Uranus in Gemini – Mercury retrograde in Leo – Jupiter in Cancer
This is your exciting month of July astrology weather overview about the main points happening in July 2025. Reminder: None of the transits, aspects and planets are good or bad. It doesn’t have to be negative, astrology is about using your energy as consciously as you can to maximize the best that can happen and to minimize or direct challenging energies in the most productive places.
4 July: Venus enters Gemini
So what’s interesting in the month of July is that when Uranus enters Gemini, Venus will already be there, and on the same day Venus is going to make a perfect trine to Pluto in Aquarius. This is positive and stimulating for anything ruled by Venus: relationship dynamics, love, self worth, money, talents and abilities. Venus in Gemini is charming, curious, witty and socially skilled with all types of people. Here Venus loves and value education, language and literature more attractive than good looks and money. Deep display of affection can be a turn off as light emotionality and superficial social situations are preferred.
7 July: Uranus enters Gemini
2025 has already been iconic astrologically because all the outer planets are changing signs this year, and we’ve already experienced a little bit of Saturn and Neptune changing signs from Pisces into Aries. This month we are experiencing the planet Uranus, which has been in Taurus since 2019, is now going into a new sign, for the first time in 84 years Uranus will enter Gemini, and this will happen on 7 July 2025. Uranus will stay in Gemini until it gets to just 1’5 degrees of Gemini – then it will turn retrograde on 6 September, until momentarily leaving Gemini on 8 November 2025.
Finally Uranus will return back into Gemini full time and get comfortable there on 27 April 2026 until 23 May 2033. Nonetheless, when an outer planet first changes sign it gives you a little preview of how things are going to happen over the long run related to that planet’s energy.
Uranus is the great awakener of the zodiac, it wants to liberate you. Especially if you feel like you’re in a rut, always doing the same old thing, Uranus comes in that stuck area of your life, and turns things around and after you can be sure that it’s not going to be business as usual anymore. Those of us open to and waiting for change, we will love this energy as what we hoped for will finally come true. The more we embrace sudden pivotal events coming our way, the better and easier the new experiences coming our way will be. That’s true if one has squares or opposition to personal planets and angles then yes it’s going to feel more abrupt and shocking, however Uranus will only remove what’s outdated and has served its purpose, it only wants to free you.
Uranus is an unusual planet of novelty and so it doesn’t want the ordinary, for example: if you’re using the whole sign house system, and you’re a Virgo, and if Uranus is in your 10th house; don’t expect that you will do a static 9 to 5 accounting job because Uranus means innovation and independence.
Gemini is associated with communication, thoughts, the 3rd house, siblings, learning, so Uranus is going to revolutionize and shift the way that we communicate, travel short distance and think. Uranus is a higher octave of Gemini, and Gemini is ruled by Mercury, so Uranus in Gemini will bring more AI electrifying waves of change, new ideas and a heightened awareness of the power of our thoughts.
Uranus never takes away something that is no longer suiting you, Uranus mostly takes away something that is outdated and most likely you had a feeling about that, you unconsciously thought about it for too long… The advice is to not resist change when it comes to liberate you from stagnation.
10 July: Full Moon in Capricorn (18’50 degrees)
How are you using and managing your own authority? Capricorn means business, structure, government, rules, authority. Full moons are always times of transitions, endings or fulfillment. If this is an ending, it is more likely going to be a favorable and fulfilling type of an ending because this full moon makes positive aspects to the nodes of the moon and to Mars in Virgo, however as always with general transits forecast you have to take into account how this will tie up in your personal natal chart, for example it could be an ending in your career path, or you find out that there are different protocols and systems that you have to follow in business, your boss might leave or you’re retiring.
24 July: New Moon in Leo (2’08 degrees)
For a lot of us (especially if you have planets or angles: Ascendant, MC, Descendant or IC, within 3 degree orb of influence of this new moon: meaning in the first 5 degrees of the fixed signs; Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius, because this new moon will create a square aspect to other fixed signs) this New Moon might be tricky because on top of Mercury being retrograde and under the beam of the Sun which will cause some misunderstandings at that time, this New Moon will be opposing Pluto in Aquarius and this is likely translating into power struggles, ego/self-importance issues and major clashes.
