While Venus, the planet of love's departure from your relationship sector on 5th July is later in the year than is normally the case, her return and departure each year is an ordinary event. Held back by a retrograde phase and having returned after the Sun had moved through, this gave Venus a chance to build on from the relationship housekeeping that takes place when the solar spotlight is on your relationships. In her final days, Venus will always be working to give your heart a voice and a say in what you want from your relationships. This year, with the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment and especially commitment to your relationships in Scorpio, a balance between your own and your relationship needs has been even more important. Meanwhile, a given is that when Venus or any other planet over the last six years leaves your relationship sector, Uranus will be there to keep the momentum and the focus on your relationships going. Except just two days later Uranus will leave your relationship sector, leaving you with no planets here for the first time since he returned in 2019. Over the last eight months every major planet has changed position, something that has seen an unprecedented amount of change, with Uranus' departure on 7th July the last of those major shifts, at least when it comes to dramatic change. A retrograde turn will see Uranus back in for a few months, but when he leaves again in April 2026, it will be another eight decades before he returns. While listening to your heart is important during Venus' final days, until Uranus leaves on 7th July, it is about listening to the planet that for the last six years has quietly worked to keep things on a real and authentic path. Once Venus and Uranus are gone, it is the Moon's monthly visits that will keep things on track, with its first visit from 18th July to 20th July a valuable chance to check in. Meanwhile, the most romantically charged days of the month will be when the Moon moves through your romantic sector from 14th July to 16th July. A friendly aspect to the Sun and Jupiter in an adventurous part of your chart will bring the spirit of romance and adventure together.
