Good afternoon, friends!
I had a wonderful time with my family yesterday at the County Fair, celebrating Independence Day! It was so fun how the day mirrored the transits, and I kept noticing little synchronicities confirming what the stars had predicted.
In fact, I think I witnessed the Ace of Pentacles1 in action—a family friend bought us the tickets to the fair the night before! A perfect example of a grounded, generous gift showing up out of the blue. I love it when the tarot gives us real-life confirmations like that.
Have you felt the Ace of Pentacles energy in your own life lately? Remember, the Aces represent units of one—day, week, month, or year—so keeping track of when you pull certain cards can help you start noticing these cycles. In AstroMommy’s One-Year Tarot Journal, I included a Card Date Tracker section so you can do just that. When you start seeing these patterns, you’ll begin to understand what certain cards mean for you personally, and when they appear, you'll have so much more insight into their message.
Okay, let’s get into...the astrology

THURSDAY, July 3, 2025-The Summary
Relationships remain front and center today, and things may seem a bit odd or out of the ordinary. It could take a little longer to get going—like an old car needing to idle for twenty minutes, you may need some time to warm up. Later in the day, hurt feelings or past wounds could rise to the surface. You may feel the need to face them like a judge weighing out all the details in order to make a verdict, but remember, when we face our vulnerabilities or trigger points, they are opportunities to heal something deeper —and make meaningful emotional progress.
Thursday’s Transit Times
The Moon is in Libra all day
Focus on diplomacy, listening to all sides, and creating peace, balance, and harmony.

Transit Spotlight: Venus Conjunct Uranus, July 4, 2025
Tomorrow, July 4, Venus conjoins Uranus at the anaretic degree—the very last degree of Taurus. We’re getting ahead of this powerful transit because chances are, you’re already feeling it.
When Venus (love, beauty, money) and Uranus (liberation, surprises, innovation) meet, the effects ripple through our relationships, values, and finances. But this particular conjunction is punctuated loudly by the fact that they are meeting at the last degree along with their timing—both planets change signs shortly after the meet-up. Venus moves into Gemini just three hours later, and Uranus follows suit on Monday, July 7.
This signals a noticeable shift in how we relate, love, spend, and express ourselves. You might feel a need to break free—from a relationship, a routine, or even an internal pattern. Or, a sudden blessing could drop into your lap—a financial windfall, a surprise invitation, a new creative spark.
Let’s look at the chart.
Venus Conjunct Uranus
At the moment of conjunction (8:45 am ET), you can see Venus and Uranus in Taurus, perched at the top of the chart, in the very last degree of Taurus, only 08’ of arc away from entering Gemini. This is a very volatile and compelling placement and means that the energy may feel extreme and a bit wild—think Evel Knievel, but with love and money—there may be huge risks taken, shocking plot twists, or monumental shifts in relationship status, like breakups or whirlwind romances!
You might meet an exciting, electric person, or a surprise project might reveal itself—something fun, future-minded, or totally unexpected.
This transit screams Wheel of Fortune energy: thrilling highs, nerve-wracking dips, and unpredictable turns. It reminds me of the roller coasters I rode with my kids yesterday—feeling the excitement as we neared the top and the rush, and a little fear, as we plummeted to the bottom. The path is unpredictable, and the best thing to do is go with the flow—enjoying the ups and learning from the downs—the ride of life is the magic.
Mini-Horoscopes by Rising Sign
Feeling rebellious, adventurous, or suddenly reckless in love or spending? You’re probably syncing up with Venus conjunct Uranus. Let’s take a look at which house this is lighting up in your chart based on your rising sign:
Aries — third house of siblings, communication, and local travel.
Taurus — second house of money, possessions, and skills.
Gemini — first house of self, health, and character.
Cancer — twelfth house of blind spots, large animals, hidden enemies, and mental health.
Leo — eleventh house of friends, allies, groups, and wishes.
Virgo — tenth house of career, legacy, public image, and the mother.
Libra — ninth house of foreign travel, higher education, publishing, and beliefs.
Scorpio — eighth house of shared resources, inheritance, debt, and death.
Sagittarius — seventh house of marriage, partnerships, and legal matters.
Capricorn — sixth house of stress, health issues, employees or co-workers, and pets.
Aquarius — fifth house of pregnancy, children, creativity, and recreational activities.
Pisces — fourth house of family, roots, and property.

The Tarot
Let’s see what the cards have to say…
What is the guidance for today?
Knight of Cups
The Knight of Cups holds his chalice carefully, offering it with grace and intention. He represents romantic gestures, poetic energy, and emotional sincerity. This could be a message, a text, a gift, or even a heartfelt apology.
I love to see this card coming up alongside the wild and unexpected energy of Venus/ Uranus, because it softens the potentially chaotic, unpredictable ride. Amid the electric Uranian shifts, something you love (or someone you love) is sending you a gift of some kind. This could be a loving message, text, or phone call; a love letter, a gift in the mail, or a sweet gesture. Given the Moon’s opposition to Chiron tonight, this could be just the thing to soothe a sore spot or close an old wound.
I hope this is helpful.
Until tomorrow,
AstroMommy
