Aries July 2022

Mars’ entrance to decadent Taurus on July 4 prompts impulsive spending. While certain purchases made now will accrue value over time, don’t submit to every materialistic instinct. Mercury enters Cancer on the same day, easing communication with family members and close friends. You’re more amenable to deep or emotional conversations for the next two weeks. The July 13 Capricorn full moon lights up your business sphere but could provoke a power struggle with a superior! Affirm your authority without compromising your ethics or inner peace. 

Loyal relationships become more important to you once Venus slips into Cancer on July 17. You might use this time to beautify your home, making it into a space for hosting and entertaining. Mercury enters Leo and your sphere of self-expression on July 19, facilitating light-hearted and entertaining discussions. However, on the same day, wounded-healer asteroid Chiron stations retrograde, encouraging you to review insecurities that are keeping you from stepping into leadership roles. The sun then enters Leo and your zone of joy on July 22. This month you’ll attract admirers by being your authentic self. Taking a few risks in your creative work or love life will pay off! 

During the July 28 Leo new moon, set intentions for embracing confidence and inner strength. Chase your passions! Jupiter’s retrograde station on the same day seems to stall you from achieving a personal milestone. Instead, remember that too much growth, too fast, can make your goals stressful and unsustainable. Review your desires and check self-destructive behaviors. You’ll have more luck revisiting this matter toward the end of the year.

Aries June 2022

On June 2, Mercury stations direct in Taurus, allowing you to speak mindfully about your values. Financial setbacks experienced during Mercury retrograde can now be course-corrected. Saturn stations retrograde on June 4, prompting you to review your plans for the future. Responsibilities to friends and team dynamics will command your focus until October 22. Venus and Uranus’ alignment on June 11 forecasts shake-ups in money matters. This date can signal windfalls or sudden losses, so plan purchases accordingly and avoid risky investments. 

Mercury re-enters Gemini on June 13, resolving retrograde misunderstandings and restoring your quick wit. The Sagittarius full moon on June 14 requires you to balance facts and faith and embrace experiences outside of your comfort zone. Put in the work you know must be done and own your leadership potential rather than expecting the universe to magically deliver growth opportunities to your door. The sun’s entrance to Cancer on June 21 finds you focused on family, home, and tradition in the month ahead. Yet homebody vibes won’t break your social stride when Venus enters Gemini on June 22, helping you to attract new friendships and neighborhood connections. 

Neptune’s retrograde station on June 27 encourages you to ditch distracting pipe dreams and assess which of your creative aspirations are worth pursuing. During the June 28 Cancer new moon, set intentions for self-care, relaxation, and decompression. Although you might be inspired to make some big, bold declarations, avoid overextending yourself. Success will be achieved through patience, not through pushing an agenda at this time.
