Astrology has thousands of asteroids, and many govern something specific, like asteroid Talent. This asteroid is literally the asteroid of talent, and shows where you're talented and how you use your talents. You can find the location of your natal asteroid Talent for free using astro.com; in Extended Chart Selection, click on 'Additional objects', and add the number '33154' to the 'Manual entry' box, and generate your chart. Asteroid Talent is moving into Virgo in a few days. What does this do for us? Asteroid Talent in Virgo Dates:
Asteroid Talent in Virgo 2023 General Impact:
Asteroid Talent was in Leo for a prolonged period, around 10 months, thanks to retrograding (appearing to move backward) entirely in Leo. Talent moving into Virgo likely frees us up with our talents so we're able to actually take action with them.
Leo is a creative sign, but not necessarily serious or focused. Virgo, on the other hand, is detailed, practical, and hard-working. This means we can get to work with our talents, and put them to good use in ways that are practical and beneficial. No more sitting back, it's time to take action. We may not be super loud about this though, and we may not crave attention for our talents the way we have with Leo. We can put in the work now and just feel good about that. This would be a great time for using talents in our jobs, or turning a talent into something profitable. We can also use talents to be more organized, efficient, structured, and orderly. Talents may be more likely to be recognized if they're focused on work, being of service, or related to health and wellness. Asteroid Talent in Virgo 2023 Aspects:
Asteroid Talent didn't conjunct (align with) any planets while in Leo, but will conjunct Mercury and Mars while in Virgo. Talent conjuncts transit Mars on July 27th 2023 at 10 degrees Virgo, and this brings energy and drive for pursuing and using our talents. Mars helps us take the initiative, and we can be extra hard-working, detailed, and focused.
Talent conjuncts transit Mercury on August 14th 2023 at 18 degrees, and Mercury is the natural ruler of Virgo, so this can amplify the Virgo impact. We can give a lot more attention to the work we want to get done and how we can use our talents for this, and how we can be more practical and engaged with our talents. The conjunction to Mercury comes 9 days before Mercury retrogrades in Virgo, and Mercury is retrograde in Virgo for the rest of the time Talent is in Virgo. This can throw off our use of talents a little bit, and we may focus more on bringing back old talents we used to have or old ways we used to use our talents as this may be more beneficial for us now. Any new talents may need to be held off for the time being, and we can focus on removing old issues and blocks to using our talents as well. We may give more attention to how we can best reflect and release with the retrograde. It may be more difficult when Talent opposes Neptune in Pisces on September 2nd 2023, and we may lack focus and discipline with our talents, and need to take a little break from pushing so hard. Trying to force things may drain us and take away inspiration, so that should be avoided.

(haha) Astrology can show you almost anything, and that includes money. Your own money is ruled by the 2nd house, the sign of Taurus, and dwarf planet Ceres. But what about money that isn't only yours? Let's dive in. What rules other people's money in astrology?
Astrology makes a distinction between your own money and other people's money. Your own money is the money you make yourself, that doesn't impact anyone else, while other people's money is the money that involves others. This includes things like:
- debts - loans - credit - inheritances - taxes - joint finances and accounts - business finances - stocks - investments Other people's money falls under the rulership of the 8th house, Pluto, and Scorpio. When you are under 8th house transits (so when the transit planets are moving through your 8th house or aspecting the 8th house ruler), this can bring up developments impacting "other people's money". You may take out a loan, inherit some money, pay your taxes, or open up a joint bank account. Transit Planets in the 8th House impacting money:
This can be most beneficial when transit Mars, Ceres, or Jupiter tour your 8th house. Mars is the planet of energy and drive, and you can feel driven to work on "other people's money" in some way. With Mars, you'll usually be the one taking the initiative with it. You don't need to wait for someone else to bring you the opportunity, and you may be actively seeking out opportunities to make money involving others.
