Big shifts are unfolding this week!

On July 7, Venus in Gemini aligns with Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, intensifying our desires and adding depth and power to our words. Flirty conversations might carry more weight than expected, and connections could take a seductive, transformative turn.

Also on July 7, Uranus enters Gemini, where it will remain until 2033. This marks a new era of disruption and evolution in how we think, speak, learn, and connect. Expect radical changes in technology, social media, education, and the way we relate to information.

The Full Moon in Capricorn on July 10 offers a grounded emotional reset. It’s the perfect time to make rational decisions, set long-term goals, and get real about what we’re building—emotionally and materially.

On July 11, the Sun in Cancer harmonizes with the Nodes of Destiny, helping us reflect on the direction of our lives. This is a karmic turning point. You may feel called to choose a different path—one that feels more aligned with your soul’s evolution.

Finally, Saturn retrograde begins in Aries on July 13, before dipping back into Pisces on September 1. This retrograde will last until November 27 and invites us to reevaluate our boundaries, responsibilities, and leadership style. It’s a time to mature, commit, and boss up—especially where we’ve been avoiding accountability.

Aries

You’re being forced to evolve into a new emotional and mental space. The caveat is that you may not be ready to move forward and leave the past behind. Just because you are transforming does not mean you can’t be nostalgic and sentimental whenever the mood strikes.

Taurus

Friends may push your relationship to the limit, so it’s essential to set major boundaries with them to prevent this situation from happening. You should not feel bad for saying “no” when your limits are being pushed. Firm boundaries will help you both maintain the friendship.

Gemini

You should release the relationships that aren’t working for you instead of trying to keep them going. The moment you let go of these toxic situations and friendships, you will feel more even-keeled and able to blossom into the person you were meant to be without the negativity.

Cancer

Some people may encourage your dreams, but you need a reality check. The truth is that you haven’t been focusing on the aspects of life that you need to, which is creating issues in your immediate life. You don’t have to respond to every text, but don’t completely blow people off.

Leo

Problems in your immediate circle may seem bigger than ever if you don’t take control of the situation. Create the narrative you want instead of letting life happen and the cards fall where they may. It’s your life. Therefore, you must accept and take on accountability for your actions.

Virgo

There comes a time in all relationships when the honeymoon ends, and you must stop living in a dream world. Waking up from the haze may give you a love hangover, but you need to get out of a self-deceptive space you have been living in.

Libra

Finding meaning and structure in your daily routine will be seemingly easier than ever. Committing to an activity in your local community or an online class will help you take on anything that comes your way and allow you to find joy in life's mundane situations.

Scorpio

Although romance is in the air, does this mean you have to give up much of yourself to satisfy your partner? Allowing yourself to balance what you give and the space you hold only for yourself is essential for you to do now.

Sagittarius

Finding one’s place is hard, even for an adventurous and wise spirit. Allowing yourself to connect with your ancestors and your family tree will be healing. It will enable you to find the place and space in the universe where you entirely belong and align with.

Capricorn

It’s not like you to have your head in the clouds, but lately you’re struggling to keep yourself grounded. This will make you more level-headed right now. Your thoughts might be confusing, so journal them to connect with your sentiments.

Aquarius

Understanding that your finances are limited is pivotal at the moment. You shouldn’t live an indulgent lifestyle if you’re on a budget. Keep your finances organized and intact to figure out the best way to navigate these monetary struggles and avoid financial hardships that can manifest now.

Pisces

Some of the secrets you’ve been keeping hidden are coming out of the closet. Rather than ignore them, it’s best to get a handle on the matter and see you serve your skeletons before others do. Then you don’t have to worry about what is said.
