Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, July 9, 2012: This year your ability to communicate comes through clearly. You will help others to better understand you, and you will understand them better as a result. Learn to walk or exercise your tension away. If single, what you want and what you get could be quite different. If attached, you also might express conflicting messages. Your sweetie can help you identify it. Aries always gets you charged up, perhaps more than need be! A baby born today has a sun in Cancer and a moon in Pisces if born before 5:14 a.m. Afterward, the moon will be in Aries.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • • A fiery moment could force you to regroup and make different plans. Your ability to put events in a positive light helps heal nearly any wound.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • Remember, you do not have to prove anything … but you still may be tempted to throw yourself into a risk anyway.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • Let go of a morning upset and a need to do something in a certain manner. You have a lot going for you, which becomes clear in a meeting.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • Take charge. If you stumble upon a disagreement behind the scenes, do not get involved. The people who are involved are likely to let go of their snippiness, given time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • You see what others don’t. Don’t try to open up someone’s perspective when he or she is upset and can’t seem to understand where you are coming from.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • You easily could wake up on the wrong side of the bed. Dealing with a person you respect will get you past this bad morning mood.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • • Don’t say anything until you feel you have grasped the big picture. Listen to what is being shared, but recognize that others want your feedback and direction.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • You might want to rethink your anger before you express your frustration to someone. Open up to new possibilities and different ways of handling your irritation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • You might not expect the string of successes or excellent interactions that head in your direction.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • Take a stand, and handle a personal matter. Give up the need to control, yet put out what you want in a clear and direct way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • • Keep conversations moving. Opportunities knock on your door because of your wit and creativity.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • You offer more than you realize, but you often undermine yourself. With someone harping in your ear, sometimes it is difficult to get a better sense of self.
