*** WHAT'S HAPPENING ***

JULY 2026

Independence Day Display Newburyport, MA

Finis Origine Pendet

The end depends upon the beginning.

** THE SUN & EARTH & MORE **

Every project, business, romantic relationship, or partnership has its own birth chart, and the Sun and Earth are the most crucial factors in that chart.

Every day can vary in its propensity for a successful outcome. Some days are better for love, and some are better for money, but your own chart's transits are the most important. However, when you have great transits and also pick a great day to start something new, the magic happens!

The Sun or Earth is the most important body in any chart, so understanding their most significant alignments can help you make better choices about the best days to begin something new, if and only if, your chart agrees.

Red days are the most challenging. Green days are the most helpful. Yellow Days require extra caution.Set for NY 6 am Eastern Time.

July 3 - 6 - Sun square Saturn usually means bad results and unpleasant failures, so this is not the best time to get anything important started. This a poor time to accept extra duties, responsibilities, or obligations, since they could become too demanding

July 7 is the best day this week but July 8 and 9 are impacted by negative pesky midpoints. Use this day if you have great transits unless it can wait until later in the month.

July 16 - 18 - The Sun parallel Ceres while Uranus completes its trine to Pluto makes these rather good days for financial and business affairs.

July 21- 22 The Sun square Chiron makes for awkward starts and lays the groundwork for misunderstandings.

July 23 Mercury Direct at 16.3 Cancer

July 23- 24 - The Sun parallel Jupiter and Uranus trine Earth should indicate good results with anything begun. Great time for changes that are intended to result in improvements.

July 26 - 27 - So much depends on 4 degrees. The Sun, Neptune form a trine while the Sun opposes Pluto, and Pluto is trine Uranus. Juno throws a bit of weight into the mix, too. All at or close to 4 degrees of their signs.

* THOUGHTS & THINGS *

As the day approaches when we celebrate the founding of our independent country, my mind turns to ancestors whose blood, sweat, and tears contributed to putting a new name on the global map in 1776. Rather than sharing my genealogical background I will share a few famous people who were born on the 4th of July.

Calvin Coolidge (July 4, 1872) was born in Vermont, became the Governor of Massachusetts, was elected U.S. Vice President, and then became President after Warren Harding's sudden death in 1923 and thereafter elected as President until 1929. He was the 30th U.S. President, and the only American president to be born on the 4th of July.

Nathaniel Hawthorne (July 4, 1804) born in Salem, MA and descended from Puritans who oversaw the Salem Witch Trials, is considered to be one of America's greatest early novelists as the author of The Scarlet Letter and The House of Seven Gables, and deeply tied to American colonial history.

Stephen Foster The famous songwriter (July 4,1826) was born in Pittsburgh and died a penniless alcoholic when he was just 37 years old. He never lived in the south but is known for writing more than 200 popular songs that often resonate with our national roots, including "Oh! Susanna", "Camptown Races", "Old Folks at Home" ("Swanee River"), "My Old Kentucky Home", "Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair", and "Beautiful Dreamer." His chart shows Sun opposite Neptune but although his life revolved around music, he was unable to support his family with songwriting. Perhaps had he married someone else his story would have had a different outcome.

JUST FOR FUN: Interesting piece on the Feng Shui of houseplants according to astrological signs. Not sure if it is accurate and I am not willing to torture innocent houseplants to test these theories.

Pet Transit Trackers! Pets have birth charts and transits. Yes! I can create Transit Trackers for dogs, cats, horses, or even goldfish if you have a birthdate.

Here is the gist of what one client said: Knowing good days could help with scheduling medical procedures or choosing the timing for introducing new things like a first time to a dog park, entering dog competitions or training. Even choosing the first day in a new home or a first time with a new pet babysitter or veterinarian. People who breed animals could certainly benefit.

*** JULY 2026 LUNA ***

If you have a planet synchronized with the degree of the New Moon or Full Moon, or one of the eclipse degrees, your chart will be more affected than most other people.

*** NEW MOON ***

*Dates chosen in in EST or EDST

Here's something to think about: Fishermen know that fish are "running" and more easily caught than on other days. Try it out yourself. Here is a fishing calendar for your location based on lunar cycles and more

*** ECLIPSES 2026 ***

If you have a natal planet synchronized with one of these eclipse degrees your chart will be impacted by the eclipse's influence more than other people.

Feb 17 Solar Eclipse (Annular) 28.9 Aquarius

Mar 2–3 Lunar Eclipse (Total) 12.9 Virgo/Pisces

Aug 12 Solar Eclipse (Total) 20 Leo

Aug 27–28 Lunar Eclipse (Partial) 4.9 Pisces/Virgo

Looking ahead: According to NASA's solar eclipse calendar, the longest solar eclipse in 100 years will occur on August 2, 2027. Its total phase will last 6 minutes and 23 seconds.

Hindsight: On May 28, 585 BC a total solar eclipse plunged the sky into sudden darkness during a battle, causing two armies - the Medes and Lydians - to drop their weapons and negotiate a peace treaty because the eclipse was interpreted as an omen.

*** PLANETARY PIVOT POINTS ***

Let's look ahead at retrograde energy shifts for the next few months. If you have a natal planet synchronized with one of these station points your chart will be impacted by that planet's influence more than other people.
