July 6th: Uranus in opposition to the Antennae Galaxies, in contra parallel to Juno seeks to balance relationships and social participation with freedom and independence

July 6th: Uranus is in contra parallel to asteroid Juno. Contra parallels represent a balance between two forces. It's like a scale that is trying, after leaning to both sides, to find a balance. Today it is up to the planet of independence and the asteroid of relationships to adjust to each other, seeking a middle ground in which commitments do not limit personal freedom and independence does not frustrate communion with others.

     This trend, which is valid until July 10th, will be manifested in many ways. At a personal level, it corresponds to adjustments in relationships: it is advisable to seek to balance, depending on the current situation. If there has been much cohabitation or dependence, it is better to allow space and time where everyone expresses their individuality. That will release tensions and help prevent future problems. If there has been a distancing and lack of commitment, it is a good time to share, cooperate, join, participate and strengthen links. The effort to reach a middle ground may be hard, and in extreme cases cause break-ups, splits. Juno is still opposed to star cluster M34, which contains many stars arranged in pairs, in couples. This opposition represents the need to avoid certain associations while favoring others.

     But stable and sincere relations will benefit from doing new things, change their routines, try new ways of sharing and relating. One must therefore be open to new things just to balance. In social terms it is more advisable to have an informal, casual approach, rather than one rigid and conventional. At an international level, this will probably cause several coalition breaks or tensions between countries, but also a refreshing attitude in many cases. Juno represents partnerships, Uranus indicates revolution, so the vibrant environment nowadays indicates a sense of unity among the masses who seek a change in all countries.

      Uranus is in opposition to the Antennae Galaxies, a pair of interacting galaxies in an intense, distorting contact, yet fertilizing. These galaxies in the constellation of Corvus symbolize the social impact on the individual, a vulnerability to the influence of society, the collective interference in personal life. Uranus in opposition shows a rebel resistance to it, as it crosses the indomitable zodiacal sign of Aries. Uranus is looking for new ways to figure out solutions to the numerous social problems of today. Hence there is the need to open new ways for the XXIst century and give an increasing weight to the real needs of individuals rather than that of institutions and traditions.
