monthly horoscopes - july 2009

	aries
	march 20 - april 19
	July sees a new focus stirring, the intensity of which varies, but that provides a background focus over the next couple of years and on a psychological and emotional level, drives everything you do. Your quest is to identify a new base for yourself, in terms of where you believe you belong in the world and how accepted you feel for yourself. These changes reflect in the way people regard you and how subsequently you view your position in the universe. There may be physical changes to where you’re living, so long as any new developments help you to feel happier and more contented within yourself.

taurus
april 20 - may 20
It’s safer continuing as you always have. You know where you’re going as much as anybody can and you’re aware where you’re coming from that’s for sure. It’s comfortable narrowing your gaze and just carrying on down that same old path, but who is to say that if you looked around you wouldn’t notice lots of other intriguing possibilities elsewhere? Maybe life is too precious not to give it your best shot and you owe it to yourself and to the world in general, to develop your talents as much as you are able? Consider some alternatives to what you’re doing now and don’t feel frightened by new experiences…

	may 21 - june 20
	You either have money or you haven’t and you either think that matters or you don’t. Look at the issue more deeply and it gets complicated though, once you consider how the cash in your pocket, actually has a minimal value by itself. It’s simply pieces of paper or discs of cheap metal, that are only worth what everybody believes because everyone agrees on it. If one person says different and another after that, the whole concept gets devalued and means nothing subsequently. The same applies to a range of issues in your life then, that stand for zero on their own and only have real purpose if you share them.

june 21 - july 22
The first solar eclipse in a series highlighting your constellation intensifies your ongoing transformations and encourages you to look closely at yourself. Primarily in question are your interconnections with other people and how you’re best able to enjoy lasting relationships, while still retaining sufficient freedom to be yourself and do the things you want. This is likely to take some time to get right with heaps of personal honesty around what you need and expect from these encounters, especially at close quarters. You can be certain anything that’s too awful to discuss, is exactly what should be on your list.

	july 23 - august 22
	You’re wonderful, with many stunning attributes and talents to your name. Still, this doesn’t mean there isn’t scope for further improvement, not in terms of outward success or the trappings of achievement necessarily, but from the perspective of understanding yourself the best you can and addressing certain issues everyone experiences in one different format or another. As you grow, patterns of behaviour become established as a means of dealing with circumstances at a given time. Over years these resurface during periods of stress and could start seeming out of place, unless you think them through.

virgo
august 23 - september 22
Even you, with your talent for the mundane, eventually reach a turning point and wonder what it’s all been about. You’ve been approaching this for quite a while, have threatened and retracted, decided and backtracked, more on the basis of personal doubts rather than the sweet-talking persuasion of anybody else. Indecision isn’t the best way to describe how you feel, because you can see both sides whatever you choose and the advantages whichever option finally wins through. Your only real answer lies within yourself, the things that bring you joy you must continue, those you’re dreading now are already over…

	libra
	september 23 - october 22
	Like the Scales you’re built for balance, but a stable surface for you to do your thing on is fundamental. For some months you’ve been metaphorically sitting on a pressure cooker instead and although largely you’ve been fine, this isn’t a situation you’ll be able to maintain much longer. Though you’d deny there’s anything amiss and blithely continue meanwhile with your regular affairs, it’s as if a part of you can sense what’s building and feels thrilled in a weird sort of way. Though it’ll take decisive action and that isn’t your favourite proposition, you can only keep on coasting in the doldrums for a little while more.

scorpio
october 23 - november 21
There will always be things, about those you know and where you find yourself, that you don’t like and yet cannot change. Instead of getting angry over issues you can’t control there is something you can do that’ll make a big difference. Work on your own attitude instead, trying to detach yourself from what causes your unhappiness. That’s easier said than done, because if it were this straightforward, many psychologists and psychotherapists would be out of a job. Still, it’s far from an impossible task, with success resting on a logical perspective and on a thorough comprehension of your emotional state.

	sagittarius
	november 22 - december 21
	Unfortunately, though you have personal freedom you can't do exactly what you like. You're a member of society and you don’t live in isolation, no matter what distance you try to maintain. There are collective values to appreciate and accept as equal to your own, plus the closer relationships get to you, the more you must take these on board. Money is a flashpoint where divergent views are concerned, because what one person believes is an essential expense, another could think is a waste of resources. All you can do is ensure more to go around, meaning there is less need to argue over what you share…

capricorn
december 22 - january 19
Generally, it’s your ambitions that are emphasised, together with your ability to put your emotions on hold while you concentrate on the practicalities. Some have called you cold because of this and it looks that way to those on the receiving end, who aren’t pleased taking second place to your utility bills, or being discouraged from washing because the bathroom is clean. What’s often underestimated is the value you put on partnership, because as anybody who keeps goats will tell you, they hate being alone. This could even be called your Achilles heel, if you end up with somebody as manipulative as you are…

	aquarius
	january 20 - february 18
	You’re always at a difficult age. Just as one crisis dissipates there's another on the way, though you’d have thought after all the challenges of recent years, it wouldn’t hurt to have things quieter for a while. Still, if you’re honest, how tedious is that? Almost as dull as doing things you don’t like, supporting people who don’t appreciate you with something you don’t believe in any more, what do you think? Though you’re not a quitter, fundamental changes are overdue to reflect the inward transformations you’ve already experienced. It’s time to let the fun in and to live life larger, without such hindrances.

february 19 - march 19
You have responsibilities. There are obligations to your kids if you have them, your parents if they’re around, every member of your family if you feel like it, your partner definitely and various pets. There’s the whole of humanity, they could use a hand, your home needs your attention and your car if you’re typical, cries out for maintenance. If you have any time left you might try eating and sleeping, getting your exercise as you dash between the kitchen and the bedroom, or throwing yourself into bed. That’s an exaggeration? Well maybe, but this set-up can’t continue and its finale is already counting down…
