Friday, JULY 4

Venus aligns with Uranus just before Venus moves into Gemini today (Uranus will enter Gemini on the 7th). This transit encourages us to let go of rigidity. The need to express ourselves freely and openly comes on strongly. It’s a time when we go a little off-script socially. Whether we’re aware of it or not, we’re itching for a change! Connecting with this desire can help us steer and navigate better.

For the time being, we value stimulation and newness over permanence. We lose our fear of taking risks in love, social situations, and with pleasure. There can be infatuations, whims, gossip, and unexpected opportunities, both socially and financially. We crave more personal freedom and social excitement.

Venus enters Gemini today, and it will visit the sign until the 30th. During this cycle, curiosity guides us, motivating us on romantic and social levels. We’re drawn to variety and become remarkably more sociable, engaged, interested, and communicative. Our interactions are lighter, but we may also maintain some emotional distance.

Attractions often begin with words in the weeks ahead, as we bond more readily on a mental level. However, we should be mindful of our fickleness with affections and pleasures, a trait more likely to surface during this time.

Neptune stations and turns retrograde today, a period that will last until December 10th.

This station may obscure our affairs, making it challenging to see things clearly this week. While the retrograde cycle can be a time of indecision or feeling in limbo, it can also be a period of personal discovery and increased receptiveness.

There can be some disappointment or deflation with the shift occurring now. However, even if we’re putting some of our dreams on hold, our new thinking can lead us along a new and improved path.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Scorpio today at 5:34 AM EDT.
