You’re in the midnight hour of your year and should be sleeping and letting the inner forces work. But your work in the world is important and you keep breaking your sleep to focus on it. Metaphorically this is the situation. It is the dead of night, but you keep getting up.

This month you face one of the classic challenges that many face. Home and family are important, but so is the career and outer activities. Each claims their due and you can’t ignore either. Somehow or other you have to deal with both. Now you will lean one way, now the other – it’s not easy.

Retrograde activity among the planets increases this month, and by the 26th half of the planets will be retrograde – almost the maximum for the year. (August 7–19 will see 60 per cent of the planets going backwards.) The pace of life slows down. For an action-oriented Aries, frustration is the main challenge at this time. You’re a thoroughbred, built for speed, but now you’re forced to walk (and sometimes backwards). Everything seems so slow, slow, slow! The good part of this is that one learns patience. Do what is possible each day and let the rest go.

Health and energy become more of an issue from the 21st onwards too. Be sure to get enough rest. You can enhance your health through arm and shoulder massage until the 12th. From the 12th to the 29th make sure to eat right, and keep the emotions harmonious and constructive. After the 29th give more attention to the heart.

Love is still found close to home until the 14th. Make sure to keep your mood right. Bad moods will destroy romantic moments and complicate the love life. There is more socializing at home and with the family until the 14th. Don’t be surprised if an old flame (or someone who reminds you of an old flame) comes back into your life. There is a romantic opportunity with someone spiritual at the beginning of the month.

The urge to travel is very strong these days, but if it isn’t necessary avoid it. Jupiter, who rules travel for you, is receiving good aspects, but he is retrograde. If you must travel during this period, allow more time to get to and from your destination. Insure your tickets, and do what you can to protect yourself against delays and glitches.
