July Horoscopes 2024
ARIES
March 21 – April 19
LOVE AND DATING
Guess what Aries? There’s a spicy fling on the horizon as conversation planet Mercury hits up love planet Venus, giving you the chance to spark meaningful convos and hot new connections. The advice here is to seek out potential partners in locations where you usually wouldn’t frequent. Already coupled-up? You and your partner should try going outside your comfort zone and surprising each other in some way!
CAREER AND MONEY
Watch your spending this month and avoid making any huge money moves — whether it’s pondering a more exxy apartment or buying a fuck-off expensive luxury item that you really don’t need as your ruling planet Mars is linking up with chaotic Uranus in your finance sector midway through the month. Leo Season kicking off on July 22 will bring a surge of creativity to your soul and you’ll be crushing it at all your work and non-work related projects.
LIFE IN GENERAL
Cancer Season is a time to reconnect with your nearest and dearest and make sure everything’s all good on the homefront. You’ll have the opportunity to do so when the Cancer new moon hits on July 5 in particular. Use this time to strengthen and perhaps even heal the bonds you have with your family, close friends and housemates.
TAURUS
April 20 – May 20
SEX + DATING
Have you had a mad friend crush on someone but you’ve been too nervous or shy to try and take it to the next level? The new moon hitting on July 5 will bring with it the opportunity to spark new friendships, so go ahead and ask your soon-to-be bestie out on a friendship date!
CAREER + WORK
Something’s been holding you back from crushing it at work. Not to worry, the Capricorn full moon on July 21 will help you cut through the nonsense and get shit done! Whatever it is that’s holding you back from reaching your full potential, cut that shit out so you can power through on your quest for world domination.
LIFE IN GENERAL
Although Taureans typically tend to be more thoughtful and calculated, this month you’re likely to be impulsive and unpredictable as Mars hits Uranus in your sign. Try getting out of your comfort zone and trying something new. I know that sounds terrifying, but things have been getting a lil dull lately, haven’t they? It’s time to shake the decks!
GEMINI
May 21 – June 21
SEX + DATING
Are you harbouring resentments and negative feelings towards a certain someone? Well the Capricorn full moon on July 21 invites you to unpack these feelings and figure out a way to course correct your relationship. This doesn’t necessarily have to be a romantic partner, btw. Could be anyone!
WORK + FINANCE
Your financial situation doesn’t look like it’s getting any better so now’s the time to do something about it, thanks to the stern, disciplined and money-focused sign of Capricorn beaming in with a full moon, AKA potent get-shit-done energy. Around the Capricorn full moon on July 21, sit down and come up with ways to either make more money or curb your spending. Yep. It’s time to go on a budget and this time, actually stick to it! Don’t worry, idea planet Mercury hits up luck planet Jupiter a few days later, helping you dream up all kinds of money-saving/making schemes.
LIFE IN GENERAL
If you’ve been a little down on your confidence lately, do not blame yourself. It’s the universe. Cancer Season’s energy has put you in an analytical state where you’ve been questioning your thoughts, feelings and life choices, which is totally sweet! It’s necessary for growth. Come Leo Season, your spark will return and you’ll have a newfound confidence.
CANCER
June 22 – July 22
SEX + DATING
You’ve been having a bit of a break from the dating game but guess what? Break’s over! The Capricorn full moon on July 21 will reinvigorate your soul and you’ll have a bunch of cuties knocking on your door. And for those in relationships, you can expect some sexy times and hot dates with your other half.

