The heat is on this summer, and thanks to a series of potent eclipses, July will be a fast-paced month to remember. Eclipses bring supercharged moon energy, the effects of which reverberate for the next six months. The solar eclipse in Cancer on July 12th is an excellent time to ground yourself in healing, while July 27th brings an emotionally intense lunar eclipse in Aquarius. Mercury joins the fray at the end of the July, so a slow, mindful approach will help you navigate any emotional rollercoasters you may find yourself riding. Self-care is important this month, so listen to your body and heart for best results.It’s full speed ahead for business this month, Aries, and you’re likely to have quite a full calendar. While this is wonderful news, life isn’t just about work! Stay healthy and make time for your relationships this month by cooking a weekly homemade meal with your loved ones. Since time is of the essence, consider signing up for a healthy meal kit service, and get cooking!  It’s all about love for Taurus this month! Whether your single or attached, relationships will be strengthened and romantic encounters are highlighted. There’s nothing sexier than confidence, so consider boosting your esteem and your physical health this month by enrolling in a dance class, such as salsa, hip-hop, or even pole dancing. Bring your partner along for the adventure for extra bonus points!Focus is key for the month of July, dear Gemini. This is an excellent time period to review, reassess and maybe even make some moves, but it’s imperative to stay disciplined and realistic. This is the perfect month for Geminis to join (or start!) a weekly accountability group. Whether your goal is better health, letting go of bad habits, or growing your business, checking in with a caring and like-minded group of friends can help keep you motivated to make some real and long-lasting changes. Change is in the air, dear Cancer, and the month ahead could see long-term projects coming to fruition. To keep yourself running at top performance, add some healthy snack and drink options to your usual daily routine. Ditch the potato chips and try corn chips and guacamole, or substitute dates for candy bars. Instead of a sugary energy drink, try drinking sparkling lemon water. You’ll be surprised how much more energy you’ll have, and your digestive tract will thank you.Hold steady dear Leo! This is likely to be a fast-paced month, and you need to be careful to take it all in stride and avoid burnout. To keep you running at high gear, ditch the coffee and energy drinks and try natural performance boosting Reishi mushroom tea. A longtime staple in Chinese medicine, Reishi improves cognitive performance, detoxifies the liver, and even helps protect against some types of cancer.Virgos have it easy this month compared to most other signs, so this might just be the perfect opportunity for you to kick back for some well-deserved rest and relaxation. This isn’t always easy for diligent and perfectionistic Virgo, but vacationing is actually part of living a healthy lifestyle. Taking time off improves cardiovascular health and overall work performance, so cut yourself some slack and book a relaxing trip, Virgo!Libra can expect a busy and opportunity-filled July, but stress levels could send even the calmest of these natives into a tizzy. To keep anger and tension at bay, try a Skullcap tincture or tea. This herb reduces inflammation, calms nervous energy, and can even help slow the spread of tumorous cancer cells. Be sure to monitor how much skullcap you ingest, as this herb can cause nausea and other side effects in large doses.Go with the flow this month, Scorpio, and don’t be afraid to invest in projects and ideas that may pay off in the future. It’s even beneficial for you to invest in your own physical health this month, so get outside and enjoy the water during these warm summer months! Swimming is an excellent cardiovascular workout, perfect for toning and strengthening the entire body.Tap into your intuition this month for best results, Sagittarius. Listen to subtle clues within your body, such as a feeling in your gut or consider writing down your dreams for insights into your subconscious. While it’s still hard to explain how intuitive knowing works, intuition is an important tool for self-care. Your body may be able to identify a potential opportunity, address a physical imbalance or help you make an important quick decision. Listen to those subtle clues this month and act accordingly.Relationships are highlighted for Capricorns this month, and it’s a wonderful time to deepen your connections with loved ones and family. One simple and healthy way to connect with loved ones is through the power of touch. Give extra hugs this month! Physical touch releases oxytocin, a hormone and neurotransmitter that alleviates depression and helps us form long-lasting bonds.This is a huge month for your work-life, dear Aquarius, and your being urged to begin new projects and set new goals for yourself. Whether you're a student, barista, or 9-to-5er, practice mindfulness to take advantage of the opportunities that may present themselves in your professional sphere. Mindfulness meditation alleviates depression and anxiety, improving both mental and physical health and well being. Living in the present moment will also remind you of how much you have to be grateful for.Kick back, slow down, and meditate on what truly matters dear Pisces. Mercury’s retrograde motion might cloud your judgment, so take a slow and steady approach to your work and business this month. Consider picking up a new journal, and record your thoughts, dreams, motivations, and goals. Journaling reduces stress and can help reveal aspects of yourself that often go unnoticed during the day to day hustle of life.
