Daily Horoscopes
Saturday 1st July 2006
Might you be having a shy moment? Or is it that you're not wholly comfortable in a new setting? For as much as you might want to have your views heard, you may be holding back. It's likely to fall to someone born under one of the Air signs to coax you: once started, you may not be able to stop talking though - much to someone's amusement.

Sunday 2nd July 2006
Part of you might still be grappling with the 'lack of self-confidence' demon which might mean you're working hard trying to arrive at a decision but not getting very far. The cavalry may take the form of older relatives or friends who've stuck by you through thick and then and who think it's time you reaped the benefit of past efforts. They may want to spoil you.

Monday 3rd July 2006
The need to dress to impress tomorrow could lead to a shopping trip today - and/or to advice from a Libra. The part of you that finds it easy to worry could go into over-drive too. Faced with too much choice you might even feel paralysed and unable to do anything. The same traits that hold you back, might be useful to someone who needs your help to select people for a job.

Tuesday 4th July 2006
Your ruling planet appears stationary - and you might be asked to stand still too. A very important question could be asked over a meal - but throw you into a tizz. A Libra friend could help you keep balanced (even if they become unhinged in the process!). Arranging a party or celebration for the weekend may be deemed necessary.

Wednesday 5th July 2006
You could restore order to a chaotic system - but first might need to bemoan your lot and assess whether further efforts will achieve a goal. Inspired by a Scorpio, you could soon prioritise tasks and make friends with an Aquarius who's new to the scene. A neighbour might ask you to keep a secret. Meanwhile, problems with a leak could prove an irritant.

Thursday 6th July 2006
Someone you meet routinely may be about to surprise you. You could be knocked off your romantic axis. Involvement in a celebration is likely. This too might have a 'surprise' quality about it. An outside possibility is that someone you consider to be a little odd, turns up trumps and helps you entertain a friend who's passing through.

Friday 7th July 2006
It might feel as though your space has been invaded. Relations with someone (a younger Leo?) could reach a crisis. You may feel that information's been withheld. They may have been operating on a need-to-know basis. They might also not have wished to worry you until facts are clearer. A good friend could help you locate your sense of humour button.

Saturday 8th July 2006
Being in touch with home-base may be necessary. Stocking up food cupboards is another strong possibility. It could be that you've sensed there will be extra mouths to feed over the next few days. It might also be that you'd like to change diet. This could be mental as much as physical: new newspaper? - or the need to talk to people with a positive attitude?

Sunday 9th July 2006
You may need to remind yourself that an item was bought to make life easier! A leak or the inefficiency and time-wasting nature of this thing could drive you to distraction. Another possibility is that you lose track of time whilst surfing the Internet - leaving you at odds with someone who has to wait for you. The confidence of someone who's just returned from travelling could launch yet another idea for you to discuss with friends.

Monday 10th July 2006
Balancing work and play may be on your agenda: so you could accept an invitation for late in the day. A film, music or exhibition could be involved. A glossy brochure and discussions with salespeople could also make the day 'different'. Relations with a Gemini could reach a turning point with you each agreeing to try harder NOT to say the 'wrong' thing.

Tuesday 11th July 2006
The urge to improve your skill in a hobby could result in you booking a lesson with an expert or spending more on equipment. Oiling the wheels for a group of people, might mean you're called upon to decipher a timetable or to make arrangements on their behalf. You might also be asked to help with a surprise party planned for the weekend.

Wednesday 12th July 2006
Your inherent need to be efficient and to approach tasks logically could be sabotaged by technology that's not up to the task or by your lack of understanding as to how long certain tasks take. Laughing willingly at your reactions could endear you to someone who really IS trying but views things differently to you. One or other of you might be preoccupied with planning a weekend event.

Thursday 13th July 2006
A food-shopping trip may need to be jointly planned. Involvement in a surprise party is one possibility: another is that guests you haven't seen in ages are about to arrive. A little spice may be headed your way on the romantic front. Knowing who to share a delicious secret with could be hard. For all sorts of reasons privacy could be a growing issue.

Friday 14th July 2006
Your foundations could be shaken. There may be more going on that you might ever have guessed. You could rub up against high finance or see something you weren't supposed to see that alerts you to a passion someone's been trying to keep hidden. With all this going on and preparations for a major event taking shape, your nerves might need extra t.l.c. Practising deep-breathing may be helpful.

