eND OF JUNE/JULY 2026 FORECAST

(READ THE MESSAGE FROM "AIM" BY CLICKING "MORE" AND FINDING THE HEADING. A MUCH MORE OPTOMISTIC MESSAGE FOR ALL OF HUMANITY. 

The full Moon on June 29th is packed with astrological adjustments. It is in the sign of Capricorn at 8 degrees (7:57PM EDT). 

With three T-squares, one Yod and Mercury stationing retrograde on the same day at 26 degrees of Cancer (1:36PM EDT) six hours before the full Moon. Yikes. 

The Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter are all in Cancer with Jupiter in the late 29 degrees. 

It is the sign of Cancer that is feeling fulfilled on one level but ready to face themselves directly on the subjective side of life. Mediation and deep reflection till Mercury turns direct on July 23rd at 16 degrees all in the sign of Cancer. 

Those with Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Capricorn or Cancer need to find the balance between work and family. 

Capricorn can be a workaholic, and Cancer can become too attached to home and family. Both signs are challenged till the next new Moon on July 12th. 

These opposite signs need to avoid extremes. Cancer feels guilty about everything and the need to let go of guilt which is the hallmark for this full Moon and Mercury retrograde period. 

The affirmation repeated daily is “I FORGIVE MYSELF; I AM READY TO LET GO AND LET GOD.” “I AM INNOCENT.” 

It’s the signs of Cancer, Aries, Gemini, and Sagittarius caught up in the T-squares and Sagittarius is in the eye of a Yod.

This is a time when America is preparing to celebrate it's 250th anniversary. These tensions make keeping security during this time more difficult. Let’s pray the celebrations are not met with any difficulties. 

It is the sign of Libra that can help the signs of Cancer, Aries, and Sagittarius find balance so seek their advice if your life becomes too intense. 

Some doors open for the sign of Cancer and Gemini since they are in sextile within the Yod. These signs should pay attention to those who enter their lives offering major opportunities to grow. 

Jupiter will enter the sign of Leo on the last day of June giving those with Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Leo good luck over the next year. 

Leo loves to celebrate. At one degree on July 4th, a massive celebration is about to happen that includes us on Earth and those who would like to join the party from other dimensions. 

The entertainment industry will be busy this summer as Mars leaves the financial sign of Taurus and enters Gemini by the end of June. 

July in 2026 for America is the most intense month of this year. 

The sign of Leo will experience some good luck as Jupiter moved into Leo on June 29th. This energy of luck and abundance lasts for one year. See which house or houses Leo is ruling to see which areas of your life will experience expansion. 

Mercury just stationed retrograde in the sign of Cancer, the sign America was born under, and we start the 250th birthday of America on July 4th. 

The sign of Cancer values family life, the mother, being near the ocean or a body of water, moodiness as the Moon is the natural ruler of Cancer and is waxing and waning all the time, they are patriotic and value Politics, real estate and having a place to call home is the protective shell surrounding the crab and carrying their home with them wherever they go and childhood memories. 

Mercury retrograde will be looking more closely at all the areas of life just mentioned, especially for the signs of Cancer and Capricorn, the opposite sign of Cancer. 

Aries and Libra are the other cardinal signs, and they will also be affected especially when it comes to relationships. Better to wait till Mercury retrograde is over and spinning forward by August 1st to think about what you are going to say and how it will affect the other person in the future.

Mercury stations retrograde at 26 degrees and will station direct on July 23rdat 16 degrees of Cancer. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Cancer, you are going through the most inner dialogue and getting ready for a new life. 

Questions may surround your family, home, relationship with your mother and where America is going as it approaches a new election cycle in the November midterms. America is born under the sign of Cancer. 

Issues surrounding security for the public around this July 4th as thousands of Americans gather outdoors and in the streets. Let’s pray everything runs smoothly and everyone is safe. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA. I have a sale on all my services till July 5th. If you’ve been waiting to get a reading or any other service, now is the time to save as the next sale will be just after Thanksgiving.

Neptune in Aries, at the eye of a “Minor Grand Trine” between the transpersonal planets Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto for the month of July and the rest of 2026. Most active in July. 

The signs of Aries, Gemini and Aquarius are ready to move forward on their spiritual path. 

Uranus is in Gemini and Pluto is in Aquarius. Advanced technologies will become more fertile in July so we could see advancements in U.F.O. disclosure and sightings of flying saucers in all kinds of shapes from July till the end of 2026. 

Astrology could get more popular and robotics with this combination.

 Spiritual practitioners could have elevated awareness and telepathic communications with loved ones who have passed on and other souls that are miles ahead of us on different dimensions from different galactic cultures. 

Neptune will station retrograde on July 7th in the sign of Aries. Neptune will not station direct till the middle of December 2026.

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Aries, you want to settle down more and see life from inside out rather than the outside in which is a challenge for those with Aries energy. 

Aries will be more patient. Maybe thinking about their spiritual development as much as wanting to make an argument during this time and start 2027 with a new perspective/balance in their approach to life.

This is also an indication that the wars we have heard so much about over the past four or so years will find conclusions by the end of 2026. 

