July 2021 Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July 2021

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until July 11th:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar seventh house--your partnership sector. This can be a time of much learning through the mirror of close relationships. It's not the time to push your agenda or personal plans forward; rather, it's a cycle in which you are at your best when you recognize the need to form alliances, to give back to a special someone, and to compromise in order to find some balance in your life.

It's a strong period for putting yourself into another person's shoes and to better understand him/her. You may be meeting with someone strong and assertive by nature now, or a partner is more assertive and needy of attention. There may be some competitive feelings between you and a significant other now. Focus is on reconciliation, forming or cementing bonds, diplomacy, consultation, one-on-one interactions, and negotiations. You may feel a little drained physically now, temporarily.

From July 12th forward:

The Sun energizes your sector of transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others' money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery.

All that is deeply personal comes into focus now. Intimate matters are especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic "junk" or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life's secrets.

This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year's events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more practical level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now more than usual.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until July 13th: 

Venus continues to move through your solar eighth house during this period. You are attracted to the deeper elements of relationships and social interactions now, rather than what you meet on the surface. Mysteries fascinate you and you could be looking for others' motives for doing and saying what they do. It's a good time to feel supported by others, whether it's financially or emotionally. It's also a strong cycle for discovering your own hidden talents as well as fascinating things about a partner.

From July 13th forward: 

Venus graces your solar ninth house during this period. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until July 3rd: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar sixth house. This is an excellent cycle for improving your skills, objectively identifying your weaknesses so that you can work on them, and for finding flaws in your work methods or approach to daily activities so that you can make necessary changes.

You might be especially focused on list-making and to-do lists, as well as organizing things around you. The need to communicate about your work, health, and other daily affairs, or with co-workers, is especially strong now. Negative expression of this position is worrying about sixth house matters (work, health, pets, and so forth) rather than finding ways to improve these things.

From July 3-22 forward: 

Mercury transits your solar seventh house. You tend to weigh the pros and cons of every issue during this cycle, taking into account others' needs as well as your own. Some indecisiveness is possible now, simply because you naturally entertain opposing viewpoints. You have a strong desire to cooperate and communicate with others now. You feel most comfortable spending time with people on a one-to-one level, or with those with whom you share a personal history.

Interestingly, your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue with others during this window. You may be doing public relations work, counseling, negotiating, or arbitration during this cycle. There is a lot of emphasis on communications with partners and best friends at this time. You can use the power of words to advise others or to make peace with people in your life. You are more diplomatic than usual during this transit.

From July 23rd forward: 

Mercury transits your solar eighth house. You are more intuitive now than usual, picking up all of the hidden cues from people around you and reading between the lines. This is an excellent cycle in which to do some financial planning and strategizing.

Research is also highly favored. It's easier for you to approach sensitive, intimate, and personal matters with rationality and logic. As such, this is a great time to open up conversations about topics that normally might cause waves, such as those revolving around the sharing of power, intimacy, and finances.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until July 13th:

Mars continues to energize your solar eighth house. This is a less outwardly assertive or aggressive stage for you as you take the time to process recent events in your life and to develop strategies for going after what you want in the future. You are more observant than active during this cycle, and more strategic and deliberate when you do take action. There may be an increase in sexual appetite now. It's an excellent period for eliminating wasteful activities. Shared finances can come into focus, and you might feel an increased need to take charge of these matters. This could lead to disputes and disagreements if you are not careful or sensitive in your dealings with others.

From July 14th forward:

Mars animates and energizes your solar ninth house. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Overview Horoscope:

July 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Sagittarius:

The month ahead brings lovely energy for attracting good things to you, dear Sagittarius. While you're coming across as confident, much is going on under the surface of things in the first weeks of July. It's a potentially beautiful month for devoting more time and energy to passion projects, learning, and extracurricular activities.

Although with some trial and error involved, it's also a healthy and dynamic month for relationships. You're attracting people into your life who make your life easier, and your appeal is easy and natural. The impulsive New Moon on the 9th can trigger a quick, sweeping decision--perhaps you want to leave something behind and start fresh now. If conditions have been frustrating, you might decide to go in an entirely new direction. It can otherwise be a time of motivation to start a financial plan, take out a loan or consolidate, pay off debt, or work in accounting or research. Taking charge of the areas of life where you feel uncomfortably dependent on others comes naturally at this time. It might involve getting rid of some debt or clutter, or it might go deeper than that--you might find or renew a passion. You're paying extra attention to emotional and psychological renewal.

July is robust for self-development, feeling more powerful and in charge, and making positive lifestyle changes. It seems in reach to achieve the right balance between introspection and external focus. You're more interested in developing skills than producing right now, although the desire for results is building. In fact, focusing on professional goals and responsibilities in the coming months towards the end of July and into August can be most rewarding.

Until the 21st, Venus moves in harmony with your sign, inspiring you to seek out new interests and experiences. You have a stronger attraction to cultural events at this time. Extracurricular activities can figure strongly now as you're ready and willing to step a little out of your comfort zone. If you're teaching, guiding, or otherwise influencing and inspiring others, your enthusiastic presentation invites people to follow your lead, making it a particularly excellent time for promotional or networking activities and otherwise spreading the word.

Responsibilities to your daily affairs, errands, and other duties and tasks can tie you down at times. Attention should be on fixing problems so that you can move on.

Still, you're in fine shape for competitions or challenging yourself to beat a personal best. As you share your enthusiasm with others, you strengthen your connections. Good energy is with you for leading, guiding, teaching, and sharing your expertise and knowledge. There can be new channels for self-expression opening to you, or you may be using the current channels available to you in more efficient and powerful ways. This is a time for reaching out beyond your usual bounds, and possibly meeting people who introduce you to new cultures and perspectives.

From the 15th, Chiron turns retrograde in your solar fifth house, and it's time to look within rather than to serve others blindly without attending to your own needs. There could be some slowdowns or reassessments in the areas of romance, creativity, or entertainment.

Venus heads to the top of your solar chart on the 21st, and Mars will follow suit on the 29th, putting you in a great position for work, career, goals, and reputation. Your professional and public appeal increase. You're bringing more creativity, energy, panache, and charisma to your job or public life. You have the chance to shine, and you may even meet someone special through your business dealings. There can be pleasant recognition or a boost of popularity.

On the other hand, the Sun and Mercury head into your spirit sector on the 22nd and 27th, respectively. These influences extend a theme of learning, sharing ideas, and reaching out beyond the usual routine. If a getaway, new course, promotional campaign, or publishing project are possible, these transits can push it forward. Excitement and motivation to soak in information and acquire new knowledge figure strongly. The mood is often light, sociable, energetic, and interactive.

The Full Moon on the 23rd can stir up a hectic period when you need to take care of essential errands or tie up loose ends, but also a highly enlightening time when it's easier to follow your heart.

You would be wise to watch for hasty statements and actions. Pushing your usual boundaries with learning and communications can be good for you, as long as it's not excessive. You have a strong desire to speak, know, and share your personal truths.

The last week of July is also suitable for grabbing the lead with confidence. You're likely to be ahead of the competition if you're even noticing them at all. You might turn a limiting situation that has weighed you down in the past into a powerful motivator for new goals and ambitions.
