Calling All Crabs! Special July Birthday Horoscope for Cancers (Love + Life)

Leo

Back up your hard-drive…the safe way. Investigate all possibilities. Do this before the 15th. The same goes for all signs.

Leo rules the heart and the upper back. Look at the Lion’s spine…need I say more on this note? Consider acupuncture this month, have them focus on your back for overall healing. Try not to consume any dead vibrations [meat, processed foods] this month. I know, asking a lion not to eat meat is like asking the lion not to roar. Smiles… But you’re human now, evolved from your lion-animal-life, if you will. Ooo, just saying, or typing, those words: “if you will,” brought me to your key phrase: I Will. Will Power is govern by the heart, Leo’s domain. In a word, well, four: You Can Do It!

It has also been written that Leos were (are) royalty in a past life. You’re ruled by the Sun. So this is highly plausible. For me, anyway.

Mercury Retrograde marks minor to major irritation[s]. A lot of re-doing. The upnote is, this perpetual re-doing forces one to reevaluate; just what the soul needs to correct and mend.

For those that have fellow fire-sign siblings [or even male sibs of any of the other signs], something might occur. Something regarding money or debate or both. I’d say avoid it. As you can tell by now, most of my advise lean towards “detachment,” but here, you may wanna finally settle this unsettling sibling-situation. Just to be finally done with it! If we can’t live in love and balance, at least we can sever-in-love.

Again, reevaluate.

$omething you may have been waiting for could finally arrive. Go on as you were though; keep it movin’.

There could be a sudden transformation in the career center. No fears. Allow this to be your mantra: “I am always safe in the constant changes of life.” Say it with conviction and confidence!

Mid month, socialize more. Make new friends. Ones you wouldn’t mind taggin’ along with or having them tag along with you to a casino. A new friend and a new, or, a casino you’ve never visited before… there’s something with new pals, new money gained in a new setting. These astro-musings come to me in fragments when I’m compiling my notes. Yet, I trust them. Hey, what do you have to lose? If you meet them, the new buddy, and their vibe is right, invite ’em out. If nothing else at all, you two will have a Blast! If they are an Aquarian (or have strong Aquarian energy), all the better.

Your dreams are likely to expand this season. Jot them down soon as you awake. Do this quick, before you lose the images. These images are a source of serious study for you.

By the end of the month, tension with siblings or neighbors or classmates or school faculty or all of thee above is shown. How does the maxim go? “Choose your battles wisely.” What’s the other one? “You don’t have to accept every argument you’re invited to.”

Crystal: The same recommended for Cancer, The Carnelian Merkaba Star

Virgo

Duplicate and back up work.

Whatever you may fear leaking, fear not. It’ll remain hidden…for this period, at least. While it’s safely tucked away in the proverbial locked closet, use this time to reevaluate why you fear it being revealed? How would that revelation alter your way of life as you know it? Secrets are a heavy burden. Why does it feel so heavy for you? Or does it? Why the passage in scripture “And The Truth Shall Set You Free” isn’t applicable here?

Virgo is an organically discriminating and reflective sign, so for you to assess the secret or the hidden, won’t prove to be a painful exercise. Well, it shouldn’t…if you’re heart is open, with yourself. Remember, these are your private thoughts. Journal these analysis for reflection later on.

By mid-month, matters lighten up a bit, especially in the area of work. You’ll expose a rare side of yourself–the charming side. This new you will be sincere and win the attention of key people, especially women. There could be fiery opposition with it comes to making money. Jump that flaming hurdle. Don’t swop embers with them. A waste of time and energy. Take special care to save a lot of funds this month.

Job-related travel, especially abroad, looks promising.

Create something. A pillow, paint a table, something. Just create something beautiful and practical this season.

Libra

If there is an issue in this area, please please get all important documents signed, sealed and delivered by the fifteenth.

You may bump into some former friends. If you choose to re-friend, the newness of the reconnect will probably wear off by mid August; you could wind up with the same ole same ole. If they didn’t wrong you, it may not turn out to be bad, just the same. You decide.

Could even make new friends. If met during the retro period, trust they’re not “new” at all. You were pals in a past life.

Overall, this is a time to weigh and reflect on the science of friendship, period.

Saturn is still in Libra…till October. I know, it’s been grueling, have the Sat Man sit on your Sun. Well, then again, maybe not. If you applied the proper discipline to your temple, maximized this Saturnine Time to your benefit, I know you’re fine. Body ripped, itn’t it? Peace Dock! 🙂

It’s time to be more assertive! Ping pong that Aries side of you from time to time. Libra is the diplomat, this may be a tad uncomfortable, but when applied only when absolutely necessary, you could feel a certain level of validation. Validation you’ve been due for a long long time. Be discerning. Be very discerning before you assert! Make sure it’s a worthy cause.

A great time to write and publish too. Also, travel. Get an astrocartography chart done, to help you choose an apt place to travel to per your current transits. Have fun!

Scorpio

Mars, one of the rulers of your sun sign, your homie, is in your 12th House…with Saturn. Those two sharing the same astro-abode…even for a little while…and in the hidden house, too? Yikes!

