Your July 2026 Horoscope for Aquarius
by Susan MillerMercury is currently retrograde in Cancer, a trend that started June 29 and will continue until July 23. Mercury is in your sixth house of tasks and work-a-day projects, as well as health matters. It’s logical that with Mercury retrograde having you looking back, you would consider returning to a project you had put aside earlier due to lack of time or money. This would be the perfect time to dust it off and have another look at it. You will have plenty of time—Mercury stays retrograde for three and a half weeks and, as said, will turn direct (out of retrograde) on July 23.
By July 4 or so you’ll be feeling refreshed and renewed (assuming you’ve taken time to rest). Happily, Mars, the planet that the ancient astrologers called the “timekeeper of the zodiac,” will be lighting your fifth house, known to set off the spark of new love. Mars went into Gemini (your sweet spot fifth house) on June 28 and will stay in Gemini and your house of bewitching romance until August 11.
I will add a special note here: The period from now to August 11 will also favor matters related to pregnancy, birth, and the tender care of children. Additionally, Mars in this fifth house will be stimulating your creativity and help you turn out some of your best imaginative work (assuming you are working on an artistic project).
The full moon on July 29 will also be the Luckiest Day of the Year. Join forces where you want a future association to be profitable, fair, and, in terms of romance, loving.
