weekly horoscopes - july 1 / july 7, 2008

	aries
	march 20 - april 19
	Mars moves into Virgo and brings even more of a work focus. If you’re employed this means plenty to do and at times, that you’ll need to make a special effort to stay tolerant, good-natured and a great example to everybody else. Although feedback and the rewards for what you’re doing are not coming as quickly as you’d like, they remain on schedule and on the way, so the more you can apply yourself now the better these outcomes will be for you in the end. Even if you aren’t working in the usual sense of the word, you still find plenty to do this week and will need to persist towards your main objectives.

taurus
april 20 - may 20
You’re getting clearer about what you like to do, those things you currently enjoy and want to spend more time pursuing, versus those that either you don’t seem to get very much from anymore or that might even seem like rather a waste of time. Why you feel this way is probably not entirely certain just yet, but the important thing to realise is that you do, so it’s time to listen far more to what your instincts say. Streamline and rationalise your spare time activities to reflect more accurately what best satisfies you, because although you do these things for fun, your time for recreation isn’t unlimited after all.

	may 21 - june 20
	It’s crunch time for your relationships, especially if there’s a family connection, the contact is an intimate or a personal one, if you share your home or would like to in the future, or if you feel there are lots of changes needing to occur. The prospect of change doesn’t scare you since you know it’s often for the best, so if there is scope for improvement you’d be wise moving things along, even if you don’t see the full impact for a while yet. Otherwise if there are already significant stresses and you’re just holding things together for the sake of peace, you’ll need to make a superhuman effort now, that’s for sure…

june 21 - july 22
You’re very aware of other people, what they want, require and feel about things, also how whatever you do might affect and impact on them. This is very admirable, but not so smart if your own desires are neglected and undervalued in your rush to favour everybody else. With the new moon in your sign on July 3, the cosmos suggests it’s now the right moment to lavish a little more attention on your own needs, since once you are happier and more content, you’ll have more to offer other people anyway. Be kinder to yourself this week then, some new clothes or a new hairstyle would definitely be a treat…

	july 23 - august 22
	Your finances are highlighted, meaning a mixture of both helpful and less welcome effects. The good news is that though people are still unlikely to force their hard-earned cash on you unbidden, if you accept your outgoings will be greater than normal now, you can act accordingly and have a chance to improve your income significantly as a consequence, perhaps as the result of some very unexpected developments. But if you dodge the issue and carry on as before, your expenses will certainly hurt you more than you’d hoped, while improvement comes through your own efforts and not anybody else.

virgo
august 23 - september 22
Mars enters your sign and that’s a mixed blessing, but generally one to welcome after its passage through the sign before yours over the past couple of months. Mars moving is like taking the top off a bottle of fizzy drink that’s been shaken around, so while Saturn still ensures this won’t all gush forth without any limitation, you do feel more confident and certain of your ground, those things it is right to make a stand about and where you’re better just to keep your mouth closed. You’ll also have more energy than usual and it’s important to use this, either by getting physical or simply by working hard.

	libra
	september 23 - october 22
	In many ways this week highlights your essential dilemma, that of always feeling pulled in one direction or the other. Now it’s a choice between the outside world and your private and personal life, so while in the shorter term external events apparently command the majority of your attention, according to the long view it’s your inner life most needing your input. Sure, there are people you’d like to see, events to attend and responsibilities that you can’t ignore. But life is changing more rapidly than you’d imagine and there are certain issues only you can properly address, quietly and away from the public gaze.

scorpio
october 23 - november 21
The new moon encourages you to look again at what you believe and why. Pluto’s return to Sagittarius has you assessing those things you hold most dear, what matters to you above all else and how maybe you ought to try seeing things slightly differently, in the light of your experiences and recent events. While the cosmos suggests it’s the moment to go all out for what you want, it also emphasises the importance of being sure whatever you aim towards, is really right for you in the first place. It’s a week then to focus on a few key objectives, while letting other issues gradually disappear from your view…

	sagittarius
	november 22 - december 21
	Pluto is back in your sign until late November. You’re a free spirit and don’t really see why you need to account for your actions, but you do yourself a disservice and make life harder than it need be, every time you let somebody get the wrong impression of what you’re all about, neglect to clarify potential misunderstandings, or don’t put yourself over in the best way that you can. You may think where you’re coming from is plainly obvious, but others don’t always share your insight. After all the changes you’ve experienced during the past few years, you must now make a special effort to get this across…

capricorn
december 22 - january 19
The new moon places an emphasis on other people, particularly those you are closely connected with, either in a business or a personal sense and possibly even both. This could be hard to balance at times with the things you must do for yourself and might lead to some resentment, even to an uncharacteristically emotional response, if you aren’t clear in advance about the right way to handle the situation and to get the best from both worlds. You have some important obligations that certainly you can’t neglect, but there are others you’ve taken on yourself and that really you’d be better letting go.

	aquarius
	january 20 - february 18
	You value independence and for some years, have aimed for greater freedom financially. At work, you could be following an even more individualistic angle than you were before, although this was always very distinctive. You may have discovered a new direction and set of values that differ significantly from those of wider society, or you might be trying to extricate yourself from the controlling influence of other people. Nevertheless, you won’t get so far if you exclude everybody else from this process entirely. Some outside input proves helpful, so you’d be wise proactively selecting the kind you want.

february 19 - march 19
The new moon falls in an area of your horoscope linked with self-expression and connected especially with the urge to be yourself. This signifies a new start and the beginnings of a process, the results of which won’t be fully realised until later on this year and into the early part of next. There are many things you are holding together for the sake of appearances, that have their roots in your private life, yet seem to impact primarily on your public reputation. Ultimately this course of action is not worth the cost to you in personal terms, so from now onwards you are gradually starting to accept this fact…
