JULY 2021 Horoscope
FIREWORKS
July skies spark fireworks, fun, romance, and recreation. C’est la vie!
July skies spark fireworks and fun as planets migrate into the magnanimous sign of Leo. An easy month to enjoy and move forward after June’s chaotic cosmos filled with six retrogrades, an eclipse, and a rare 22-year alignment. The first week of July is the “clean up” from Mercury Retrograde’s summer review period, so give things until about 7/8 to completely get adjusted. Mercury’s realignment is complimented by a gentle Cancer New Moon that weekend, so notice that suddenly lots of things are happening or falling into place between 7/8-11. A spectacular connection between the lovers Venus and Mars that happens every two years sizzles on 7/13 making it hot for sexual chemistry, male-female collaboration, or putting yourself in the spotlight. Sun and Venus simultaneously change positions alongside an Aquarius Full Moon marking a favorable bundle of days for romantic or financial decisions from 7/21-23. The month finishes with a switcheroo as three planets simultaneously change positions in three days from 7/27-29, so you may suddenly change directions or feel pulled in conflicting directions. Wait until 8/1 to act on it if you’re feeling unsure. July overall is ripe for festivity, flair, romance, and leisurely rendezvous!
7/1-4 INDEPENDENCE DAY.
Mars-Saturn brings energy and structure into focus on 7/1-2. Positively used, this helps organize, formalize, and give backbone to initiatives you direct attention towards. Negatively used, this can feel like stifled action or stagnant frustration in myself or others; like wanting to get something going but feeling like it won’t accelerate.
Mars-Uranus brings energy and unpredictability into explosive outbursts on 7/3-4. Positively used, this can finally express, output, or manifest the pent-up initiatives waiting to actualize from earlier this week. Negatively used, this can lead to outbursts with unintended consequences or strange behaviors from other people; their energy coming out in a weird way.
People can generally be a little tense under these alignments. In some cases, these alignment can be accident prone.
7/8-11 MOMENTUM.
Mercury fully realigns after its retrograde brought hiccups and delays in June, so Thursday 7/8 might be an action-packed day with lots of happenings that seem to fall easily into place. Decisions or opportunities hanging out in the ether may suddenly gain momentum.
The Cancer New Moon smooths things over during the weekend, allowing things to softly pass Friday 7/9-Sunday 7/11. This lunation’s domestic nature makes the weekend ideal for focusing on home or family.
7/13 FIREWORKS. Venus and Mars, the lovers, kiss in the sky— a rare makeout session that happens once every 2 years. Spark some sexual chemistry, a glamorous social rendezvous, or benefit from male-female collaboration. Center stage puts you at the advantage. Be EXTRA!
7/21-23 FAVORABLE.
The heroic Sun and value-driven Venus simultaneously change signs alongside the freedom-seeking Aquarius Full Moon. An extremely favorable 72-hour window for important meetings, pivotal decisions (especially pertinent to love or money), or planning major events. Go big! For some, this could represent the advancement of romantic situations or financial decisions that have been burgeoning since February.
7/27-29 CHANGING DIRECTION. Three planets- Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter- change signs successively in three days, so you may experience a sudden change of direction or feel the conflict of being pulled in too many directions from 7/27-29. If you feel unsure, wait for the whirlwind to settle around 8/1 and confirm your path then.
Specifically, as Jupiter retrogrades into it’s starting position at the beginning of 2021 we may revisit old social issues until New Year’s Day that we thought we’d progressed past: vax safety, digital privacy and censorship, AI, extraterrestrials and outer space, power grid challenges, and gender and racial equality.