Ceres is the planetary ruler of money, so Ceres touring the 8th house can be quite beneficial. Ceres in the 8th house can bring the opportunities to you, and they can be much bigger than you anticipate. Ceres is an abundant position, and this can create opportunities for abundance via other people's money. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and opportunity, so this can bring opportunities for you to expand your access to "other people's money". There will often be opportunities that are "mutually-beneficial", meaning they benefit both you and the other person involved. This may be in the form of business partnerships, or where you're doing work for someone else, or someone is doing work for you, and this proves to be beneficial for the both of you. Transit aspects to natal Pluto:
When the transit planets aspect your natal Pluto, this also has the potential to impact "other people's money" in your life. You may get a new credit card, buy some stocks, or make a business investment.
Sextiles and trines to your natal Pluto can make this beneficial and easy for you, and you can find opportunities quickly or are presented with opportunities by others. These would be good periods to take advantage of. Squares and oppositions can bring challenges to work through, and you may have blocks in the way of being able to utilize other people's money. There may be little opportunities, and you may have to go it alone. Conjunctions can depend on other aspects at the same time and how you've been doing thus far. If aspects are good, the conjunctions can amplify that, but if they're challenging, the conjunctions can amplify that too. Transit planets in Scorpio:
When the transit planets are in Scorpio, we all get impacted at the same time, and we can all give more focus to "other people's money". The Moon travels quickly and spends 2-3 days per sign, so we get a few days each month where we're all emotionally focused on other people's money.
The Sun tours Scorpio around the same time each year, late October to late November, and this can shine a light on other people's money in some way. It's actually fairly well known that the stock market likes to tank in October, and funnily enough, Mercury retrograde in Scorpio usually impacts the month of October. Retrogrades like to throw things off, so other people's money may be challenged for everyone or on a mass scale when the retrograde occurs in Scorpio. Other people's resources count too:
Note that I'm discussing money here, but resources also apply, so these points also rule other people's resources and shared resources. This can go beyond just money (which is just a resource itself astrologically).
Suggested Reading: Jupiter-Pluto & Wealth ​ Summer is here (for the northern hemisphere, anyway!), and this is going to be an interesting summer. Buckle up, and keep calm with some self-care! Summer 2023 Astrology
This summer begins with Pluto having just gone back to Capricorn, and we're experiencing some major culminations, finalizing, and releasing. This is the end of a chapter for Pluto in Capricorn as Pluto is starting to move to Aquarius, and we can see chapters closing in our own lives. This can be on full display for the rest of 2023 since Pluto remains in Capricorn for the rest of the year.
We'll want to make the most of the lull right now, because retrogrades are coming that throw monkey wrenches into the machine! Venus retrogrades July 22nd to September 3rd in Leo, and then Mercury retrogrades August 23rd to September 15th in Virgo. The retrogrades prompt us to focus on stuff from the past, and we need to reflect, understand, and let go. This can be an emotional experience, but one we likely need to have. With Venus retrograde in Leo, this can bring focus on old love issues and love baggage. Mercury retrograde in Virgo can bring focus on issues with our work, daily life, health, and habits. So, practicing some self-care is super important this summer, especially during the second half! Note that you can follow your Sun sign below, but you may find activities associated with your Moon sign are more soothing. Summer Self-Care by Zodiac Sign:
Aries: Aries usually benefits from physical activities, so self-care for you may involve getting out and getting moving. Go for a run, use some dance exercise videos, or install a punching bag in your home. Aries also rules the head, so you may want to give yourself some scalp and face massages regularly.
