July 17 through July 23, 2023
We’ll awake to a Cancer new Moon on Monday, which will instill us with the drive to nurture ourselves and others. The generosity continues on Tuesday and Wednesday as the Moon dances through “big-hearted” Leo and inspires us to lean in and reconnect with those closest to us. We’ll have to do a little work this week, of course, and Thursday and Friday’s Virgo Moon makes these the ideal days to take care of anything we can’t put off until next week. The Sun will make its grand entrance into Leo on Saturday, heralding a four-week cycle of self-love, generosity, and strength of heart. A few hours later Venus will turn retrograde, kicking off a six-week cycle of romance and relationship energy that we’ll need to pay close attention to. This is the aspect that can bring lovers back from the past, (though not necessarily for a reconnection), or create the opportunity to magically connect with your soul mate. If we’re in a relationship that has run its course, this will become more apparent. And if we have been neglecting the valued relationships in our lives, this will become apparent as well. All in all expect a change in some area of your relationship sector over the next month and a half, which is sure to work in your favor!