Saturday 15th July 2006
The fact that someone's so obviously going out of their way to please you is cause enough for smiles. Add that to improvement in travel arrangements and you could almost make you want to celebrate. Better still may be that a good friend understands your fears, is supportive and coaxes you into tackling something you thought you really couldn't do. This success could be built on - again and again.

Sunday 16th July 2006
Joint finances might need to be discussed - particularly if there are travel plans to be made. A surge in domestic expenses might have temporarily destabilised your position. This is unlikely to be a drama: it's most likely that others will welcome your straight-talking. Everyone might benefit from written records being kept - which is probably down to you.

Monday 17th July 2006
You could uncover a family secret or finally obtain valuation of a family-owned asset. The renovation or rejuvenation of this item might increase its price - prompting you to make contact with 'experts' who promise to work promptly. Speed could be an issue in another way: you could pay extra to get somewhere quickly.

Tuesday 18th July 2006
Your place within a group or organisation may be changing. It could be that you're moving 'up' - or even that you've been head-hunted. You may be asked to keep information 'under wraps' for the moment - yet be almost bursting at the seams wanting to let someone in on good news. A purse, wallet or handbag could be 'busting' too - probably because it's now full of bits of paper.

Wednesday 19th July 2006
Thanks to friends who're either on holiday or are native to a part of the world you think of often, an introduction could be made. Trade could be involved. It might also be that you need an explanation as to why a certain item has ended up in your family's keeping. It's likely too that a Sagittarius friend will have ideas as to how to crack this - and another - 'code' (the second one could be love-related).

Thursday 20th July 2006
You may have fallen into worry-over-drive and need a good friend to anchor you. A Cancer friend's companionship could provide the answer. It's possible too that your nervous system needs a different kind of stimulation: swimming, walking, yoga or dance could help hugely. It might not also be that you're running on spiritual 'empty' and need to do something about that too.

Friday 21st July 2006
Dreams (day or night) could have profound impact. You may want to talk these through with a Fixed sign friend (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius). It could be that your subconscious is coming up with the solution to a long-standing issue. It's likely too that you're almost (but not quite) ready to open negotiations with a potential partner.

Saturday 22nd July 2006
Friends might value your opinion as much as you now need theirs. Even so, there may be crossed wires to untangle: arrangements to meet may have been anything but clear. It's whilst travelling (or standing in a queue) that you could grow quietly fascinated by the way someone uses time. Their refusal not to worry or to engage with matters out of their control is likely to be most attractive.

Sunday 23rd July 2006
Your 'worry' volume could be jammed on high setting. It's likely to take will power (which thankfully could be close to the surface) for you to disengage or reduce this level. Friends might be quick to confirm that you're worrying needlessly. They might also remind you that it's been a long time since you've attracted so many opportunities - so why not feel the fear and do something anyway?

Monday 24th July 2006
It might bother you that communication with someone you once considered a good friend seems to have broken down. Two years ago you might have had near daily contact with this person. Though not a relative, their advice might have helped you through a difficult time. It's possible too that a special place is 'calling' you in much the same way. You may start to plan renewed contact with both.

Tuesday 25th July 2006
A tentative call to someone from the distant past could prompt grown-up reactions from you both. You might agree that some elements of the past are best not raked over and that others are worth discussing. A neighbour or colleague might announce that they're ready to move on - leaving you wondering about security you've shared.

Wednesday 26th July 2006
Enthusiastic friends might encourage you to 'feel the fear and do it anyway'. (Newer friends may be blissfully unaware that you've been doing this for months now.) An older friend who really does understand could arrange a celebration when a deed is done - appreciating you've done a lot more than simply 'earn wings'.

Thursday 27th July 2006
At least one person may want to know 'how you did it'. Explaining thought processes without going off at a tangent (and being seen to be too long-winded) could be seen as a test in concentration. With friends keen for you to join them at different weekend events, planning travel and negotiating time-tables may be necessary. It's as likely that you'll be choosing the 'perfect' outfits (yes, more than one).

