Aries (Spring Equinox-approx. April 21st): Tension may be in the air when it comes to
getting along with others. Some of this might have to do with romantic relationships, but
for the most part, this will likely have to do with friends and social circles. However,
your creativity may be stronger than normal, and good luck may flow your way. There
may also be challenges in your home life, but these can be easily remedied by making
conservative choices instead of pursuing your ongoing expansion. As the month
continues, you may find that the challenges in your home life and family persist, but now
the good luck has dissipated, and the tension among social relations has increased. Now it
may bleed over to communication. It would also be wise to avoid indecisiveness,
particularly analysis paralysis.

Taurus (Approx. April 21st to approx. May 21st): September 2025 begins with potential
challenges in your love life, and your creative juices might not be flowing as well, so it
would be wise to focus on work and health. You may also find that the first two weeks
are a good time to focus on your spirituality, particularly in how you express it in your
daily life. Your home life and immediate family may be rolling along smoothly with
potential for expansion and growth. As the month continues, you may find that the
creative and romantic challenges dissipate, to be replaced with an emphasis on the money
available to you through your daily life and work routine. Your love life may be at a spot
where a long-term foundation can be laid, especially if you focus on doing what needs to
be done. For the last week of the month, it would be wise to watch your temper,
especially when you’re focused on business or at work.

Gemini (Approx. May 21st to Summer Solstice): A complex beginning greets you as the
calendar turns to September, Geminis, so it would be wise to stay sharp. There may be
challenges in the workplace, but these happen every year around this time. There may
also be issues when it comes to spirituality and emotionally charged situations, but in
contrast, your love life and creativity may both be rolling along well and smoothly. This
may include a streak of good luck as well. Your emotions may feel tense, but these will
fade over the first week. The first half of the month is also a good time to spend time with
friends and reach out when it comes to networking. As the month progresses, challenges
may persist in the workplace, your spirituality, and certain emotions, but overall, you
may feel like the air is getting lighter and things are improving. The last two weeks of the
month are a good time to focus on friends and making social inroads if necessary. This is
also a good time to watch your spending, particularly when it comes to food. Your
romantic relationships may also require some attention.

Cancer (Summer Solstice to approx. July 21st): September 2025 begins with a continued
emphasis on the home and immediate family, particularly when it comes to opportunities
for expansion and learning. There is also a strong and positive emphasis on your daily
work routine, so grab the opportunities as they arise. Your social scene may be full of
challenges, though, but considering your home life, you may discover it’s a fair tradeoff.
As the month continues, you may notice the home life stays the same, and now things are
positively firing off in your workplace. Social challenges may continue, but you are
coming into a period of long-term success if you focus and apply yourself. Your intuition
may be stronger than normal for the last two weeks, and your spirituality may be
increasing. The last two weeks are also a good time to do some deep cleaning to prepare
for the upcoming season.

Leo (Approx. July 21st to approx. August 21st): As September begins, you may feel on top
of the world, as Venus transits your sign. This indicates that good luck is on its way, and
your romantic life may also be rolling along fantastically. The first two weeks are also a
good time to reach out to friends and contacts to help achieve your goals, even if your
goals are simply to have fun. Traveling may also be particularly pleasurable. As the
month matures, the good vibes dissipate, but things do not necessarily go bad. Rather, for
the last two weeks of the month, it may be worth your while to spend more time
socializing. Watch your temper for the last two weeks, especially in the workplace, but if
you can focus that energy productively, there may be some hidden opportunities you can
seize.

Virgo (Approx. August 21st to Autumnal Equinox): Happy birthday, Virgos! This is your
month, so treat yourself. Your home life and immediate family may be rolling along
nicely and smoothly, and even though your emotions are out of sorts, this will fade
shortly as September begins. During the first two weeks, you may also find unexpected
things come up over the Internet, so it is smart to watch your online persona. As the
month progresses, you may discover your work life blossoms, and money may flow
through it to you more easily than normal. The first two weeks are also good times to
address your romantic life, bringing into being your heart’s desire. Even though it is your
birthday month and time to treat yourself, you may find it advantageous to focus on your
day job and future opportunities that are manifesting. The last two weeks of the month
are also good times to address your health, especially your diet.

