Let’s make this community even more vibrant and supportive. Now, let’s explore what the stars have in store for you this month.

Introduction: The Grounding Period You’ve Been Waiting For

At last, a moment to get grounded, Gemini! There’s been a lot of change and activity for you in the past six weeks, and you could use a more measured pace to integrate it all. This month, you finally get that. On May 20, expansive Jupiter began a yearlong visit to Gemini, kicking off a new 12-year cycle and catalyzing major momentum! For every zodiac sign, 2024 is split almost perfectly down the middle in two acts, with the first half being wildly different from the second. Your agile sign may feel this the most acutely. As July begins, some parts of your life might already look totally different than they did earlier this year, even downright unrecognizable.

Sun in Cancer: A Time for Centering and Simplifying

With the Sun in Cancer and your stabilizing second house until July 22, you have a chance to center yourself and simplify. Lean into the nurturing energy of the Crab and reconnect with your body through movement, whether that’s running, simple stretching, or receiving a healing treatment like acupuncture. Revel in the luxury of “less” instead of overwhelming yourself with more, more, more.

Since the second house rules your financial resources, this would be an excellent time to apply that “less-is-best” perspective to your physical space. Is a buildup of papers, paraphernalia, or nostalgic items cluttering your personal cave? Raid your wardrobe for any minimally worn items to sell at the local consignment shop. If you’re more digitally inclined, as so many Geminis are, try a snap-and-upload option like ThredUp. Extra cash AND a clean space to help you center? Yes, please!

Career and Life Direction: Soul-Searching Time

On an intimate level, the rest of the summer could stir up a major soul-searching moment about your career and life direction. Take the time to ponder before you charge in. Hazy Neptune makes its annual retrograde through Pisces and your tenth house of purpose from July 2 to December 7. With Neptune joining Saturn and Pluto in the retrograde brigade, you’ll do well to step back and evaluate which projects and social networks energize you and which leave you drained. Ditch or delegate anything that zaps your vitality. With Jupiter in Gemini, invest in things that are aligned with your top personal priorities.

If you've been engaged in a passive-aggressive power struggle with a client or managerial figure, consider just dropping it—or shifting your attention elsewhere. Rarely does anyone win these kinds of battles, Gemini. The tenth house rules parental figures (fathers in particular). Are there some family-of-origin issues playing out?

While Neptune is known to create confusion and illusions, its retrograde can actually roll BACK the fog, helping you see things more clearly. If you have a palm-to-forehead realization that you’re reenacting a childhood dynamic with the dominating IT person or your unreliable nanny, don’t be hard on yourself. Armed with this newfound insight, you can make an important change.

Escapist Habits and Creativity: A Time for Mindfulness

Take stock of any escapist habits you’ve lapsed into as well, Gem. Are you doomscrolling through newsfeeds during meetings or getting swept up in a multi-episode binge to cope with anxiety? Neptune’s reversal is an ideal time to cut back on your screen time and practice more mindfulness.

Neptune retrograde periods can be inspired times to nurture your creativity. Pick up a passion project you sidelined. Could those audio notes you send your friends be the start of a serialized podcast or a bodice-ripping romance? Go ahead and lose yourself in another chapter of your favorite book, then pour your imagination into your own fantasy series or personal vision board. Never underestimate the power of your journal to help you work through any intuitive downloads. Let the divine inspiration flow!

Financial Opportunities: Cancer New Moon

In need of a cash infusion? The July 5 Cancer new moon could serve up a new job, pay raise, or moneymaking opportunity. As la luna activates your finance zone, your mind is on practical matters. Don’t expect an overnight change, though. New moons kick off events that will unfold over the upcoming six months. You might simply realize that you’re ready for a new path—and see clearly how small steps and daily actions can lead to profit.

At this confidence-boosting new moon, choose a couple of meaningful projects and chip away at them bit by bit. Curb the urge to dabble in a million things at once, Gemini, even if you're interested in all of them! Focus on one or two key initiatives and do them thoroughly, without cutting corners.

