Weekly Horoscope: June 26 - July 2

Mars Stations/Waning Moon - Limbo

Mars stations and turns direct this week, which essentially puts self-assertion and will-power in limbo. The week is bracketed by some confusing Neptune/Pisces energy, beginning with a Pisces Moon on Sunday and ending with a particularly foggy Sun/Neptune trine on the following Saturday. There are a variety of confusing exchanges and vague intentions on both sides of a week of tension and frustration, when we may ineffectually struggle to find some way to take direct action. The positive side of Neptune offers deep faith and inspiration. The blind corner produced by the extended Mars/Uranus quincunx requires just such faith in order to navigate our way through the tense and frustrating environment. Monday is probably the most tense day of the week and it may feel as though the 'wheels are coming off' as we try to get things moving. Tuesday offers the opportunity to plant some seeds of resolution that can begin to sprout under next week's New Moon (July 4th 4:00 AM PDT 12° Cancer). In order to make the most of the opportunity, we'll need to detach from personal frustrations long enough to glimpse the bigger picture. Mercury arrives in Cancer on Wednesday, offering intellectual assistance to help unwind any residual frustration so that we don't just explode when things begin to heat up next week. Mars stations on Thursday just as Venus opposes Pluto, prompting intense, frustrating power struggles but little momentum to break free of the stress. Tension subsides temporarily on Friday, providing an opening to make quiet adjustments within our home and family circle that will help us to feel more secure with whatever positions we have taken. Saturday suggests a somewhat unique, insular environment where direct communication seems particularly fruitless. It is a day to look within for inspiration and avoid trying to grab Center Stage.
