A full moon in ambitious Capricorn on July 3 gives you the idea to mix business with pleasure, but be sure to get closure on one entanglement before starting another.

It’s very risky trying to successfully combine your job and your love life during this strict lunation.
The lunar North Node enters your independent sign on the seventeenth, reminding you that you don’t need anyone to “complete” you.

On July 10, an intensely emotional Mercury-Pluto opposition brings some interesting conversations between you and a current or future partner about things that you might not want to talk about.

Fierce Mars follows Pallas into your self-obsessed first house that same day, giving you an excessive boost of criticism regarding others. How do you expect a current or potential partner to live up to your unreasonably high demands? Expecting perfection from yourself is one thing, Virgo, but expecting it from someone you care about is unfair.

Libra
Venus, goddess of love and your celestial leader, is in warm Leo to start the month, giving your social zone a boost of outgoing charm.

That’s the least you deserve, right?!
Scorpio
Your power player leader Mars is paired up with exciting Leo and your ambitious tenth house as July begins, and you’re ready to get the most out of life.

Action-packed Mars moves on to critical Virgo on July 10, so you’ll be looking for perfection for the remainder of the month.

The answers are within you now, and if you need to make some changes, your inner strength will carry you through. Believe in yourself and your ability to know what’s right for your own future.
Quick-moving Mercury leaves caring Cancer to enter attention-seeking Leo on the tenth, making you the center of your own romantic universe.

The confident sun also pairs with the regal Lion starting on July 22, joining Mercury and Venus, which are also soaking up that big Leo energy. You feel like a million bucks, and you deserve to be with someone who treats you that way. With all you have to offer, there’s zero reason to settle.
Pisces

The sun moves into fun-loving Leo on the twenty-second, at the same time Venus in Leo goes retrograde. With all this energy in your critical sixth house, you might be too self-conscious to let loose and have a good time. Do your best to put that self-doubt to rest, Pisces. You’re amazing, flaws and all.
