Planet Waves Monthly Horoscope for July 2014
Now that you’ve taken a tour of your supposed psychological tendencies, you can claim who you are in the most positive sense. Growth and healing are not just a quest for fixing what is wrong with you, nor are they about making yourself acceptable to others on their terms. They are about identifying the best of who you are and putting that very quality forward. You could say that you need to believe in yourself first in order to do this.
Good As Gold
The heat is on as we reach the Cancer solstice, the start of summer in the northern hemisphere. In this edition, Planet Waves looks back at the wild ride that has been the first half of 2014, including the domino effect of those inner planet retrogrades. Eric also looks ahead to the month of July when mighty Jupiter moves into Leo, bringing confidence and self-esteem into the forefront.
Planet Waves Inner Space Horoscope for July 2014
You have been under a lot of stress the past six months. It’s almost like you’ve done everything right and yet you cannot get the results that you want. It’s good you subscribe to the motto “when you’re going through hell, keep on going” — even if it wasn’t all that bad.

The Sun, Mercury, the Star and the Solstice
Eric examines the conjunction of the Sun and retrograde Mercury with the fixed star Betelgeuse, reminding us that astrology is a tool for conscious choice. He also discusses the upcoming ingress of the Sun into Cancer, and takes a deeper look into the cardinal water sign and its relationship to the story of humanity.
Casey Kasem’s 12th House, Cancer Solstice, Jupiter Conjunct Varuna and Watch Out for the Supreme Court’s “Hobby Lobby” Decision
Casey Kasem, the voice of “American Top 40″ (and one of the most recognizable voices in American radio) died Sunday, and I’ve prepared a reading of his chart in tonight’s Planet Waves FM. His chart is focused on what most people find to be the most challenging house to read, or to live with — the 12th, which seems to exist behind a veil but also sometimes magnifies things to larger-than-life proportions (Madonna is another example).
Weekly Horoscope for Thursday, June 12, 2014
Few people on Earth don’t struggle with self-esteem. This is a complex issue, in part because so many are challenged, and we don’t have many healthy models of what it means to respect oneself. Self-esteem is conflated with narcissism; which is only true to the extent that one is attempting to compensate for the other. On the other side of that coin are people who just don’t feel adequate and there’s no way even to fake it.