Libra (Autumnal Equinox to approx. October 21st): The extra energy you have been
feeling for a few weeks will continue for the first half of the month, and this is good
because your creativity may be stronger than normal, so you have the energy to produce
excellent work. Your romantic life may also be experiencing good things, such as a streak
of good luck or gathering up the courage necessary to take it to the next level. It might
also be worth traveling, especially for leisure. As September matures, there may be more
emphasis placed on your social life and creative writing. For the whole of the month, it
would be wise to make conservative choices when it comes to your family and home. The
whole of the month also brings more personal healing, especially regarding acting on
what you know you need to do to heal.

Scorpio (Approx. October 21st to approx. November 21st): Your emotions may be stronger
than normal as September begins, but so too is your spiritual potential, if you can
navigate the many challenges present. These challenges include romance, creativity
blockages, ego clashes, and personal communication issues. The good news is that by
applying yourself in your day job, you may find you can achieve some success and lay a
solid foundation. As September continues, you may find the results of your daily work
manifest sooner rather than later, and your romantic life may also be slowly improving.
The last two weeks are also good times to focus on health, specifically dietary and sexual.
Your energy levels may be stronger than normal after the equinox, and if you direct that
energy to productive ends, you may find that financial success can be manifested.

Sagittarius (Approx. November 21st to Winter Solstice): Like its opposite sign, Gemini,
you may find the beginning of September 2025 is a complex picture that will require your
adaptability skills. Challenges may be present regarding your emotions and spirituality,
and even though you might want to speak your truth, you may find that it would work
against you. Your daily work life may be challenged too, but that is normal this time of
the year. Romance may be in the air, or perhaps a streak of good luck. It would be wise to
make money creatively during the first two weeks as well. But, as September rolls on,
you may find there’s a definite shift in the air. During the last two weeks, your work life
may be full of challenges, and money might not be flowing as smoothly as it normally
does. But, in its place, you may find this is a good time to socialize and spend time with
friends to blow off steam. If you make conservative choices during the whole month, you
may find September is not as rough as it first appeared.

Capricorn (Winter Solstice to approx. January 21st): As September 2025 begins, you may
see tension in your home and with your immediate family, so when faced with important
decisions, it would be wise to err on the side of caution. You may also note challenges
when it comes to your social circles and groups of friends. However, the tradeoff is that
your daily work life is in a spot where you can make significant progress towards your
long-term goals. The pressure of the first two weeks is all part of your healing journey, so
this is nothing new. After the equinox, you may find your work life takes center stage for
all the right reasons. Money may be flowing easily to you through it, and your enjoyment
of it may also be increased. Even though tension is still present in the home and with your
immediate family, you may be experiencing good things happening in your love life.
There may be communication issues with your friends, so when possible, treat these
relationships carefully.

Aquarius (Approx. January 21st to approx. February 21st): Optimism may be in the air as
September begins, and perhaps a trip might help your spirits, but other than these good
things, you may find tension present regarding your romantic life, money through
creative projects, and ego clashes with others. Relying on your friends can be an effective
way to navigate the challenges. As September progresses, you may notice that most of
the tension in the air dissipates, replaced by socialization and fun with friends. However,
the tension from the first half of the month has shifted to minor challenges related to short
tempers and joint projects. Inspiration may be stronger than normal, and you might find
networking pays off larger than expected. If you make some adjustments, you may find
money flows easily to you through your daily work habits.

Pisces (Approx. February 21st to Spring Equinox): Challenges may be the opening theme
of September, particularly when it comes to traveling, spirituality, emotions, and online
interactions, so it would be wise to start slow and cautious. There may also be tension in
the air regarding your daily work routine, so keep in mind the Serenity Prayer to navigate
what comes up. As the month continues, your work situation may remain challenging,
and now it starts to affect your finances. The tradeoff is that your intuition might be
stronger than normal, as are your psychic skills. In general, the last two weeks may
feel like an initiatic process. Online issues may continue to be present for the whole
of the month, but this is the long-term transit of Uranus through Gemini, so while it
hangs in the air like the sword of Damocles, it is not heavily pronounced the whole
time. September 2025 ends on a higher note than it began, but this does not necessarily
mean it will end off the charts in a positive way.

