Money Talks
One area of your life under the cosmic spotlight this month is money and it’s here where you’re wise to focus your ambition. This is because action planet Mars is in Gemini and your personal money sector throughout July.
Gemini is the star sign linked to communication. Therefore, it’s a good time to draw up financial plans, do your accounts and be vocal in what you want to achieve. Keep your eyes firmly fixed on your long-term goals and stay steady in your belief to earn well.
On the 4th, Mars runs into wild-card Uranus, not the best date to take an impulsive risk, unless you’re a trader or financial whizz kid. Sometimes, you can win big under Uranus but it’s an erratic and unpredictable influence.
Also this month, communication planet Mercury is retrograde up until the 23rd and Mercury is Gemini’s ruling planet. Therefore, you may be engaged in a war of words regarding what you’re paid or what you’re paying out. Or perhaps, you’re playing a waiting game when it comes to money and finances.
The activity in Gemini is buzzing and lively. Yet, your ruling planet Venus enters your fellow earth sign Virgo on the 9th which favours comfort, security and a steady through wind. Venus will clash with Uranus on the 13th and Mars on the 29th which suggests finances could be potentially rocky this month.
Virgo rules children and lovers in your horoscope, entertainment and your creative pursuits. Perhaps, you’re keen to spend less and invest more. Or you’re learning what works for you financially and where change is required.
Timing Is Key
The Sun is in Cancer until the 22nd, your communication sector. Plus, this is where you find communication planet Mercury retrograde in Cancer up until the 23rd. This is a double-whammy retrograde phase with the communication planet on go slow in your communication sector.
Therefore, you’re doubly wise to take the pace slow and not rush into anything. If you’re involved in any kind of misunderstandings with a neighbour, sibling or someone in your community, keep your emotions in check.
What Mercury retrograde is good for is diving beneath the surface to find out more. This gives a nod towards studying or learning something new. Or perhaps, you’re on a fact-finding mission or doing research work.
Events on or around the New Moon in Cancer on the 14th could be when you get a breakthrough or things start to make sense. This is because, the day before, the 13th, there’s a Sun/Mercury cazimi conjunction. This symbolises the midway point of the Mercury retrograde phase and it’s often a time of insight when news comes to light.
A New Moon is a symbol of new beginnings so take note of what occurs. Yet, hold off taking action where possible until Mercury turns direct ten days later. Use the cazimi conjunction on the 13th to follow things up, have a heart-to-heart or important conversation.
Family Goals
On the 22nd, the Sun joins big planet Jupiter in Leo and your home and family sector. This combination is generous and open-hearted. Plus, the two planetary bodies come together one week later on the 29th.
This is often considered one of the luckiest dates of the year when the light of the Sun is enhanced by expansive Jupiter, the planet of opportunity and growth.
Plus, this year, there’s a Full Moon on the same day, the 29th, cutting across the Leo/Aquarius axis of the zodiac and the foundations of your horoscope. Full Moons add drama and emotion to the mix. Yet, they represent celebration and a culmination of plans.
What takes place towards the end of July could bring something special. A new family chapter or a new home on the horizon. This is all linked to what’s happening with the Big Pattern and the modern planets, so keep reading.
The Big Pattern
If you’re a typical Sun Taurus, you can be resistant to change. Yet, this month, the stars are calling you out to do things differently, keep up-to-date with modern trends and be one step ahead of the rest of the pack. This kicks in during the Big Pattern from the 15th to the 25th.
This is when Uranus in Gemini and your personal money sector, Neptune in Aries and your hidden sector & Pluto in Aquarius and your career and vocation sector are working together. And, on the 20th/21st, expansive Jupiter in Leo in your home and family sector joins the party.
This links your past with your future. It may be connected to the cycle of karma and the work you’ve put in previously to provide for your family and your future financial security. It’s a reminder to trust your instincts, which are a natural part of your earth sign archetype. Connect with your inner knowingness and you instinctually make the right moves.
Perhaps, you’re looking towards retirement. Or you’re gearing up to step into a position of power and influence. It can work either way. You might take redundancy or be caught up in a situation linked to corruption or wrong-doing. Ready or not, you’re being pulled into the new era.
The air signs – Gemini & Aquarius – are logical and rational and you’re a down-to-earth earth sign – you call a spade a space. Yet, this is a time to be open to your spirit guides, your inner voice, a different kind of revelation and awakening.
Mercury Retrograde Do’s & Don’ts

- rest & retreat, take a break, go on holiday
- do your research ready to act when Mercury turns direct
