July Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH
CANCER 22 JUNE - 22 JULY
This next year finds you ridiculously busy, but loving it. The sun shimmers on your first house of self, throwing you a healthy dose of optimism and conviction. So if you’re keen for action, the next few months should supply it. You’re on everyone’s wish list socially and come across as a professional wizard at work. The people you meet and the directions you take steer you towards happiness. This extends to the romantic arena, too, with your irresistible magnetism drawing love to you. At work, expect to rub shoulders with seasoned professionals, who seem all too happy to help you.
LEO 23 JULY – 22 AUGUST
Fiesty Mars and Uranus throw you a healthy dose of happiness this month. With this bravado also extending to romance, your newfound confidence can’t help but be sexually alluring – hence the hike in potential suitors. Professionally, you should be setting new targets and self-promoting until you get results. Network, Leo. Give it your all, and soon you’ll be rewarded with financial and career advances.
VIRGO 23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER
There are many Virgos who long for better company. Even those surrounded by love may be feeling a little wistful. So although July is a time of socialising, you may also opt for some solitude. The upside: new freedoms to make your own choices. By month’s end, your stunning new image will dazzle all. Downside: I hear you also fretting over finances, but listen up: next month, cash flow improves.
LIBRA 23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER
Feeling confident? Great, because you call the shots this month. No matter what mayhem or challenges the cosmos creates for the rest of us this month, most Librans should have fun, achieve an important ambition or rise over any opposition. But not without some effort. Although auspicious planets surround you in July, you can’t expect everything to fall into your lap. So if you want something, go after it.
SCORPIO 23 OCTOBER –21 NOVEMBER
The planets tinker with your dream states, and, as a result, your intuition heightens - as do any latent clairvoyant abilities. Should your inner voice whisper sound advice, follow its bidding. Those feeling a tad sexier than usual can look forward to a romantic fling. Watch your expectations, though, as this isn’t a rock-solid phase. For happy couples, love becomes increasingly passionate and perhaps a tad more experimental.
SAGITTARIUS 22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER
July begins with an adrenaline surge. Passions run strong as an opinionated cosmos provokes power struggles or stress. It’s important, though, that you find a way to express what’s bothering you. Nothing good comes from suppressing hidden feelings. After the 23rd, Venus offers new opportunities – prompting intriguing invitations both at work and at home. Some Sagittarians strike it lucky in love.
CAPRICORN 22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY
Your future could open up by taking the road less travelled. Sudden opportunities or chance encounters are likely. And you may finally be freed from a tense situation – great news from those who’ve been feeling overwhelmed. After the 24th, keep an eye out for inspiration that hints at your next step. Late July also promises a time of luck and, perhaps, romance. Enjoy the journey.
AQUARIUS 20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY
With a vibrant tone set early on, you need no excuse to pursue your favourite pastimes: adventure and fun. The world needs its colourful characters, and, Aquarius, you’re undeniably one of them – even if you occasionally test less optimistic souls with your utopian visions. In matters of the heart, though, you may need to choose between old love and new this month. Don’t hurry. There’s no rush.
PISCES 19 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH
Sweep the less savoury issues of life to the side for the time being. Instead, make the most of your vibrant mood by stirring up your social life. Type up an invitation list and call your closest and dearest. You may blow the budget, but memories have a wonderful way of outlasting a depleted cash flow. And it’s not just you doing the giving. Generosity becomes a two-way street, as others reciprocate your love and support.
ARIES 21 MARCH – 20 APRIL
A hectic month means you need to concentrate - a huge ask for any restless Aries. The culprit? Your imagination. There’s a whole world of possibilities out there, and staying tethered to responsibilities could feel like a prison sentence. So behave, and you may get the occasional day release. With passions also running high, July draws you towards illicit liaisons. Just take care that secrets aren’t exposed.
TAURUS 21 APRIL – 20 MAY
Step cautiously through early July, when your emotions run wild. Perhaps your inner voice isn’t as all-knowing as usual. It may therefore be far more sensible to listen to others. Still, not everything gives cause for concern. The cosmos sets the scene for romantic delights after the 23rd, including new playmates. With finances also on side, the occasional luxury is a must.
GEMINI 21 MAY – 21 JUNE
Use your innate Gemini eloquence wisely when communicative Mercury fires up unconventional Uranus - making it a great month to turn brilliant ideas into reality. Start creating, writing, painting - anything! If your trust in someone is shaken after the 23rd, express your dissatisfaction – but without going to extremes. No matter how exasperated you are, gentle persuasion is always more effective than conflict.