Aries (Spring Equinox-approx. April 21^st): August 2025 begins with an emphasis on the Mercury retrograde and how it can be used to your advantage in the long run. Your ruling planet, Mars, is the hidden factor, and if you get caught up in aggression and conflict, you may find that your experiences lay a foundation, for better or worse, for the next several years. The home, immediate family, and romantic relationships may be the main areas of challenges and issues. However, as the month continues, you may find things get a lot better in general, except for your ability to be a diplomat. You may find that dealing with other people tests your patience and temper. A key to remember when working with this is to recognize that these situations are challenging you to evolve to your next level of development.

Taurus (Approx. April 21^st to approx. May 21^st): Challenges are the major theme of the beginning of August 2025, and it may feel like these challenges are everywhere. A lot of them have to do with the Mercury retrograde, particularly affecting your personal relationships and how you communicate. However, one of the positive ways to work with this is to narrow your focus and roll up your sleeves and get to work. As the month continues, you may find that the challenges persist, but to compensate, your romantic life, immediate family, and home life may all be progressing smoothly. Communication challenges may still be present, as well as ego conflicts with others on how to handle things. Therefore, it would be wise to remember the Serenity Prayer and focus on what you can control.

Gemini (Approx. May 21^st to Summer Solstice): Other than irritations in the workplace, kitchen, or bathroom, you may find August 2025 begins on an easy-flowing note. Things may be running smoothly when it comes to your creative projects, children, and taking care of what comes up to be resolved. You may also find this is a good time to understand your limits and changes, and work within them. However, as the month progresses, you may find that things roll along smoothly until the last week, when challenges in the workplace and with health arise. For the last two weeks of August, you may find it is a good time to reach out to people for help when you need it. The last two weeks of August are a great time to start new creative projects and cultivate optimism. Throughout the month, you may find that interacting with your immediate family and loved ones requires a lot of small adjustments, but once these are made, things roll along smoothly.

Cancer (Summer Solstice to approx. July 21^st): Unlike other signs, you may find the month begins on a positive note, with an emphasis on emotions and spirituality. You may also notice good luck and blessings come your way through your home, immediate family, and loved ones. Prosperity and opportunities for expansion can be found around the home and through people you have known a long time if you listen to your intuition and seize opportunities when they arise. As the month progresses, you may encounter challenges related to getting along with others. Romantic relationships may also be challenged in the last two weeks of the month. If you want to move ahead with creative projects, it’s smart to make the necessary adjustments to your schedule and focus.

Leo (Approx. July 21^st to approx. August 21^st): Happy birthday, Leos! This is your month, and even though there is a Mercury retrograde in your sign, it might still feel good to treat yourself. With the Mercury retrograde, you may discover it impacts all of your life and brings your attention to what you’re doing wrong, and/or what needs to be addressed so you can make room for more blessings coming your way. Your emotions may be out of sorts around the first of the month, but this will pass quickly. As the month progresses, you may find it is an unusual month, in that as the sun moves into Virgo, strong Leo vibes continue, meaning the end of the month is a good time to continue to create, be optimistic, and have some fun to round out your birthday month!

Virgo (Approx. August 21^st to Autumnal Equinox): Hold your horses, Virgos. Even though the last couple of weeks are the beginning of your time, it might be a little delayed this year because of the Mercury retrograde. The first two weeks of August 2025 may be a typical Mercury retrograde, and additionally, there may be challenges present with your online behavior and digital face, so it would be wise to do what’s right when appropriate. The tradeoff is that good things may be happening regarding your family, home, and loved ones, and if you are astute, you can maximize opportunities that come your way. As the month matures, you may find those themes continue, but around the last week or so, your attention may be turned towards the workplace and health, specifically how you adapt to changing circumstances and communicate with the people you have to.

Libra (Autumnal Equinox to approx. October 21^st): Challenges in the home life and with your immediate loved ones may permeate the first two weeks of August 2025, but other than that, you may also see that the Mercury retrograde is a good time to wrap up creative projects and address emotional issues having to do with romantic relationships. This is also a good time to utilize digital tools to reach the people you need to, furthering your goals. As the month continues, you may notice that the same challenges persist, but now the emphasis shifts to moving ahead with creative projects and being proactive when it comes to reaching out to people who can help you achieve your goals. The last week of the month may alleviate some of the challenges related to your close friends and loved ones. The new moon, which occurs towards the end of the month, is an ideal time for new beginnings, particularly for creative projects, and is also beneficial for your greatest growth and well-being.

