Your Stars This Week | July 19th, 2020

The coming week is likely to present a great many opportunities for the eager and motivated to take strong, decisive action -- and this will require more energy, fortitude and foresight than may have been required in the recent past. There are those who do well simply drifting along, letting their course be determined by the current; this week, such an approach is not to be endured, for it will only lead to disappointment if one lets such inertia take hold.

Now is no time to be burdened by trivial issues, for they will only serve to distract from the things that must be addressed -- or, more importantly, the things that must be done. There is some value to talk, certainly, but there is far more to action -- and swift, decisive action is the name of the game this week.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Expose yourself to new things this week, and you'll surely be inspired to move in a new direction -- which will please those tasked with teaching you. (April 5-April 19) -- You must take all the time you have available to you this week to ensure that a certain family situation is resolved before anyone heads off on his or her own.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Pay attention to all signs and indicators this week. Some may offer warnings that will likely seem old and familiar, but a new opportunity beckons. (May 6-May 20) -- Focus on what is going on within you this week. Internal rhythms, shifts and upsets will make themselves known only if you connect the dots between feeling and doing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Something you've been fearing would happen at any time is likely to happen this week, but it's not going to be as bad as you thought. Keep looking ahead. (June 7-June 20) -- Someone who has been trying to get you to reckon with the past will be disappointed this week as you dedicate yourself to the future in a new and exciting way.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Don't shy away from promoting your own agenda this week; success depends on attracting the right support from the right crowd in the right way. (July 8-July 22) -- Enthusiasm for a certain endeavor may be waning this week, but fortunately, there are many alternatives that hold you in thrall. One in particular offers profit.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- The more you learn about a particular subject this week, the more you'll be able to do when someone provides you with an unusual opportunity. Be ready! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- A sheepish approach to a tricky situation is not recommended this week -- nor must you tolerate it from anyone. Now is the time for some bold, decisive action.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Your energy may wax and wane throughout the week until you recognize a certain opportunity that seems made for you. Then you'll be raring to go! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Many want to get in touch with you this week, but only some know how to get through to you. There's a difference; you'll want to help only a certain few.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You may have to work harder than expected this week to keep things separate and identifiable. You can't afford to confuse one thing with another right now. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- What you are told as the week opens isn't likely to come to pass as expected, but throughout the week you should be able to keep abreast of all essential developments.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You'll have more energy than expected this week -- but the trick will be picking just the right project in which to apply it. One or two stand out. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- Inspiration comes to you this week in a very unusual form. Others may not see it or understand why you are doing what you are doing, but you have all the answers you need.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Someone is likely to tell you that the possibilities are endless -- but you know better this week. Don't let someone make the decisions for you. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You have some information that could prove a powerful elixir if delivered to the right person at the right time. Don't second-guess yourself; you know what's what!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Productivity is the key to success this week, but it's likely to come in one or two unusual forms. Doing what you usually do isn't going to be enough. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You cannot afford to have your reputation tarnished by someone who doesn't even know what is at stake this week. You can and must be considered reliable by those in charge.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You'll feel an unusual amount of pressure from someone who is trying to push you into something you cannot afford to get involved with at this time. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You'll do well this week provided you stick to the things you know how to do. When you step out of your comfort zone, you may be risking more than you have to lose.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You don't necessarily want to stay where you are this week, and yet the means to travel may not be readily available to you. A friend solves this problem. (March 6-March 20) -- You are likely to enjoy more personal satisfaction this week after you do something that others have refused to do. This amounts to a victory for you and you alone.

Your Stars This Week for July 12, 2020

Your Stars This Week | July 12th, 2020

The coming week is likely to see a great many individuals fighting against trends that do not seem to favor individual progress -- but what must be studied is the overall effects of such trends on large numbers of people as compared to the individual. This may be a time in which the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

