Capricorn, although your mind is working overtime and you are quite busy at work, July 2013 will be a lot more progressive and forward moving than the previous months have been. Your ruler Saturn who currently sits at the top of your solar chart in the area to do with your career and life direction is moving forward again, ensuring that not only your career prospects are falling back into place but your whole life path that has been under review for some time. Whatever the choices you made over the past few months, it would have, at times, felt like an uphill struggle and you have wondered whether you are on the right path at all. In July, some of the seeds you started to sow since late last year and in particular during the eclipses in April and May, are beginning to bear fruits. If you look back to this time last year, you will now notice how far you have come.

Not only is Saturn moving forward again, Jupiter is now also there to provide some support and remove some of the obstacles that were in your way over these past months. If you are facing conflict at work, you are now dealing with it with optimism and faith in the best possible outcome. However, you will be busy in July and you will need to watch your stress level and your digestion. This will be crucial not only this month but until the summer of 2014. With so much happening in your 6^th house of work, you would do well joining a health club and perhaps see a nutrition to provide you with some advice on healthy eating habits – they don’t say healthy body, healthy mind for no reason.

Talking about the mind, with Pluto in your 12^th house or endings and the subconscious, in a square to Uranus in your house of the mind, communication and short-distance travel you are busy trying to figure out what’s it all about. Without even focusing in it in great detail, you are letting repressed parts of yourself that are weak and undeveloped be brought to full awareness so that you can face them and integrate them into your personality. July 2013 especially will be a time of you release blocked energy and those invisible barriers that hold you back. This can indeed happen through therapy or self-analysis and through your dreams through which you digest a lot of what is and has been on your mind. With Jupiter now also part of the picture, forming a T-square with Uranus and Pluto, this is a hugely productive time to work on fears and anxieties as well as your understanding of the world. Equally, new experiences and contacts you now make will also help you re-confirm your faith and re-gain a broader perspective of life.

So, although there may still be some challenges involved in around work in July, this is nevertheless a very productive time and perhaps there is a sense that almost nothing can now stop you from reaching your goals if only you put your mind to it. A lot of the most successful people in the world have T-squares in their chart natally as this combination focuses their energies into a certain areas of life and although these aspects can be stressful, ultimately, they push you to bigger and better things.

So after a hectic start to the month, which really is just a continuation of June’s activities, the new Moon on 7^th July in Gemini heralds a time when new work projects land on your desk, perhaps including changes around your colleagues which means you have to take on some of the extra work. Although your critical thinking is at an all-time high, Mercury is still retrograde until 20^th July 2013, so make sure you watch the details and be patient if projects don’t run as smoothly as you’d like them to.

This new Moon is in the nakshatra of Ardra, ruled by Rahu - the nakshtra of the wild one and the risk-taker. It is a somewhat shrewd placement where we communicate with wild force to elevate ourselves. The ruler of this nakshatra is currently in your 10^th house together with your ruler, so again, this new Moon very much relates to your career and life direction – a new start in this respect that you are ready to take on enthusiastically.

After mid-month, the Sun moves on into your house of committed relationships as always at this time of the year. What’s different this year is that the full Moon on 22^nd July 2013 in your own sign shines the spotlight on you, however, heavily aspected by the North node / Rahu and Saturn in your house of life direction. Single or not, this can be a major turning point for you and your relationship status.

Have a mind-blowing month, Capricorn!
