Weekly Horoscope for the Week of July 23-29
Happy summer days! The life giving Sun has officially taken seat in its own house, the bold, energetic, brilliantly expressive and dramatic Leo for the next weeks affecting us, more like helping us get over hurdles and ourselves to enjoy the happy, hazy days of a hot summer.
We all needed that, a jolt to our energy levels and optimism in this summer of Guns and Roses when the Universe is intent on keeping us on our toes, more than giving us a break.
The “I am therefore I AM” Leo is a positive, solar Fire sign, its “inhabitants” marked by strong, decisively acting, talented people who strive for excellence and recognition in whatever field they choose to function and work. Leo's innate ability to be a leader helps us all manifest, express and accomplish, the Leo Way...bold, in full sight and without inhibitions. A much needed cosmic jolt of energy, as I said which changes the vibrations allover the zodiac.
We will all thrive under the Leo Sun...but keep in mind the T square dangling over the skyes this summmer, created by Uranus, Saturn and Pluto affecting Cardinal signs mainly but prompting us all to unexpectedly make (or adapt to) major changes, hazy Neptune's visit to its own house, Pisces, adding a touch of confusion and inpracticality to our dreams and slowing down their manifestation, Mercury still retrograding adding day to day little nuissances, delays, malfunctions of mechanical and electronic devices and communication between mortals and last but not least, revolutionary, bellicous Mars and taskmaster, "set in its ways" Saturn in Libra approaching slowly but surely the exact point of a face-off mid August...we got a handful to deal with but a UNIQUE, never to repeat again, chance to reclaim, review, re-vamp the old and bring in the new. Tall order you say? You bet, but never has the Universe given us a chance to change the world (ours and others') for the better.
The benevolence of this week's patterns come surprisingly from Mercury ( yes, the troublemaker du jour) intent on making amends on the 24th and 25th when he gets a favourable aspect from benevolent Jupiter and revolutionary Uranus respectively. If you had your intentions set on telling it like it is, these aspects will help you deliver your message clear and simple with astonishingly positive results.
ARIES
Do you feel that too much is too much, sometimes? You are slowly growing weary of the druggery of dayly life and your enthusiastic streak has begun to slowly wilt in the face of the “all talk no action” period. It slows your responses and casts a shadow on your desire to move on, move ahead or move out of a situation that has stretched your endurance to the limits. And that in turn, unwillingly casts a shadow of doubt about and over your belief in family and friends and the world at large. Don't do that. I know you need reassurance more than any other sign of the zodiac( and some recognition would do you good as well, just about now) but this is the time to pick up your arms fallen (temporarily) on the sideways and forge ahead. Do not act yet but prepare for a step ahead as soon as the stars give you the green light. Also....everyone loves you!
TAURUS
With the mighty Sun stationed in Leo for a little while, your life should get a much needed bonus in energy and productivity. Just that the Sun makes a square to your own sign, reminding you in no uncertain terms that your daily routine and home life, relationships with women in your family and environmment need a facelift...pronto! Keeping scores is never productive and it is even more damaging when you feel stubbornly entitled to things nobody seems to acknowledge!!! You know what they say...if everyone says the sun is up and only you see it down...you might want to consider an adjustment in attitude and clock. Learn to be gracious with your love, support, energy. Give without keeping tabs. Remember the saying....The good you do, comes back to you.
GEMINI
With mighty Jupiter in Gemini for a good while now, you should be feeling on top of your game and start to see more clearly where the circumstances of your life have lead to and, more importantly, start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. If you were supposed to be so clearly on top...why are you so stressed out, feeling pressured and finding fault in everything and everyone around? Yes, there is emotional turmoil all around you and the money is nearly not as good as you hoped it would be but is it REALLY that bad? Breathe, Gemini, you are setting yoruself up for a bigger fall if you continue to add stress where none is needed and get involved where you shouldn't. Curiosity killed the cat and becoming involved for the sake of being involved and part of the drama should stop. Now!
CANCER
I will always tell you to be magnanimous with your successes and less vengeful with eventual losses, dear Cancer. And that is because you need to be reminded more often than not. Your sweet, heartfelt actions and feelings are appreciated by everyone but your tendency to make everything...more emotional than necessary and then resent everyone who does not do the same has started to make a dent in your lovely nurturing armour. Becoming bitter is the last thing you should do now. And so is looking at everything with martyr attitude. Pick yourself up! There is no such thing as good and evil if you think about it. Just different perceptions of the same reality. Time for your reality lens to get clearer and brighter. You will thank me for that...and very soon.
LEO
My dear fellow Leo! It has been quite a while since you(we) got to express yourself fully and vibrantly. Maybe life has served you too many lemons lately? Did it seem at times like walking on egg shells with everyone and everything? Have you been outshined by less than worthy folks with less than worthy causes to defend? Or did you, by a weird stretch of the imagination downgraded yourself from Brilliant One to Pussycat? Fret not, since yesterday morning, you got back your roar, your mane is weaving storybook tales of love, bravery and courage and you are back in the driver's seat! Isn't life wonderful? And if not everyone around you is convinced that this is exactly what you deserve, let them know in no uncertain terms that there is a new sheriff in town.
VIRGO
Someone once said” Here comes the future! It looks much like the past, save for an important difference. You can change it!”