Taurus: Taurus rules the senses and connects to the physical world, so self-care for you may involve utilizing your senses and the world around you in some way. You can benefit from any kind of massage or acupressure, can enjoy taking cooking classes or learning about certain summery foods, or getting into nature with walks in the woods, giving yourself flowers, or growing your own herbs. Gemini: Gemini rules the mind, so self-care for you may involve using your mental energy. You can make a list of books to read or podcasts to listen to, take a class in something of interest you can only do in the summer, do some writing, or have more chats. Regularly talking things out, with a friend or family or professional or just writing in your own journal, can help. Cancer: Cancer rules emotions, so self-care for you may involve tending to yourself emotionally. Cancer is comfortable and familiar, so you may prefer to spend time in familiar places and with people who support you. Cancer also connects to water, so you may want to spend some time around the ocean, rivers, lakes, ponds, etc. Leo: Leo is a creative sign, so self-care for you may involve being creative. You can make more time for your hobbies, or give more attention to creative ventures. You may want to take time away from work so this can be a great time for a vacation, and try to get away, even if for just a few hours. Leo rules entertainment, so you may want to spend time watching movies or attending concerts. Virgo: Virgo is the sign of health, so self-care for you may involve taking care of your general health and well-being. You can do little things on a daily basis, like making a smarter choice for a snack, walking an extra 100 steps, or getting a routine checkup. As you take better care of your body, you can feel less stressed overall in life. Libra: Libra is the sign of relationships, so self-care for you may involve others. You can spend more time one-on-one with the people you care about and find this to be quite soothing for you. You may also prioritize balance, peace, and harmony, and can try to avoid any chaos or high drama people. You may want to spend time in peaceful places, like by a river or at a spa. Scorpio: Scorpio is an intense sign, so self-care for you may involve throwing yourself into something. You can spend time doing research and investigating something of interest, and you can use this as an escape and distraction when needed if you don't go too overboard. You may also want to work on a transformation of some sort, making something old new again. Sagittarius: Sagittarius is an adventurous sign, so self-care for you may involve having new experiences that excite you and you can learn from. You may want to travel somewhere you've never been to, learn something new, expand knowledge you have, or take time to write or speak. Opening your mind and being more optimistic can be soothing for you. Capricorn: Capricorn is the ambitious sign, so self-care for you may involve tending to your long-term goals and plans. You can make more time to tweak your plans and gather information you need. Capricorn is also traditional, so traditional ways of self-soothing may be of help, like getting a massage, meditating, or taking a day off. With Capricorn being an earth sign, you may want to get out in nature. Aquarius: Aquarius is an unconventional sign, so self-care for you may involve being different in some way. You may want to explore unconventional and experimental methods for self-soothing, and can opt for weird and wild outings. Aquarius also rules friends, so spending time with a friend can be helpful, and you may enjoy getting more time in a group of like-minded people. Pisces: Pisces is a spiritual sign, so self-care for you may involve spending time on spiritual pursuits, strengthening your intuition, and simply getting some time alone can be beneficial. Pisces also rules imagination and the arts, so listening to music, drawing or painting, visiting an art museum, or reading or writing can help. Pisces also connects to water, so you may want to spend time at or in water, or doing things like taking more baths/showers.

Juno is an asteroid in astrology, and there are tens of thousands of asteroids, and each connects to something different. Many are simply names, but some like Amor connect to specific energies.
In the case of asteroid Juno, this is the asteroid of commitment. Juno shows how we express commitment and our attitudes around it, and in transit, we can see this via the Zodiac sign Juno is touring, and the natal house it's touring in your natal chart. Impact of Asteroid Juno in Cancer 2023
Juno spent about 1 1/2 months in Gemini, which quickly voices vows of commitment and sees this as a contract. Cancer, on the other hand, is focused on emotions, and becomes emotionally invested in the commitments it makes, and once it is, it's there to stay.
Juno in Cancer can make us more emotional about commitment, which can make us take it more seriously. We won't rush into it too quickly, but we can let emotions guide us to the commitments we make, to people, projects, plans, and ideas. Juno in Cancer can help us be more invested in commitment, but this can come with some subjectivity, and we may struggle with seeing things clearly. We may need to work on taking a step back and seeing situations as they are, and not getting lost in what we feel. Cancer rules our home and family, so we may be more committed to projects at home, to those we think of as family, and to our communities. We may have loyalty to where we grew up, but we need to make sure we're not being too closed-minded about it. Juno tours Zodiac sign Cancer for almost 2 months, from June 22nd to August 15th 2023. Important Juno in Cancer Aspects:
Juno in Cancer will only conjunct (align with) one of the other planets, and that's Mercury in Cancer on August 28th, so it's early in the transit on Juno in Cancer, and both are early in sign.
