Summary

Cancer season closes out with the Sun squaring Eris in Aries at 25 deg and Chiron in Aries at 27 deg, which further emphasizes the Cancer-Aries tension that began at the Solstice. Emotional chaos and triggers are heightened that can lead you to new self-awareness around where you need support and self-empowerment. Mars in Virgo reaches the South Node in Virgo at 19 and 20 deg from July 20 to 23, revealing what is no longer working and not bringing the results you want. Mars in Virgo seeks order, improvements and excellence, but the South Node is closing out what is not aligned with your intuitive guidance. Venus in Gemini brings a square to Mars and the Nodes of Fate at the same time, which activates more linear thinking, potential choices, and miscommunication issues. The Sun enters Leo on July 22 and creates an invigorating sextile to Uranus in Gemini that ignites creative expressions, more authenticity, and new courageous beginnings to explore. It's quite an interesting week! More to discuss in this week's podcast, including the rare occurrence of Saturn's biggest moon, Titan, creating a shadow on the ringed planet for the first time in 15 years.

0:00.0	Welcome to Intuitive Astrology with Molly McCord. Thank you so much for joining me today as we
0:05.9	discuss the astrological energies of July 16th until July 23rd. We have a lot going on here as we move
0:14.9	into the second half of July, including Mercury retrograde beginning on July 17th Mars in Virgo
0:23.5	conjunct the south node the Sun enters Leo and then has some dynamic aspects to

0:34.5	going on that we're going to move into and discuss not only today

0:44.7	new beginnings are occurring, new parts of yourself are awakening to more of what you want
0:50.7	in this life and perhaps you're really feeling the energy of motivation, courage,

1:08.1	to my Spotify and Apple podcast listeners. I'm so sorry that last Wednesday's
1:14.5	show was not uploaded to these platforms. That was my error. I take full responsibility and I
1:21.6	apologize that it wasn't there. I was in the midst of packing for two back-to-back experiences and trips, and somehow I thought
1:31.4	it was done and it wasn't. So my apologies, because I appreciate your continued listening.
1:36.8	And the episodes are always on YouTube as well. So if you can't find it on the normal distribution
1:42.4	platforms, it is on YouTube.

1:50.9	But again, my apologies for that.
1:53.2	I did have a great vacation with my son. And then I was on a silent retreat from Friday to Monday.
1:57.5	That was incredible.