Those who find that they are "stuck" in some way because circumstances do not favor plans they have been working on for some time will discover that others are likely to be far more understanding than expected -- and why is that? It's for the simple reason that everyone is facing the same kinds of restrictions at this time -- and enjoying the same opportunities, limited in scope though they may be.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- A shock to the system early in the week has you walking a very different path later on. No matter what road you take, you'll enjoy unusual benefits. (April 5-April 19) -- This is a good week for you to let someone call the shots -- at least until certain progressive trends have been established. Your reputation is in no danger.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Looking back, you'll likely be able to divide the week into two equal halves -- the first marked by a number of new questions, the second by inspired answers. (May 6-May 20) -- Now is the time for you to insist on being heard. What you have to say can benefit everyone within the sound of your voice, and you want the largest possible audience.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Keep slogging away; you'll surely have something to be proud of when all is said and done. Nothing may be easy this week, but it will all be worthwhile. (June 7-June 20) -- A loved one may surprise you this week with a pronouncement that seems to change everything. You'll soon realize, however, that it is nothing you haven't long expected.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You will want to dedicate yourself to getting work done as soon as possible after it is assigned this week. You want time to yourself later on! (July 8-July 22) -- A constant reminder of what you have at stake serves to keep you moving forward this week -- albeit at a slower pace than you had anticipated. You'll stay on track.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- A creative endeavor is met with opposition this week, but only because some people don't understand how you're going to make it happen. You have ways! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- Thinking outside the box allows you to conceive solutions to certain problems that can serve you well in the future as well as now. You're shaping something new.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You'll be inspired this week by the story of one who tried and failed. Careful study of his or her defeat will show you how you can be victorious very soon. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may want to make a habit this week of being up and working before anyone else in the household. Such attention to both time and duties will serve everyone well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You may be surprised to learn what someone has done to overcome a certain obstacle -- and this, in turn, will enable you to overcome one that you face. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- Pay little attention to what those around you are doing at this time, as they are not facing quite the same unusual circumstances as you are. Live your own life this week!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Your ability to play with words and get just the right effect will enable you to be more persuasive than anyone else this week. You attract followers. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- Your ability to see through all manner of falsehoods and deceptions is widely known, but take care this week you don't fall prey to one who is unusually wily.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You'll learn something new this week that allows you to move forward with a much better outlook. You realize that yours is not a unique situation. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You've reached the halfway point of a journey you hadn't planned to take -- but now that you've come this far, you're eager to see where the road ahead will take you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You may butt heads this week with one who is not interested in following official policy. You must strive to reach some kind of compromise. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You must use time to your advantage this week. Watch the clock, and stick to the schedule you created for yourself when things were not as crazy as they are now. Progress may be slow.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You're more interested in what you can learn from direct contact with others this week than in what you can from any book -- but such contact may be in short supply. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Someone is looking out for you, but you mustn't make a big deal out of this fact. Trust that he or she is there, and go about your business; eyes front at all times!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- It's not like you to give up prematurely, but this week progresses in such a way that you are tempted to do just that. A friend helps you stay in the game. (March 6-March 20) -- Your desires are in direct conflict with your needs this week, and you may find that certain people in your company are not helping you walk the straight and narrow.

Your Stars This Week for July 05, 2020

Your Stars This Week | July 5th, 2020

The coming week is likely to unfold in a manner that compels many to see things in a new way, while others will be unaffected by the different rhythms that predominate and the different patterns that emerge as people engage with each other -- and themselves -- throughout the week. It's likely to prove a battle between those who are content to do things in a way that is familiar and comfortable to them, and those who desire to explore new methods of doing the things that must be done.

All must be willing to see things as they are this week, for the shared view is certain to be more important than one's individual outlook. Any attempts to make things sound better or worse than they are will merely prove disingenuous, and others will surely see through them.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You must slow down this week in order to navigate a tricky junction successfully. Someone who is on this journey with you is critical of your methods. (April 5-April 19) -- You can't let someone knock you off your plate simply by offering a different opinion; be strong and confident, and continue along your current course.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- A personal journey nears its conclusion this week, though you don't really want it to end, do you? It's a good time to indulge in a little nostalgia. (May 6-May 20) -- A project receives a boost this week from someone who perhaps didn't know you were involved. It may be a good idea for you to maintain a low profile a little while longer.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You'll want to adopt a very careful approach this week -- and maintain it until a current project has come to fruition. Don't get lazy or careless! (June 7-June 20) -- Your preparations this week should go very well, and you may find yourself waiting for someone to catch up to you before you can move ahead together.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Where two different types of people clash this week, you're likely to find yourself playing the role of referee -- and you must uphold any and all rules. (July 8-July 22) -- A difference of opinion early in the week threatens to run your train right off the track at some point -- unless you can see your way clear to suggesting a compromise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- Communication proves more difficult than expected this week as those methods that have been so reliable in the past fail you temporarily. Be creative. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You have to make a choice this week between complaining about the situation you are in or working to change it from the inside out. Only one leaves you truly satisfied.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You know which way the wind blows, surely, but that doesn't mean you cannot indulge someone's whims this week. Don't lose sight of your destination. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You're leaning toward a certain conclusion this week that may not be supported by the evidence. Before you commit, take the time to look at things from another angle.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You're getting to the heart of the matter, surely, but someone close to you is missing the point of your efforts. Do you have time to explain yourself clearly? (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You'll be giving yourself a good deal of credit this week if you are able to continue along your current path without bending to suggestion or succumbing to distraction.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Do you want to observe this week, or do you want to take part? There is a different reward to be had from each; it's a matter of timing, perhaps. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You are not where you had hoped to be by now -- but is that really something to worry about? This week, you can make a great deal out of what seems to be nothing. Strike a bargain.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You're after something that is of great value only to you -- so it may be difficult to get another to share in your enthusiasm. This needn't be a problem! (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- By week's end, you'll understand what they mean when they say "practice makes perfect" -- and that, in turn, will inspire you to seek an altogether new personal approach.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You can exert a positive influence on others all week, even as someone exerts a similar influence on you. You needn't fear any hazards or obstacles. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- Assumptions may be necessary as you get started this week, but, at some point, you must be willing and able to put them aside and deal in hard-and-fast realities.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You can expect much to happen this week, and you're likely to be at the center of a lot of it. When the pressure builds, a certain someone helps you cope. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You'll want to keep everything clearly in view and within arm's reach if at all possible. Lose sight of something valuable this week and you may never see it again.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You mustn't spend too much time thinking about what others are doing -- or how they are doing it. Certain trends, however, may prove valuable to you. (March 6-March 20) -- A message is lost on its way to you this week, and then it is found, lost again and finally delivered. You're able to put the information it contains to good use right away.
