But this isn't a typical Cancer season—there are two eclipses and a Mercury retrograde in the mix! Your schedule is about to be turned upside down, dear water-bearer, but first your relationships get revved up thanks to Mars entering your opposite sign Leo on July 1. You might find that people are more confrontational than usual when the planet of war activates the sector of your chart that rules partnerships, but you also get a big boost in passion.The first eclipse of the month lands on July 2 in Cancer, shaking up your schedule, day job, and daily habits. Eclipses bring sudden surprises, so don't expect anything to be set in stone during this time—but a change of pace might be exactly what you need. Eclipses are all about destiny…are you on the right path? If you've been trudging into the same place of work or running the same routines that haven't been right for you, expect this eclipse in Cancer to sweep all of that away. Cancer is a sign that's all about nurturing and protection, and as wild and nonconformist as you can be, Aquarius, you do find comfort in your daily routines. Don't cling to the ones that aren't working for you—let this eclipse bring something new to your life. This is a powerful time to commit to quitting a bad habit. A shift in power takes place—harness this energy by visualizing what your best life would look like. You might not see it now, but this eclipse will put you on the path you're meant to be on, as emotionally turbulent and tiring as that may be.
