Aquarius

For once, the month’s closing act is addressed to you: the July 29 full moon lands at 6° Aquarius, your solar first house — reading your Sun sign as the first house the way monthly horoscopes do — and most of what comes before it is buildup. First-house culminations are personal. Something about how you live, look, or introduce yourself reaches full size, in front of witnesses.

The buildup runs through partnership. Jupiter is in Leo, your seventh house, and on July 20 it opposes Pluto in your own sign: a partner’s expansion pressing on who you’re becoming — the offer to merge homes, calendars, or plans, generous and a little engulfing at once. The Sun repeats the opposition on July 27, then meets Jupiter at 6° Leo on July 29, the month’s warmest day, and that one belongs to the two of you. Make the offer, or accept it — and then, under your own full moon that same evening, check that the deal still fits the person you actually are. It probably does. Say so.

Romance and side projects get the early fireworks. Mars in Gemini, your fifth house, meets Uranus — your planet — on July 4: the spontaneous date, the idea that arrives sideways, the collaboration that starts as a joke. Mars trine Pluto the next day, July 5, gives it staying power. What sparks that weekend is allowed to become serious.

The unglamorous middle matters too. The Sun squares Saturn on July 6 — your workload leaning on the errands-and-paperwork grind in your third house — and the new moon on July 14, at 22° Cancer in your sixth house, is the reset your routine has been asking for: the sleep schedule, the checkup, the calendar rebuilt around how you actually work. Mercury is retrograde in that same house until July 23, so book the appointments but expect the times to move until then. Saturn stations retrograde on July 26 in your third — the writing project or the sibling arrangement goes into review. A pause, not a cancellation.
