July Horoscopes

New month, new reasons for everything.

Words by Mystic Thing

Fresh out of the shower, I’m listening to Frou Frou, smelling like rosemary and watermelons, trying to decipher what the fuck June was. It’s all I’ve been thinking about, journaling like a madman. Yet it’s not until I sit down to write one of these horoscopes that it all settles in.

With everything going on with the planets (Mercury Gatorade set to happen mid-July, Saturn still hanging around Aries, and Earth being, well, Earth), the sun feels like the only hope for me these days. As she looms over Cancer and inevitably Leo, I can’t help but feel like July will be about planting the right seeds.

What does it look like? What does that even mean? What exactly is discernment? What emotion turns what parts of my body into what colours? What is my soul trying to tell me?

Do I kind of suck at understanding her?

This is the month to track your dreams, analyse them by the fire if you can, and talk to the moon. And by August you’ll see your discoveries reflected onto your external world. You just might trust yourself again. There will be glimpses of the future here and there. Take notes when you find yourself speechless.

Check your rising sign and come back for your sun sign when you… feel like it. And I guess check your Mercury sign if you care about the Renegade. But I personally don’t like to because I imagine Mercury as this really shy thing who feels self-conscious when he pretends to go backwards. Everyone, look away.
