This July, the skies bring some of the biggest changes we’ve seen in years. Uranus enters Gemini for the first time since 1949, shaking up the way we think, speak, and connect. Three major planets—Neptune, Saturn, and Mercury—will also turn retrograde, asking us to slow down and reflect.
It’s a month of big questions and powerful realizations. As we move through this shifting energy, the Tarot can act as a guide. It helps us understand what is ending, what is beginning, and how to stay grounded through it all.
Use this month’s Tarotscope to find insight, comfort, and direction. The messages may be subtle, but if you listen closely, they will lead you where you need to go.
