Sun-Sign Forecast

July 23 through August 22, 2022

Leo
Happy Birthday, Leo! Have you ever looked closely at a busy sidewalk after a rain when the snails come out? Not a pretty sight. Confidence is not enough (for both the snails and humans); we also need clarity. But I believe in you, Leo. With your sun in its own sign this month, your outer brilliance is second only to your inner shine. Light up the world, Simha!

Virgo
You can be a world-beater this month, Virgo, but not with a big stick. Spend some time with yourself and you will rediscover a beautiful aspect — your ability to serve the world. Follow your charitable brilliance with your pocketbook and you will open a door you didn’t realise was there. 

Libra
Your ability to generate income has always occupied a significant place in your thoughts. This month, you can help make it real by spending time with successful people. If you don’t know any, that’s okay. Go to where they hang out. Rubbing shoulders, like rubbing sticks, is the first step toward a roaring blaze.

Scorpio
Can you put your tendency toward activity to an advantage? Yes! Where else but in right action. This month, the sun is telling you to do what’s right. And guess what, Scorpio? That means first being kind toward yourself. Then, discover a better connection to work by being honest with yourself. Do you really want to spend the rest of your life doing what you are doing? Maybe yes, maybe no… the choice is yours.

Sagittarius
Nature is calling you, Sagittarius! Do you hear it’s call and if you do, will you answer? It’s that wild thing inside you that speaks of ancient times dancing ’round the fire, under the stars. And who might be there dancing with you but the Lord of Abundance and Prosperity… 

Capricorn
Do you ever hear whispers in the middle of a warm August night coming to you on the wings of a gentle breeze through an open window? They call for you, Capricorn, but fear not for they are the cry of your own heart, the yearning to find a deeper meaning to it all. This month is your chance. You’ll find it ‘far from the maddening crowd’…

Aquarius
The potential of relationships is seldom realised because we are too busy trying to get something rather than give. Be warned, however, for even giving can have a selfish intent behind its rosy facade. The sun in Leo shines a light on your relationships so you can see the truth to what it is you bring to others. No matter what you discover, know that your potential is unlimited beauty.

Pisces
Compassion and empathy have always been strong points. This month, get a sense of what you mean to others by bringing resolution to their troubles. In the process you’ll discover how health and healing form two sides of your equilateral triangle representing the world. The third side? Selfless service of which you have an abundance. This month, step out into the world and shine your light!

Aries
Do you feel the urge to pick up a paintbrush and create a masterpiece? What about finishing that novel you started but never finished? Never even began? No worries. But please do something creative this month, Aries. Big or small, good, bad, or ugly, you’ll find that it’s not the bark of the dog that matters, but its bite. So stop barking and take a bite. No, not out of your neighbour, Aries — out of Life! You’ll find the taste is habit forming.

Taurus
What’s the difference between house and home, Taurus? Simple enough: a house refers to space (bricks and mortar) and home refers to place (emotional connection). But O my! How confused we become. Let place guide you and space is sure to follow. And the place to start? With yourself. This month, you have a chance to really see what it is that makes you tick. Hint: it is not home and family. Confused? Good. Confusion is the first step toward knowing.

Gemini
There is a blazing fire burning within you this month, a fire of desire. But it’s a strange fire: the more fuel you add, the less it burns. Better to simply let it burn with no intention. What you will discover is that what you have been seeking is not really what you want. There in the ashes sits the object of your desire, a golden wish-fulfilling nugget that needed fire to burn away the dross. Let the fire reveal what it is you really want.

Cancer
You eloquence reaches new heights this month. Whether it bloats your ego or does the world a world of good depends upon whether you bathe it in compassion and season it with humility. I think the latter is your destiny for no other reason than I trust you. Don’t make me eat my words, Cancer; I have eleven other signs to dine on. ?

(June 21 through July 20, 2022)

Cancer
You already know you are an emotional and sensitive being. The challenge comes in channeling high-energy emotions like anger, impatience, and jealousy into life-promoting activities. Fortunately, you get a strong boost this month to do just that as your Jupiter and Mars are influencing your work and income. Been feeling a bit under-appreciated in these departments? Now’s the time to take your stand.

Leo
O my! The lioness within you seems a bit sheepish this month… or is it that she really is a lamb inside? Like the reference to Christ in Revelations:5-6, you are both the conquering spirit and the sacrificial lamb this month. No worries! It is only your smallness that is being sacrificed. Only by seeing the world with soft eyes do we discover our true greatness.

Virgo
Income and finances seem to be on your mind. This month, find others who share your dreams and take that next step. In the meantime, offer your time to a community project and watch the wonderful response you get not only from others, but from yourself. Watch out! It may become habit forming. 🙂

Libra
Libra is the sign associated with the stage of life where we seek out relationships only to discover that “finding the one” is not enough. This month, direct the energy of relationship toward your workplace. There’s a chance for you to ‘make your mark’ and both you and your colleagues will be better off because of it. Right action brings right results.

Scorpio
Teacher, teacher, I do declare; I see someone’s… remember this childhood rhyme? Scorpios like you have a natural ability to see things others cannot. However, even the master was once a student. This month, look for a teacher to help you attain what you have been yearning for. You may have to travel to find it.

Sagittarius
Ah! The sweetness of emotion… it brings so much! This month, open your heart to the sweetness of emotion and comb the depths of the mystical. Sagittarius is symbolised by the centaur: half human and half horse. Throw yourself into nature not as a distraction, but as a stepping stone across the stream of attachments that keep you limited. What you’ll find is what you are: Love.

Capricorn
There is a bell ringing in the belfry, but not the one in your neighbourhood house of worship. It’s the one within you and it’s calling you to attend the Church of your Higher Reason. This month, there is a chance of handing over your willpower to others; the more intimate the relationship, the more challenging to overcome. However, Capricorn, I trust your ability to stand your ground through your in-born ability to see through the charade.

Aquarius
This month, there is an uptick of possibility that you may be asked to help someone in need. This is fortunate for the other person because you are a natural healer. Just remember, healing is not always concerned with the body; a wayward mind often needs a shoulder to cry on, and a troubled heart a soothing word. You are up to the task to offer both.

Pisces
Romance is in the air! Or is it your artistic talents? Perhaps it’s even your inner child attracting children to you like the Pied Piper. In fact, it is all of these. This month, take advantage of your openness to explore the beauty of emotion. Smile at the neighbour! Hug a tree! Sing a song! I guarantee the birds will sing back. 

Aries
Aries, you have always been known for your sharp intellect and your courage, but this month, you are being asked to explore something a bit more challenging: your gentle side. Regarding the world through “soft eyes”, you will discover a hidden strength: emotion. Love, gratitude, and compassion holds the key you have been seeking.

Taurus
Expressing emotion has always been a mixed bag; on the one hand, the strength of your expression is second to none, on the other, it stays in a box. This month, you have the opportunity to take the bull by the horns and discover how emotion is tied to your capacity to fulfil your desires. What you’ll discover along the way is that the quality of your emotion matches the quality of what you choose to experience and guess what? This is the secret to a joyful life.

Gemini
Have you noticed something interesting about your life? Your capacity to fulfil desire is related to your capacity to communicate those desires not only to others, but to yourself. Make this a joyful process and you will have found the key to manifestation. It’s not the fulfilment of desire that makes you joyful, though, it’s the discovery of the power TO fulfil desire — and that makes you feel good, really good.
