Sun Signs July 2009
by Ana Ruiz, LMAFA
Aries (March 21-April 20): Mercury traveling through a compatible sign after the 18th is conducive to taking a trip, beginning a new study, or doing some investigative work. The favorable angle of the Sun after the 23rd can bring a chance to show off your talents, leadership skills, and winning attitude. Aries is an active sign considered to be the go-getter of the Zodiac.
Taurus
(April 21-May 21): Attend social functions before the 6th while Venus and Mars align in your sign, increasing popularity. This is also a good time to improve appearance, enhance wardrobe, and to basically spoil yourself with luxuries. However, keep in mind that your words may be distorted during the lunar opposition of the 2nd, 3rd, 29th and 30th. Taureans tend to be naturally quiet and thoughtful.
Gemini (May 22-June 21): Reason and logic are your best allies while Mercury travels in your sign until the 4th. Some fun and adventure may be just what you need after the 13th when Mars travels in your sign. However, be careful if you tend to be somewhat accident-prone or reckless. Geminis, born under Mercury the planet ruling communication, must constantly express themselves.
Cancer
(June 22-July 22): Follow your instincts between the 4th and 18th as Mercury travels in your sector, enhancing intuition. Accept an invitation on the 21st or 22nd when your ruler the Moon travels in Cancer. Make important decisions and choices while the Sun travels in your sign before the 23rd for best results. Many Cancers are excessive worriers.
Leo (July 23-Aug.22): Travel can be especially rewarding after the 18th, when Mercury transits Leo. New contacts made after the 23rd, when the Sun also enters your sign, can prove to be influential and advantageous. However, beware of false impressions while Neptune travels in your opposite sector, particularly if born during the third week of July. Your smile is your special trademark.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Think twice before accepting a spontaneous invitation on the 12th or 13th when the Moon and Uranus aligning in your opposite sector can bring dubious connections. Those born during mid-September can take on a new responsibility courtesy of Saturn in a conjunction with your Sun. Precision and accuracy is important to detail-oriented Virgos.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Mercury’s fortunate angle until the 4th is conducive to speaking your mind and making important decisions. Although it may feel as if you are being tested, considering another’s situation or position quite carefully can bring valuable insight during the lunar opposition of the 14th and 15th. Most Librans are sociable and charming.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Romantic troubles may arise before the 6th as Venus and Mars align in your opposite sector. Expect little cooperation or understanding from others at this time. However, the Scorpio Moon of the 29th and 30th is helpful in patching things up and reaching a mutual understanding. Decisions of a Scorpio are often based upon emotions or intuition.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Relationship issues can surface after the 13th as Venus and Mars align in your opposite sector. Show understanding and sympathy, but do not get too involved in another’s problems during the lunar opposition of the 19th and 20th. The Moon in your sign on the 31st can put things into clearer perspective. Sagittarians are constantly on the go.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The lunar eclipse in your sign on the 7th is favorable for closing deals. The opposition of Mercury between the 4th and 18th can bring some perplexing news. Postpone asking for favors, help, or advice from others until after the 23rd when the Sun leaves your opposite sector. Many Capricorns tend to practical about their pleasures.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19): Minor bad habits or slight imperfections can easily be changed or corrected while the Moon travels in your sign on the 9th and 10th. Try to stick to your budget by spending wisely and in moderation while Jupiter travels your sign, particularly those born during mid-February. When an Aquarian makes a promise it is usually kept.
Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20): The compatible angle of Mercury between the 4th and 18th can bring good news or brilliant flashes of intuition. Try not to dwell on the negative while the Moon travels in your opposite sector on the 25th and 26th. Be extra patient with delays or change of plans that may arise at this time. Pisces tends to be quite modest and can use a good dose of self-confidence every so often.
