Your July 2026 Horoscope for Virgo

Mercury will be retrograde nearly all month, until July 23, so it might be wise to go back to colleagues you enjoyed working with but haven’t seen in some time—Mercury retrograde is perfect for reactivating past relationships.

Mercury retrograde can be frustrating, and we all feel it, but you may feel it more because you are ruled by Mercury. The more deliberate you are in all your actions, however, the better. For example, be sure not to leave your cell phone at home so you won’t have to go back to get it. Be careful not to leave your sunglasses at the bank or the dry cleaners. When you leave a taxi or an airplane, check to see you have your wallet, phone, and computer or iPad with you.

Being careful and deliberate in actions will help to cut down on the maddening effects of Mercury retrograde. Avoid signing contracts, starting new ventures, or buying electronic items until Mercury turns direct after July 23. (Mercury rules the moving parts in machines and also electronic chips.) Give a space of as many days as you can muster from July 23 to the date you take action.

You are poised to progress professionally more this month, now that Mars has come back to Gemini after a two-year absence.