Mercury is the planet of the mind and communication, so Juno conjunct Mercury means we're much more focused on commitment, alliances, and mediations. We can come together with ideas and plans, and we can talk things over. We may commit ourselves to new ideas and plans, and we can quickly move on these if we feel invested both emotionally and mentally. This can be a great merging of the heart and mind, and we can move through with ease. Juno in Cancer will oppose Pluto in Capricorn on August 13th 2023, and this can bring out major struggles over power and control in commitments. Some may break apart as a result, and there can be little wiggle room in the opposing narratives and positives. We likely need to work on opening up our minds, but we may be convinced that we're right and don't need to budge. This may be correct, but it can come at a price, and fights may just have to be dealt with as they come. I'll also note that Venus, the planet of love and relationships, is retrograde starting July 22nd 2023, so in the middle of Juno in Cancer, and this can throw some challenges in the way of commitment. Venus and Juno don't aspect each other in Cancer, but with love being challenged, commitment may be stalled and takes longer to get there, or requires one to get through a hurdle first. Asteroid Juno in Cancer for the Zodiac Signs

Our last Venus retrograde came December 2021 to January 2022, entirely in earth sign Capricorn. This one hits us in fiery Leo. What can we expect? The basics - What is Venus retrograde?
A planet is called retrograde when it appears to be moving backward from our view here on Earth. It's not actually moving backward, and only looks that way. Venus retrogrades roughly every 1 1/2 years for about 1 1/2 months. Mercury retrogrades most often (3-4 times each year for about 3 weeks at a time) while Neptune and Pluto are retrograde for almost as much time as they're not (so much more subtle).
Venus is a personal planet (with the Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Mars), and personal planets have energy we feel more personally. This makes Venus retrograde important! Venus rules love and money, so you can get your heart broken and go bankrupt on the same day during Venus retrograde (LOL! that'd be a terrible one though!). We tend to be much lazier, more stubborn and selfish, indulgent and immovable during Venus retrograde. Venus Retrograde in Leo 2023 Dates:
Venus Retrograde in Leo Effects:
Venus retrograde comes, and loves to muck up relationships and make us all very short with each other! We can have little to no patience with the people in our lives, and we can struggle with getting moving with anything that requires action.
We very much want to be lazy and indulge, and can be very self-involved and inconsiderate. We don't want to change anything, and we can be quite stubborn about it! In Leo, this is the sign of love and creativity, so we can be extra challenging in our love relationships and with those we love. We may demand too much of their attention, desperate for praise and adoration (especially if this is normally an issue and self-esteem is low), but then when we get it, we may get annoyed by it and just want everyone to shut up. Catch-22! We may want to push work aside and avoid responsibilities, and take time away to goof off as much as possible. This would be a great time for a vacation! But not great for anything requiring discipline and focus as this is likely lacking. This would be a great period for reconnecting with the heart and with our inner child. We can remind ourselves how to have fun without any expectations or worries about perfection. We can also reconnect with old hobbies and creative ventures, and this might be a good time to pick back up an old creative project or hobby that we used to love. We might make some progress with it now, and can enjoy it more. With Leo ruling love, we can also reconnect with old flames, and some may see the return of an ex or two. If you want to get back together with an ex, this might be the time for it. Just make sure you're seeing the situation clearly and not with rose-colored glasses. Leo also rules our children, so if you have any, watch out for some super rebellion! They may push to get their own way more than usual, and they may seem much grumpier and quick to snap. Try to have some patience with them, and with yourself, and see if there's something that is making them feel insecure that might be causing this. For yourself, make sure your own confidence, self-worth, self-esteem, and self-respect are in good shape too. If they're not, this retrograde may expose that and cause a lot of discomfort. Take care of yourself, and work on issues that have kept you from feeling good about yourself. If you need to make a change for the better, now may be the time. Oh, and one big warning: pride is sure to be a HUGE issue with this retrograde! Way too much pride getting in the way of anything and everything. We can channel the wounded lion and roar pretty loudly, and lash out, but this doesn't help very much. We need to work on strengthening ourselves internally so we can have more productive reactions to woundings, and not let pride get in the way. Venus Retrograde in Leo 2023 Aspects:
