Your Weekly Astrology for July 28-August 3
July 29 | Moon Enters Gemini
July 30 | Venus in Leo Trine Chiron in Aries
August 1 | Moon Enters Cancer
August 2 | Venus in Leo Square Uranus in Taurus; Moon Enters Leo
Venus Trine Chiron
Chiron just began the backward spin of its retrograde in Aries last week. As it continues its descent into our underworld for deep healing, Chiron receives support from Venus in Leo via a trine aspect on July 30, 2024. A trine is when two planets find themselves 120 degrees apart in our cosmos. It’s an open flow of energy with the two supporting one another in harmony.
Chiron is a doorway for a higher and deeper perspective. During its retrograde, Chiron invites our medicine and wisdom to surface so that we can reframe our identity, autonomy, confidence, and relationship with action and desire in support of inner alchemy.
Venus is pleasure, joy, beauty, harmony and love. She is self-worth and deep ownership of herself. She is receptive, creative, abundant, and embodied. She, too, is healing.
On the day of the trine, there is beauty flowing from the cosmos. There is an invitation in your weekly horoscope to become receptive and open to the medicine available within and around us—in the breath, in our hearts, in the moment, in a flower. There is an invitation for a new perspective to find us and a doorway for our own healer to emerge.
Venus Square Uranus
As Venus continues to travel through the sign of Leo, which she entered on July 11, 2024, she comes into contact with Uranus in Taurus via a square aspect on August 2, 2024. Unlike the open flow of energy with the trine earlier in the week, squares create friction. Friction that generates energy and inspires creativity. As these two planetary bodies connect in our cosmos, they begin a conversation as do our inner Venus and inner Uranus.
In astrology, Uranus is sharp, quick, and cerebral. It is heightened intuition and flashes of inspiration, liberation and freedom. Always looking ahead, Uranus is here to evolve. Venus is love, worthiness, beauty, harmony and partnership.
This square is an opportunity to be in conversation with ourselves. Where are our Uranian aspects feeling the need to break free? And what does this mean for our Venusian selves that desire harmony, comfort, and pleasure? There is a space where these two inner archetypes meet, support one another, and begin to move and dance in the same direction. A space of liberation, balance, beauty, and action accessed through an understanding of our own worth. On this day, open the dialogue. Observe what is there.
Your Weekly Horoscope for July 28-August 3
Be in conversation with yourself—all of parts of yourself. You are a walking expression of each celestial archetype. Sometimes these parts of yourself are engaged in a harmonious dance, sometimes they are in total contradiction with each other.
As you experience the brief moment of time that Chiron offers a reclamation of yourself in your own authority, you have the opportunity to begin bringing all parts of yourself into communion and collaboration. Your weekly horoscope explores how you can better understand and be receptive to this change. Read for your rising sign.