Mars fights, expresses, he’s the athlete. He wants to… Needs to… Get Busy!
Saturn restricts. He’s the disciplinarian of the planetary line up. He likes to limit. Mars doesn’t like to be limited. How these two get along (really the happenings going on in your psyche) is up to you.

But I’ll advise. The very purpose of astrology columns.

Mentally, it’s like being in stop and go traffic but you’re aching to S P E E D!

Exercise:

Get an acupuncture treatment, request the “Shining Sea” stick. You want to see the real you during this time. Buy some Lavender Essential Oil, burn some in an oil burner, add a little distilled water to the top, so it doesn’t burn too quickly. Also, massage a little on your temples and pineal gland. Then Write! Yes, write it out. Open all closets during these writing bouts. Just trust me, it’s a 12th House thing. I do the same when I wanna write deeply; write from the hidden recesses in me.

Note: You cannot think that opening all the closet doors in your rest is bugged out for the spiritual exercise to be effective. You really gotta “feel” it! See it as sigil for you and your stuff to finally come out of the proverbial closet. This is… if you are ready? If not, stay home a lot…if you can. ‘Cause the likeliness of you SPOUTING something in a Forced Tactless Way to the wrong party is HIGHLY LIKELY.

Do you see why I beg you to write it out instead?

You may feel very frustrated with these conflicting energies inside you. It’ll pass. The constellations stay moving. This “stagnant thing” is a human thing. ‘Darn gravity!

Try to get in any job interviews by the 15th. I worry about you signing anything major thereafter. Ask them if you can finish up the paperwork after August 10th? Smiles… Yeah, I know, Fat Chance!

Just be aware. Cosmically-Aware of what you put your John Hancock to. Gooogle up the Writ of Signatures. Remember, “signature” equates to “signing your nature.”
A freebee. Again, cause the fam is small back here [for now], I’m moor given to share.

By mid-month, some kind of GREAT HOT SEX, or a Win-fall, or an inheritance of some kind. Some kind of luck via someone else. Align up with this grand energy NOW. Be subtle Scorpion. Listen to Big Daddy Kane’s “Smooth Operator,” especially the part where he raps: “…then I calm down, cause I’ma smooth operator.”

With the sex… Remember your sun sign rules sex. Sex is very powerful. It creates a holographic imprint of the other person, in YOU, and vice versa, YOURS in them. It creates a soul-tie. Dr. Delbert Blair has great video on this topic on youtube. Please be mindful of this POWER before engaging.

Casual anything is not a Scorpion virtue, why allow “sex” to be? Feel me?

*A co-worker could be plotting to beef, set it off with you. Scorpio is the Eagle. A massive bird of prey. How one of the main predators in sky gonna allow itself to be preyed on? Stay Woke!

“Accidents” came up at the work site or a work site of some kind. This may sound ironic, but you may have to abort your normal routine to avoid a vocational mishap. I know you’re a fixed sign, change is hard, but the change may serve your senses well. ‘Cause right now the energies of feeling trapped could largely be due to doing the same ole same ole, all the time. The agony of monotony.

Sagittarius

Travel anytime after mid-month to around August 10th could have some glitches for The Archer. A better season for you to also pen a book. Look into e-books. Share the work far and wide.
Re-examine your priorities.
Watch that sweet tooth (if you have one, if not, good).
Meet new people. Network.
Push passed your comfort zone.
A makeover will be fun and due! Relish the new look.

Capricorn

Watch your losses. Hopefully you’re not a gambler. If by chance [no pun], you are, chill out for a season.
Work life should improve. Coffee, conversation and a cupcake with a co-worker was seen. Do not turn such an invite down. Or, extend one.
This person could possibly tell you about a new job prospect. Or share a lead.

For you too Capricorn, there could be some kind of disruption in the home. You can preempt this by communicating with all parties. Civil discourse is likely, providing it’s held by mid-month. After that a lot of back-dated suppressed stuff could spout. Which…not for nothing, may be needed. I just don’t want words to escalate to the point it debilitates all reasoning.

You as well, watch what you sign.

After the fifteenth, journal your career musings. Study your field of desire. If calculated cosmically correct, this could really be the season to gain the prominence your deserve.

Aquarius

Possible, Probable Miscommunication with partner[s] or known detractors. Rethink these relationships. Rethink what the word “relationship” connotes: Ship = Direction. Re-late.

After much lucid re-thinking (certainly the season to do it), a great resolve, Re-Solve, should show itself.

You may wanna change the way you communicate this Summer, all together. Seven Days of Silence is a Powerful Healing exercise. Or, don’t speak till after noon for twenty-one days. Try to avoid internet communications. Tell no one you’re doing this. Watch how much sacred data come to you.

Back up work too. Be careful with Scams and Spam.

Third week shows some serious discordant activity. If you’re fasting from talking, you shouldn’t be affected. Claim plenty of “Me-Time.”

Good season for your business; or start one (before the 15th or after the 11th of August).

Sex for you, this Summer, Mr. and Ms. Water Bearer, looks heightened and hot! But to do so while fasting could corrupt your spiritual effort. Unless… they’re (you’re partner) is also fasting from speaking; you know, they are spiritual in their own right.

