4 July

Venus meets Uranus in Taurus
Neptune stations retrograde in Aries

Venus meets Uranus and the ground shifts. Relationships, money and emotional comfort zones all feel different. Some things fall away. Others click into place without warning.

Scent pairing

• Venus — for emotional ease

• Taurus — for grounding and stability

• Energy mist — for mental clarity under pressure

5 July

Venus enters Gemini

A lighter energy moves in. Venus in Gemini is playful, thoughtful and emotionally curious. It asks for space to think, to flirt, to switch it up.

Let your mind lead without losing touch with your heart.

• Clarity diffuser — to keep thoughts sharp and clear

7 July

Uranus enters Gemini for the next eight years

This is not just a transit. It is the beginning of a long shift in how we connect, communicate and learn.

Over the next eight years, Uranus in Gemini will change the way we think and speak. Expect innovation. Expect disruption. Most of all, expect new ways of expressing who you are.
