This week feels like a cosmic deep breath before a brave new chapter.
We’re officially in retrograde season now, which means reflection, release, and realignment, but there’s nothing quiet about it. Between Uranus shaking up the collective, a Full Moon with destiny all over it, and Saturn turning backward to test your resolve, the skies are handing you the mic and saying: what are you really here for?
Expect wake-up calls, clarity, and a reminder that your wildest dreams need space to land.
Let’s dive in.
Ok, so with Mercury in pre-retrograde shadow and Neptune stationing retrograde a couple of days ago, it’s safe to say we are officially in retrograde season.
I won’t elaborate on that here because I already wrote a full guide for navigating this particular season, but we’ll soon have five planets retrograde at once (well, four plus Chiron, but you get it). You can find the Retrograde Deep Dive here.
That said: I’ll say this again (and again), because it is so freaking relevant…and I cannot stress enough…take advantage of this taste-test preview of your soul’s truest alignment that Saturn and Neptune are gifting us right now.
Saturn and Neptune continue inching closer to their exact conjunction (next year), and the energy is already potent. This long-game aspect invites you to build the scaffolding of your wildest dreams.
What kind of future are you dreaming into being?
And what needs to be cleared now to make space for that?

✨ Uranus enters Gemini
Uranus will now sit in Gemini (for 8 years, minus a dip back into Taurus during its retrograde later this year).
This moment is a taster of what Uranus in Gemini is here to shake up.
Uranus is the Great Awakener: breakthroughs, unexpected change, alchemy — and when I say alchemy, I mean the true kind, turning your base metals into gold.
Gemini brings duality, intelligence, ingenuity, communication, and social connection.
Uranus in Gemini is giving shake up to wake up energy.
It challenges anything restricting your freedom. It invites you to think in terms of why not both?, not just one or the other. It’s adaptable, but its shadow can also be restless and flaky.
And let’s be real, those wake-up calls may or may not feel gentle, depending on how aligned you already are with your path.
The truth? Uranus in Gemini is here to set you free.
2025 is a wild year of planetary shifts, and Uranus is the last cab off the rank, but it packs the punch.
Treat the next 6–12 months as your time to shed what no longer fits, and make space for the magic Uranus wants to alchemize in your everyday.
✨ Want to know what Uranus in Gemini is shaking up for you? Comment your rising sign, and I’ll tell you what house it’s lighting up — or book a Soul Weather Report for a deeper dive.
🌸 Venus in Gemini trine Pluto Rx in Aquarius
This is deep, magnetic, irresistible energy, where love, beauty, creativity, and connection go below the surface and touch something profound. You may feel drawn to what’s raw and real, or find your own values and desires intensified. Authentic intimacy, soulful attraction, and a deeper sense of what you truly value are on offer if you’re willing to look beyond appearances.
This is the kind of energy that makes love and creativity feel magnetic and irresistible, pulling you into what’s real and meaningful.
🌸 Venus sextile Neptune Rx in Aries (+ Venus–Saturn energy lingering from Sunday)
This is a rare and beautiful balancing act:
Neptune dreams, Saturn grounds, and Venus dances between them.
This is the fantasy and the plan. The download and the structure.
If love, beauty, or abundance flows into your life now, ask:
Is this real? (you bet your sweet ass it is) …and can we build it to last?
🔥 Lilith in Scorpio sextile Mars in Virgo
Our empowered dark feminine (Lilith) meets the divine masculine (Mars) in harmony.
Expect action born from authenticity, passion rooted in sovereignty, and creativity fuelled by liberation. Especially potent for lovers, creators, and anyone moving from that deep soul place.
Tuesday July 8
🌑 Lilith square Mercury in Leo
The wild feminine wants her say…and she might snatch the mic right out of Mercury in Leo’s hands.
You’re likely to feel a pull to speak your truth, but also a fear of being “too much.”
The challenge here is staying grounded while reclaiming your voice, otherwise it can come out reactive or sharp and rub people the wrong way.
Speak your truth and stay rooted in love.
Wednesday July 9 & Thursday July 10
🌙 A pause from the skies — perfect for intention-setting and prepping your Full Moon ritual. And Babe? I got you. Ritual below!
Friday July 11
🌕 Full Moon in Capricorn (6:36 AM)
This Full Moon trines the North Node and sextiles the South Node — and yes, all Full Moons are for release, but this one? This one says:
The start of a brand new you.
It’s a fresh start in the area of your life where Capricorn sits: career? family? communication? (For me it’s 1st house…literally “brand new me” vibes.)
Capricorn is legacy, leadership, systems, boss energy, earthy and grounded (and maybe a little stubborn… who, me?).
So: what’s got to go to make room for your boldest future?

Quiet skies — integrate your Full Moon magic.
Sunday July 13
☀️ Sun in Cancer trine North Node
Ahhh.
Both Sun and Moon this week dance with the Nodes of Fate.
The Sun is your identity. The North Node is your soul purpose.
After Friday’s Full Moon release, this trine opens doors, smooths paths, and gives you ease and harmony…as long as it aligns with your highest path.
Go get it.
🔥Also Sunday…Saturn stations retrograde
Saturn, Lord of Karma, Father Time, Deliverer of Lessons.
Now retrograde, he invites you to redefine your goals and commitments, reassess your structures, make sure they’re aligned with your vision…and yes, Saturn still wants you to be realistic.
But this time? The Universe also says: dream big. Really big.
Just make sure your foundations are bold enough to hold what you’re building.
You may revisit old lessons or patterns this season, not to punish you, but to make sure you’ve truly let go of what keeps you small.
