Also on July 4, Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters Cancer, bringing your mental focus back to your home and family. This is an introspective time and you may feel more called to be alone for a while.
The Full Moon in Capricorn on July 13 will bring career matters to a climax. If you’ve been sorting through work drama or dealing with a difficult boss, those issues take center stage. This could mark a turning point in your career, or a decision to leave your current role. A few days later on July 16, the Sun and Mercury meet at the same spot in Cancer. When a planet sits in the heart of the sun, at the same exact degree, it is strengthened. Pay attention to conversations that take place around your home, family, and living situation. You may receive a realization on how to move forward. Another piece of the work drama puzzle unfolds on July 18 when Mercury, the communicator planet, sits opposite Pluto in the sky.

This is an aligned time to put yourself out there and take some risks—You’re craving a bit more adventure and excitement in your life.

There are plenty of ways to invite in more adventure—try spending some time in nature.
The New Moon in Leo on July 28 is full of promise and expansion. New Moons are all about planting seeds for the future, and this one activates your fifth house of creativity, joy, pleasure, romance, and fertility. This is a wonderful time to focus on your self-expression. Adopting a conscious practice of doing one fun activity a few times a week could also be a wonderful way to use this energy. Also on July 28, Jupiter Retrograde begins. Over the next few months, you’ll be reflecting more on your personal growth and expansion. The month ends with some tough news on July 30, as Mercury, the planet of information, sits across the sky from austere Saturn in Aquarius.
