July 2018 Monthly Horoscopes
By Jennifer Angel

ARIES

Friends are important now, however, with the powerful energy of the lunar eclipse, they are likely to show their true colors, good or bad. Mostly, those in your inner circle can be relied upon, as it is as if you draw to you the people you need; in other words, the right people at the right time. Be wary about financial dealings with friends, though. You will want to get all the finer details worked out before entering into any arrangements with anyone. Be creative at work. What you have to say in the office meeting can set you above everyone else this month. Venus moves into a position that favors romance. If single, this is a time when you can suddenly meet someone wonderful, so pay attention. Get out and be social. But don’t forget family. The solar eclipse focuses your attention on home and family, with a new beginning possible in some way. And a Venus Jupiter connection can help you step into your power and own it.

TAURUS
Business gets serious this month! You can surge ahead with plans but be careful not to step on anyone’s toes. It is always good to proceed with diplomacy and with a strategic plan. Rash decisions, especially with a powerful energy of a lunar eclipse in your career zone, if you’re not careful, can lead to power struggles. However, the solar eclipse does open the door for healthy communication. Your home and family affairs take your attention, too. And although this is good time to work with others, at home or work, you don’t want to go against your intuition and be swayed to follow someone else’s plan. With an interaction between Venus and Jupiter, you can be lucky in love and this is a month to ensure you look and feel great. When you look fabulous, you have power and magic!

GEMINI
The influence of the solar eclipse can indicate that you have a new start with money this month. But it may not come without its challenges, especially as you may have to consider a family member or someone close. However, you do have an opportunity to review and reset your financial management system and improve your position in some way. Communication is important; don’t expect that everyone knows what you are thinking, be clear and concise. And as Mercury, your ruler, will go retrograde later in the month on the 26th, you will want to deal with sensitive or emotional matters before this date, if possible. Creative projects get a boost of energy; something new can prove to be a winning formula. And as Venus moves to your solar fourth house and interacts with lucky Jupiter, there is more focus on your home and family. Be conscious of having balance in your life.

CANCER
Your finances will need your attention this month and with the Sun moving to this area of your chart, things can work out to be better than you think. Working with others is advisable, but keep in mind that you may need to make some compromises to get what you want. A compromise can achieve a more favorable outcome in the end. The solar eclipse Moon is in your sign, and as it is your ruler, it can have a strong significance on your life right now. It’s a time for new beginnings, but as always, with a new beginning, you may have to let something go to make room for the new. In regard to your love life, be prepared to have a heart-to-heart conversation that can clear up a misunderstanding. And whether you are single or in a partnership, a lucky connection between Venus and Jupiter can send romance your way. The connections you have can help you with money now, so don’t be backward in asking for advice or assistance.

LEO
July is an advantageous month in many ways for Leo. There is a lot of activity in your sign. Mercury, the communication planet, in your sign can open up a creative discussion that can be enlightening, exciting and progressive. However, Mercury will go retrograde later in the month, so get things signed sealed and delivered before the 26th, if you can. The solar eclipse in the sign before yours can help you realize your dreams, hopes and wishes. During this time, you can get in touch with want you want and the journey to achieve it. The full Moon lunar eclipse right opposite your sign, in your area of relationships, can bring things to a head. If your relationship/s need a little housecleaning, then this is the time to do it. You can gain clarity as to how you really feel about someone. With a beneficial connection between Venus and Jupiter, extra cash can make its way to you, but be careful of impulsive spending.

VIRGO
There is a lot of planetary positioning and activity in your solar twelfth house, which indicates that your intuition is spot on now, so pay attention to it. The solar eclipse Moon can signify the start of a new friendship. Your social scene can heat up now with more engagements, so don’t spend all your time at work or catering to responsibilities. However, work can get a shake up with the influence of the lunar eclipse, so you will need to pay some attention to what happens with your career and business. If change happens, then what develops can be well-needed and perhaps a course correction. Venus makes her move to your sign, and interacts with lucky Jupiter, so love is definitely in the air. There’s the possibility of meeting someone you find interesting and insightful. You can gain clarity as to how you really feel about someone, and with love in your heart, take it a step further.

