Cancer
Jun 21 – Jul 22
Your year restarts on July 14. The new moon lands at 22° Cancer that morning — your solar first house, reading your Sun sign as the first house the way monthly horoscopes do — and it is the cleanest reset the calendar offers you. One caveat: Mercury is retrograde in your sign until July 23, so treat the weeks around the new moon as revision rather than debut. Rewrite the bio, rebook the appointment, repair the friendship. The launch keeps better after the 23rd.
July 6 is the day to keep your temper filed. The Sun in your sign squares Saturn in Aries, your tenth house of career — the deadline that ignores your birthday month, the boss who wants it anyway. Meet the obligation without renegotiating your whole job on the spot; Saturn stations retrograde on July 26, and the pressure that felt permanent goes into review through fall.
Mars spends the month in Gemini, your twelfth house — backstage. Its meeting with Uranus on July 4 can register as restlessness with no visible cause, or a sudden need to vanish for a day. That is not a crisis; it is a scheduling instruction. Book the actual rest. The quiet work pays anyway: Mars sextiles Saturn on July 19, and something finished privately earns credit publicly.
Then the ledger turns friendly. The Sun enters Leo and your second house of income on July 22 and meets Jupiter there on July 29 — the single brightest money day of your year. Send the invoice. Have the raise conversation. Name the number without apologizing for it. The same day’s full moon in Aquarius falls in your eighth house of shared finances, so a joint matter — the loan, the reimbursement, the split — comes to a head at the same time. Settle it on the 29th, while the light is good.
