Capricorn
Dec 22 – Jan 19
On July 6 the Sun squares Saturn — your planet — and the month states its theme early. The Sun sits in Cancer, your solar seventh house of partnership, reading your Sun sign as the first house the way monthly horoscopes do; Saturn sits in Aries, your fourth of home and family. Someone close wants more from you than the household currently has to spare, or the household wants more than the relationship does. Neither side is wrong. Set aside the week for it.
The repair kit arrives mid-month. The new moon on July 14, at 22° Cancer, is a clean start in that same partnership house — the honest conversation, the second chance, the contract renewed on better terms. Mercury has been retrograde there all month and stations direct on July 23, so give anything negotiated before that date one more read after it. Old agreements resurfacing in early July are material for the new moon, not verdicts.
Work runs hot and then sorts itself out. Mars conjunct Uranus on July 4, in your sixth house of routines, is the schedule flipped without notice — the outage, the coverage gap, the reorganized week. Mars sextile Saturn on July 19 is the fix that holds; lock the new routine in then.
Money is the late-month story, on both sides of the ledger. Jupiter opposes Pluto on July 20 across your eighth and second houses — what you share versus what is yours — and the Sun repeats the question on July 27. Then July 29 stacks the deck: the Sun meets Jupiter at 6° Leo in your eighth house, the month’s brightest day, good for the loan approval, the settlement, the partner’s good news — while the full moon at 6° Aquarius lands in your second. Send the invoice that morning.
Saturn itself stations retrograde on July 26 in your fourth house. The home project or family arrangement you committed to this spring goes into review through year’s end — keep the load-bearing parts, renegotiate the rest.