Scorpio (Approx. October 21^st to approx. November 21^st): As August 2025 begins, you may find the current Mercury retrograde is quite challenging, specifically when it comes to dealing with the egos and delusions of others. You may also find it challenging to wrap up creative projects, and romance may also be a point of contention. However, in stark contrast to this, you may find yourself in a position to create a long-standing foundation with your family and immediate loved ones. You may also find opportunities for advancement and expansion in your home. The first two weeks are also a good time to do some cleaning and health changes. As the month continues, communication challenges persist, but the emphasis now shifts to troubleshooting and future-proofing plans. The last week of the month may bring challenges regarding loved ones, so it would be wise not to rest on your laurels.

*For all signs* Mercury directs on August 12^th at 19 degrees Leo! Hooray!

Sagittarius (Approx. November 21^st to Winter Solstice): As August 2025 begins, you may find that other than problems in your daily work routine and health, everything is rolling along smoothly, and that includes the Mercury retrograde. Tension may exist when it comes to communicating with others and dealing with the Internet, but this is only the beginning of Uranus moving through Gemini, so this is diffused energy and will play out over years. As the month progresses, the challenges in the workplace may fade, giving way to opportunities for forward momentum if you are proactive and reach out to the people who can help you the most. It is also worth noting that the last two weeks of August put you in a position to start new creative projects, and romance may be in the air. A streak of good luck may also visit you around the new moon at the end of the month.

Capricorn (Winter Solstice to approx. January 21^st): August 2025 begins with tension in the home life and immediate loved ones, but other than that, things might be flowing nicely and smoothly, in stark contrast to others and the aforementioned Mercury retrograde. Challenges from the Saturn and Neptune conjunction in Aries are still present, but these will be playing out over the next few years rather than over a few weeks, meaning the energy will be weaker overall. During the first two weeks of August, it is a good time to focus on work, your career, and health. As the month continues, you may notice that the closer you get to September, the more the tension with loved ones fades. There may be challenges in getting along with people and making compromises, but if you meet people halfway, these issues can be mitigated. One way to navigate these challenges throughout the month is to maintain faith and remember that the only constant is change.

Aquarius (Approx. January 21^st to approx. February 21^st): Of all the signs to be impacted by the Mercury retrograde, yours is the one that may feel it most during the first two weeks of August 2025. Besides the tension from the retrograde, there may also be emotional issues to deal with, and many of these may stem from long-standing emotional wounds that have been repressed. As the month matures, you may find the intensity eases up quite a bit, but tension through communication and when it comes to having fun may continue to be present. The good news is that the last two weeks of the month are a good time to reach out to friends who can help. You may also find it wise to avoid indecisiveness. All of these pieces represent various perspectives and facets of your overall transformation, which has begun with Pluto moving into your sign.

Pisces (Approx. February 21^st to Spring Equinox): Like other signs, August 2025 may begin with challenges in the air, but unlike others, these won’t necessarily have to do with the Mercury retrograde. Rather, the challenges present are regarding your work life, health, and how you live your daily existence. In contrast, numerous opportunities exist for positive growth and expansion in your immediate family, close friendships, and romantic relationships. Challenges may also arise in your online persona and communication, and one way to address this is by improving your discernment skills and knowing when to disengage. As the month progresses, the annual challenges that come with the sun moving into Virgo will be delayed this year, giving you a chance to catch your breath. The workplace challenges and health issues may also clear up before September arrives.

Horoscopes for the month of July 2025

Aries (Spring Equinox-approx. April 21^st): Extra energy may be in the air as July 2025 begins, but this isn’t necessarily a good thing, as challenges with the home life and immediate family may be all too common. This may be coupled with some life areas being unclear and full of lessons. However, with creative conversations, you may discover opportunities for good fortune for the first two weeks of the month. As the month continues, the same challenges related to the home and immediate family may continue, but now they are less intense, and there may be a sense of optimism in the air. Communicating with people online may produce unexpected results, and the Mercury retrograde in Leo allows you to make the appropriate changes in the digital realm. Money may flow to you through the people you know, and your romantic life may benefit from some light-hearted gaiety.

