STARS WEEK JULY 20
July 20th, 2009ARIES
March 20 – April 18
Discussions about various options involving your work or lifestyle have seemed endless and understandably, you’re getting impatient. Still, do nothing until after this Wednesday’s eclipse, which is likely to shake things up, and in completely unexpected ways. Meanwhile, focus on overcoming any frustrating roadblocks. If you’re ready to move fast, the coming days’ sudden developments should do the trick.
TAURUS
April 19 — May 19
Having lived with confusion all month, you’d think everything that could change would have. But with two eclipses introducing unexpected developments between now and early August, there’s more to come. The thought’s exhausting. But soon you’ll be intrigued, and not just by the extent and promise of these developments, but by how they could free you from seemingly unrelenting dilemmas.
GEMINI
May 20 — June 20
Others seem determined to get you to make solid plans. But your instincts are to keep things loose. This is wise, which means your biggest challenge is distracting those who’re determined to get you to commit. Instead of explaining your reservations, involve them with you in the exploration process. That will both keep them busy and prove mutually informative.
CANCER
June 21 — July 21
Wednesday’s Cancer eclipsed New Moon ends a month-long cycle of personal reflection and far-reaching change. You’re probably feeling confused and that your life’s in chaos. But this is only the disarray that accompanies progress. Tempting as it is to stick to what you know, muster the courage to seize on seemingly risky offers or ideas. You’ll never regret it.
LEO
July 22 — August 21
Events that could rearrange elements of your life are both sudden and, as decisions are up to others, worrying. However, the individuals in question are actually better informed than you are. So tempting as it is to keep changes to a minimum or dispute their decisions, instead go along with them. You’ll soon realise how wise they were.
VIRGO
August 22 — September 21
Sudden changes in circumstances or the situation of others are having a knock-on effect on your life, but for various reasons you’ve no say about it. Ironically, the resulting confusion forces you to deal with various existing arrangements and future plans from a different and, ultimately, far more productive perspective. Knowing that, explore your options and keep any arrangements loose.
LIBRA
September 22 — October 22
Because July’s two eclipses, on the 7th and this Wednesday, both trigger far-reaching changes in your work or lifestyle, you’re already in transition. And by now you’ve probably realised that what’s least expected can also prove remarkably worthwhile. Bear this in mind now as, although things are still in transition, you must say no to certain plans and yes to others.
SCORPIO
October 23 — November 21
Events during July’s first half should have convinced you that what you regard as unwelcome events could actually be in your best interests. Remember this now, when others’ decisions force you to relinquish arrangements or associations that are dear to your heart. Challenging as letting go is, it clears the way for the new and timely developments coming your way.
SAGITTARIUS
November 22 — December 20
The obstacles you’re facing have appeared at exactly the wrong moment. Only weeks ago you committed to new ventures that, while exciting, are making demands on your time, money and certain close relationships. Difficult as this week may be, every dilemma offers its own variety of lesson, each of which will come in handy when the pace picks up again.
CAPRICORN
December 21 – January 18
By now you’ve undoubtedly realised that tackling life with your usual swift efficiency can actually make things worse. With continual changes, solid facts have been in short supply and confused even the simplest arrangements. Knowing that, adopt an uncharacteristically easy-going attitude about plans. This avoids unnecessary struggles but also allows you to focus on learning from events, not micro-managing them.
AQUARIUS
January 19 — February 17
Every day raises yet more questions about your life, close relationships and future. This is unsettled but also perfectly normal for the weeks just prior to the potent Aquarius eclipsed Full Moon on August 6th. What’s coming apart is only clearing the way for either a new and improved version of existing arrangements or something far better than you’d imagined possible.
PISCES
February 18 — March 19
For ages you’ve been worrying about tricky arrangements in which others either have all the control or are cleverly manipulating the situation – and you – to suit their requirements. While you’ve been unable to do much about this, you’ll soon be able to impose both order and justice. Knowing that, bide your time. You’ll soon be making decisive moves.
