June–July 2025 is a pressure cooker. Are we witnessing the spark that ignites full-scale war? The stars reveal who’s bluffing, who’s baiting, and who might strike first.
Someone very wise once advised me that to be a stabilizing force as you walk with someone in crisis, "stay calm, stay present to the drama (don't lie about the gravity of the situation or run away) but try not to fall into the stew." Just what you said above. A tall order for these times, but so important. Thank you!
That is the challenge of these times - how to name what is happening truthfully without stoking unnecessary fear. It is a tightrope walk. i do my best not to fall into the stew, as you say! That might be my new favorite saying for the week!
Great question! You’re absolutely right that Cancer and Leo aren’t natural squares by sign (same for Leo/Virgo). But the nuance is that I’m tracking degree-based tension, not just sign-based friction. The signs might be neighbors, but when planets align at these degrees, the aspect is mathematically real and astrologically potent.
Appreciate you double-checking! Love a reader who keeps the math honest.

Curious as to how something in Cancer can square something in Leo. Ditto the Leo/Virgo square you mention.

Probably need a different word to explain the concept. Is parallel the one I’m looking for?