Taurus (Approx. April 21^st to approx. May 21^st): July 2025 may begin with many challenges and issues concerning your transformation in the face of a quickly changing social landscape. Focusing on work and health are two things you can do to build a foundation for the future. You may find your homelife and immediate family rolling along nicely and well at the moment, and there may be unexpected blessings coming your way with one or both of those areas. Communication may also be a temporary issue, as you may speak more than listen. As the month continues, the challenges continue, particularly those concerning communication, as the Mercury retrograde may impact you more than other signs. The good news for the month is that Uranus is now out of your sign, so watch for things to quiet down.

Gemini (Approx. May 21^st to Summer Solstice): Get ready, Geminis! Uranus enters your sign this month and will be there until 2033, so the rollercoaster is about to begin and will be in effect for a while. Uranus in Gemini is a good combination overall, but it will bring unexpected situations and events, so if you have strong Gemini in your chart, you may find your ability to adapt and grow is tested. July 2025 begins with challenges in your daily workplace and maybe your diet, so it would be wise to be cautious with both. However, the first two weeks of the month are a good time to brainstorm, philosophize, and figure out where to go. As the month continues, the Mercury retrograde in Leo may surely bring up problems, but the overall experience might be smoother to handle than expected. Romance and money may come your way in the latter half of the month, so be ready to grab the opportunities when they come up.

Cancer (Summer Solstice to approx. July 21^st): Happy birthday month, Cancers! Treat yourself as only you see best. With the sun and Jupiter traveling through your sign, you may find prosperity and learning can be had with your immediate family and home, and the emphasis for the first two weeks is on work. However, lessons may come quickly and unexpectedly, so don’t party too hard. As the month progresses, you may notice that Mercury retrograde may present minor annoyances more than life-changing situations, and if you adapt, you may be able to navigate the situations easily. The last two weeks of the month may require a lot of minor adjustments, and if you make them, you may find that unexpected good things can be produced. Your intuition may also be sharper than normal, so you can rely on it for guidance when necessary.

Leo (Approx. July 21^st to approx. August 21^st): July 2025 begins with a lot of emphasis on personal and mass communication, but tension may be present when adapting to the changing social landscape. Challenges with romance and money are on their way out, clearing the path for good things to easily flow to you in those life areas in the latter half of the month. As the month continues and Uranus enters Gemini, it is worth noting that you may find unexpected good things come your way through your conversation skills and ability to network. You may also find your creativity gets a second wind, and if you have artistic skills, now is the time to refine them. But, the Mercury retrograde in your sign will bring a period of major clean-up, particularly relating to getting humble and seeing how your words impact others, both for good and ill.

Virgo (Approx. August 21^st to Autumnal Equinox): July 2025 begins with more energy in the air than normal, so if you direct it carefully, you may find good things come your way in your daily work life, if you are proactive when it comes to seizing the professional opportunities that come your way. The sun and Jupiter conjunction in Cancer may bring good things to you through people you have known a long time, as well as your house, so it would be wise to make both of these priorities, knowing that whatever comes up may be resolved easily and positively. As the month progresses, things may dramatically change once Uranus enters Gemini and Mercury retrograde occurs. Uranus will be in Gemini for several years and will have a challenging interaction with your heavy Virgo placements. These challenges will be related to personal and mass communication, especially on the Internet and your digital persona. The Mercury retrograde in Leo will probably be more fiery than normal, but will require a lot of small adjustments rather than large ones.

Libra (Autumnal Equinox to approx. October 21^st): Tension in general may be the theme of the beginning of July 2025, and one of the best ways to navigate these changes is through your spirituality and faith. Your immediate family and house may be areas of challenges, and lessons brought to your door will be more fiery than normal, but may also not be clear. The good news is that your creativity may be stronger than normal, and for the first two weeks, so will your personal communication skills. As the month continues, your immediate family and house may continue to be sources of issues, but the Mercury retrograde may bring as many opportunities as challenges. Uranus entering into Gemini may be a good time to expand in the digital realm, and with Pluto in Aquarius, you may find this is a good time to make changes when it comes to personal philosophies and social circles. The latter part of July 2025 may also be a good time to learn a new subject.

