Well, a food safety expert says it’s actually pretty gross.

Your weekly horoscope for June 30-July 6, 2024 starts off on a confusing note. Neptune, the planet of fantasy and dreams, goes retrograde in Pisces on July 2. Neptune spends nearly five months retrograde every year, so this isn’t something to be worried about. But the day that Neptune begins to “move backward” is when we will feel the cosmic shift the most intensely. You may become more lax in your boundaries or reconsider some of your dreams for the future. This isn’t the best day to make important decisions, but pay attention to your gut instincts.

On the same day, Mercury in Cancer links up with Neptune in Pisces, and conversations are more heartfelt and full of compassion. This is a beautiful day to write poetry, share your feelings with someone special, or even to practice some magic or manifestation work. Later in the day, Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Leo. Over the next few weeks, you’ll focus more on yourself and your goals.

The new moon in Cancer on July 5 will help you redefine your sense of security and safety.

Conversations today can feel healing, triggering, and transformative.

There’s a new moon in Cancer on July 5 that helps you redefine your sense of security and safety. Maybe you’re ready to move, start fresh with a family member, or redecorate.
