This is your daily horoscope for Sunday, July 12th, 2026. All times are Pacific Standard Time. Around 4 p.m., the moon enters Cancer. Around 6 30 p.m., the sun in Cancer forms a conjunction with Mercury retrograde in Cancer. This means we've made it halfway through the Mercury retrograde. OMG. Amazing. And it's also going to bring us back to the day Mercury went retrograde, June 29th. This is the halfway up mark. So think about what your personal and obviously the collectives Mercury retrograde stories have been about. This is going to mark some sort of aha moment or turning point when the sun and Mercury, or any other planet with the sun, sit at the same exact point in the sky. It is known as a kazimi. Kazimi is an Arabic word that means in the heart of. And this is the moment where that planet, in this case Mercury, is being reborn. So even though Mercury is retrograde, this is a moment where Mercury has a little bit more strength and clarity. So this can feel like a divine download or something that transpires that feels like, okay, now I know I'm moving in this direction. Now I know I need to make this decision. And maybe it doesn't all happen at once. Okay, Mercury is still retrograde. But there is this kind of like divine download, aha quality. And it can invite you to kind of share and engage with what you have been revisiting, retooling, and reflecting on during the retrograde. It's taking place at 20 degrees. So if you have any planets or placements around 20 degrees of Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn, you will feel it the most intensely. Now around 10 p.m., the moon and cancer forms a sextile with Venus and Virgo. This is gentle, this is sweet, this is great for just pleasant interactions with others, for tapping into your joy, for feeling a moment of respite or feeling appreciated or having a warm meal for feeling grateful, right? There are so many things in many of our lives. I'm speaking for myself that I often take for granted, you know. So this is a moment to really kind of check yourself or maybe out loud list X amount of things you're grateful for, or write them down. And and as you're doing that, make sure to embody it. Make sure to feel it in your heart space, each one that you're talking about, instead of just zooming on to the next one. That's the Venus and Virgo piece. We want to embody it. We want to feel it in our body. What does that gratitude feel like? So just a little hot tip. Also, friendly reminder to please contact Governor Ivy and demand she grant clemency for Jeffrey Lee and the other 26 souls who remain on death row, despite the fact that she abolished judicial override. Their juries all gave them different sentences, but a singular judge threw out those verdicts and imposed death. And that practice is obviously unconstitutional. And it was abolished in 2017 by Governor Ivy herself on her first day of office. But she has not retroactively gone back through the 26 remaining cases and reinstated what their juries decided. So there are 26 people, including Jeffrey Lee, who can get a death sentence even though throughout their whole trial the their jury voted for life or some other sentence. So this is unethical, it's unconstitutional, it's immoral, it's most definitely racist. And please demand that Governor Ivy be accountable and do the right thing. All right, around 11:30 p.m., the moon in Cancer forms a square with Neptune and Aries. This is a little confusing moment, a little sleepy moment, uh emotional moment. Perhaps you have a good cry or you're feeling lost or uncertain, and that can feel exhausting. It could be a moment where you're really tired, but you're having trouble falling asleep. Or maybe you were just whisked away into a deep, deep dream state. As always, I hope your astrology of the day has offered some guidance and support into your day ahead.