Scorpio (Approx. October 21^st to approx. November 21^st): Communication challenges and being at odds with society may be the two prevalent themes at the beginning of July 2025, but the good news is that the communication challenges will fade for a bit in the second and third weeks of the month. Otherwise, you may find the first two weeks are good for laying a foundation for long-term growth regarding your house and long-time loved ones. The entire month is good for spiritual initiation and new, positive, emotional connections. Focusing on work and health for the first two weeks would also be wise. As July progresses, things get more interesting for a few reasons. First, Uranus’ entry into Gemini means it will alleviate the pressure from your digital life. Secondly, the Mercury retrograde in Leo may bring with it more challenges than it does for other signs. Focusing on work and your immediate family may be positive themes for the entire month, and the challenges you sense coming are annual issues around this time, so you enter into August focused on managing the Mercury retrograde.

Sagittarius (Approx. November 21^st to Winter Solstice): July 2025 may be a complex month full of contradictions, so let’s break it down. The first half of the month may start with challenges in the workplace and regarding your health, and the wise persona adapts when appropriate. Tension may be present in daily life, money, and romance, which are precursors to the near future. However, this is also a good time to increase your creative output and maintain optimism. You may also find this is a good time to communicate with those who feed your spirit. As the month progresses, there might still be challenges in your daily work life and with your health, and now there might be tension in the air regarding love and money, particularly when these themes involve other people. Uranus moving into Gemini will create a tense opposition to your Sagittarius placements until 2033, which will have to do with the duality between Gemini and Sagittarius. Namely, being singular in focus vs. varied, and how you are in daily life vs. how you are in the digital realm. The Mercury retrograde may be a good time to heal through reviewing what has come to pass, and if you are active enough, you may be able to progress towards your long-term goals.

Capricorn (Winter Solstice to approx. January 21^st): Other than tension regarding the family and house, you may find that July 2025 begins with many opportunities for long-term plans regarding work, health, money, and living comfortably. If you’re proactive in your daily life, you may find you can seize opportunities as they come up. However, challenges that have to do with your approach to things may also be present, namely, whether you are strong-willed or stubborn and resistant to change. As the month continues, it may feel like more of the same, and unlike other signs, the Mercury retrograde may not be as impactful as it is for them. Uranus’ entry into Gemini may also be a good thing overall, as it moves out of the earth sign Taurus, relieving you from unexpected daily occurrences that have been too common while Uranus was in Taurus. In short, you may be one of the signs least impacted by July’s changes.

Aquarius (Approx. January 21^st to approx. February 21^st): Early May 2025 may be full of challenging communication issues and some unexpected daily events, but other than that, you may be fortunate enough to avoid many of the issues other signs face. The first two weeks of the month are a good time to rest and heal psychologically, and in general, it might feel like you are waiting for something to happen. This will come towards the middle of the month when one of your ruling planets, Uranus, enters Gemini. This ingress may bring unexpected opportunities to advance your current transformative process. You may also find the last two weeks of July a good time to indulge in your social circles and hang out with friends. But the Mercury retrograde in Leo may bring a host of challenges to your door, specifically regarding technology and dealing with things online. You may also discover that during the Mercury retrograde, it is wise to avoid starting new creative projects and instead focus on the ones you have in motion that need to be completed. Communication issues may also be present with the Mercury retrograde, but many will have to do with ego conflicts.

Pisces (Approx. February 21^st to Spring Equinox): Like Sagittarius, July 2025 may start complex. Your romantic life, daily cash flow, and digital interactions may all be full of challenges, but your home and immediate family may be areas of blessings and opportunities for expansion. Your daily work life may also be full of tension at the moment, but this has been going on for a bit and will continue for several weeks. As July matures, you can expect more of the same, and that is the positive note: things don’t get worse-they stay the same. This underscores the fact that July is a good time to focus on your spirituality and emotional development, and you can see that the issue is that if you go too deep down that rabbit hole, your daily life and professional world may be negatively impacted. However, your intuition and psychic skills will be stronger than normal, so you may have to rely on invisible guidance, taking you out of your comfort zone. Uranus moving through Gemini will provide challenges and opportunities until 2033, many of which will have to do with the Internet and mass communication. The potential is there for growth, but only if you handle the challenges well.