Mid-Month Liberation: Mars Meets Uranus

By the time assertive Mars meets up with liberating Uranus in Taurus on July 15, you’ll be ready to let go of any lingering fears, shyness, or insecurity that could be holding you back. Taurus rules your twelfth house of the subconscious, and the Mars-Uranus meetup could bring buried feelings churning to the surface.

This mid-month metaphysical moment harks back to August 2022, the last time Mars and Uranus connected in this closure-focused zone. Today is their last-ever meetup here in our lifetime. It’s a significant release point for outmoded habits, emotional attachments, and limiting beliefs. What have you been holding onto for dear life, Gemini? Let it go—or don’t—but know that clinging to the past is futile.

By unearthing your unconscious patterns as well as hidden talents and gifts, the planet of action (Mars) and the planet of change (Uranus) are here to help you make sense of your true desires and burgeoning need for independence. Pay attention to your dreams around this time as you could be tapping into deep wells of divine guidance.

Freedom and Breakthroughs: Mars Enters Gemini

And then, freedom arrives! On July 20, Mars will move into Gemini, heating up your assertive, independent first house until September 4. You’ll be itching to break out of hermit mode and capitalize on this newfound energy source, especially since Mars immediately forms a harmonious 120-degree trine to puissant Pluto the day after. Bring on the breakthroughs!

Mars in Gemini deepens your curiosity while Pluto in Aquarius and your purposeful ninth house magnetizes your soul’s true desires. Questions about your career path might arise: Is your current job getting in the way of your happiness? Are your efforts woefully underappreciated at work? You might feel the pull toward richer, greener pastures, and this Mars-Pluto meetup could put you in the path of influential players!

This empowering Mars-Pluto trine also happens to serve as the backdrop for the July 21 Capricorn full moon—the second of summer’s rare back-to-back pair. This is the follow-up to exciting opportunities that came your way at the June 21 Capricorn full moon. Get ready, Gemini!

Full Moon Illumination: Windfalls and Intimacy

The Capricorn full moon will illuminate your eighth house of windfalls and intimacy, shining a light on a potential investment, property sale, relationship change, or grand gesture of permanence. This merging moment could make an alliance official (or officially unofficial), either in work or romance. Gemini, as the sign of the Twins, you know the power of a dynamic duo. Joining forces could help you make those “impossible” dreams into a reality, the ones that feel too daunting to undertake alone.

Social Surge: Sun Enters Leo

This momentum continues when the Sun catwalks into Leo on July 22, setting off a social month. Gemini is the natural ruler of the zodiac's third house, so you're truly in the zone with el Sol, Venus, and Mercury in this chatty placement for the rest of July.

Leo season could inspire a “frienaissance” as your social calendar heats up and people you haven’t seen in a while start sending invites. Reach out to an important kindred spirit or two. Whether that’s picking up where an old college friendship left off or repairing a complicated dynamic with a former bestie, this communicative four-week cycle can get you back on the same page.

Even better? Fiery Mars in Gemini is also heating up your extracurricular calendar through September 4. Finally! You get to RSVP "yes" to all those summer fiestas you've been dutifully skipping. A gentle reminder, though, to heed the less-is-more mantra you began the month with and not overdo it.

Navigating Challenges: Sun Opposes Pluto

Leo season doesn’t get off without a hitch, alas. On July 23, the Sun makes its annual opposition to calculating Pluto, driving up egos and power struggles. If you have plans for a face-to-face talk or an important meeting, things could go awry. As the Sun and Pluto face off across your communication axis, honesty might NOT be the best policy. People will be defensive and secretive, and Pluto can taint the truth serum with sinister intentions.

Someone may read into every word, or YOU might be inordinately suspicious. Yikes! Cutting commentary from a sibling or a friend could be taken as fighting words. But before you dress them down and eat their dignity for dessert, take a deep breath. It's not worth burning the bridge
