Your Horoscope for the Week Ahead

Your weekly horoscope is here. The outer planets may orbit at a snail’s pace, but their influence is potent. With a bevy of slow-moving planets in retrograde this summer, it’s a perfect time for reflection—a yin phase instead of constant yang action. One of these planets is Saturn, who, like a governess who wants the best for you, is on her annual leave. You may feel adrift or unsure of your commitments, so just know you can unbutton a little. Take a moment to consider your options, resources, goals, and the path to get there. Embrace the summer to relax, recharge your happiness, and open yourself to new information, connections, and potential developments in your field or network.

Read on to discover your weekly horoscope and what’s in store for your sign during the week of July 14 through July 20, 2024.

Aries

Your biggest flex is instant ignition, but you can loosen the buckle on longer-term goals while Saturn is in retrograde over the summer. Through November 15, it winds its way backward in your zone of dreams, the collective unconscious, and ancestry. While reviewing, there could be a few déjà vu moments as something rings familiar but you can’t quite put a finger on it. That’s because this zone is so subliminal and drenched in the fog of non-ordinary waking consciousness. Your relationship to this inner part or connection (or simply better sleep) is undergoing a stabilization process and perhaps a professional edge if your work is arts, mystic, or subconscious-based (like an ancestral medicine facilitator). If you’ve dreamed of taking your muse or musings in a professional direction or want to develop in these areas, do your research and tweaking over this period and take it seriously for success.

Taurus

Reflect on your social circle, groups, and peers while Saturn is retrograde. In restructuring mode, your social connections will benefit from a plan. Perhaps take a leadership or organizational role within a group, establish a membership or a formal arrangement with friends or interested parties, and pool resources. That could be to start an enterprise, buy a property together, and share a house to pay a mortgage rather than a landlord, or start a mystic or artistic exploration circle. Since sensitive Neptune is also rewinding in this zone, there’s plenty to look back on, assess, and plan for the next leg. Nostalgia over old friendships or groups and trends is certain, and old friends are likely to pop up too. Enjoy memory lane and take the opportunity to update those connections and see what else they link you to as they’re acting as connectors. Identify what direction you would like to go in and take action from November 15. What new influences would you like in your life? Where would you meet them? Go there!
