July 2022 Horoscope: Taurus

Chat 'em up, Taurus! You're in social spirits this July as the Sun visits Cancer until July 22, heating up your third house of communication and local action. With energizer Mars blazing through Taurus from July 5 to August 20, (baby) you’re a firework this month. Your own neighborhood could be a hotbed of parties and celebrations that double as networking opportunities. Make the most of those Independence Day celebrations because you’ll be feeling pretty free yourself!

The July 13 Capricorn full supermoon is another liberating day as this lunar lift sweeps through your ninth house of growth, adventure and risk-taking. If you’re planning summer travel, this could be an optimal date. A budding indie business venture could take flight. The ninth house also rules learning, so you could be asked to teach or speak about what you know—or you might get the urge to sign up for a workshop yourself.

Things get decidedly more domestic starting July 22, when the Sun settles down into Leo and your foundational fourth house. It’s a great time to visit family, connect with your roots and spend quality time at home. Your personal life will take center stage now, especially at the July 28 Leo new moon.

While you’re swinging in the hammock or basking in the sun, take time to contemplate your big-picture plans. Several of the slow-moving outer planets (Saturn, Neptune and Pluto) are making their annual retrogrades this summer. Jupiter will join the retrograde brigade on July 28, giving you a few months to map out some important next moves, including a life chapter that could be coming to a close.

The month ends with equal dynamism as trailblazing Uranus and the karmic north node make a rare connection in YOUR sign on July 31. Ready to activate your destiny, Bull? With Mars hovering super-close, things could happen fast. Keep your wits about you as you’re also likely to be reactive and a little accident-prone with all this sharp energy swirling. Slow down and get centered if things start moving too fast.

July 2022: Monthly Horoscope Overview

It might be summer, but July is no vacation. June gave us a much needed reprieve from the tumult of the last few years, but the astrology of July puts us right back in the ring for another round. That said, though there is a fair share of frustration and difficulty this month, there are also some dreamy and romantic moments to keep us going through the hard times.

Mars and Mercury both change signs on the 5th, setting things up to immediately feel very different than how they did last month. Mars leaves bold Aries for stubborn Taurus while Mercury leaves chatty Gemini to join the sun in sensitive Cancer. Under these influences, our communications become more nuanced and intuitive while our actions slow down. Mars in Taurus only puts energy into what’s absolutely necessary. Try not to push too hard against something unwilling to budge.
