It’s said that retrogrades are good for getting at things we don’t ordinarily think about or deal with when the planets ruling those departments of life are in direct motion. And we know oppositions are good for bringing things to the surface of life to get a comprehensive view of how they fit into our larger cycles of existence. So what can we do with this opposition from the Sun at 5 Leo to Mars retrograde at 5 Aquarius?
Though the opposition is exact at 10:14 pm PDT today, July 26, remember that this opposition has been building for several weeks and we'll be feeling it for quite a few more days. What has shifted in your focus? What are you aware of now that you weren’t even just a few weeks ago? Are you in touch with frustration, whether at the pace of something, the lack of momentum in an effort, or even the inability to get something done because of an inner blockage? This opposition marks a point of healing.
The opposition falls at the exact degree axis of the Total Lunar Eclipse, so you can bet that whatever gets shut down in a big way over the next few weeks and months is directly related to this opposition. For some, I suspect a whole new way of expressing their Light is coming to surface. This is about seeing a longer view of the creative process, and allowing it to be expressed through an ancestral wisdom residing in our genetic memory.
Despite the T-square courtesy of Uranus, we can eliminate a lot at this time that blocks us from our higher spiritual expression. This is the time to focus, concentrate, cooperate, see everything in its symbolic context, and prepare for a lot of quick action beginning about 3 weeks from now. Keep figuring out alternate approaches and plans, since you may need to implement them in the future as the effects of this retrograde continue to play out over time.
Of major importance will be the time after Mars goes direct that it transits this opposition point, as well as the previous point which it occupies in the Total Lunar Eclipse. That implies late September will be of incredible importance in moving our lives forward into our healing, or finding and demonstrating our healing powers in roundabout ways.
The good thing is this opposition does make a T-square with the very powerful Uranus right now. Uranus is perhaps THE major player at present, since this T-square releases power built by the Saturn trine to Uranus and wide forming tredecile from Mercury. So this opposition is dislodging a lot of old material to be eliminated based in the grounded understanding we’ve been getting all year from the trine.
Anyway, from here Mars begins to speed up! Take heart, stay alert since Mars will still square Uranus through the next 2 months, and focus on how you want to do what you want to do after Mercury goes direct. Get ready, since destiny is on the move!

Gosh! What an amazing time! I started purifying with a headache a few days ago. The pressure is tremendous. (born 29 Leo) I began projects in January well in advance. Good thing. Now, I can chill for a while; meditate, get dream input, and watch the messages come. I'm readying for Destiny.
Love your posts. Thank you.

" see everything in its symbolic context "....
What if you feel you are full of bandages made of chewing gum? Like buried mummy - still a life?
Unable to tell it anyone, as everyone feels it just a ocean of plastic everywhere. And for you it feels like a sudden lost opportunity (personally) to meditate, breath, yoga or do those things you love the most, ways you have been taught you can heal yourself and all you surround - the ways you can still feel stillness and operate with other people the way they might also listen to you.
Only thing you can do is to pray (without formula) and wish the God will hear you. And hope that things that has changed in you are irreversible. And same time know that the earth is difficult to heal to healthy planet in concrete. Feel that something is lost forever...

Looks like humanity is being purified and being prepared for the coming choices to be made in the near future. With a clearer consciousness decisions will be better made and oriented.
Thank you for your wonderful posts and wisdom.
Blessings be to all.
