On July 24, the sextile between Mercury in Cancer and Venus in Virgo perfects, a harmonious aspect that began to be felt on July 22 and will maintain its influence until July 25.
It is a combination that promotes honest conversations, empathy, and the ability to express what may have remained silent for weeks. Moreover, it arrives just as Mercury goes back into direct motion, symbolizing an unlocking of communication after the retrograde period.
In the emotional realm, this transit encourages sending that overdue message, clarifying misunderstandings, or resuming a dialogue that seemed impossible. Long-distance relationships may feel particularly favored, as communication flows more naturally and it becomes easier to reduce the emotional barriers imposed by physical separation.
It is also a favorable aspect for those wondering whether it's worth talking to an ex-partner again. It does not guarantee reconciliations, but it does create a conducive environment for listening, seeking explanations, offering apologies, or closing a chapter with maturity and respect. In some cases, a honest conversation can rekindle a connection; in others, it will provide the necessary peace to move on.
Mercury represents words and understanding, while Venus governs love, harmony, and affection. When both planets collaborate through a sextile, emotions find the right words and feelings are expressed with greater delicacy. It is a good time to set aside pride, open the heart, and remember that sometimes a conversation can change the course of a relationship.
Aries
There is a energy in you today that doesn't come from your mouth; it comes from within, from that place where you keep what you value most. Venus is tapping you on the shoulder, telling you to pause for a moment, that not everything gets resolved through rushing. Someone you miss might appear in some way today—a call, a message, a photo that arrives unexpectedly—and it will come right when you needed it the most. Don't close yourself off to that tenderness. In terms of finances, today is not a day for big moves, but it is a day to carefully review what you have at hand, because a small detail can change the outcome of something you have been working on for a while. Stay focused with patience, as that is your most powerful tool today. Love is also asking you to let your guard down a little.
Lucky number: 7 · Compatibility: Leo · Advice: Rushing pulls you away from what you need most today. Breathe and stay.
Taurus
This Friday arrives like a long embrace, one of those that have no rush. Venus, your planet, is in its element today, and you can feel it in your body: there is a calm that is not resignation, but confidence. If you have been waiting for news from a loved one, today the silence may break in a beautiful way. Home, even if it’s the one you carry within you when you are far from the one you were born in, smells like something familiar today. In your work or in what you are resolving day to day, the consistency you have put forth will start to show signs that it was worth it. Not everything is visible at once, but this waxing moon is telling you that you are doing well. Take care of your body today; take a moment to eat well, rest, and treat yourself with the same kindness you give to others. You deserve that and more.
Lucky number: 22 · Compatibility: Capricorn · Advice: What you build with your hands and your heart cannot be taken down by time.
Gemini
Your tongue is sharp as always, but today Venus asks you to use it to say beautiful things. There are words you've kept hidden that someone needs to hear, not tomorrow, but today. Communication is your gift, and this Friday provides the perfect stage to use it well, to build bridges, to say 'I love you' without all the fuss. In the economic realm, an idea or a conversation may arise that opens a door you hadn't noticed. Don't let it pass by while you're distracted. Your mind needs order today more than speed, so before you start ten things, finish one. The waxing moon is urging you to fine-tune, to focus, and not to scatter your energy. Spiritually, something is seeking you out; take a moment to be still and allow yourself to be found.
Lucky number: 45 · Compatibility: Libra · Advice: Speak your feelings before the moment passes you by.
Cancer
Today is your day more than anyone else's, Cancer. Venus and the energy of Friday are upon you like summer light, and you, who dwell deeply in emotions, will feel this with all the intensity that defines you. Family is very present today, even if they are far away, even if there are miles or seas in between, love knows no distances and will demonstrate this to you today. Something may arrive that makes you feel that the heartbeats of your loved ones resonate in sync with yours, even if they are not in the same room. Financially, this is not a time for great risks, but it is a moment to protect what you have with wisdom and care. Your intuition is keen today, more than usual, so if something tells you yes, heed it. And if something tells you no, listen to that as well.

Summer is yours, Leo, and today it's evident. There's a light within you that people sense before you speak a single word, and Venus is adding an extra shine to that flame. Today, you can be the center of attention effortlessly, simply by being yourself. In love, someone is watching you with more attention than you realize, and if you’re already in a relationship, today is a great day to remind your partner why they fell in love with you. The generosity you carry in your heart today can shine without fear. In terms of finances, there's an opportunity that seems small but has more depth than it appears. Don’t underestimate it. Your health is calling for movement, for sweating, for feeling your body alive. The heat today is not an obstacle; it’s an invitation.
Lucky number: 1 · Compatibility: Aries · Advice: Shine without asking for permission, that's what you were born to do.
