Star Struck: July

By Virgina Bell

Again we peer into the heavens to find what your month will bring.

CANCER June 22—July 22
Compassionate Cancers are the mums and dads of the zodiac, but you folks can also hide out behind that role. Thanks to the new moon in your sign on the 2nd, this is your power time--hence, it wouldn't hurt to be a little selfish for once. Red-hot Mars in your house of communication encourages you to assert yourself. The only thing scarier than asking for what you want is actually getting it. Imagine?


Check out the entire Zodiac after the jump.

LEO July 23—August 22
Like Obama and Madonna (both Leos) you know how to shine in public (the hair, the smile, the good kicks). What people don't realize is how hard you really work, especially lately. Once Venus moves into Leo on the 12th followed by the sun on the 22nd and Mercury on the 26th, you've got a month of pure pleasure. Take advantage of this window--it won't last forever.

VIRGO August 23—September 22
You've got passionate Mars in your sign beginning July 1st and a gorgeous new moon in your social 11th house on the 2nd. You're also obsessing about what's going to happen when the Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012 (don't worry—you're not the only one). Did you ever consider that worrying is a way of avoiding life? Read Be Here Now (the spiritual bible of the '70s). There's a line in it that says (oh yeah, it's a little cheesy), "I ACCEPT THE HERE AND NOW." Cheesy or not, that's your new mantra.

LIBRA September 23—October 23
No matter how much you change, evolve, or transform, it takes forever for family, friends, and co-workers to pick up on your new vibe. Four planets in your public 10th house signals a new chapter in your career (it's a long time coming, no doubt about it). You don't necessarily have to change your name or identity, but you need to do something dramatic to get the world's attention. Start thinking Big. You'll see. It works.

SCORPIO October 24—November 21
Two years ago astronomers demoted your ruler, Pluto, to a dwarf planet (we know, WTF?). Rest assured, Pluto couldn't care less; the publicity has been great. Like Pluto (and fellow Scorpio Hilary Clinton) you're a survivor, so don't waste energy on bad reviews and public opinion. What happens on the 14th puts you back in the game in a far stronger position. Trust us, you'll be laughing all the way to the bank.

SAGITTARIUS November 22—December 21
Thanks to the new moon on the 2nd and the full moon on the 18th both in your wealth houses, you're due for some major windfalls and bonuses. Unfortunately, your ruler, grandiose Jupiter gets frisky with several planets giving you a sense of false confidence and recklessness. Do not follow your feelings; in fact, do the opposite. Work hard, stay out of trouble, and bank that green for something more substantial than some Acne jeans.

CAPRICORN December 22—January 19
A deer with a single horn in the middle of his head was spotted recently in a nature preserve near Florence, Italy (no shit), proving that the fabled unicorn is not simply a myth. Good news for realistic Caps who require hard evidence to believe in miracles. The lush new moon in your house of true love on the 2nd brings that mythic soul mate you've been longing for. Drop the tired cynicism and start believing.

AQUARIUS January 20—February 18
You know you're in trouble when you keep watching Thelma and Louise and fantasizing about driving off a cliff in a 1966 Thunderbird convertible. Maybe you don't need to do something that extreme. The new moon in your house of health on the 2nd suggests it's time to give up sugar, the smokes, or that old mattress (too many crappy memories). Can it be that simple? Maybe, but why not give it a try. The results might well impress you.

PISCES February 19—March 20
This time next month you'll feel like the butterfly looking down at an old caterpillar body and wondering what all the fuss was about. Thanks to "expect the unexpected" Uranus in your sign getting personal with sexy Venus on the 6th, the sun on the 14th, and clever Mercury on the 22nd something new and exciting is about to begin (a romance, a baby, or a fab new creative project). Take a deep breath and spread your wings&mdashtime to fly and see what's out there.

ARIES March 21—April 19
Sure, you'd like to be hiding out in Kenya or Wyoming, but it's not in the cards. Your ruler, Mars, enters efficient Virgo on the 1st; any additional job training will enhance your value at work and be rewarded on the 26th when someone in authority perks up and notices. Meanwhile, rent sexy films with exotic locales like Casablanca and The Beach. Once the eclipse hits on August 1st, the fun cranks into gear.

TAURUS April 20—May 20
Fellow Taurus Catherine the Great loved rich food, good wine, and young dudes--but she was at her desk early every morning with a double-shot running the empire. Translation: Enjoy all the romantic and social opportunities this month, but don't slack off. Supposedly, Catherine used a pound of coffee to brew just four cups. Do whatever it takes (caffeine, cardio, or a 21-day cleanse) to stay focused; you're too close to nailing a major goal.

GEMINI May 21—June 21
The great Meher Baba was performing in a play when someone in the audience threw a rock at him and knocked him out cold. When he came to he realized he wasn't an actor but an enlightened master. From the 6th to the 22nd, your ruler, Mercury, makes some exciting aspects, which means you could suddenly wake up to your life's purpose. But you can't just hang out at Smith & Mills waiting for it to hit you. So, make it happen.