Remember, Pluto is also involved with Neptune and Uranus in this “Minor Grand Trine” and will reach beyond three degrees by December 20th completing a cycle of purification that Pluto started in March of 2023.

When any planet is moving into a new sign, it needs to reach four degrees to feel settled in the new energy of that sign. Pluto will finally do this by December 20th. 

The sign of Leo has been getting lots of blessings from Venus to attract more money and have a lively social life since June 13th, but that changes on July 9th when Venus moves into the practical and shy sign of Virgo. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Virgo, you can attract new relationships and money starting on July 9th. Your health may also get better since Virgo is a sign of healing and health. This energy runs till August 6th. 

We saw in the last full Moon in Capricorn at the end of June intense stress to finalize negotiations between America and other countries around the world. This energy runs till the next new Moon in Cancer on July 14th. 

The new Moon in Cancer on July 14th at 21 degrees (5:44AM EDT) shows those with Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Cancer starting, new Moon, a new direction in their lives especially when Mercury stations direct on July 23rd. 

New Moon’s represents new beginnings so all the areas of life mentioned at the beginning of this column will be ready to move forward in your life with all the things you thought about so deeply over the past two weeks. 

The Sun enters the sign of Leo on July 22nd, a day before Mercury stations direct on the 23rd. 

It’s full steam ahead for those born under the sign of Leo as Jupiter is also in Leo for the next 12 months. 

Happy Birthday to the sign of Leo. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Leo, you have increased protection from legal issues. Your life expands and your social life is filled with celebrations. Be careful not to have too good of a time so you don’t get into trouble with others. 

Saturn stations retrograde on July 26th at 14 degrees in the sign of Aries. Aries as mentioned earlier in this column are going through some deep soul searching till the middle of December when both Saturn and Neptune will station direct. 

This is a suitable time for those with Aries’ energy to discipline themselves and not be so adventurous to the point where they overextend themselves. They are more careful than normal from July through the rest of 2026. 

President Trump will have his progressed Moon in Scorpio square to his rising sign of Leo from July 6th till August 6th peaking on July 22nd. 

This is not an enjoyable time for him. The rising sign rules the physical body, and the progressed Moon is in its fall in Scorpio, the sign that rules birth and death. 

Then, on the first day of August the South Node will be at 29 degrees of Leo and conjunct his rising sign. The South Node is past karma coming back to him, rising sign.

With these two combinations, he could be in trouble with his health or some violent situation that compromises his physical body. 

The good news is the “Minor Grand Trine” allows more protections as Uranus in his solar chart, started on his 80th birthday, is in the 7th house of open enemies. This could be instability in his marriage but with Uranus sextile to Neptune and trine to Pluto, it helps to ease the pain. 

His new solar year chart that started on his 80th birthday, June 14th, has both luminaries, the Sun, and the Moon, as well as Uranus all in Gemini and with the Sun unaspected, he is not connecting with the public. 

This disconnection we are already starting to see will carry on throughout his new solar year and this can be his weakness. Gemini can’t seem to shut up and being so self-absorbed, unaspected Sun, he will lose support all around him and may not even notice it. 

Chiron just entered the sign of Taurus for an eight-year period. Taurus rules the financial areas of life as well as self-worth. 

Chron in Taurus is also connected to the Earth. Chiron forces the Earth to heal the wounds of the past so we can see some major environmental situations such as the recent Earthquake activity around the world. 

Take the time daily, at least 20 minutes, to have a relationship with mother nature to disconnect from all the noise and be thankful for all she gives. 

Leaders around the world will be challenged, especially the Trump administration, by Mother Earth when it comes to emergency funds for natural disasters. We have already seen a strong tornado and fire season starting early. 

This summer could disrupt the well-defined plans of our federal government as the Earth needs healing and attention that has not been granted to it. We cannot continue to drop bombs on the Earth and fill her womb with garbage. 

Chiron combined with other planetary alignment’s triggers situations that allow her to shake off her own health issues. The Earth and her spirit are much more powerful than any man-made organization. FEMA will be challenged. 

Money must stop being spent on war and be spent on taking care of Earth’s children as well as the Earth’s body. Her body cannot carry any more toxic chemicals or be disrespected in other ways mentioned. 

The full Moon in Aquarius conjunct Pluto, on July 29th, has the public at odds with what is going on in America. Both the full Moon and Pluto will oppose a tight conjunction between the Sun and Jupiter in Leo. 

Look to the end of July when the public at large will be vocalizing mass protests if things don’t get on track with the economy, healthcare and other issues that need attending for all Americans. 

This full Moon in Aquarius affects those born under the sign of Aquarius and Leo. If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in either of these signs, you will feel polarized in your relationships till the new Moon solar eclipse on August 12th. 

The give and take in relationships will be obvious and this includes relationships at work and in their personal lives. Leo has the advantage because Jupiter is in Leo, adding protection and good luck to the polarized opposition going on.

Between Mercury, Saturn and Neptune turning retrograde in July, a “Minor Grand Trine” between the transpersonal planets and President Trumps difficult aspects, the 250-birthday anniversary will be most welcome to start off the month with positive energy. 

May everyone be safe as we celebrate 250 years of freedom and independence. God bless America and all countries around the world.
