Weekly Horoscope Themes For July 8-15
After last week's New Moon and other major planetary events that impacted our love stories and relationships, we have much to look forward to this week. I promise it will be a complete paradigm shift in your perception of love compared to last week.
If you need a refresher,read last week's message. The same applies to this week as we are in the throes of Cancer season, which promotes the need to "feel" our way through scenarios. The linear mind craves to take the reigns with our hearts, but this alone can lead to dead ends and endless confusion. Expect this result whenever you ignore your intuition. The best part is that if you have been doing inner work or learning how to engage more with your intuition, you'll begin to see your life pan out differently.
The key to witnessing your desired changes is to align more with your heart center.
This week has more spread-out yet impactful planetary events related to our love story. Like last week, Venus takes the rein, and it will guide us to find a resolution and understanding of what has unfolded. Venus, in the sign of Cancer, will take her final curtain call to present our need to address our feelings regarding love and values.
Remembering that you deserve to be cherished and to never settle for less will build up your self-worth.
On July 8, Venus in sextile with Uranus will stimulate our need for more excitement and fun in our love lives. Try something new with your partner, or if you're single, this is your chance to revamp your dating profile. Book a photoshoot or celebrate your beauty or milestones if you're on a self-love summer path. Creatively, you'll experience breakthroughs of inspiration if you have been going through a drought period and a lack of motivation. Ultimately, this transit will make you feel alive and braver than ever in your story.
Expect a second wind that will remain.
The Sun in Cancer trines with Saturn in Pisces on July 10. Although Saturn retrograde is continuing its sluggish move, these two celestial bodies bode a message for you – regarding your process of patience and order. What is it in your life that needs structure? As you express gratitude for your small wins, you'll have more endurance to achieve your high-reaching goals. Overall, you'll feel more balanced and focused on this.
Don'tgive up!
The love planet will shift its course on July 11, but before she enters the sign of Leo, Venus trines Neptune. This celestial event is a glorious interlude before the love planet enters her fiery expression. Cosmically, this exchange will enable you to see love in its most pure light or through rose-colored glasses. It's magnificent to organize a date night or to get lost in your daydreams. Love will be smoldering and soft in its expression.
It's a period to get inspired, see the spirit in everything, and have complete self-acceptance in your journey.
On July 12, Venus, in opposition to Pluto, will present a powerful lesson involving your love story and self-worth. An aspect or scenario in your relationships needs to shift. Something has to be released to make room for purity and authenticity. Understanding that not everything is meant to fall into place as planned is a way to hold compassion for all the lessons learned. This phase presents an entirely different tempo. In the lion sign, the love planet will encourage you to be more brave and make bold moves based on your heart's desire. Flip the script and enjoy the role of being the writer of your life.
Learn the power of saying" "no" to situations that lower your vibration. Elevate and step into your bold self.
