Solar Homecoming
The passage of the sun into its home base of Leo recalls how location makes a difference in how talents are seen and acknowledged. Just as it’s hard to see the stars when you’re among city lights, sometimes mega-talents get missed amidst lesser wattage established in the vicinity. Also, note that there’s nothing to fear in a lightless stretch. Everything dazzling needs the dark.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). When someone impresses you, you let them know, often in subtle ways. If they don’t get the signal overtly, they’ll get it subconsciously. The same goes for other messages you communicate today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re hungry to learn, and learn you will. Your education will not come through means that advertise as a school. Your teacher is action, or the proximity of one who models the action.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are projects you take on with the full knowledge that you will never finish them. A project like that requires certain qualities of you — maybe passion, love or faith — and you’re richer for what you learn in the process of the perpetually unresolved.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s nothing like sunshine’s glow to alleviate your concerns and make them appear smaller. Tonight highlights an exchange where the sentiment behind your actions matters more than any other part of the exchange.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You respect your elders, but it’s your respect of youngers that will define your next breakthrough. The eyes of innocence teach by contrast, and the experiences of a new generation contribute a fascinating worldview.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The best feeling comes when you assist. Your kind help is a treasure, and there will be no shortage of takers. By focusing on the needs of others, you create a niche for yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). As independent as a person may feel, none really are. A solitary human can survive, but not as well or as long as one connected to the group. People need to feel seen — a requirement you’ll gladly honor to stellar result.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be called to solve problems, but don’t solve them all. Like an expert mystery writer, you give enough resolution to create satisfaction, but keep some tension alive eternally with a loose end or two.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There will be some red tape to get out of the way, which can be frustrating but is unavoidable and easier than starting a whole new country. Check the boxes and get through it. Tonight, you’ll have something special and enjoy sharing it.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). When people don’t have what’s necessary to solve a problem (for instance, energy, money, time, instruction, skill or other resources), frustrations mount. Read the room. Don’t try to fix things. Listen, observe, defer, respect.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You feel a warmth and familiarity around certain people that is hard to account for, as you seem to be better friends than your actual friendship history would suggest. The feeling is mutual.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Plato said to conquer oneself is the first and noblest of all victories, which is a little hardcore for the demands of the day. There’s no need to conquer yourself, or even steer yourself today. It’s a nobler victory just to accept, appreciate and enjoy yourself.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 22). You may not always seek the spotlight, but it follows you anyway. You’ll be lauded and applauded for the endearing things you do to make a difference, touch people’s hearts and pump the atmosphere up with your joy. More highlights: a streak of wins in the game you love, an exchange of cherished treasures and a heart-altering, life-changing educational experience. Taurus and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 20, 14, 33 and 17.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: From “Barney & Friends” to “Only Murders in the Building” and all the wizards, vampires and pop stars in between, Selena Gomez doesn’t lift a finger or swipe a wand without some kind of magic result. The show business lifer was born when the sun, Mercury and Venus were all in the charismatic station of Leo, so the desire to entertain is written in her stars.
