We’re finally hitting a summer stride and the abundant energy of the season is in full bloom. And the July 2024 Tarot card reading and horoscope for each zodiac sign is helping everyone process the first half of the year as they transition into the next—and enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Astrologically, we’re kicking off the month in Cancer season, which tunes our hearts into a more compassionate and tender frequency. The luminaries come together in this cardinal water sign’s realm on July 5 for a gorgeous new moon, heightening emotional and energetic sensitivities. The Cancerian vibes reign supreme until July 22, but both fleet-footed Mercury and relationship-oriented Venus enter glitzy Leo early in the month. As they do, they’ll activate intensity-loving Pluto, so some subterranean thoughts, secrets, and desires may need to be processed before you can move forward.
Tension rises mid-month, as hot-headed Mars collides with shock-artist Uranus on July 15. You may have the urge to do something wild and unexpected, and perhaps you should! But avoid being too reckless or impulsive, as under these cosmic conditions, things can easily hit chaos mode. A few days later, Mars enters quick-thinking Gemini, giving us lots of motivation to manifest our ideas. The summer’s second full moon in Capricorn hits on July 21, so get your grind in gear. Propel your 2024 goals forward or forever hold your peace.
The sun makes its grand entrance into glitzy Leo on July 22, pushing self-expression and authenticity to the top of the priority list. Remember, there’s room for everyone in the spotlight, so there’s no need to try to dim anyone else’s light to make yours shine brighter. The month wraps up with Mercury entering orderly earth sign Virgo, so start digging into those details.
Your July 2024 Tarot card reading for each zodiac sign
As we transition from one half of the year to the next, it’s important to make time for reflection so that you map out your future actions accordingly. Your monthly Tarot horoscope can help to nudge you in the right direction. Here are the you should focus on throughout July 2024, based on a Tarot card pull for your sun sign, moon sign, and rising sign:
Aries: TheWorld
The month of July officially heralds the second half of 2024, and this meaningful midpoint is the perfect time to reflect on everything you’ve accomplished over the past six months. The World is the last card of the Tarot’s Major Arcana, so its energy is about completion, wholeness, and integrating all the lessons learned from your recent accomplishments. What cycles have you recently wrapped up in your life, or what larger-scale endeavors are drawing closer to a conclusion? Use the productive full moon on July 21 to bring long-term goals to fruition—because you’ve got the world at your fingertips. Read your full July monthly horoscope here.
Taurus: 4 of Swords
You know the power in taking your time, so don’t give into the pressure to rush this month. Instead, step back and reflect on where you’re at before diving into anything new. The Four of Swords is all about taking a break to get in touch with yourself and meditate on how you’d like to proceed in any given situation. You’ve got a lot of cosmic activity hitting your homey and domestic fourth house in July—especially once Leo season starts—so take things slow and embrace some quiet time at home. You’ll feel so much clearer about your next moves if you give yourself space to process. Read your full July monthly horoscope here.
Gemini: 6 of Swords
As you enter the second half of 2024, consider what situations, beliefs, or relationships you might need to leave behind. Because ready or not, things are shifting, and you’re being ushered into a journey—although you may not be able to see exactly what that is yet. The Six of Swords generally finds you after a period of difficulty, but you’re being pulled out of the past and pushed toward a new destination. Change is never easy, but your mutable energy can help you navigate what comes next. Plus, once motivating Mars hits your sign on July 20, you’ll have the steel and stamina needed to face the unknown. Read your full July monthly horoscope here.

The High Priestess is the ultimate card of divine femininity, and it’s a reminder that most of the answers you’re currently seeking actually already reside inside of you—you just need to know how to tap into this sacred well of innate knowledge. The new moon in your sign on July 5 is the perfect time to connect with your spiritual side and listen to your inner wisdom, so do a special moon ritual if you feel inspired. But most of all, trust your gut this month, because your intuition is guiding you to exactly where you need to be. Read your full July monthly horoscope here.

If you catch yourself falling into an anxiety spiral or obsessing over worst case scenarios, try to get your nerves in check.

As the zodiac’s fixed water sign, you’ve got an incredibly deep emotional capacity—and the Queen of Cups wants you to fully embody that emotionally empowered energy this month. Once Leo season starts, the sun will start lighting up your house of ambition and public image, putting your authority and leadership skills on full display. But instead of putting up armor and hardening your heart, now is a time to lead with softness. There is incredible strength in vulnerability, and your willingness to connect with other people’s feelings (as well as your own) will inspire everyone who crosses your path.Read your full July monthly horoscope here.
Sagittarius: Wheel of Fortune
Good vibes are on your side this month, Sagittarius, so it’s important to tap into your free-spirited and mutable sensibilities as you embrace life’s inevitable shifts. The Wheel Of Fortune is always turning, and this card reminds us that nothing lasts forever. Your difficult circ*mstances aren’t permanent, and your luck can change when you least expect it.

Capricorn: 9 of Pentacles
You work hard, Capricorn, and you should spend July playing hard, too.

The full moon in your sign on July 21 is the perfect time to indulge in every earthly delight your heart desires, so treat yourself to something special. Splurge on an opulent purchase, like a spa treatment or designer item, or simply let your hedonistic side out to play in the moonlight. Pleasure is yours for the taking.

If certain endeavors have proven impossible to make progress on or you’re continually meeting resistance as you try to pursue certain paths, you may want to shift your perspective and stop trying to fight the universe.
