The influence of planets and stars in July 2024
Just a heads up: this article is not the kind of forecast that I usually write. It is rather research, a study of a phenomenon very poorly understood in astrology, namely stars. In July, the influence of the star Algol, the most ominous star in our sky, is extremely strong. We will have to see what events/energies it will bring.
But first, a little about energies at the end of June/beginning of July, which passed through us like a steamroller. Some people suffered at the event level, while others suffered damage to their health, both physical and mental. Even those completely insensitive to energies still felt uncomfortable. Astrologically at this time, an opposition of Neptune and Black Moon happened, with Neptune in conjunction with the small but extremely nasty star Sheat, which negatively affects the psyche. There were a lot of car accidents at the end of June. The star is not directly responsible for them; it is more inclined to cause drowning (there have been many floods) and poisoning. However, if you are driving and feel strange, it is much easier to get into an accident. Sheat will remain in a significant position until mid-August, but such a destructive effect will no longer happen without the participation of Lilith, the planet of dark karma (she moved to Libra).
And now we have Algol… How might it show itself? First, about why the stars influence us at all – they are so far away. It is understandable about the planets: they are here, in our Solar system, and always involved. Stars represent connections to other star systems, and nebulas connections to other galaxies. The stars by themselves don’t work; they (or rather their projection onto the ecliptic) must be in conjunction with a planet (and within a very small orb). I place so much importance on this particular conjunction because the planet that is transmitting the star energy is Uranus. Uranus himself is quite complex, responsible for surprises and changes, electricity and lightning, as well as new technology. He moves slowly; that’s why the influence of Algol will last a month.
Algol is considered the star of Evil in all astrological schools; it is also called Kaput Algol or the star of the Devil. An inconspicuous, variable star in the constellation of Perseus, it represents the head of the Gorgon Medusa severed by Perseus. And like the head of Medusa, turning everyone who looked at it into stone, Algol tries to harm wherever it is possible.
To see how the conjunction of Uranus and Algol works, let’s look at the past, at the history of mankind. Uranus has a cycle of 84 years, and the last time it was in conjunction with the star was during World War II. The exact conjunction occurred on July 18, 1940. I assumed that with the help of astrocartography we could see the countries that would be affected by this conjunction. For this Uranus had to be at a significant point on the world map: on the Ascendant or at the zenith. However, it turned out that the IC point (nadir) showed to be the most visible, perhaps because it represents home, ancestors, homeland, where the action unfolds.
The Uranus on Nadir (IC) line passed through France, England (near London) and Algeria. At this time, the Vichy government was formed in France, agreeing to cooperate with the Germans, which was a betrayal of the Allies and the French people. About England: for the first time, the Luftwaffe began dropping bombs on cities in broad daylight (before there were only night bombings). Thus began the Battle for Britain.
The conjunction of Black Moon and Algol on October 20, 1941 brought absolutely terrible energy (and events). The black page of the Holocaust was written on October 22 – 24, when more than 30 thousand Jews and Gipsies were killed in Odessa. During the same period, the Majdanek extermination camp opened. And the Battle for Moscow began.
I don’t want to scare anyone; those were different times, and I want to believe that humanity has changed for the better. However, Algol will try to bring the worst out of us (luckily Lilith isn’t present there). Yes, there are still wars happening on Earth, local ones for now; perhaps, something will happen in the war zone. But I assume that, this time, natural disasters will have the upper hand. Uranus is the planet of the air element, and is responsible for hurricanes, tornados and storms. Hurricanes are already raging.
If we look at astrocartography of the exact conjunction of Uranus and Algol on July 20th, the Nadir line runs through Romania, Western Ukraine, Belorussia, the Baltic States, Finland and a part of Africa. And the Uranus’ line on Zenith is located mainly in the Pacific Ocean but affects Hawai’i and Alaska. My psychic sense says that “dark clouds” are gathering over the beautiful Hawaiian Islands. Remember that I told you before that this is just research, speculation. It is extremely difficult to predict the world processes just with the help of astrology. Therefore, we will only observe.
I can still give some specific warnings. They are associated with Mars, which moves quickly, but greatly worsens the situation. Mars will conjunct Uranus (and the star Algol) on July 15th (the 14th in the Eastern hemisphere). The tandem of Mars and Uranus is problematic in itself, and then there is an ominous star. Since Mars is a warlike planet, hostilities might flare up after a lull in the conflict zones. During the period from July 13 till July 15, everyone should be careful with any equipment, including cars, of course. Major disruptions in computer systems and power plants are possible.
This is a general background, but the stressful situation will directly affect those who have any planets in the 27th degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius in their natal chart. If it is the Sun, then Taurus’ born on May 15 – 17, Leos (August 17 – 19), Scorpios (November 17 – 18) and Aquarius’ (February 13 – 15) are advised to heed the warnings. One more thing – the mentioned individuals shouldn’t fly! The conjunction of these two problematic planets with an even more negative star has a very bad effect on air travel. Also refrain from surgery on eyes.
No need to faint after reading the above. Let us remember the saying: “Stars predispose but do not oblige”. No one yet cancelled our free will. If we don’t have strongly negative energy inside, then the vibrations of the star won’t be perceived.
Hoping for the best,
