â Aries: Direct your attention and focus this week on reframing all things about home. If anything isnât completely fulfilling, set your sights on refreshing the existing or calling in something new.
â Taurus: Get out of your comfort zone in the realm of all things communication. If anything isnât an open channel for your authenticity, seek alternatives for your valuable words and ideas.
â Gemini: Consider this week as an opportunity for a personal audit of all resources, income, and spending. If anything feels imbalanced, redistribute and clear space for new channels.

Weekly Astrology Summary:
This weekâs cosmic momentum begins to build as we approach mid-July. Getting higher in the sky and leaving the dramatic Leo flames behind, Venus shifts into the zodiac sign Virgo on July 9th. Venus begins processing and gets to service work immediately as the journey through these early degrees is accompanied by support and integrated lessons from Chiron and a meetup with the south node of the moon (July 11th). Thereâs personal and collective motivation in this energy for letting go, release, or a final expertly executed excision of something that may be like a dead weight. Weâll reach the mid-point of the Mercury retrograde and begin a brand new Mercury cycle on July 12th as Mercury reaches the heart of the sun in nurturing, yet protective Cancer. Something in our emotional caverns is surfacing and ready to become a new part of our mentality.
Mercury leads the way and clears the waters for the Cancer new moon on July 14th (5:43 a.m. ET) occurring one zodiac degree away from the imprint of Mercuryâs new cycle. This new moon has deep, beautiful, fresh energy with which to craft intentions with intuition and grace. With the new Mercury and lunar cycles beginning so close and in the moonâs domicile, reflect, receive, and remember that which you want to manifest in your mind and in your inner world. This weekâs horoscopes are focused on the new Mercury cycle and the Cancer new moon; see the above horoscope for your rising sign for more specific insight and guidance.

By the end of this week, weâll begin shifting momentum into the diverse energies of mid-late July. Hereâs an excerpt about this weekâs key dates:
July 9th - Venus is done being dramatic and gets to work shifting into Virgo. Iâve witnessed Venus in Virgo as an alchemical goddess. This isnât Venusâs happy place, yet with a trine to Chiron in Taurus, and a meetup with the south node of the moon, there will be magick and an alchemical, slow-burn release to experience. The exact conjunction with the south node is on the 11th.
July 12th - A new Mercury cycle begins with the cazimi in Cancer.
July 13th - Venus in early Virgo squares off with Uranus in early Gemini. Perhaps something unexpected comes up that requires addressing or release in a relationship. Venus will begin squaring off with Mars next; donât ignore whatever comes up with the Uranus square off.
July 14th - Cancer new moon (5:43 a.m. ET). The sun and the moon meetup in the moonâs domicile, almost at the same degree as the Mercury cazimi. This is ripe, fresh, new energy; craft your intentions with intuition and grace!
đ«đ New Mercury cycle and new moon blessings to all,