Friday 28th July 2006
You may need to consciously 'withdraw' - because you know you'll make a splash in a couple of days' time. Since you may be about to 'knock 'em dead', you might need time to prepare. It's whilst you're cocooned that a (Cancer?) friend could seek you out. It's possible that they don't need to talk - but that they do want to know what you're thinking.

Saturday 29th July 2006
Friends may be waiting to hear from you. It's possible that they don't feel they can make plans until they know what you intend to do. In turn, you may be waiting for a family event to be over. A food-shopping trip could turn into a lengthy expedition. It might take you far longer than usual to choose between items. It's likely too that people you run into will also want to hear your news - all taking up more time.

Sunday 30th July 2006
It might be hard to get a handle on what something's worth or what you're spending. An Aquarius or Pisces friend might try to help you sort this out - but confuse you even more. The process could be pleasant though since it could result in a discussion about what your really like and enjoy and the changes you'd make if you could.

Monday 31st July 2006
If you're into over-the-top reaction, then you might 'spontaneously combust' when an intriguing offer is made. Even if that's not your style, you're likely to be moved by events. From finding a bargain whilst on holiday to news that a close friend is being offered an escape route from a job they now dislike, you could be forced to think out of your usual comfort zone.

Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 2nd July 2006
Your ruling planet, Mercury, arrives at a station on Tuesday. This, coupled with the First Quarter Moon in your finance zone suggests a dramatic change of pace. You may be faced with the need to arrive at a key decision within a matter of weeks. A host of questions still to be asked could leave you 'all of a dither' midweek. Indeed, you could drive a few people (particularly those born under the Fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) quite crazy with your indecision. Your floundering is likely to be 100% genuine midweek. On Thursday, Jupiter arrives at its station however. The trials and tribulations of the last few months could then start to unravel productively. Though it's probably up to you to untie the knots, at least you may see how and why this needs to be done. Indeed, propelled into action by someone you hardly know but who appears wholly confident that solutions can be found, you might even be ready to face a bitter truth on Friday.

Week Beginning Sunday 9th July 2006
Venus continues to move across the top of your solar chart, and as is true annually, it probably feels as though many doors are opening. 2006 is slightly different in that thanks to a network, you might now be talking to those who're really interested in your ideas AND how these could be developed. The tricky bit over these next few days is that advice from relatives could come under the lines of 'don't give too much away'. Indeed, around Tuesday's Full Moon, a potential alliance could be scuppered by someone who ought to know better. As always, you need to follow your heart: which presently may be cherished by someone who really, really cares. Their input could be invaluable. Indeed, they might convince you that only by freeing yourself from the past can you embrace the future (and they're probably not wrong there!: all of which could lead to an interesting Friday as you consider together how best to share responsibilities and liabilities: essential if you're to move forward together around your birthday.

Week Beginning Sunday 16th July 2006
Your ruling planet continues to be retrograde - and through another sign of the zodiac known for its tendency to worry. This could result in you feeling well and truly frazzled on Tuesday - possibly as a result of a clash with someone who's emotionally volatile on Monday. It could be that this person has been harbouring a grievance or has failed to reveal a problem that's now escalated. It's likely to be midweek before you really get to the bottom of this upset - part of which could revolve around their perception of being undervalued. Crisis talks might not work. It could need a third or even fourth party to help both of you arrive at an equitable solution. A team effort (not necessarily related) could work exceptionally well on Friday though when one of your most keenly held ideals - and your specialist knowledge could make you 'the person to know'.

Week Beginning Sunday 23rd July 2006
Your ruling planet (Mercury) stations next Saturday (29th). Before then it hardly seems to be moving in the sky - and the same might be true of you: at least until Wednesday. Before then, and despite the New Moon and the fresh energy it brings, feeling mired down is likely. Whether that's because you don't have the confidence to move forward or because you've been given a project or item to look after that just feels like too great a weight, the outcome seems to be the same: you might even feel paralysed in case you do the wrong thing. It may be though that your nervous system is catching up and that, on Wednesday particularly, you're in healing over-drive - and so don't have energy available for other things. By late that day, and with friends and relatives who want to celebrate, throwing some caution to the winds might seem a brilliant idea (perfect if you're on holiday and for embracing new experiences). By Saturday your mood is likely to have shifted yet again - this time enabling you to give voice to ideas and plans and enthusing others to join you.