*FOR ALL SIGNS: Uranus moves into Gemini on July 7^th, and other than a brief retrograde back into Taurus later this year, it will be in Gemini until 2033. This may hit people with strong mutable energy (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) in their charts the hardest, bringing unexpected events through digital channels and personal communication.

*FOR ALL SIGNS: Mercury retrogrades from July 16^th through August 12^th, moving from fifteen degrees Leo to four degrees. This will impact people with strong fixed sign activity (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) the hardest, and will mostly address themes of creativity, the ego, and personality clashes.

Horoscopes for the month of June 2025

Aries (Spring Equinox-approx. April 21^st): June 2025 begins with more energy than normal, and you may find good fortune visits you, especially when it comes to games of chance and creative projects. This is a good time to share your creative projects with others or brainstorm where you go next. Opportunities to heal, particularly emotional and romantic wounds, will also be present in the first two weeks of the month. However, you may also sense something coming in the near future, but now is not the time, and what you are sensing will take months to play out. As the month progresses, you may find challenges that have to do with the immediate family and home. This is due to Jupiter moving into Cancer. If you make the appropriate adjustments, you may find these same challenges can be blessings in disguise. Communication challenges may also be present, particularly with those you are closest to. 

Taurus (Approx. April 21^st to approx. May 21^st): Unlike fire signs, you may find June 2025 opens with challenges, particularly regarding stubbornness, priorities, and hobbies. However, once the middle of June arrives, you may find things shift dramatically. Once Jupiter enters into Cancer and is soon joined by the sun and Mercury’s presence, you may find good things come your way regarding your immediate family and physical house. Long-time friends may also be sources of enjoyment and pleasure. Love and money may also come your way rather easily the more the month goes on, and these may flow smoothly enough to the degree that they bring physical pleasure and enjoyment. The theme of the last two weeks of the month may bring with them the theme of hard work and putting fun secondary to taking care of business.

Gemini (Approx. May 21^st to Summer Solstice): Happy birthday Geminis! This is your month, and the way it begins, you may find it is a good time to spend with friends. Not only could this be relaxing, but those conversations may lead to opportunities for learning and prosperity. The first two weeks are also a good time to get creative or enjoy a good luck streak in games of chance. In the first two weeks, romance and money may also flow easily to you. As the month continues, you may notice many of these topics change, but not to bad; rather to a non-factor. Work may call your attention the last two weeks of the month, which may be due to problems there, so if these are avoided, they will only worsen later. In general, this is a good month for new beginnings and counting the blessings you have.

Cancer (Summer Solstice to approx. July 21^st): Even though June is considered Gemini month, it may feel like it’s your month the further we get into it, but the first two weeks are slightly different. June 2025 begins with challenges regarding your romantic life, sense of being, and karma coming back around. These challenges highlight areas for healing in your life. It would also be wise to pay extra attention to things in general because daydreaming may work against you. As the month progresses, though, many of these challenges will clear up and be replaced with good vibes regarding romance, your home life, and your close friends. You may also find expansion opportunities in the physical home, whether refinancing, improvements, or something else. Jupiter enters your sign this month, meaning that good things are coming your way over the next several months.

Leo (Approx. July 21^st to approx. August 21^st): As June 2025 begins, you may find optimism and good fortune visit you, so it would be wise to be open to these things. Romance might also be stronger than normal. The easiest way to acquire these good things is through your friends and conversations with those who can help you achieve your goals. This is also a good time to focus on psychological and spiritual healing. As the month progresses, many of these good things get tainted with astrological changes. The closer you get to solstice, the more you might find challenges related to romance, money, and health. You may have to make a lot of mini-adjustments to harmonize your career and family, but if you take these steps, things will click into place in the long term.

Virgo (Approx. August 21^st to Autumnal Equinox): Personal communication challenges may be present as June begins, but these usually occur around this time, so this is nothing new but still worth noting. Turning your attention to daily work and those routines would be wise, as it would help you catch blessings as they unexpectedly come your way. As we get closer to solstice, the more things change for the better. Romance and money may increase, and professionally, you may find you are in a good position to create long-term physical plane foundation building and to take care of your health. Even though you might be excited to get to work, your home life may be rolling along so smoothly that you must readjust what you’re doing and why. Essentially, what is going on with your family and home life will be rolling along smoothly to the degree that it is comfortable. As Jupiter moves through Cancer, it may bring prosperity opportunities through your home and people you have known for a long time.

