Unfinished love story on your mind? Mercury in Leo X Venus will throw open the doors to reconciliation for THESE signs!
There's a lot happening on the astrological front when it comes to the month of July. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey in a still from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)(Photo: X) Uranus will be entering Gemini during the hallowed 7/7 portal next week, a transit that has had catastrophic results on a global scale over centuries. But joining forces with this explosive energy is the pre-shadow period of one of the most potent Mercury retrogrades of the year, this month occurring in Leo. If you thought that was it, know that this Mercury retrograde in Leo is happening in conjunction with a Venus sextile in the same sign, with the cosmic stage being set for pretty significant energy ripples. To break this down, Mercury's periodic backspin comes with the usual onslaught of communications and decision-making suffering mishaps. In the sign of Leo, this energy finds itself shuffling between the themes of confidence, generosity and a desire to lead, which is what the fire sign stands to represent. Now, add to this the energies of a Venus sextile which brings in harmony in the love, romance and relationships sector. This very interesting cocktail, put simply, basically dims the ego when it comes to the headstrong energy that Leo represents, amplifying forward movement of the more affable kind. Long story short, we're looking at a two-month window for reconciliation. Coming straight to it, signs that are most likely to feel themselves wrapped up in nostalgia starting now, are Aries, Gemini, Cancer and Leo, though the energies are going to be potent enough to have some kind of impact on all signs. Now while missing your ex or even an almost-partner as the stars and planets map the sky isn't unusual. But taking action in such cases mostly reserves itself to free will. With the above deciphered conjunction though, agency gets affirmatively added to the mix with almost certain instances of the past reaching out set to play itself out. Astrologist Amy Demure explains, "Mercury in Leo doesn't whisper, it roars. It forces confessions, declarations and ego bruises to the surface". That being said, she also warns to use personal discernment in acting on the past knocking on your door again, because this could either be a cosmic second chance, or a final karmic test from the universe. So will you be giving love a second chance?

Kate Hudson fell in ‘love' with Kathryn Hahn during a chaotic film audition
Kate Hudson fell in 'love' with Kathryn Hahn during a chaotic film audition. The 45-year-old actress was speaking to Kathryn Hahn, 51, as the two reunited to reflect on their shared experience filming the 2003 romantic comedy How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, in which they played best friends. Describing the start of their friendship in an Actors on Actors interview for Variety, Kate told Kathryn: "You had this bag – I don't even know what was in it; it was like you were traveling – and I immediately was like, 'I love this woman so much'" The film marked Kathryn's first movie role and helped launch her screen career. At the time, Kate had recently starred in Almost Famous, directed by Cameron Crowe, for which she received an Academy Award nomination. "It was my first movie," Kathryn said. "To have you as the lead of it was so grounding. I don't know what I imagined it would be like, but I certainly didn't imagine it to feel just so freaking fun and loose and supported." The pair went on to recall Kathryn's audition, which made a strong impression on them both. "You came in and you were just like, 'Oh my God. I'm so sorry. I couldn't find the parking,'" Kate said. Kathryn added: "I couldn't find a parking spot. I was so sweaty. I couldn't believe I was meeting you. I ran in, in a ruckus, and you were so welcoming." Both actresses are now showcasing their comedic range on television. Kathryn is fronting Agatha All Along, a Disney+ series based on her WandaVision character Agatha Harkness. She also stars in The Studio, an Apple TV+ comedy in which she plays an eccentric marketing executive. Kate and Kathryn also discussed Kate using tarot cards on her birthday under a full moon, with Kathryn connecting the moment to receiving news about Agatha All Along. "You were saying, 'It's time to let things go. There's something you're holding on to,'" Kathryn said. "I keep thinking about it: It was exactly what was supposed to be said at that moment." Kate also spoke candidly about her decision to pursue music. "In COVID, it really was like, God, if I die, I feel like I've left things on the table; I haven't achieved my full potential as an artist," she said. Kate added: "And if I don't have the courage to do something that I love so much, what are my kids going to think?"

Fans of '90s and '00s rom-coms are convinced: 'Materialists' is reviving the genre.
Immaculate Nora Ephron vibes. A cheesy trailer voice-over. Nostalgic typography. An outrageously attractive love triangle that unravels across New York City. Celine Song's latest romance film, Materialists, doesn't arrive in theaters until June 13, but that hasn't stopped fans from making a bold proclamation based on the trailer alone: that the late-'90s and early-aughts rom-com is absolutely back. The second trailer for Song's sophomore film, the follow-up to her Oscar-nominated 2023 debut, Past Lives, was released on Thursday. It quickly set the internet ablaze, and fans of romantic comedies that were primarily released in the '90s and early '00s flocked to social media to praise the trailer, which has been described as an ode to the beloved genre. Materialists follows Lucy, played by Dakota Johnson, a successful young matchmaker and eternal bachelorette who falls into a complicated love triangle with Harry (Pedro Pascal), a charming businessman, and John (Chris Evans), her bartender ex-boyfriend. Fans immediately took note of Song's decision to include a voice-over in the latest trailer, harking back to trailers of rom-coms past, like 2001's The Wedding Planner and 2003's How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. The Materialists trailer is filled with nostalgic, teasing narration, with phrases like 'In a world of…' and 'This summer…,' all while being soundtracked to an indie-pop cover of Madonna's 'Material Girl.' 'From Academy Award-nominated director Celine Song, comes a modern take on what true love is really worth,' the narrator declares. Another quality of the trailer and poster that distinctly recalls the magic of early-'90s and late-'00s romantic comedies? Its choice typography — playful, clean and modern in a pastel hue — appears stylistically on brand with other standout romantic-comedies of the time, like Two Weeks Notice, Sweet Home Alabama or 27 Dresses. The Materialists promotional poster, along with its tagline 'Some people just want more,' is for some fans also reminiscent of late-'90s and early-aughts rom-com poster archetypes. The film's personable, lighthearted vibe is further demonstrated by A24's recently released handwritten character sheets, each accompanied by a flatlay that corresponds with their given interests. Johnson's Lucy is a 'workaholic' of 'average height,' while Pascal's Harry is 'old money' and Evans's John 'voted for Bernie.' 'She's at a very interesting time of her life where she's sort of teetering between two worlds,' Johnson told Entertainment Weekly about Lucy earlier this month, adding that Lucy is 'on this journey of trying to figure out whether she wants a life that she thinks will make her happy or a life that she knows will be extremely challenging, but she will be actually loved.' For rom-com enthusiasts, Song's choice of men to round out the Materialists love triangle makes total sense, with a veteran onscreen love interest in Evans and the internet's latest obsession in Pascal. Evans, of course, famously appeared in early-aughts mainstays like Not Another Teen Movie and The Perfect Score, before starring in romantic comedies like What's Your Number? And Before We Go in the mid-2010s. Pascal, meanwhile, since emerging as the 'internet's daddy,' has been taking mainstream media by storm. Fans have long voiced their desire to see The Last of Us star as a romantic lead. Song has yet to address the comparisons to earlier rom-coms, but she has spoken about the importance of exploring modern love in her films. 'Love and dating, even though those are things that men do as well, there is a dismissive feeling of it being called a chick flick or lighter fare,' Song said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. 'I think there's nothing more hardcore than this thing that we do, which is love someone. Romance is a very hardcore thing because it's one of the most dramatic things that everybody gets to do. It's one of the biggest dramas of our lives.'
