This Month's Astrology July 2024 (2024)

July 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:

July empowers you, dear Cancer, boosting your confidence and visibility. It's a time to shine and feel in control of your life personally. This sense of control extends to your finances, self-worth, talents, and resources, encouraging you to explore them in new and revitalizing ways.

The New Moon on the 5th is powerful for you since it occurs in your sign. It prompts a period for reinventing yourself, starting fresh, and putting personal updates or upgrades into motion. It's a time to show others a fresh new face — one that better reflects your current stage of growth — and break out of outworn patterns of greeting the world and presenting yourself. You might enjoy a boost of energy and motivation to get started. If you've wanted to make positive changes to your image, now is an excellent time to do so. You have considerable impact and personal presence.

This lunation prompts a whole new orientation, a blast of personal energy, and a sense that you're revving up. It's also a beautiful time for self-honesty as it encourages you to be more self-aware.

Supporting your goals is Mars in your friends and community sector until the 20th, pointing to the powerful benefits of activities with friends and collaboration. Even though your first instinct may be to go it alone, this is an important time for connecting with others and sharing experiences or expertise. You can experience a strong desire to go the distance for someone in your life or share a learning experience with someone. Activities that build and support you in the long term capture your interest more than those that only make you happy at the moment

Around the Full Moon on the 21st, you recognize your need for someone–or for some quality feedback! Pay special attention to what others reveal. Through epiphanies occurring now, you're awakening to your relationship goals or true feelings. If you've been ignoring your feelings for someone–or a relationship itself–this is when these things demand their share of your attention.

Still, Mars moves into your privacy sector on the 20th, pointing to a period ahead of transformations and renovations, primarily on an emotional level. This transit subtly but effectively turns your attention to problems you may have overlooked or buried! While you can feel less energetic as your priorities shuffle around or a project ends, redirecting your energies into a work-in-progress can be most satisfying. Combine this shift with the Sun's move into your stable second house on the 22nd, and you get the general message to ease down. Major new launches or beginnings should probably wait for a brighter or more innovative time. Creative pursuits can thrive if you're doing something behind the scenes or on the last stretch of a particular project.

Money matters begin to make headlines this month. There's an increasing focus on your resources and comfort levels with Mercury in your second house from the 2nd to the 25th, Venus from the 11th, and the Sun from the 22nd. These shifts stir a desire to build up your resources, improve your bottom line, and develop what you already have.

Particularly with money, business, valuables, talents, and personal possessions, incoming news, feedback from others, and hunches from within yourself can be significant, leading to a turning point. Your natural talents, the areas where you shine, and your savvy are readily discoverable and perhaps on display from the 11th.

But from the 25th, your desire to diversify and stronger curiosity leads you to interesting experiences and projects. There is also good energy with you to look at your finances. You're proactive, dealing with problems before they get a chance to grow. The need to overcome problem areas or get past something is powerful now, so take advantage. Others may be in the market or mood for your unique talents. Your inner or private world is more animated than usual, and tapping into your inner courage and finding your passion can come more readily.

July 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

July begins with Mars at the top of your solar chart, motivating you and stirring your ambitions, dear Leo. However, the Sun and Venus are transiting a hidden area of your chart until the 22nd and 11th, respectively. This signals the need for personal downtime as you wind down your solar year. You are understandably more private or insular than usual, and it's important to respect this need for solitude. Neptune's retrograde turn can pull up questions about ownership or sharing issues, reminding you to slow down and get your bearings. It's another reason to refuel.

The New Moon on the 5th is a powerful catalyst for emotional development and dealing with loose ends in your life. It marks a new beginning, offering hope and optimism as you put a project, situation, or chapter of your life behind you. You can greatly benefit from doing an emotional inventory of sorts before this date. If you need to handle a private matter or deal with an ending or a problem from the past, the week following this New Moon is powerful.

Mars in your solar tenth house until the 20th signals a need to identify, recognize, and nurture your ambitions for the best results. You're in a great position of confidence to take on responsibilities, take the lead, or work hard for what you want and need.

It's a natural time of year for some level of retreat, withdrawal, or even a sabbatical, contributing to emotional and physical renewal before your birthday month. This could be symbolic only but important as you recharge and refresh. Some things may be up in the air now, and these things need additional time to mature. It's not the time to rush.

Look for ways to improve physical and mental health through activities and mind-body healing techniques when the Full Moon on the 21st reminds you to attend to your overall well-being. It's the second big prompt to do so (the first one happened last month). It's also a time when you recognize the need to improve how you manage your daily affairs. You're now raring to go if you stalled on these things last month.

When blockages come to light, it can be a revealing, albeit raw, experience. The Full Moon on the 21st is particularly useful for using these revelations to your advantage. It's a time to take action on your feelings and epiphanies. Don't let these blockages hold you back. Instead, use them as a catalyst for change and growth.

Working with a partner towards a common goal may be part of the picture, or teaming up with a friend can take you somewhere you want to go more successfully. You might decide to take charge of a long-standing problem once and for all–you're determined to put it behind you. Others can be the source of valuable resources or advice, or networking and teamwork can be particularly beneficial to you, so be on the lookout for allies.

Mercury enters your sign on the 2nd and visits until the 25th. Venus heads in on the 11th and the Sun on the 22nd. You can find yourself resurfacing emotionally! More attention comes your way, and in turn, you seek a stronger connection to the world around you. You're likelier to come out of your shell or quietly begin attracting attention. Feelings, goals, and interests become more apparent, and confidence that you can impact the world around you is increasing.

Venus in your sign (from the 11th onward) is excellent for personal charm and healthy indulgence or self-pampering. People are attracted to you and enjoy your company or presence. These transits boost your sense of personal power and amplify your influence and presence. They also bring out your need to share your ideas and use the power of words to improve your life. Use this extra boost of visibility to further your plans. It's a fine time to consider new personal initiatives, change your presentation or appearance, and update your year-ahead resolutions.

The Sun heads into your sign on the 22nd, and Mars supports your efforts and goals from the 20th as it visits your sector of dreams, wishes, and hopes. Energies are indeed shifting as July progresses! It can be a time of special activities with friends or particularly dynamic friendships or group associations. It's a brilliant period for seeing yourself more clearly and presenting yourself in a manner that expresses you authentically for this stage of your growth. You could build a following for your ideas or work. You may be taking the lead in a group, or people look to you for guidance. New people coming into your life could inspire you to make important changes and improvements.

The last week of the month is fantastic for entertaining a dream or wish, the spirit of which carries you forward. You see your capabilities for what they are, rather than over- or under-estimating them, which is empowering. At the same time, your courage is strong and building. You radiate positive vibes and may well be the focus of attention. This is a time for being inspiring or feeling inspired and running with it. You'll also find it more comfortable than usual to put plans or ideas into motion. In fact, you're craving a hands-on or active role.