FINANCE + CAREER
Leo Season is typically party season but you might find that hitting the town is an impossible venture for you with your current financial sitch. It’s not totally your fault. You see, Mercury, Venus and the sun are all in your money sector this month, so your focus is on mending your money woes. In the lead-up to Leo Season, start finding ways to save (and make!) money. You are a year older now, after all.
LIFE IN GENERAL
Dream big this month, especially around July 11 as dreamy planet Neptune hits up beauty planet Venus. Allow yourself to have a romantic view of the world and channel this energy in everything you do from creative endeavours to your fit choices.
LEO
July 23 – August 22
SEX + DATING
Your love life will be peaking midway through the month when love planet Venus enters your sign on July 11. The planet also governs beauty so expect to be batting people off with a stick as potential suitors fill your DMs with flirty messages. This won’t slow down anytime soon as the sun enters your sign and makes you even hotter than you are now (if that’s at all possible!).
FINANCE + CAREER
Don’t let the excitement of your birthday season allow you to ruin the financial progress you’ve made. Start saving for your bday festivities ASAP and opt for plans that you can actually afford. The full moon on July 21 falls in Capricorn AKA the most financially responsible sign, so tap into this energy to help you make wise money decisions.

LIFE IN GENERAL
You’re about to turn a year older and since it’s emotive Cancer Season, you’ll likely be all pensive and in your feelings for the first half of the month. Allow yourself to feel all of those feelings and analyse how far you’ve come in your relationships and where you hope to go over the next year. Then when your season hits, it’ll be time to party and embrace your new era!
VIRGO
August 23 – September 22
SEX + DATING
Have things been slow in your love life? Well not to worry, get-shit-done sign Capricorn has a full moon on July 21 so expect some action to occur around that time. Hell yeah! The main piece of advice here is to embrace your Virgo vibe and be proactive. Don’t wait for things to come to you — go ahead and make the first move! What’s the worst that can happen???
FINANCE + CAREER
If there’s any financial moves or career goals you’ve been meaning to make, the time to press play on those would be around July 20 as motivation planet Mars hits your career zone and your chances for success are at an all-time high.
LIFE IN GENERAL
Your ruling planet Mercury hits your 12th house on July 2. WTF does this mean? Well, for the most part, your intuition will be peaking so pay attention to signs from the universe and whatever you do, make sure you listen to and honour your gut instincts. When something is not right, you’ll know!
LIBRA
September 23 – October 22
SEX AND DATING
Try to attend as many social occasions as ya can this Leo Season (I’m sure you will anyway as the social sign of the zodiac). The cosmic energy will help you pull in all of the cuties over the next month. Unless of course you’re off dating right now, in which case you should still go, if nothing else than to have A+ Leo Season hangs with your faves to fill thine cup.
CAREER AND FINANCE
This month, your work life and social life will collide. You’ll be having a ball at work and vibing with your co-workers like never before. Just make sure you don’t end up doing anything during afterwork drinks that’ll make things awks for you in the workplace (whether it’s flirting with a coworker or telling everyone that the sickie you pulled the other day was a lie).
LIFE IN GENERAL
You have a rare gift for being a connecter, of sorts. Use your social prowess to matchmake among your friends and link up your besties with your other besties.
SCORPIO
October 23 – November 21
SEX + DATING
Buckle up and brace for impact as war planet Mars hits up Uranus in your relationship zone. There may be some drama on the love front (what else is new?). Accept the fact that your desires and needs may have shifted and changes may need to be made. More than anything, make sure you’re setting boundaries and sticking to the boundaries of others. If it turns out that you need to break up with someone, here’s advice on how to do it based on their star sign.
CAREER + FINANCES
As the Sun moves through your ninth house of adventure, dare to dream BIG when it comes to your career goals. Ponder the possibility of doing something completely different to what you’re doing now. I’m not saying to quit your job instantly, but start to enquire about whether a new career path/course study could be the answer for your future happiness.

November 22 – December 21

CAREER AND FINANCES
The full moon in Capricorn brings with it an upturn in your finances. Either you’ll find that you’ve saved more dollarydoos than you realised, you’ll discover an opportunity to spend/save lots of dough, or you’ll experience an unexpected uptick in cash. How you receive the influx of $$$ is not important, what is important is that you don’t blow it all instantly.
