As the sun shines in Leo, you find yourself focused on your relationships—with lovers, business partners, and even frenemies.

This month is especially juicy as your ruling planet Uranus frequently connects with other planets over the next few weeks, starting with Venus on August 2! This will bring big shake-ups at home, in your private life, and in your relationships—but these are much-needed changes as you're itching for freedom. What used to be important to you isn't anymore, and with that, many of your relationships—romantic or otherwise—will undergo a transformation sparked by the clash between Venus and Uranus.
