Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what the intense dynamic between Venus in Leo and Uranus in Taurus this week means for each star sign

We are starting off the week with a slightly intense dynamic between Venus in Leo and Uranus in Taurus. Our relationships could go through unexpected developments, where we either call it quits or jump into things too soon. Venus in Leo is flashy and passionate, Uranus in Taurus is here to test our foundation and sense of safety. There could be a part of us that just wants to express our love loudly and live in the moment, while another part questions the stability of it all. As Venus, the planet that rules love, is currently in her shadow period in preparation for her upcoming retrograde, we could use this week to begin reflecting on our relationships and expect more clues to be shown during the retrograde period in late July.

On July 3, the full moon in Capricorn brings our focus to career, work, reputation and public image. The Sea-goat is an Earth sign who knows the value of practicality and hard work. At his best, Capricorns bless the world with their gifts of consistent discipline and integrity, which are themes that we could all tap into during this full moon. It would be wise to use this time to reflect on our larger goals in life and recognise the discipline and grounded steps needed to achieve them.
