In the Season of Maternity
All humans are born of a mother. This is a theme of Cancer season, a constant return to the maternal. Whatever one’s feelings are about it, the fact of life is that no human can grow without nurturing. Unlike the deer or the owl, we are a species with a brain so big it needs more time to form than the womb will allow. We are helpless until helped. How are you still being helped? How are you helping?
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Any influence you have will come from dealing in what is. There are things we wish were true, things we are trying to make true, and there is just truth — some call it reality. The more you love what is, the more you love yourself.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your inspiration is often in small things, but today it’s big and obvious instead. You’ll be witness to a talking-to like the locker room speech before the big game or the backstage huddle before show time.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s plenty of greed in the world. You’re hoping to keep yourself out of the category. Wanted items will be displayed with obvious price tags, some of which are above your current spending limit. Peruse. Think about it. Shopping isn’t always buying.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Accomplished people will inspire your own accomplishment. Once you establish a bond of communication, the rest will come easily. Shared enthusiasms will include, but not be limited to, the aesthetic, epicurean or athletic.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Wind chimes tell you when the action is moving and how. They indicate a force that can’t be seen. People will be like chimes, sounding out and moving according to influences unseen to you, but you respect that those influences are real, and that makes the difference.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Warmth radiates through your friendship sector. Old friends figure into the mix. Even if you’ve known someone for years, there are still new things to learn about them. You’ll share such tenderness now.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Anything you do to make your home more comfortable will bring luck to your realm. Invite a special someone to kick back with you. You’ll be spoiled with affection from another earth sign (Taurus or Virgo).
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). “Who cares?” sounds like a dismissive question, but it can actually be an earnest way to get to the heart of what you’re doing, especially if what you’re doing is art or commerce. “Who cares?” will speak to the relevance and social usefulness of an endeavor.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Restraint and refinement are the themes. You’ll show up to life as though it as a formal dinner. You’ll dress right, break the ice appropriately and be ready for high-level conversation. Then you’ll dance.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your reputation is an asset. You don’t think about it as being this because it was long ago established and now it only needs to be preserved. Still, anything that lifts your reputation is worth the attention, effort and money that goes into the process.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll appreciate boundaries and respect matters of intimacy. People are different in private than they are in public. The discrepancy is one to consider, ponder, respect and, in some cases, remedy.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Live for yourself; otherwise you don’t have a self to give to someone else. But that is not all. You have a natural tendency to push the boundaries and rules of partnership. Call out the infractions. Don’t stop being you.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 12). Not one, but two windfalls will allow you to get what you need to make a dream happen. But you’re too wise to believe that getting what you want will make you happy. The best part of good fortune will be the way you apply it to uplift and improve the scene for everyone in it. More highlights: a reunion, honest, heartfelt communication that deepens relationships and glorious meals. Leo and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 5, 12, 18 and 40.
