Think You’re Not Compatible? You Might Be Wrong

You’re feeling grateful for your loved ones when Mercury in Leo mingles with Jupiter in Gemini on July 8. This energy supports any discussions involving your home life, family dynamics, or professional endeavors. Maybe someone pays you a compliment that leaves you feeling more self-assured, or perhaps a loved one gives you a thoughtful gift when you least expect it. You’re connecting with the feeling of abundance in all aspects of your life.

There’s more fun to be had on July 11 when Venus in Cancer links up with Neptune in Pisces. You might attend a social event, have a heartfelt conversation with an acquaintance, or learn some lucky news about a creative project. Venus, the planet of love and harmony, enters Leo on the same day. The next few weeks bring more peace and ease to your personal life. Family drama dissipates and you feel a deeper sense of security. You’ll have to contend with some tension that’s been brewing in both your personal and private lives the following day, when Venus in Leo stares down Pluto in Aquarius. Family secrets may emerge or you may confront unhealthy power dynamics. The energy can feel murky today, but addressing what’s been purposefully left in the shadows can feel cathartic. Stay true to yourself, no matter who it may upset.

Move throughout your day with caution and care when Mars and Uranus meet in your sign on July 15. These planets are both volatile and reactive, which means you may be a little bit more accident prone. This can also look like fits of repressed anger or frustration bursting through the surface. Try to find a healthy outlet. This energy will encourage you to take risks, but will have lasting consequences, so try to pause before making any life-altering decisions. Mars, the planet of action and anger, enters Gemini on July 20. The next few weeks could increase your spending and workload. This is an important time to get back on track with your budget. If you’re up for a raise or promotion don’t be shy in advocating for what you deserve.

The Full Moon in Capricorn on July 21 brings an end to an ongoing conversation. This could also be a spotlight moment for your own wisdom: Maybe you’re sharing some of your expertise through a presentation at work, on a podcast, or through publishing. On the same day, Venus in Leo gently links up with Jupiter in Gemini, bringing news that leaves you feeling secure and grateful for the important people in your life. It’s time to celebrate!

The Sun enters Leo the following day, on July 22, shifting the cosmic stage and putting you in a more introspective mood. Over the next few weeks, you may opt to stay close to home or spend time with people who you trust the most. You’re intuitively in tune with everyone and everything around you, and you might want to shelter away in your own safe space to cut through some of the extra noise. There’s more tension in the sky later that day when the Sun in Leo locks eyes with Pluto in Aquarius. You may need to address issues regarding power, control, and jealousy in your family, with loved ones, or at work.

The month closes out with Mercury entering Virgo on July 25, encouraging you to focus on pleasure and play. You may feel called to return to a hobby you used to enjoy when you were a teenager, or decide to put yourself back out there in the dating world. Pay attention to what’s taking up your mental focus over the next few weeks, because Mercury will go retrograde in this part of the sky in early August. Today, you can start picking up clues about how your personal retrograde story will unfold. For now, make time for fun, connectwith lovers, explore your pleasure, and prioritize creative projects!
