Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, July 30, 2012: This year you are practical and energetic. A change in your daily routine could transform the quality of your life. Greet a surprise with excitement. If single, you could meet someone who is quite exotic and different. If attached, the two of you will ask for different things from each other. Listen closely, and go along with this change. A trip together could re-invigorate your bond and make it stronger. Capricorn is always concerned with the logistics. A baby born today has a sun in Leo and a moon in Sagittarius if born before 12:29 a.m. Afterward, the moon will be in Capricorn.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • Step up to the plate immediately in the face of indecision and/or a lack of leadership. Others will adapt quickly to a change in how you proceed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • • • Do not hesitate to detach and look at the big picture. This vision will help you not only in the moment, but also in general – as long as you keep revising it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • Be sensitive to your priorities, and decide which direction you are heading. You might be unusually inspired, yet you’ll need to bring that quality to those around you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • • Defer to others, and follow through on what is important. As you proceed, if you are honest with yourself, you’ll change your perspective.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • Stay mellow in your dealings with a creative and dynamic person. Unexpected news throws a touch of chaos into your day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • You need to deal with an associate or partner with kid gloves, as this person could bolt in a new direction.

LIBRA Sept 23-Oct. 22) • • • If you can stay close to home, by all means, do so. You will be more efficient and get a lot done. Take a hard look at your financial structure and ways of paying bills.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • Return calls and emails before you structure any plans; otherwise, you’ll be revising what you are doing most of the day.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • Remain sensitive to your finances and direction. You might want to rethink your budget. An unexpected idea could be a moneymaker if you feel free enough to act on it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • Changes seem inevitable, but you are more comfortable with these modifications than many people are. Others might need a hand in adjusting.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • Know when to back off and do something in a very different way. You will be a lot happier if you do. Also, let someone play out a brainy idea without interfering.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • Listen to news more openly, even if some of it jolts you. Transform a difficult situation through patience and openness.