Libra (Autumnal Equinox to approx. October 21^st): Your emotions may be tense and powerful as June 2025 begins, so it would be wise to take things slow and gentle as they occur. You may also find challenges concerning health, romance, and cash-in-hand, which may be present, too, so you can see the bigger picture: challenges are all around. The good news is that through your friends, you might find a support structure to help. As the month progresses, the challenges with money and romance clear up, but they have been replaced with challenges at home that have to do with your immediate family. Communication challenges, particularly tough conversations to have with loved ones, may also be things you struggle with as the month ends. As Jupiter moves into and through Cancer, it will unearth things that need to be healed and changed, which will play out over several months.

Scorpio (Approx. October 21^st to approx. November 21^st): Mars is a major player for the first two weeks of the month, so it would be wise to keep your temper in check and apply your energy in constructive ways rather than destructive. June 2025 begins with the possibility of accidents, short tempers, and conflict, so it would be wise to breathe deeply before reacting. In some ways, once solstice arrives, things get better, but in other ways, challenges continue. Once the middle of the month arrives, you may find your home life and immediate family to bring with them opportunities for prosperity, learning, and expansion. However, tension may exist in your romantic life regarding money or both. You may also find your communication style is most effective when you are compassionate and sincere. A good place to direct your energy is in the workplace because, after the solstice, it is a good time to get engaged in your daily work life more aggressively.

Sagittarius (Approx. November 21^st to Winter Solstice): June 2025 begins with an emphasis on romantic healing, or healing related to love, so assessing your priorities ahead of time would be wise. Tension may be present regarding personal communication, prosperity, and learning, but a lot of this happens every year during this time, and what doesn’t is fast-moving, so this is nothing new. Optimism may be in the air, and your energy levels may be higher than normal. As the month continues, the earlier tension dissipates, but now, there are challenges in your daily work routine that require adjustments. The tension from earlier in the month changes to a non-issue, freeing up a lot of your energy for other projects, namely laying a foundation for where you choose to build in the future.

Capricorn (Winter Solstice to approx. January 21^st): Unlike most other signs, June 2025 begins with very little activity related to your sign, and the present activity is diffused and will play out over an extended period. This activity is Neptune and Saturn in Aries, and both planets move slowly, so you will have to deal with these things for months and years. The closer we get to solstice, the more you may find good, positive opportunities that come your way, particularly regarding money, love, and health, if you put in the work. Being proactive in your career will be rewarding in the long run, even though you may not see immediate results. The last two weeks of the month may come with tension in your family life and having to do with your home, so it would be wise to make conservative decisions when it comes to those areas. Jupiter entering Cancer, the opposite sign of Capricorn, will bring tension and challenges that will probably pull at the heartstrings.

Aquarius (Approx. January 21^st to approx. February 21^st): Your temper may be short, and you may be accident-prone as June begins, but other than these, the month starts with a lot of opportunities for new connections or spending time with your friends to blow off steam. Unexpected windfalls may come your way, and your romantic life may get a little more fiery than normal. Saturn and Neptune in Aries, which will play out for a number of years, will bring with them easy-flowing results, even though you may have to pay a price. As the month progresses, challenges concerning health, love, and money in hand may become more prominent and regular. Of all the signs discussed, you tend toward the gentler side of the spectrum.

Pisces (Approx. February 21^st to Spring Equinox): Things continue to be challenging, Pisces, but most of these challenges happen every year around this time, meaning that June 2025 kind of begins as a non-factor. The challenges of the first two weeks have to do with personal communication and distractions, which means they are also short-lived. Money may still be tight, but this will change when Jupiter enters Cancer. The closer you get to solstice, the more you might find things greatly improve. Romance, love, and money manifest easily, and an opportunity is present to improve your health. However, tension may also be present in your daily work routine, but this will be short-lived and can fade quickly. To summarize, the last two to three weeks of June may be full of good things and blessings, which begin to make up for all of the recent challenges over the last eighteen months or so.

Jupiter enters Cancer June 9^th, and this will play out for about a year. It joins two other outer planets, Saturn and Neptune, in making significant ingresses this year. Social and group changes will be more dynamic the closer we get to the end of the calendar year. Check your chart (or I can check) for personal impact.
