What your July 2024 horoscope has in store for your zodiac sign, according to an astrologer
If you've been waiting to make a leap, the stars are *officially* aligned
Consider July the month of your wildest dreams—literally. This month is all about dreaming big, envisioning the future, and creating space for what you want. Basically, July is here to encourage all the signs to shake sh*t up and take risks, says Donna Page, an Atlanta-based astrologer with a graduate degree in counseling psychology.
Why, exactly, is this energy in the air? Well, Neptune, the planet of dreams and fantasy, begins to move retrograde on the 1st, explains Page. “This is the fantasy planet, and it wants us to be creative and really imagine our ideal world,” she says.
Along with that, there will be an emotional new moon in Cancer on July 5, which asks the zodiac to feel their feelings, no matter how uncomfortable they may be, says Page. 'The energy of the new moon in Cancer is always about getting in touch with your emotional well-being; you can release negative emotions and manifest everything you want,” Page adds.
Other important astrological happenings to watch out for this month include Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, moving into flirtatious and creative Leo. Then, the second full moon in Capricorn of 2024 illuminates on July 21, emphasising a balance between our personal and professional lives, says Page.