Venus makes 5 major aspects while retrograde. They are:
- Venus conjunct Mercury | July 27th 2023 @ 28 degrees: Mercury brings mental focus, and we can come up with ideas and plans for what we need to be doing creatively. We can come up with different ways of communicating and expressing ourselves, and we may keep busy. - Venus square Uranus | August 9th 2023 @ 22 degrees: Uranus is the planet of change, the sudden and unexpected, so the square to Uranus can bring out unexpected challenges in relationships, and many may find their relationships on the edge of breaking. This would be a time when bad relationships get worse, and some may decide to suddenly walk away. - Venus conjunct the Sun | August 13th 2023 @ 20 degrees: This happens during each Venus retrograde, and the Sun shines a light, so this brings extra focus and attention to whatever is happening with Venus retrograde at the time. We may have an easier time seeing how to deal with matters and find resolutions more easily. - Venus sextile Ceres | August 16th 2023 @ 18 degrees: Ceres is a dwarf planet ruling nourishment and support, so this beneficial aspect helps us get and give support that is needed. Ceres also rules our resources, so we can find new ways of using the resources we have, and accessing new resources when needed. - Venus square Jupiter | August 22nd 2023 @ 15 degrees degrees: Venus is actually square Jupiter for a while, the second half of August and most of September, since Jupiter will turn retrograde in early September and Venus retrograde will end in early September with the two square. This can bring out some super laziness, indulgence, and excess to the max. We may have difficulty moderating, or finding motivation for anything. We may demand too much space in relationships, and push others away. We need to find ways to take action when needed, and find small amounts of space instead of pushing others away. This also may not be a great time for flying. Also, Venus will conjunct Black Moon Lilith on August 7th 2023 at 23 degrees Leo. Black Moon Lilith is a point of personal power, and is strong feminine energy, while Venus is also a feminine ruler. This conjunction likely highlights some important developments regarding women's issues, a specific woman, or something like a sex scandal. Watch out! The Moons of Venus Retrograde
The Moon is in the same as the Venus retrograde, Leo, just once, from August 14th (6:37AM ET/3:37AM PT) to August 16th (7:15PM ET/4:15PM PT), and during that time, on August 16th 2023, a new moon occurs in Leo, and it's not conjunct (aligned with) Venus, but it still may shine a light on any Venus retrograde issues we're dealing with at the time, and may be good energy for second chances and do-overs.
Venus naturally rules Taurus and Libra, so when the Moon is in Taurus or Libra, this can make us resonate more with the Venus energy, and we can work on connecting better, relationship issues, getting grounded, and moving forward. Taurus can focus more on movement, stubbornness, sluggishness, and grounding while Libra can focus more on connecting, relationships, and balance. The Moon is in Taurus or Libra on: July 23rd (1:55AM ET/July 22nd @ 10:55PM PT) - 25th 2023 (11:06AM ET/8:06AM PT) - Libra August 7th (2:25AM ET/August 6th @ 11:25PM PT) - 9th 2023 (6:39AM ET/3:39AM PT) - Taurus August 19th (7:54AM ET/4:54AM PT) - 21st 2023 (4:31PM ET/1:31PM PT) - Libra The Moon will be in Taurus when the retrograde ends, starting September 3rd 2023 at 10:59AM ET/7:59AM PT (so over 10 hours before it ends). Final Notes:
The retrograde begins at 28 degrees Leo, so those of you Leo Suns born after August 19th can feel the start of the retrograde most. The retrograde ends at 12 degrees Leo, so those of you Leo Suns born August 2nd - 8th can feel the end of the retrograde most.
For the rest of you, check the house(s) Venus will be retrograding in of your own natal chart, and any aspects Venus will make during its retrograde to your natal planets, to fully understand how it will impact you personally. If you have Venus retrograde in your natal or progressed chart, you may not feel the worst of this. Those individuals generally don't experience the difficulties of the retrograde because it feels more natural to them. Of course, chances are everyone else around them doesn't have the same aspect, so they can still experience difficulties brought on by others. If it's in your natal chart, check out this article about Venus retrograde in the natal chart. Suggested Reading: Mercury, Venus, and Mars Retrogrades page for general interpretations of Venus retrograde in the houses and aspects July 2023 comes with a full moon in disciplined Capricorn and a new moon in emotional Cancer! What is a New Moon?
