Greetings, fellow soul travellers! Juan here from Unity Soul Align and Unity Soul Tarot. It's a rather spectacular time on our planet, isn't it? As we navigate our daily lives, there's a whole celestial ballet happening above us, and believe me, it's a show worth watching.
So, let's chat about what's coming up in our cosmic calendar for the rest of 2025. I've been having a bit of a look at the planets and their movements, and there are some significant shifts on the way that could have a profound impact on how we feel and what we experience.
This isn't about predicting the future; it's about understanding the energy currents so we can sail through them with grace. Think of it as a weather forecast, but for your soul!

The Mercury Muddle: When Communication Gets a Cosmic Twist
First up, let's talk about the planet that loves to stir the pot—Mercury! The speedy messenger is currently in the confident and dramatic sign of Leo. But on Friday, 18th July, Mercury will begin its backward dance, a phenomenon we call retrograde.
When Mercury goes retrograde in Leo, the focus is all on how we express ourselves. Expect potential misunderstandings in personal conversations, dramatic flair where it's not needed, and perhaps a few technological hiccups. This isn't a time to launch new projects; it's a brilliant time to review, rework, and reassess existing ones. It's an invitation to check our ego at the door and make sure our hearts and words are truly aligned.

Love, Value & Our Emotions
Next, our lovely Venus. The planet of love, beauty, and values is currently in the airy and intellectual sign of Gemini. But on Thursday, 31st July, Venus moves into the sensitive and nurturing sign of Cancer.
This is a beautiful shift. We move from thinking about love to feeling it. Relationships might become more emotional and sentimental. It's a time to focus on family, home, and creating a sense of security with those we cherish. It's a wonderful period for nesting, decorating your space, and nurturing the bonds that truly matter.

Taking Action: From Detail to Balance
The planet of action and drive, Mars, is currently in the meticulous sign of Virgo. This energy has us focused on perfecting the details of our lives. But on Thursday, 7th August, Mars makes a pivotal move into the sign of balance, justice, and partnership—Libra.
This is a change from doing things alone to doing them with others. Mars in Libra encourages us to find harmony and compromise, but we need to be careful not to avoid confrontation just to keep the peace.
This is a powerful time to find a balanced approach to your goals and to partner up with others to achieve a shared vision.

The September Eclipse
This year, our September eclipse season features a powerful Solar Eclipse. These events are cosmic catalysts, bringing accelerated change and fated events that push us onto our proper path.
21st September: Partial Solar Eclipse in Virgo A Solar Eclipse is a powerful New Moon, marking a fresh start. In Virgo, the focus is on health, work, and our daily routines. This is a brilliant opportunity to set new intentions related to your well-being, to start a new job, or to create a more organised and healthy life. Use this energy to plant seeds for a better, more practical future.

Moon Phases: Our Monthly Rhythm
Beyond the eclipses, the regular rhythm of the New and Full Moons offers us a monthly guide for manifestation and release.
Full Moons for the Rest of 2025 These are moments of culmination and emotional high points.
11th August: Full Moon in Aquarius – Focus on your friendships and community.
10th September: Full Moon in Pisces – Deep spiritual release and creative completion.
10th October: Full Moon in Aries – A chance to stand on your own two feet and embrace your individuality.
9th November: Full Moon in Taurus – A time for grounding, valuing yourself, and enjoying earthly pleasures.
9th December: Full Moon in Gemini – A moment to reflect on what you've learned and how you communicate.

New Moons for the Rest of 2025 These are moments for planting seeds and setting intentions.
27th July: New Moon in Leo – A brilliant time for new creative projects and stepping into your personal power.
25th August: New Moon in Virgo – A time to start new habits related to your well-being.
24th September: New Moon in Libra – An opportunity to create new harmony in your relationships.
24th October: New Moon in Scorpio – A time to begin a deep emotional transformation.
23rd November: New Moon in Sagittarius – A brilliant moment to set intentions for travel, learning, and expanding your horizons.
23rd December: New Moon in Capricorn – An opportunity to set new goals for your career and long-term path.
The Big Shifts: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune & Pluto
Looking ahead, the big players are making some serious moves that will shape the rest of the year and beyond.

Saturn (the great teacher) is in retrograde in fiery Aries, but on Monday, 1st September, it moves back into compassionate Pisces. This shift asks us to take spiritual lessons more seriously and to find discipline in our dreams.

Uranus (the planet of surprises) in Gemini goes retrograde on Saturday, 6th September. Expect unexpected reversals or changes in how you communicate and think.

Pluto (the planet of transformation) in Aquarius goes direct on Tuesday, 14th October. This is a massive one! The power of transformation in our communities and social circles will begin to move forward with a renewed sense of purpose.

Neptune (the planet of dreams) in retrograde in Aries moves back into Pisces on Wednesday, 22nd October. This deepens our connection to our intuition and spirituality.

And finally, Jupiter (the planet of expansion), having been in Cancer for a while, will go retrograde on Tuesday, 11th November. This invites us to look inwards and find growth through our emotional and family lives, rather than seeking it externally.
A Final Thought
The next few months are a cosmic invitation to look inwards. We're moving from a time of outward growth and fast-paced action to a period of reflection and re-evaluation. The universe is asking us to pause, check in with our hearts, and make sure we're still on the right path.
This isn't a time to be scared of retrograde energy; it's a time to work with it. Use these shifts to your advantage. Go with the flow, be kind to yourself, and remember that you have all the tools you need to navigate these cosmic currents.
Stay blessed, and until next time, keep shining your beautiful light.
