To the kind souls born this week, they are living and dealing with the wonder of handling the likes of a moonchild and a Leo.
This is an awesome task for anyone to undertake in this day and age. The wisdom of combining a sensitive, home-loving Cancer with that of an ego-oriented, leader-of-the-world type Leo is without a doubt some undertaking.
The Cancer individual merely wants a home and family, while the Leo wants to be a movie star, the center of attention. Think of Wendy Williams, a well-known TV talk-show personality, who is a Cancer born this week. She talks about home and family but asks for plenty of applause on her stage. That is a combination that is hard to beat and hard to hold together.
People born this week: E.B. White, July 11, 1899; Van Cliburn, July 12, 1934; Harrison Ford, July 13, 1942; Jane Lynch, July 14, 1960; Jesse Ventura, July 15, 1951; Will Ferrell, July 16, 1967; Angela Merkel, July 17, 1954; and Wendy Williams, July 18, 1964.
The full moon is Saturday, July 12. By being aware of that little fact, you can understand why so many are so emotional right now. So there are mood swings as the hot days of summer settle down on us but it doesn’t last long. Looking for a good day to take some action? Try Tuesday, July 15. The moon and Neptune in tune will bring some magic to the day.
Aries (March 21 to April 20) You are headed for the big bang which will happen just before Mars moves out of line with your sun in Aries on July 26. So prepare for some excitement as a final goodbye to Mars and the adjustments it has brought to improve your life.
Taurus (April 21 to May 20) It could be time for a heart-to-heart conversation with a BFF. If you decide the talk is needed, pick a time when you are totally calm and cool. Otherwise, there could be some debate and you won’t be the winner. This weekend would not be the best time. Wait until at least Wednesday.
Gemini (May 21 to June 20) Check the background of the new folks that may pop in and out of your life now. You could be surprised at the number of people who are seeking your friendship. Just find out why and then move on to bigger and better entertainment. Remember you deserve the very best.
Cancer (June 21 to July 20) Knowing what you want and getting it are two different challenges facing you this week. Mars is about to make a divine aspect to your sun sign. Take advantage of it by outlining exactly what you want to happen this summer. It could be new relationship time.
Leo (July 21 to Aug. 20) It is apparent to everyone that you are about to reach your highest goal. With this fact in mind, all you need to do is the work to get there. Get some pals on your team and make your moves fast and you could end up on top of the world. No work, than forget it.
Virgo (Aug. 21 to Sept. 20) The only way you can miss the success you have been working for is to become confused. And with Neptune hanging around, you can be confused. Don’t listen to that and keep going straight ahead like an arrow. You will be fine if you follow your inner voice and stay on course.
Libra (Sept. 21 to Oct. 20) You may be feeling the impact of Mars moving into Scorpio and the action of the past months slowing down. But fear not, you still have Pluto and Uranus to deal with and they promise relationship activity. So if there is a leftover situation that needs attention, get ready to deal with it.
Scorpio (Oct. 21 to Nov. 20) Don’t let past situations get the best of you now. It is time to remember that when you get caught up in past matters it destroys your future plans. It is time to reflect on where you want to be in six months. If you stay in control, you will be a winner on top of your game.
Sagittarius (Nov. 21 to Dec. 20) If you walk through the doors that have been opened for you in the past weeks you will be smiling. You are now in charge of your life and have as much free space as you need. Avoid getting tied down with too many unnecessary chores. No one is worth that right now.
Capricorn (Dec. 21 to Jan. 20) Your success depends on how much effort you plan to put into learning the game. So know that the more you work at it now, the more money you make in the future. A new friend could develop into a close pal. Try and take it slowly and don’t let it get in the way of your goals.
Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 20) You may not know exactly what you want, but you do know change is coming. The best way to handle this is start working on a plan. If it works, keep going. Otherwise, drop it and move on. You will find a BFF who will make your life better by helping you move on.
Pisces (Feb. 21 to March 20) It might be time to take some time off and get away for a couple of days. Life can be a challenge when you are trying to make some partnership adjustments. And then with Neptune in Pisces your imagination is working overtime. Also take time to be your creative self.