I told you several times by now that for the future to manifest according to your exact specifications (you like to be precise!) something has got to give, an attitude that hinders progress, a situation that has never produced the desired results, separating from toxic people or from your own "toxic waste", so to speak. Every thing worth wishing and fighting for is there for your taking IF you clear the slate. You will feel reborn, something you did not feel in ages. Fear has a way of creeping up in the hidden corners of your mind and soul and stay there...if you let it. Time to turn on the light, turn up the volume and build the future, the Sun in Leo gives you the power to tie up loose ends and prepare you for next month's visit of the Sun in Virgo.
LIBRA
When Mars turned up for an extended stay in Libra on July 3rd I smiles and silently encouraged you to shake up your worn out beliefs, feelings of inadequacy and all other mental cobwebs and spring into action. What Mars does (better than any other planet I might add) is giving you the energy and courage to shake up life and routine a little. Whether it is your own doing or circumstances that have become...well, explosive would be the operative word, Mars is sure to help by activating your fighter spirit, your warrior courage and your action-hero mentality. Not bad, I'd say! You love harmony and maintaining peace at all costs, I know, but these are no ordinary times, darling Libra! These are times that shake us to the core! Will you take the challenge and drive the Chariot of your life? I know you will. There might be not much choice anyway.
SCORPIO
Ah, the winds of change! The world is moving and shaking all around you yet you, my deep Scorpio seem stuck in a land of memories and "what might have been"s. Some situations which transpired mid month have you draw back into your shell (read: memory lane) even though you are apparently standing firm your ground, going through the motions or even travelling with friends and family. There is something in the air you can not clearly spell. Does it feel like your world is threatened by change? No, it is just that your world is up for a review. You are a fixed sing and change is something you need to feel strongly about to get on with. Take your (brief) time for now but be prepared to roll with the punches when Saturn takes seat in Scorpio for a long journey this mid October. How about you at least get used to the idea? The sooner you do, the sooner you will realize that something that was unconscionable to you up until recently, is actually ...acceptable.
SAGITTARIUS
Everyone would advise you to follow your heart. In your case, only that would make you happy. I would say this year is the year to double up on mind power first. You have changed and instant gratification without care of consequences is no longer your MO. Mid year is usually when things come to a boiling point, whether it is in your love life, your financial world, your job or your home and hearth. Yet, you managed to pull a sting and gather your witts about you to straighten your home base, income flow and now you are ready for a bit of adventure. The far off places sector of your chart is emphasized now and if distant shores are in your mind and you can navigate the landmine field of Mercury retrograde, by all means! The world is yours to discover. If you follow my advice on line one of your horoscope, you will be able to laugh in the face of delays, missed appointments and silly Mercury shenanigans and empower your world and worldview with new places, new spaces and new people. And that is just what the Universe has in store for you. Enjoy life!
CAPRICORN
You are the traditionalist of the zodiac, preferring the tried and true over the innovative and bold. However, lately, dear Capricorn you have found yourself running in circles trying to put out fires not of your making. You feel that you spin out of control and that you are -unnervingly, not in the driver's seat anymore.You have been involved or got the messy results of your unnecessary involvement in (other people's) situations you should not have gotten involved in. Your desire to control got the better of you with complicated results. There is wisdom in letting people live spontaneously and authentically without the benefit of your timeless wisdom.....You know what I mean! And if you are still finding it difficult to comply with the “live and let live” mantra du jour or if the consequences of your previous “interventions” have you in hot water with family, friends and colleagues, it is the right time for you to consider the truth in...minding your own business. You do not need to be in control ALL the time.
AQUARIUS
The Sun is now in Leo, dear Aquarius and if there ever has been a time for your to mend, appease, reform or re-strategies your relationships it is now. The month of July had you trying to tie up loose ends until now and with Mercury retrograde also had you facing delays, miscommunication, missed or lost mail and all sorts of little nuissances testing your nerves and resolve and your proverbial "I want this done yestyerday” mentality. Time to put that aside for a moment and concentrate on doing things smarter not faster, even when in doing so you will not get things resolved or settled (some things can not be settled at this time and you got to accept it). As the Old Chinese Sage would say: everything will solve in its own good time. There is a time for every project to ripen and for us to get the benefits. If something has a solution, worrying about it does not guarantee it will happen quicker. Get your bearings and stop running like a beheaded chicken. Enjoy summer, enjoy the new you (you have been doing a marvelous thing about it) and every day to its fullest. Carpe Diem!
Take full advantage of meeting new people this second half of the month and keep your eyes wide open for interesting developments with an enigmatic stranger:)
PISCES
In a way, you feel liberated Pisces believing you have found the Philosopher's Stone or at least the perfectly acceptable answer to a long standing situation. Not so fast, I would say. With Neptune well seated in your sign for a while longer, you navigate (or rather float on) the troubled waters of your own mind and imagination most of the time, imagining outcomes extraordinaire from situations which refuse to fit into your dreams. The good news is, life has a way to surprise us with outcomes better than we could possibly imagine, provided that we have the realism, patience and resolve to clear the road of inpractical dreams and blind hope. Hope is good, but resolve and action are better. This week you get a break and get a sigh of relief mainly due to a happy boost to your income. Money do not bring happyness but having your bills paid makes everyone lighter on their feet, you must admit. Life will seem easier and less tedious once you will feel the warmth and energy cast by the Sun in Leo in your 6th House of Health this month. Life is beautiful, appreciate every moment of it.
