Weekly Horoscope: July 20, 2026 to July 26, 2026— Turning Fire Into Celestial Gold

For weeks now, we have seen our lives spinning off the tracks. However, we’ve also sensed a new vibration of laughter building within our hearts, as one area of our lives is illuminated in a whole new way. This is a beginning period of newfound magic and joy—so embrace it.

The Energy Profile Of This Week

As we march into the final full week of the month, we will certainly be feeling the whiplash of the universe. Most notably, Mercury retrograde is coming to an end—and the “storm” always occurs in the days that surround it, freezing in the sky and changing direction. This occurs officially on July 23, but we may feel a bit disoriented all week. 

Also, Saturn, the planet of life lessons, will also turn retrograde on July 26—and as I’ve mentioned before, anytime a major outer planet changes direction, something in our life slows down, pivots, and moves in an opposite path. This could be someone in our lives, a situation, a project, or even something within us that we are re-evaluating. Saturn is crawling backwards in the same skies as Neptune, so there could be similar themes being re-addressed, even though they operate very differently as energies. Neptune is more mystical, while Saturn is more about facts and reality. 

Leo season arrives this week, too, starting on July 22. Happy Birthday to all of our vibrant Leos!

As for cosmic weather this week, we have another mighty celestial week—one that may change our lives and echo across the human collective for generations to come. Jupiter will trine Neptune on July 20, offering great expansion of spiritual vision and hope, but oppose Pluto, causing us to re-evaluate how we transform our lives and utilize resources and power. Jupiter will sextile Uranus on July 2, invigorating us with the eagerness to truly open our horizons in vast and wondrous ways. Neptune will sextile Pluto on July 25, which encourages us to transform our beliefs of reality and fantasy. These mighty aspects have been felt building for months and will continue to do so for months ahead. We also have the True Node entering Aquarius on July 26, but I will address this in a future article.
