July Will Be The Best Month For These 6 Zodiac Signs

July has arrived, and the astrological weather seems to be generating some changes for some of the zodiac signs!

This month focuses on Cancer and Leo seasons—the rules of the Moon and Sun, respectively. The month kicks off in Cancer season, and the new moon in this sign is worth noting as a powerful opportunity to manifest and set new intentions in our lives. A few planets will move into Leo—Mercury, the planet of communication, on July 2nd and Venus, the planet of love and beauty, on July 11th—adding some boldness to speaking our minds and fostering new connections. You can’t get what you want if you don’t put yourself out there, after all.

Mars, the planet of action and ambition, will also move into social Gemini on July 20th. This can cause some feelings of restlessness, but applying the energy to good use can motivate us to connect and dig deeper into certain areas of our lives. The Sun will officially move into Leo on July 21st, shedding more light on what makes us feel most like ourselves.

Finally, the second full moon in Capricorn on July 22nd asks us to revisit the themes we encountered during the full moon last month—it’s time to bring some things full circle and understand the power of releasing old habits and expectations to embrace the new. 

While all the zodiac signs will experience the effects of these transits, a few will likely experience them more positively in significant areas of their lives. Check your signs below (Sun and Rising!) to see which zodiac signs will have the best month this July!

Cancer

It’s your time to shine, Cancer! July begins in your season, continuing the trend of focusing on your 1st House of Self and Identity. Starting July 2nd, Mercury will shift into Leo and your 2nd House of Income and Values, which can give you more confidence speaking up for what you value as well as getting your finances in order—July 11th, Venus will also enter this house, so prepare for the possibility of connections allowing you to bring in more $$$. On July 5th, the new moon in Cancer in your 1st House is ideal for setting new goals and manifesting what you hope for your life over this next year. When the full moon in Capricorn lights up your 7th House of Partnerships, this could be the time to solidify stronger commitments to the people you care for or to evaluate whether your relationships are in the healthiest place in general—this could serve as a time to release unhealthy emotional habits or connections that aren’t moving forward. It’s worth noting that Mars will move into Gemini in your 12th House of Isolation and Subconscious on July 20th. While this could cause some internal disruption, it could also be ideal for self-reflection and motivation towards healing old wounds. When you have the confidence to be yourself, what will you do with it?

Leo

You’re a phoenix ready to rise from the ashes this month, Leo, but if you want the best month, you must be willing to do the work. Cancer season has been focusing on your 12th House of Isolation and Subconscious, which likely has felt equally draining and insightful. Cancer season continues to push you into digging into your past baggage and taking steps to heal it—no one will do it for you. The new moon in Cancer on July 5th can allow you to set new intentions for moving forward, so use this period wisely. Throughout the month, other planets—such as Mercury on July 2nd and Venus on July 11th—will begin moving into your 1st House of Self and Identity, which will likely give you a boost of confidence. The Sun will complete this feeling when your season begins on July 22nd! When Mars moves into Gemini on July 20th, your 11th House of Friendships and Networking will be activated in new ways, but remember that impulsiveness could work against you here—be sure to know the details before you align yourself with certain groups or friendships.

Libra

Cancer season is pushing you to pursue your big dreams, Libra! Your 10th House of Career and Public Image will get the spotlight, and the new moon on July 5th, in particular, could be an auspicious time for a promotion or raise or setting goals to chart a new course altogether. As Mercury and Venus move into Leo and your 11th House of Friendships and Networking, you could find that conversations and collaborations go a long way in getting you where you want to be. When the full moon in Capricorn occurs, it’s time to focus on obtaining a stronger work-life balance, especially if your career continues to move positively. What doors will you walk through, and will you be ready for them as they arrive?

Scorpio

It’s time to change things up, Scorpio. Cancer season has been lighting up your 9th Hose of Travel, Higher Education, and Philosophy, and with the new moon appearing in this house on July 5th, you can set grounded intentions to expand your worldviews and horizons to even higher levels. As Mercury (July 2nd) and Venus (July 11th) move into Leo, speaking your mind and building relationships with mentors in your chosen career field could stand to take you farther than you can see. Once we move into Leo season, your 10th House of Career and Public Image will officially get the spotlight, so it’s time to prepare yourself to get noticed and take on more leadership roles these next few weeks. The full moon in Capricorn may push you to release old ideals and expectations of staying rooted in what you know—it’s time to make room for the new. Are you ready for it?

Pisces

Sparks are flying for you this month, Pisces! Cancer season continues to light up your 5th House of Creativity and Pleasure, and it’s energy worth indulging in. As the new moon appears in this house, it’s time to set some new intentions surrounding what brings you joy and pleasure in this life. As Mercury, Venus, and the Sun make their way into your 6th House of Habits, Routines, and Wellness, you could find that taking your genuine happiness and using it to motivate your daily habits could change your life in ways you can’t see. The opportunities are open to you—are you willing to see where they lead?

Aries

This month, rest is essential before you can cut loose, Aries. Cancer season has been bringing attention to your 4th House of Home and Roots, and with the new moon making an appearance, it’s time to redefine what home and legacy mean to you. Your impulsive nature can sometimes get you in over your head, and this season has been teaching you what it means to recharge and reset. As Mercury and Venus move into your 5th House of Creativity and Pleasure, you’re starting to step into your own once again, ready to embrace who you are and pursue what lights a fire underneath you. This intensity will only continue during Leo season, especially with the Sun in its natural ruler and house of joy in your chart. Are you ready to explore all the ways you can be yourself to the fullest?
