The sun is in empathetic, mystical and intuitive Cancer and your July 2021 horoscope is encouraging you to reconnect with your heart. This time of year is about letting compassion lead the way as you build a beautiful home for yourself. However, you may be facing more hurdles than usual as this month begins as Mars opposes Saturn on July 1, causing gears to stall and energy levels to plummet. As Venus opposes Saturn on July 6, you may feel equally as inhibited in your relationships, and as though you can’t form an emotional connection. But don’t worry; July is just getting started!

In fact, you’ll really feel the transition into this watery and emotional season by July 9, when the New Moon in Cancer radiates love throughout the cosmos. This new moon is the perfect opportunity to let go of whatever may be preventing you from truly caring about something (or someone). Cancer is a highly protective zodiac sign that values quality time with loved ones in a safe place. Spend time nurturing the most sacred parts of your life without hesitation.

Cancer season will reach new heights by July 12, when Mercury forms a trine with Jupiter, bringing bold ideas to the table. This optimistic moment is about seeking (and speaking) the truth. Watch your knowledge expand like never before! And as the sun forms a trine with Neptune on July 15, you may find it easier to let go of your ego and spread kindness toward others. Remember—we all share the same spirit!

A few changes will start to unfold by July 21. As Venus enters Virgo, you may begin taking your love life a lot more seriously. While Venus in Virgo may not be known for being super flashy or flirtatious, it is famous for inspiring you to work harder and become more dedicated to your relationship.

The sun also enters bold, romantic and creative Leo on July 22, turning up the heat and spicing things up. Time to let your freak flag fly as you embrace the fun and carefree vibes of summer! Leo is a highly dramatic zodiac sign, so it only makes sense that a full moon in Aquarius would take place the very next day, on July 23. This full moon may bring your visionary side to the forefront, inspiring you to pour your energy into a cause that matters to you, fight for your community and build a better world for all of us to enjoy!

The month ends with some major astrological shifts. On July 28, Jupiter will retrograde back into Aquarius, putting a temporary stay on its pleasure-seeking and artistically-enhancing trip through Pisces. This shift may bring back themes from your past as unfinished projects and concerns once again take up space in your mind. Use this energy to become more serious about your goals. And as Mars enters Virgo on July 29, it’s readying you for a highly productive month of August. Start putting your plans into motion! There’s no time like the present.
