Your Weekly Horoscope Kicks Off With Intense & Unpredictable Emotions

Your horoscope for the week of July 14 to 20 kicks off with a dark swirl of emotions, but it will ultimately inspire you to fight for what matters to you and heal what needs healing. Your sensitivities are bound to be triggered, and while you can’t control how you feel, you can control how you react.

The week kicks off with the moon in Scorpio, which can cause the energy to become passionate, intense, and even anxiety-inducing. After all, the moon is technically in its “fall” when in Scorpio. And on July 14, the Scorpio moon will square off with Pluto retrograde and Venus in Leo, which could cause desires to feel unmet and concerns to feel unheard. There may be a disconnect between everyone’s wants, needs, and hidden motivations.

With powerhouse Mars immediately joining forces with unpredictable Uranus in Taurus on July 15, unexpected breakthroughs could catapult you forward or force you to start from scratch. These initial changes could be difficult to process at first, what with the Scorpio moon opposing this Mars-Uranus conjunction on July 16. Feelings could get hurt—especially if you’re a Taurus, Leo Scorpio, or Aquarius—so let’s all be extra considerate of how our actions affect others.

A moment of peace and pleasure arrives by July 17, when the adventurous Sagittarius moon forms a harmonious trine with Venus and Mercury in Leo. And as the Cancer sun forms a sextile to Uranus in Taurus on July 18, you may finally begin to make sense of what has come and gone, inspiring you to move forward. However, you may feel like your vulnerabilities are being irritated later on that day, as the Sag moon will have an uncomfortable brush with disorienting Neptune, making hard not to take things personally.
