Weekly Horoscope: July 14-July 20, Expect the Unexpected

A wild week lies ahead!

Mars, our red planet of passion, will leave behind the vast fields of Taurus to venture into the high skies of Gemini.

But first, Mars will unite with Uranus on July 15. This will bring a whirlwind of surprises, intensity and a deep desire for freedom and rebellion — so expect the unexpected! Mars will then link with Neptune on July 20, giving us tremendous fire to pursue our desires, dreams and goals.

The energy all week is perfect for fighting for something you believe in or uniting with someone on a deep level in body, sex and spirit. Expect the July 18 to be packed with surprises, too!

We are also hungry to pursue our heart’s desires with Venus, our planet of pleasure, continuing to roam the golden halls of Leo until Aug. 4. This is one of the best periods in the entire year for singles to mix and mingle.

Someone who lights your heart and loins aflame is out there! Line up suitors and you could soon find you’re not only having adventures together but open to falling in love.

Read on for what this week could have in store for you, according to your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 21 to April 19)

Embrace your heart’s desires more deeply than ever before, Aries! You are in a golden period for romance, regardless if single or attached.

If you are looking for love, be sure to get on the hunt now and embrace your warrior spirit to chase down whoever catches your attention. In truth, you could soon find that someone truly special has crossed your path. Sex, passion, laughter, and rapturous love could all be on the menu.

You can use this energy vibrantly if coupled up, too! Use it to reignite your spark just like the first days you fell in love. The time has come to live in the moment!

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)

Laughter and pleasure are smiling upon you now, Taurus.

You are likely to notice how there is more joy and harmony at home, in your domestic life or with family. If you’ve had any challenges with one of your kindred, now is an opportune time to smooth out the friction and remember why your connection is truly special.

On a different note, throwing gatherings for friends and family now would do particularly well, likely helping you forge magnificent memories. They could be some of your favorites in all of 2024!

Last to mention, if you’d like to redecorate or look for beautiful items for your living space, you could be quite in luck. Go shopping!

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

You’re always a wordsmith, Gemini, able to captivate anyone and enchant crowds with your words and ideas.

This is especially true now, as your communication will seem more poetic, persuasive and lively than usual. Consider your most important ideas and if you need to pitch, everyone will likely be more open to you at this time.

On a different note, travel — especially short-distance travel or even playing tourist in your town — could fan the flames of joy and romance for you. Consider planning a quick trip with your friends or sweetheart and you’ll find adventure around every corner.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)

You’re one of the most nurturing and giving people ever, Cancer, energy that is further amplified for you now.

You could find that you’re attracting beautiful possessions, more income or other lucrative opportunities that are leaving you feeling a bit more flush. On the opposite end, though, you could be more focused on giving to those who you care about. (Note that by giving, you receive!)

Not only will you attract beautiful karma now, but you will make the world around you a more joyous place.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)

The universe is smiling so wonderfully upon you now, Leo.

You are in one of the most fantastic periods in the entire year for love, beauty, laughter, pleasure and expression. However, the key to harnessing it all is to make all of them a top priority.

Regardless of whether you’re single or attached, make romance and relationships a focus and you will see them grow. You’re more magnetic and attractive than ever, so use it to your advantage in every single way possible!

“Treat yourself” needs to be the motto! Update your look, buy some new clothes, do a skincare routine — and if you’re looking for cosmetic surgery, go for it!

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)

You don’t tend to be the most over-the-top when it comes to grand gestures of love, Virgo. You are often more focused on how you can make love, affection and romance a regular part of your routine through consistency.

Interestingly, though, right now you could be more focused on solitude rather than connecting with others. Reflect on your love life and relationships and how you have built them in the past year.

If you need to talk with someone about something that happened to heal and move forward, you’re in a good period to do so. By knowing where you’ve been, you’re better able to assess where you’re headed!

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)

Being a social butterfly is second nature to you, Libra! You love to mix, mingle and spread your little light everywhere!

You’re going to notice an uptick in social invites at this time, as well as more people eager to get your opinion on everything. Laughter with friends and acquaintances will echo like the song of the summer for you. Consider hosting or attending some events if you can.

On a different note, if single, you should have more luck in the dating arena, especially through a matchmaker or online dating. Even if you’ve sworn off the apps, you could still hit the jackpot!

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)

You’re likely noticing more attention being thrust upon you as of late, Scorpio. Luckily, this trend is going to continue! Applause, awards, recognition or public approval could all be coming your way.

If you’d like to launch a campaign, gain support for a product or project or apply for a better job, all of these could be crowned with victory for you. Advancements may be made now, whether it’s in business or romance. Go get ‘em!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)

Adventure is calling your name and you’re ready for it as always, Sagittarius. In truth, there are a few ways that you’ll be seeing an uptick in pleasure and good fortune.

First, if you’re catching flights (and feelings!), you are set to have one of the most fantastic and memorable trips in quite some time. Head out long-distance with friends or a sweetheart.

If single, romance could ignite when you’re out and about. Also, consider dating outside of your normal “type.” Someone exotic or who has a different background, upbringing, philosophy on life or place of origin could interest you in ways you never even imagined!

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)

Intimacy will be sweet like honey now, Capricorn.

In truth, couples will like this energy a bit more than singles. If in a relationship, regardless of how long, you could find that there’s an easier rapport between you at this time, especially when it comes to trust, vulnerability, sex and sensuality.

On a different note, you could even see growth around wealth and assets. Singles should use this cosmic flow to really get deep and personal with themselves as they reflect on what they truly need from their next partner when they have one.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)

The stars are aligned for so much laughter, pleasure and harmony in your relationships, Aquarius.

You are in one of the most spectacular periods to find affinity with someone of significance, whether that’s in forging a promise, pitching an idea, asking a favor or negotiating where you stand.

If coupled up, you’ll notice that you’re able to truly see eye-to-eye, regardless if this is in business or love. Singles must put themselves out there significantly as they search for someone special. (A winning match, particularly someone with long-term potential, could be on the hunt for you!)

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20)

Life is moving along with a much sweeter tune for you, Pisces. You may even notice that things are just flowing better so you can achieve a better work and life balance.

Your work life and routines should be smoother, including relationships with coworkers or clients. If you’re looking to pick up more projects or look for another job, harness the cosmic flow. You could attract new employment or money easily at this time.

On a different note, when it comes to romance, now is a time to make sure that you’re making it a priority. Remember, romance isn’t just going to fall into your lap. You must make it an action and schedule it into your calendar, even when you’re busy!
