Ahead, you’ll find all the star signs’ horoscopes for July 24 2023. Read on for your full forecast.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

While Mars in Virgo means you’re busy, today’s restless focus can encourage you to drop your plans and find more exciting outlets for your energy. You might prefer to spend time with friends, and yet even this could fail to please unless you can engage in new experiences. You may be tempted to shop, but if you do be mindful, as spending impulsively could lead to regrets, Aries.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

A get-together or other event could be good for your soul, Taurus. The chance to chat and the topics discussed may gift you with several ideas of your own. But you’ll also draw great comfort from chatting freely without being judged. Plus, you’ll be motivated to try out new recipes or decorating tips, and even if they’re a learning curve, you’ll have so much fun.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

As inquisitive Mercury angles towards Uranus, you may find it hard to trust your feelings. Equally, you might wonder if logic alone is enough to help you with a key decision. Trying to work things out could result in a racing mind and a sense you’re overthinking things. And yet if you can get absorbed in something you enjoy or go for a walk, the answer may come to you.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Dreaming about something is not enough, as under the current star map you’ll be keen to own it. Desires can be stronger than usual, and holding back might not be an option. Even the thought of spending a lot of money may not deter you if the urge to have and hold is strong. But you can also exert a magnetic attraction, and if you make your needs known someone might gift it to you.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Inquisitive Mercury in your sign forges a tricky tie with disruptive Uranus in your sector of responsibility. Although you may have key tasks prioritised, getting on with them might not be easy. Boredom with your routine could see you doing almost anything except those things that are vital. Finish them, and you can look forward to the rest of the day with a clear conscience.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

There seems to be a lot going on behind the scenes, with a line-up in a quiet and ethereal zone. Are you trying to suppress a desire for something? If so, your efforts may be futile. Until you do something about it, you could feel this inner restlessness that makes it difficult to focus on anything else. And yet this might mask a deeper need that you’ve yet to discover, Virgo.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Watch out for a slip of the tongue that can mean you give something away that might embarrass you. You may not even realise what you’ve said until you see the expression on someone’s face. If this should happen, then the Moon in your tactful sign might help you to smooth this over. But if you want them to get the message, then there’s no need to apologize.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

If you’re after instant results, then you could feel it’s not worth taking up an opportunity if the outcome is a long time coming. It may well be though, Scorpio. You might have to be patient, but like matured wine, an idea that requires careful nurturing can turn out to be one of your best successes. Plus, taking the long view could see you enjoy other benefits from this too.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

The idea of soaking up the heat on an idyllic beach may be uppermost in your mind. But you might be equally keen to down tools and follow your bliss or your passion wherever that leads. Something can capture your attention in a big way, and you could be ready to leave the known to explore the unknown. Even if you only make a start, this will plant a fruitful seed, Archer.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

You might want one thing and someone else may want another, so reaching an agreement can be difficult. This could be down to an awkward aspect, which might coincide with interruptions and distractions. As disruptive as it seems, it’s only a temporary link. Simplifying your schedule and leaving any uncomfortable conversations for another day will make life so much easier.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Relationships sparkle with promise, and one bond could come into its own with a shimmering blend of energies turning up the romantic heat to the full. Whether you’re in a long-term bond or newly in love, things can take an intimate turn, making this an enjoyable time. Thinking of pairing up with someone on a project? You may have doubts, but it could be a great move.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

You could be in an inventive frame of mind, and able to come up with solutions that others haven’t considered. If you’ve been dealing with an intractable problem, the answer can instantly download into your mind like lightening and may seem obvious. Equally, don’t be so attached to an idea that you can’t see another way forward Pisces, or refuse to acknowledge a better one.
