July 2025 Horoscopes Are Here — Retrograde Season Begins
July 2025 is a significant month for every astrological sign.
Design: YourTango | Photo: Kindel Media from Pexels Monthly horoscopes for July 2025 are here for each zodiac sign, revealing a transformative month ahead as several significant planets change signs, disrupting what we've come to know as the status quo. The Jupiter/Neptune/Saturn transit that currently rules the skies (along with Saturn and Neptune in Aries) will be with us through the end of the month. This energy tends to delay or slow things down and create fear, disruption, and uncertainty, but it won't be as heavy as it felt during June. However, another retrograde season begins in July, with Neptune, Mercury, and Saturn each beginning their retrograde motion this month. Neptune retrograde begins on July 4, bringing the reality check we need to get through the month with clear eyes. Saturn goes retrograde on July 13, which may throw us for a loop. But with Saturn in Aries, we'll still have the motivation to succeed — we'll just have to find some creative ways to do so. Mercury turns retrograde on July 17, giving us time to backtrack and reflect on where we are going. A retrograde of Mercury is about rethinking, redoing, and connecting with those things and people from the past.
The most significant transit in July, however, is Uranus’s entrance into Gemini on July 7. It will remain in this sign until November 9 when it returns to Taurus for one more six-month pass before moving into Gemini for the next seven years. Uranus rules technology, freedom, upheaval, explosions, aircraft, electricity, and future advancements. Gemini rules all forms of communication, thoughts, and thinking as well as travel and commerce, which will all change with Uranus in this sign. Uranus has not been comfortable in the sign of Taurus, which means the energy has been more challenging than beneficial. Luckily, the planet's energy works better in Gemini, so while we'll experience changes, they may be easier to deal with. Communication and the ability to communicate will change dramatically under this aspect, as will commerce and potentially voting and the mail. We will make huge advancements in technology, travel, communication, and new ideas, and will change the ways we communicate over time.
