You’ll prioritize pleasure and satisfaction on July 10, as the Capricorn full moon lights up the sky. While you’re usually productive and strategic about how you use your time, this lunation is an opportunity to let your hair down and enjoy yourself. Since this full moon unfolds in goal-oriented Capricorn, you’ll still feel the urge to be useful in these endeavors, but you’ll also feel a stronger desire to prioritize your fulfillment in a real, tangible way. You may also embrace a more realistic understanding of a current romance or hobby, encouraging you to commit more seriously to someone or something.
Mercury stations retrograde in confident Leo on July 18, drawing your attention inward toward your habits and internal conversations. During this three-week period, you’ll privately reflect on how you choose to use your voice and advocate for your own thoughts and opinions. You may feel more withdrawn during this time, but it’s the ideal opportunity to contemplate how you can effectively express yourself and share your personal message. As a Mercury-ruled sign, the way you engage with the world by sharing information is one of your most significant gifts, yet you may sometimes struggle to highlight your own talents and abilities. This transit is excellent for boosting your confidence, especially once the sun enters Leo on July 22.
While this may not be an outwardly social period for you, it’s the perfect time for you to revamp your personal image or brand. How do you want to be seen and perceived by the outside world? Leo energy may not be your personal favorite, but it serves as a reminder that there are aspects of yourself that you’ve been holding back, which deserve to be shared with the world. By the Leo new moon on July 24, your current sense of confidence and self-worth gets a hard reset. Now, you’ll be feeling like making some bold decisions behind closed doors that place your own abilities center stage. Even if you’re not comfortable showing off publicly, it’s important that you give yourself the credit you deserve.
