A Good Discomfort
The Taurus moon is at odds with Venus, which is uncomfortable for both. Then again, when matters of the heart are too comfortable, bad things happen. People take one another for granted. They forget to pay each other back, or more likely, one party forgets and the other can’t stop thinking about it. A little discomfort can inspire everyone to behave better.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve a fond wish. You’ve had it for a while now, and this is no time to give it up. Anticipation is like a chord that lingers in tension, taking its sweet time before resolving into the major roots that satisfy the ear and return peace to the soul.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Take your sparkling intelligence as a given and don’t overthink things. Being smart isn’t about having many thoughts; it’s about having good ones, helpful ones — thoughts that lead you to solutions that make a difference.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A piece of good karma comes back around. And though this is more about how you feel than the tangible aspects of an exchange, there’s still a satisfying financial aspect of it that allows for new experiences going forward.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Like an action sequence in a movie, each move must be carefully planned. The choreography takes more rehearsal to work out than most people would guess. The easier it looks on film, the harder it probably was to do.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This is the perfect moment to compare your current state with other times when you felt differently about yourself and your life. Use what you learn to set realistic goals. Let past success inform the blueprint.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s not always about doing. In fact, too much action can thwart your progress. Right now, it’s more important to be curious about what’s worth doing. Many interesting things will develop out of an open mind and hopeful attitude.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your emotions give you excellent information to help you make decisions, but they are not the only factors to weigh. Let your feelings help with navigation but don’t let them drive the vehicle.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve a sensibility that people resonate with. And not only does this resonance represent something you have in common with the others, it’s also something they have in common with one another. You bring people together to delightful effect.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s charm in letting loose, laughing at the little things and embracing the absurdities of life. It’s a pleasure and a gift to spend time with those certain people who make you feel playful, and you’ll express yourself in a way that’s genuine and unguarded.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Historical figures, celebrities and people you admire make the same kinds of mistakes everyone else does. You’ve been known to forgive your favorites. Count yourself and your loved ones among the favorites and go easy.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). To your eye, the world is filled with beauty, though sometimes you take in these sights through the blurriness of tears. You’ll be successful in a mission to counteract a hundred reasons to cry with a thousand reasons to laugh.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Ask any instructor of hot yoga, the temperature matters. Warmth can allow for more fluidity, flexibility and the opportunity to sweat out the bad stuff and take in more life-affirming breath.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 28). You’re a natural leader with a regal presence and you’ll connect with people from all walks of life. You’ll be as lucky as you are daring. More highlights: an exchange of promises, perhaps in the form of a contract that spans years. Philanthropic efforts will bring healing and joy to the world. To your friend group, you’ll be the glue, the giggles and the heart. Aries and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 20, 1, 11 and 17.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis epitomized Leo’s regal presence, poise and grace as she captivated the nation and the world with her style. As first lady, she guided the restoration of the White House. Her later career in publishing highlights the artistic sensibility and commitment to cultural enrichment of this legendary icon. Mars and Neptune in Virgo suggest one who is always striving for perfection — Jackie O made it seem attainable.