Study foreign laws, international customs. Even if you’re not
into this field of knowing, it came up that you should, just for a season anyway, be clued-in to something in this area. Once you start reading, it may just jump out at ya!

Pisces

Get all the vital things, vital business things, out the way this week! If you can.

Most Pisceans are artistic and already ain’t fond of the structured nine to five type of vocation. But this season, work may show to be a-OK with you. Take your vacation after the eleventh of August, if at all possible.

Action yet discipline is shown in the eighth. It’ll be there for a couple of months. Now’s the time to Transform. Join a gym. Or, just workout at home. Be dedicated. Great results will follow if you dedicate, seriously apply yourself.

After last month’s busy’ness in the home, this season the home looks quite prosperous. Air out all rooms. Sprinkle baking soda and lavender essential oil on your mattresses. Allow to sit in for a spell, then vacuum it–yes, the mattress. Wipe walls down with ammonia. Burn sage and or sandlewood incense.
Bring new life in. Suggestions: plants, fish (small ones, biG tank), puppy, etc.
Home life read sweet for you Mr. and Ms. Fish. Enjoy/In-Joy It! 🙂

Quiet your mind and really question who’s around you and why? If you like the response that come…Keep them. If you don’t, well… you decide.

Third Week: Play a game of Chance. Keep a piece of garlic in your left pocket. Have someone, you trust and admire, wash your feet with their dreds. Using liquid peppermint soap, in a beach or river, all the better.

I know…just flow wit’ it. For a Pisces, usually Game! Down wit’ it! You mutable Fun Souls You!

Aries

A great time to extend love to your sisters. If you have none, extend it to someone’s sister. I mean “love” in the wholesome, platonic sense. Not romantic love here. And do it with no desire for reciprocation. Reciprocity is divine, I know, due to the balance it projects, but… Just trust… Give with no desire for recompense and watch what occurs later on… It’ll Re-Turn when you least expect it. Making the love largess all the moor magnificent!

Help others.

Visit a craft store, buy some things you like. Create pretty useful pieces. If you create in a park with children, all the better.

Issues with communications. Particularly, legal communication. Aries, you too, back up work. Be mindful of scams and spam.

Tension with a Capricorn (or Capricorn-like energy) is noted. Re-evaluate the business. Remember, Capricorn is a business entity. You two are or tend to be very ambitious. And you’re both Cardinal. This can be worked out, you think too much alike. Then again…that can be the problem. Opposites attract, Likes repel.
Between the fifteenth of this month and the eleventh of next month, I’d just avoid them. Tell ’em you’re on vacation. Smile.

In lighter, or shall I say, sexier news. That Leo. Yeah, the time has come! A Leo[s] from your past, even more steamier. I highly advise booking a room at a casino for the weekend; or, a couple of weekdays. Not only is passionate connecting shown for you two this season, but also “winnings” of some kind—providing you two are gambling in tandem.

Anyone with a Leo rising or moon, still applicable.

Taurus

Claim time for self to contemplate. It’s looks to be an emotional stretch for The Bull. Write a short memoir, just covering the last six years of your life. Work from home. Title it “6,” if you like. No, I won’t come after you to sue. Smiles…

The number Six is ruled by Venus as is your Sun Sign. Also Six means Sex. Not profane, just learned. You can look it up for yourself. Again, it shouldn’t be your book’s title due to the act of sex in the sense one may immediately assume. I know that the same entities that govern sex also govern transformation.

Writing is therapeutic. It can transform pain to healed just in a couple of paragraphs. Don’t worry about grammar or spelling or any of that. A good editor can weed all of that out later. Just sit, type, HEAL.

Most memoirs date back to childhood. Yours will just be dated six years back. Do you see the appeal with such chronological uniqueness. Gosh, I must love my readers. Smiles…

You, as well, investigate the e-book possibilities. Your $econd house looks juicy, hydrate your pockets. Your cosmic birth right, really.

If you embrace this literary exercise. Refrain from sharing it with any Aries or Aquarians till its done.

Post a picture of your favorite Gemini around your computer. You know L-Boogie is my choice.

Gemini

Research. Repairs. Reparations. Back up work. Completion.

Help those less fortunate.

Watch co-workers, especially Sagittarius and Pisces. Don’t get taken! Stay Woke!

The mid-chuck of the month, your already natural charm dials up exponentially. Treat yourself to a nice purchase (not a major one) to complement this sweet newness in energy. “New” energy during a retro-period makes for a certain yin/yang state that’s pure magick. Share “you” with worthy loved ones at this time. It could activate healing in them.

A long overdue BLOW UP with a long-standing friend is also shown (or an abrupt parting from a group/organization). Don’t mar your surplus of charm. You know my constant advise: D e t a c h
If you absolutely must, deal with them post Mercury Retrograde.

Good time to plan a wedding. Or, take a wedding planning course/workshop.

Earning potential is shown by month’s end. Tauruses and or Librans aid here. Or the sale of some kind of Taurus and or Libra product.

Gemini, if interested, send some strong love for our fellow Twin, Lauryn. My heart really goes out to her during this trying time.