A new moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are in the exact same position in the Zodiac (called a conjunction). New moons are related to beginnings, have high energy, and are enthusiastic.
What is a Full Moon?
A full moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are in the exact opposite positions in the Zodiac (called an opposition). Full moons are related to endings, culminations, and are emotional energy.
Full Moon in Capricorn: July 3rd 2023 (7:39AM ET/4:39AM PT)
The Capricorn full moon is often focused on progress, success, and achievement. We can see results from the work we've put in, and if we've done things the right way and for the right reasons, we can hit new heights, make what we want happen, get recognition, and make progress on our path. We can feel connected to the path we're on, and like we're going in the right direction.
If we haven't done things the right way or for the right reasons, we may experience setbacks, delays, and blocks on our path. We may be confused, uncertain, and insecure, and this can get in the way. We need to work on being practical and disciplined, and get clear about what we want. Capricorn rules responsibilities, and we may feel easily overwhelmed by responsibilities we have. We can feel the weight of them pushing us down, and we need to work on managing them better. We may need to work on saying no more, and leaving room for small breaks where we can. The full moon is trine (beneficial aspect, 4 signs away) transit (moving) Jupiter in Taurus and opposite Mercury in Cancer. The trine to Jupiter is very helpful, especially with keeping us on the right path and making sure we're not too overwhelmed by what we have to do. This can keep us in a more optimistic mindset, which usually isn't the case with Capricorn. The opposition to Mercury might make focus difficult though, and it can be challenging to communicate clearly. We may have difficulty understanding each other, and it can be a time of bad news and missing information. We need to keep an open mind, and not let any bad news sideline us completely. The full moon occurs at 11 degrees 19 minutes Capricorn. Aspects to the full moon are: Conjunction: 9 degrees 19 minutes - 13 degrees 19 minutes Capricorn Sextile: 9 degrees 19 minutes - 13 degrees 19 minutes Scorpio or Pisces Square: 9 degrees 19 minutes - 13 degrees 19 minutes Aries or Libra Trine: 9 degrees 19 minutes - 13 degrees 19 minutes Taurus or Virgo Opposition: 9 degrees 19 minutes - 13 degrees 19 minutes Cancer New Moon in Cancer: July 17th 2023 (2:32PM ET/11:32AM PT)
The Cancer new moon can be helpful for connecting to our emotions, and letting what we feel motivate us to take action. It can be easier to get going, and we can focus on projects, ventures, and opportunities that we connect with emotionally, that strengthen us internally, or that we can build from the ground up with. We can enjoy starting from the bottom and working our way up, and we can make sure the foundation is solid and secure.
We may also focus on home and family matters, projects, and get togethers, and this can help us feel closer to our home, our community, and those we think of as family. We can be there for those we care about as well, and let out our nurturing sides. We may want to stick to what we know best though, since Cancer prefers comfort and familiarity, so this may not be a great time for venturing too far outside of our comfort zones. Instead, we can find ways to work with what we already know, and expand on them. The new moon is sextile (beneficial aspect, 2 signs away) transit Uranus in Taurus, and this helps with the expansion of what we already know to create new opportunities and ventures. We can take a different approach to the known, and find ways of thinking outside the box with what we're comfortable with so we can maintain emotional security. We can also work on changes that will benefit the foundation of our lives, and strengthen our cores. The new moon occurs at 24 degrees 56 minutes Cancer. The aspects to the new moon are: Conjunction: 22 degrees 56 minutes - 26 degrees 56 minutes Cancer Sextile: 22 degrees 56 minutes - 26 degrees 56 minutes Taurus or Virgo Square: 22 degrees 56 minutes - 26 degrees 56 minutes Aries or Libra Trine: 22 degrees 56 minutes - 26 degrees 56 minutes Scorpio or Pisces Opposition: 22 degrees 56 minutes - 26 degrees 56 minutes Capricorn Suggested Reading: The New & Full Moons page for general interpretations by house and aspect |