Virgo
You, who always pays attention to the details, today the waxing moon validates your perspective: refining things is important, but there also comes a moment when you need to let go and trust. Venus is urging you to balance that analytical side of yourself with the part that simply feels. At work or in what you are building, there is a step you have postponed because you want it to be perfect: today is the day to take it, because perfection is sometimes just the name we give to fear. In relationships, someone close to you needs you to listen without offering advice, just with your presence. You can provide that effortlessly when you set your mind to it. Your health is urging you to treat yourself with the same compassion you would extend to a friend. You are so hard on yourself that sometimes you forget to be your own ally as well.
Lucky number: 38 · Compatibility: Taurus · Advice: Good things do not always arrive polished. Sometimes they arrive just in time.
Libra
Venus is taking care of you like a child today, Libra, and you will feel it in every interaction you have. The harmony you seek so much is not a luxury, it is your nature, and this Friday the universe returns it to you with interest. If you’ve had any friction with a loved one, today there is a genuine openness to resolve it elegantly and without anyone losing their dignity. In love, the scales are balanced, and that is a sign that something good is coming together. Economically, an agreement or a conversation that has been pending for a while could arrive, and today the environment is ripe to close it successfully. Don’t rush, but don’t let it slip away either. Your aesthetic intuition is also sharp today; if you need to make a decision where taste matters, trust your first instinctive impression.
Lucky Number: 29 · Compatibility: Gemini · Advice: The peace you seek outside begins with the peace you build within.
Scorpio
There is something moving in the depths of your life today, Scorpio, something you feel even if you can't name it yet. Venus is working on those layers that no one else sees, softening what was hard, opening what was closed. If you've been carrying something alone, today someone or something might appear to offer you a genuine breath of fresh air. Don't reject it out of pride. In love, the intensity that defines you today has a channel: use it to connect, not to control. There is someone who genuinely wants to be close to you, and they deserve to see you without so much armor. Economically, your instinct for spotting opportunities is very active, so trust it. Emotional health is the most important thing you need to take care of today: what remains unsaid stays inside and weighs you down.
Lucky number: 54 · Compatibility: Cancer · Advice: Letting go is not losing. Sometimes it’s the only way to win.
Sagittarius
The horizon always calls to you, Sagittarius, and today it calls with the voice of Venus, which is the sweetest of all. Something new is beginning to emerge on your path, not abruptly, but like the dawn, gradually, with colors that are initially hard to see and then fill everything. In love, someone who came from afar, or who is still far away, holds a special place in your heart today. Do not take it for granted. The distance can be the space where affection grows stronger, you decide. In financial matters, an idea you've been developing for some time is ready to come to fruition. The faith you have in yourself, which is considerable, today has real support. Move forward with enthusiasm but also keep your feet on the ground, as the long journey is taken one step at a time.
Lucky number: 17 · Compatibility: Aries · Advice: Those who move forward with an open heart always arrive.
Capricorn
You, who know the value of everything, today Venus gifts you something that cannot be bought: a feeling that your efforts are worthwhile. The final results haven't arrived yet; the moon is still waxing, but today you can see more clearly that the path you are on is the right one. In your work or in what you are building with such dedication, recognition is approaching, whether it's from someone you appreciate or simply from yourself, that moment when you look in the mirror and know you have done well. In love, today is a good day to lower that guard that protects you but sometimes also isolates you. Someone wants to show you unconditional affection, and you deserve to receive it. Family, whether near or far, is your root, and today those roots are strong.
Lucky number: 33 · Compatibility: Taurus · Advice: Those who work with love never work in vain.
Aquarium
Today you feel that the world should be different, as always, but Venus reminds you that change starts in the closest relationships. Before fixing what is far away, look at what you have next to you. There is someone in your life who needs you to truly see them today, not as part of a project or an idea, but as a person who matters to you. Economically, your ability to see what others do not can give you a real advantage this week, but it needs to be grounded in something concrete. Ideas are valuable when they turn into action. The waxing moon is asking you for patience, to refine before you leap, as timing is part of talent. Spiritually, there is a sign you have been misinterpreting for days. Today it may make more sense.
Lucky number: 61 · Compatibility: Libra · Advice: Take care of what you have close first. That's where everything else begins.
Pisces
Pisces, you who feel everything before it happens, today you will sense love in the air before it manifests in something visible. Venus is very comfortable this Friday, and you are one of those who makes the most of it because you live with an open heart in a way that few dare to. Today, something that truly excites you may arrive, a piece of news, a presence, a coincidence that is not by chance. Welcome it with gratitude. In terms of finances, your intuition is your best tool, but today it needs the support of solid data. Don't just rely on your gut feeling; verify. In health, take care of your sleep and rest, as your nervous system is sensitive, and summer can sometimes drain you more than you realize. Spirituality is very close to you today, more than usual. There is protection, there is guidance, there is something that watches over you.
Lucky number: 9 · Compatibility: Scorpio · Advice: What the heart truly feels, time always confirms.