Week Beginning Sunday 30th July 2006
Now that your ruling planet is moving forwards again, you might expect that your plans would gather pace - which, before midweek they may well do. Taking care that a new partnership isn't exhausting you might be wise. That said, the fact that you are thinking differently and testing your comfort zone should probably be seen as a good thing. Making allowance for someone who's either not particularly well or just hasn't got enough experience could be necessary on Thursday. There's the possibility too that on Friday you'll be called to account about a task that wasn't really your responsibility anyway. The good news is that through all this you could prove to yourself and others that you've learnt by experience and are now more focused when you have to be and more adaptable when that's necessary. The fact that you know which behaviour to employ - and when - could amaze someone who thought they knew you well.

Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 7th July 2006
Contact with people you haven't seen in ages is likely on Friday - but could put you under some strain. Though you may not be scheduled to meet for another couple of weeks yet, your worry volume could already be reading 'high'. Anxiety might not diminish until after you've had chance to talk things through with a very old friend on Saturday. What could be interesting in this conversation is that their memory of discussions could be rather different to yours. It's this that might help blow away an incorrect thought that's held you back for too long. Sunday's aspects offer further opportunity to blow away the past and for memories to help you on the way to your future. In the run up to Tuesday's Full Moon your romantic self might even be teased into action - perhaps starting with a little text-flirting and the suggestion of a date for next Friday.

The Weekend of Friday 14th July 2006
Its some years now since Pluto started its slow passage across the base point of your solar chart and it's probable that you're now used to your emotional roots being shaken. You could experience the positive elements of this on Friday when someone from the past returns. True, you could feel vindicated as you learn what someone's been up to. It's perhaps more likely that you'll feel in emotional control and, to a degree, empowered. With Venus and Mars enjoying one of their better aspects on Saturday, what's ignited on Friday could last through Saturday, easing off on Sunday only to give you time to let friends know what's happening. An element of subterfuge could be required next week (you may not want everyone to know all your business), but even so could be enjoying reacquainting yourself with feelings you thought long gone.

The Weekend of Friday 21st July 2006
There's little you respond to better than dialogue that borders on debate. With your brain cells caressed and cajoled on Friday, enthusiasm for a particular relationship could return - despite the fact that you've 'lost' arguments here in the past. You might be just a tad mystified on Saturday though when a certain person doesn't follow through as they'd suggested: once more you could be left dangling. This time it may not be for long - possibly just a few hours - before one or other of you makes a move. This could lead to action on Sunday: and action of the kind you've been waiting for. A mix of the physical with an event that requires you to behave really well, illustrates clearly how versatile you are and what a delight you are to be with. Combining wit with sporting action could put you at the top of someone's league - and possibly lead to an invitation for next Thursday.

The Weekend of Friday 28th July 2006
Your ruling planet arrives at a station on Saturday - and in your friendship zone. Since this event takes place midway between two important aspects involving Venus, there's always the possibility of a curious game of musical chairs taking place. Since friendships often involve 'teams', it may be that you're asked to lead a team or even to change sides. You might also witness allegiances changing. Cupid's arrows seem set to fly off in all directions - far out of your control (stand clear of certain Sagittarius who may be playing with fire!). This could exhaust your delicately balanced nervous system. It might also be fun. In the dating stakes there's all to play for. It's as though the attraction fields around everyone are changed. Expect there to be loads to discuss after this excitement and, on Monday, possibly even to celebrate.

Monthly Horoscope
The Month of July 2006
Your ruling planet is retrograde from 4th to 29th. This does not mean that your finances are about to go backwards or pear-shaped: but it does suggest that you'll be in more reflective mood and that the 'canny' side of you could surface. Though you may feel you know your own mind on 4th, within hours of Mercury's station on 4th, you could feel unsure. (Activity on global markets might even corroborate that there's still too much volatility around). On 6th it might even feel right to do the opposite of what you've agreed thus far. Though this might not endear you to some people, by 14th, it could be that your gut instinct has paid off. Negotiations on 18th could take on new form, and include the added clauses you need. You might feel you're sailing very close the financial wind on 25th but, on 30th, feel that you've taken an educated risk which, this time, will bring fast profit.
