Weekly Astrological Forecast for July 1 through July 7, 2024

July 1 through July 7, 2024

Astrological highlights this week include Neptune turning retrograde, Mercury moving into the sign of Leo, and a Cancer new Moon on Friday. With all the shifts occurring this week, we’ll want to practice higher awareness and pay attention as our moods and activities change daily. Luckily Monday unfolds under a Taurus Moon, which means it’s the day to get as much done as possible before blocks or reversals arise. Tuesday is when Neptune will turn retrograde and Mercury will enter Leo. Neptune is a subtle shift as it travels backward five months out of the year, so we may not notice too much under this influence at first, but Mercury’s move into fiery Leo will bring out our expressive and generous sides for the next three weeks. The Moon will travel through Gemini Tuesday through Thursday, bringing out our imaginative and social sides. We’ll be more prone to chatting than working, as we connect with others on an intellectual level. The Cancer new Moon occurs on Friday, promising new beginnings in our emotional lives and security; be sure to make a wish! Saturday and Sunday unfold under the easy-going Cancer Moon as well, turning our focus to home and family.
