July 23
Sun opposite Pluto
Few planetary aspects are as unforgiving as a Sun/Pluto opposition and given that this will be the first one to occur in the zodiac signs of Leo and Aquarius you can expect it to be especially powerful. Whatever thin hope you were banking on will be abruptly removed. Beginnings are over before they’ve begun, endings are as swift as they are premature, and any chance to appeal or regroup is immediately snuffed out which means you’ll have no choice but to accept defeat. Sun/Pluto oppositions – especially in fixed signs – are done deals. However the Sun always rises on a new day. It’s something we all know, but don’t fully appreciate until we’ve reached the nadir. Moreover the Sun doesn’t rise any brighter or stronger then when it’s traveling through its own sign. This won’t restore what you’ve lost, but it will pave the way to a new future. As July is succeeded by August, you will see your faith rekindled, your heart emboldened, and your optimism restored. The Sun in Leo is an indefatigable reminder that tomorrow is another day. Signs most affected: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius
