Horoscope: July 21, 2017

Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



After weeks of aimless discussion and days of unrewarding efforts to make plans, it’s become clear that if you don’t commit to certain arrangements, they won’t take place. This means clearing your own mind about what you want to see happen, then winning others over to that vision. And within days.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



For ages there’s been talk about changes in elements of your domestic or working life, but you’ve managed to sidestep these. Suddenly things are moving swiftly, so much that you’ve little choice but to at least discuss these seriously. Once you learn more, you’ll realise these aren’t just unavoidable, they’re timely.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20



Just when you thought that certain tricky situations were resolved, events are about to throw those plans into chaos. Worrying as that sounds, these sudden and often unsettling developments are ushering in changes that aren’t just timely, they’re overdue. Still, initially, the odds are good you’ll find them puzzling.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21



Appealing as the idea of things being straightforward may seem, during this week of ever shifting situations and ups and downs in mood, it’s unlikely. Many of these issues have needed attention but the time has never been right. Now events are forcing those concerned to face and discuss these.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



While you can’t prepare for the unexpected insights that will accompany Sunday’s Leo New Moon, you can consider which elements of your life have become burdensome or, perhaps, need to be rethought. Don’t worry if the next step is unclear. Within a few days, you’ll know exactly what to say and do.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



As somebody who’s a Virgo and, therefore, somewhat of a perfectionist, you regard errors as exactly that, not an opportunity to learn. Yet if you can manage to ignore that reaction and, instead, focus on the way challenges are reshaping your thinking, you’ll begin to recognise how powerful the resulting insights are.

Libra | September 22 – October 22



Your efforts to plan ahead are likely to lead to frustration. The foundation on which those plans would be based is itself shifting, which means that whatever you organise is unlikely to remain as you first envisioned it. Still, this gives you a chance to rethink things, when and as you please.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



This weekend’s New Moon may usher in a fresh perspective for everybody. But because it accents the structure of your life, what you discuss, discover and think about could lead to vital insights and exciting ideas about the here and now, and the future. The more you talk over, the better.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



If life’s become a little too predictable recently, you’ll welcome the cycle that begins with the Sun’s move into the most expansive portion of your chart. For ages you’ve been fantasising about getting away, and especially about new people and places. Now sudden and, often, unexpected events will make that much-needed escape possible.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18



One particular individual complained that decisions you made recently were both inconvenient and unwise. Obviously, that’s from their point of view. Still, it’s worth asking exactly what bothered them. Expect a lengthy and at times unsettling conversation. While, their response won’t be easy to listen to, it will be informative.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17



Obviously life would be easier if you could discuss how best to deal with the sudden changes reorganising things once, and be done with it. However, because these are only just beginning to unfold, before anything’s settled, there are bound to be a series of ideas, conversations and tentative arrangements.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



Ignoring the ideas others spout that you disagree with is one thing. Long ago you learnt their views won’t make a difference in your life. Now, however, certain of the matters they’re discussing will have an impact. Talk over your concerns, and in detail. But stick to these issues and these alone.