LIBRA
Your career is hot this month, however, it seems that whatever happens at work can have an effect on your home environment in some way. The solar eclipse indicates a fresh start at work. New energy can boost your career and business matters. You will need to be strategic with the timing of how and when you proceed, though, especially as Mercury will go retrograde on the 26th in your area of friends and connections. However, as the Sun will also move to this area of your chart, there is a good feeling of support from others. Don’t take too long in making up your mind with unfinished business. And for the first three weeks of the month, it is very likely there will be some urgency to get things rolling. If you are dealing with money matters, a connection with Venus, your ruler, and abundant Jupiter, can bring you a lucky break. Things can work out better around your home and with family this month, so that will be pleasing for you.

SCOPRIO
Your career and business matters are on fire this month! An abundance of planets in your career zone can help put you in touch with influential people. However, do not discard your own knowledge and intuitive senses. You are powerful, Scorpio, and although it is always good to get opinions from others, your instincts are sharp. The energy of this month’s solar eclipse can help you get in touch with your soul purpose and make decisions for your future. Prepare to step out of your comfort zone to grow and evolve. What comes next can be truly enlightening. And a connection between Jupiter and Venus can connect you with good friends. The lunar eclipse in your area of home and family can bring things to a head in some way. If you need to make decisions and changes, then this is the time to do it. Keep in mind that as the sands shift, after everything settles down, you will be in a better place.

SAGITTARIUS
Communication is important for Sagittarius this month. If you have something to say, then certainly step forward and speak up, but be careful to do it from your heart. No one can argue with how you feel. The more concise with your communication and true to yourself, the more heartfelt your discussions will come across. It is important to work with others, especially at work. However, with a connection between Jupiter and Venus, it’s just as important to keep your soul purpose and your inner dreams alive in your mind and follow them. If you feel your love life has been stagnant or no movement for singles, this can change this month with the possibility of meeting someone who feels like they could be a soul partner. Money matters and investments are favored, but you may not be in control, so be prepared to be a team player.

CAPRICORN
This month, things can change! Love and money are both hot on your radar and in the spotlight. And in some way, they could very well be connected. So, if you have been waiting for news either on the home or work front, and particular with money, then stand by, you may not have to wait much longer. The lunar eclipse in your financial zone, can signify the ending and beginning of something to bring you a new fresh start! And the solar eclipse, in your area of love and relationships, can put you direct in the pathway to meet someone amazing, someone who takes you and your heart totally by surprise. For couples, it’s a chance to start afresh and look forward, while leaving old baggage behind. Venus and Jupiter interact, and friends can be extremely supportive during this time. In short, during July, life can present you with a new and exciting prospective!

AQUARIUS
Work and love are both star players in your solar chart this month! There can be a lucky new start with work, however, you will need to be careful of taking control and taking over – the last thing you want to do is to step on someone’s toes. Venus will make a move and interact with lucky Jupiter sending good vibes your way for work and money. The solar eclipse in your area of balance gives you a chance to take a step back and reflect on how your life is. You can make changes now to your routine in a way that you can incorporate more of what you love in life. With an abundance of planetary positioning and activity in your love zone, the energy can make anything possible with relationships. Some of you may take your love-partnership to the next level, and singles can very well meet someone fabulous this month. Life is busy, and you need to get organized to keep up with everything.

PISCES
Your attention is most likely going to be on work, but your heart will distract you as it is only interested in love. A connection between love and money planet Venus, and lucky and beneficial Jupiter, can set in motion something amazing with love and/or work. You have a chance now to truly follow your heart and walk the path of your inner most desires and visions. This is also a time when you need to look and feel your best. The better you look, the more empowered you feel. So, don’t neglect your wellbeing and personal image. Remember, you are a spiritual being in a psychical body, so both are important. The energy of the lunar eclipse in the sign before yours can help you discard anything or anyone not worthy of your attention. And the solar eclipse energy radiates light on the true essence of who you are. Stand in your light and be the magnificent person you are!
