Weekly Horoscope: July 13, 2026 to July 19, 2026— The Moon Calls
As the heavens turn, the energies of life ebb and flow. We watch the patterns of the heavens to understand not only what to expect, but also how to proceed. A new moon always offers a new beginning as a door opens—but because we are still in the storm of Mercury retrograde, we may want to tread forward carefully.
The Energy Profile Of This Week
The last full week of Mercury retrograde is upon us—and soon, we will be eager to put it behind us. This Mercury retrograde phase has likely been quite stormy, as our emotions and relationships have been all over the place. We may have noticed that we are taking things more personally and that others are more defensive.
The most important focal point of the week will be the new moon in Cancer, which appears on July 14. In the week that follows it, we will be encouraged to focus on our roots, the past, and our foundations. This is an ideal time to look at our emotional stability and security. Connecting with family or turning attention to home or domestic matters are always favored.
As for specific astrological energies, we have some important ones! On the 13th, be wary of shocking news around beauty or relationships, as Venus will square Uranus. Uranus will sextile Neptune on the 15th—bringing immense opportunities for spiritual awakening on a collective scale. Uranus will trine Pluto on the 17th—offering profound opportunities to experience massive rebirth and transformation by being innovative and moving in new directions. In truth, these aspects have been building for months and will echo for months to come, so we could see a crescendo near this time. Last, Mars will sextile Saturn on the 19th, which can be used to infuse great strength, passion, and longevity into our personal or professional plans.
