t care what you think. Mercury in Leo cares about presenting itself in the most authentic, truthful way possible.
In the next couple of weeks, our thinking and communication will become more proud and confident. Speak out. Deliver that message. Roar the truth.
July 17th, 2023 – North Node Enters Aries, South Node enters Libra
This is one of the most important transits of the year. When the Lunar Nodes change signs, something fundamental about our priorities and focus will shift.
The Lunar Nodes are our soul’s compass. They show us the overall direction in life (the North Node points towards the North, or the future, and the South Node towards the South, or the past). Our life is nothing else but a continuous pendulum between our past and our future.
When the Lunar Nodes change signs, they draw our attention to a different area of our life, asking us to integrate the lessons of the opposing signs – in this case, Aries and Libra.
The Lunar Nodes will highlight a certain pair of houses in your natal chart (the houses where you have Aries and Libra) that need rebalancing.
The North node in Aries/South node in Libra is here to bring in a sense of self empowerment and courageous vibes full of fiery passion and leadership. We are being asked to let go of any outdated concepts around codependency and allowing others to walk all over us. The lower vibes of this transit could be the tendency to be more selfish( overly so) and super in a hurry and not as focused on working together with mutual interests in mind.
There could be some heavy decisions and fated events that could change your life in big and bold ways. Intensity will be the norm so make sure to ride the waves with this weighty aspect.
For my darkling’s with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant sign in Aries and Libra or the other Cardinal signs of Cancer and Capricorn, expect life changing events and occurrences to happen over the next 18.5 months. Your physical appearance, home/family life, committed relationships and work life/destiny could shift in big and bold ways. For everyone else, check where Aries and Libra fall in your natal chart to see where these self fulfilling and courageous vibes will be bringing in fated events into your life.

July 17th, 2023 – New Moon In Cancer
The New Moon in Cancer opposite Pluto will ask us to deal with themes surrounding power. Bringing in heightened emotions and tender vibes.
We want to take an honest look at the role WE play as individuals, or how WE instigate power struggles, and where we tend to project our own lack of power and inner authority onto others.
This is a great new moon to begin renovating your home, spending quality time with loved ones and to purchase property. Tapping into our ability to be vulnerable and open to life’s mysteries will bring in many blessings and gifts.
Our dreams will bring in major messages and our gut instincts will be on point. For anyone with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant on or close to 25 degrees of Cancer or the other Cardinal signs, Aries, Libra and Capricorn will be most impacted by this gorgeous new moon. Expect major emotional breakthroughs with yourself and those around you. For everyone else, check where 25 degrees of Cancer falls in your natal chart to see where these comfy and tender new endeavors will be showing up.
July 22nd, 2023 – Sun Enters Leo
Happy b-day to all Leos out there!
There is a certain magic to the Leo season. No matter what your Sun sign is, this is the best time of the year to embody Sun’s qualities: authenticity, confidence, courage, radiance, warmth, and generosity.
The Sun in Leo wants you to express yourself with vigor and prestige. Time to shine and be your authentic self with no f*** to give lol! Over the next 30 days, this is a great time to be focused on tapping into your inner child and to have fun and joyful. For those with their Sun, Moon and Ascendant signs in Leo or the other Fixed signs of Taurus, Scorpio and Aquarius will be most impacted by this dazzling energy. Expect to be firm and focused on what brings you a sense of peace and pleasure. For everyone else, check where Leo falls in your natal chart to see where your artistic and bold energy will be recognized and acknowledged.
July 22nd, 2023 – Venus Goes Retrograde
Venus retrograde is here to help us pay attention to our inner world: what is still relevant? What it is not? What needs to change? What really matters to us?
Venus retrograde is a great time for self-reflection, contemplation, but also of deepening our relationships with others.
It might be useful to look back to July-September 2015 as there could be similar themes popping up. Venus retrograde in Leo is here to have us reexamine, redefine and refocus our creative passions and purpose. This is a good time to bring back past hobbies and projects that bring forth your artistic projects and ideas. As with all Venus retrogrades, ex’s could come back in droves wanting to return. I wouldn’t advise getting into a new relationship( or getting back with an ex lol), do cosmetic surgery or make major luxurious purchases while the planet of love and beauty is retrograde. Focus on your own self expression and prowess and ability to focus on your personal projects.
For those whose Sun, Moon or Ascendant is between the degrees of 12-28 degrees of Leo will be most impacted by this retrograde. Expect to be revising your passions and purpose in big and BOLD ways( the only way Leo does it) and to be turning a new leaf in life. The second most impacted group will be folks with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant signs between 12-28 degrees of the other fixed signs of Taurus, Scorpio or Aquarius. Expect to be challenged with personal matters but the level of growth and transformation once Venus turns direct will be profound and life lasting. For everyone else, check where Leo falls in your natal birth chart to see where you will be reevaluating and reassessing your love, creativity and passions.

July 25th, 2023 – Pluto Square The Lunar Nodes
This transit is a huge opportunity to release karmic patterns that we’ve been carrying for decades.
July 28th, 2023 – Mercury Enters Virgo
Our communication is articulate and clear. Other people actually get us. Mercury in Virgo quickly grasps new concepts AND it also has the discernment and analytical capability to follow through complex mental tasks, one concept at a time.
No wonder the Virgo season in general is when children go back to school – and adults get back to work.
This is an excellent transit for any type of communication or mental activity. If you want to enroll in a new class, if you want to set up your website, or write that book – now is the time!
July 2023 is a life changing month of many changes and transformation. This is the month of karmic retribution and massive awakenings. The fire energy is strong and it is time to step into a period of personal empowerment and self fulfillment. July 2023 wants to bring in ultimate satisfaction and happiness. There is a big shift from focusing on others to staying in your own lane and being comfortable in your own skin. We are all being called to come from a place of authenticity and accountability. July 2023 wants us to find the voice and power within our soul and to access its beauty and uniqueness. This dynamic month is here to bring in major new leadership opportunities, creative fun and passion and the realization that the hero/heroine you seek is looking right back at you in the mirror!
In Love and Light
