Happy July, Aries. This month brings opulent vibes from Venus, a full moon that could mean great news for your professional life, plus the healing of old trauma. During June, you enjoyed heightened psychic abilities and a call for self-care. Early this month, these themes continue.
July kicks off with a focus on your spiritual growth. On Tuesday, July 2, dreamy Neptune goes retrograde in its home sign of Pisces and your 12th House of the Unconscious, prompting you to reconnect with your divine nature. This doesn’t mean you have to go to church, although that’s rad if it speaks to you. Instead, this is about recognizing areas where you could act a little more enlightened. We hate to call you out, Aries, but sometimes, in your desire to be right, you unintentionally can come off a little harsh towards friends and lovers. Use Neptune’s lethargic retrograde to slow down and act more intentionally.
Also, on Tuesday, July 2, chatty Mercury enters your 5th House of Pleasure. This transit makes it easier to collect on unpaid invoices and generally vibe well with those you’re closest to. However, to ensure that all conversations regarding love and money flow smoothly, remember the lessons from Neptune’s retrograde: You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
The dark new moon in caring Cancer on Friday, July 5, turns your attention to your home life. This transit encourages you to relax and stay in, making sure your living space is cozy enough for proper relaxation. You’re likely also feeling determined, especially as your ruling planet, Mars, creates a sextile with Pisces on the same day. This aspect has you super focused on your career and making money moves. It’s perfectly fine to use this weekend to plot your next steps.
The next week, starting on Tuesday, July 9, Pallas, the asteroid of wisdom, ends its retrograde and goes direct in your intense 8th House of Sex, Death, and Transformation. This helps you see things clearly, especially if you’re undergoing major transformations in your family, work life, or spiritual beliefs. Where you might have felt bogged down by indecision, you now see the best path forward to be your true self. It’s a beneficial time to celebrate your inner makeover by also treating yourself to a different hair color or a refresh to your makeup.
Don’t be afraid to capitalize on the confidence that comes with a makeover, internal or external, by pitching professional ideas, asking people out on first dates, and generally enjoying summer to the fullest. You’re blessed with a streak of luck when sweet Venus enters your exuberant 5th House of Pleasure on Thursday, July 11, helping you get what you want. This theme continues when the warrior Mars, your planetary ruler, moves into your 3rd House of Communication on Saturday, July 20. Basically, mid-July is a really excellent time to go after your needs and desires.
The Capricorn full moon falls on Sunday, July 21, illuminating your 10th House of Social Status. Mark this date, as it could bring welcome professional news. However, if you’re feeling burnt out, it’s okay to take it easy since full moons can leave you feeling edgy. These primal lunations can sometimes be difficult to make predictions about, so it’s advisable to really check in with yourself and see how you’re feeling before making plans.
When your 6th House appears, there’s no reason to worry or call a doctor, but it often is a gentle reminder to slow down.
On Monday, July 22, the sun moves into Leo and your 5th House of Pleasure. The next few weeks, marking the end of summer, are all about having as much fun as possible. Remember that it’s important to make time for your friends, Aries, while, of course, maintaining your boundaries to ensure that you get enough rest and relaxation. Messenger Mercury enters your 6th House of Health on Thursday, July 25. With Mercury at home in Virgo, you’ll find yourself more interested in self-care than ever. When your 6th House appears, there’s no reason to worry or call a doctor, but it often is a gentle reminder to slow down.
The month concludes with Chiron, an asteroid known as the wounded healer, going retrograde in your sign, Aries, starting on Friday, July 26. The therapist of the zodiac, Chiron’s retrograde in your sign, motivates you to finally release old trauma. You might find yourself processing a lot or dealing with old memories resurfacing. Allow yourself to experience this, coupled with lots of self-care and grounding exercises such as meditation, getting enough sleep, and connecting with friends to ensure that you’re healing and not ruminating. Enjoy the rest and the star-powered gifts this month brings, and we’ll see you in August.
