Conjunction in Virgo
There’s much to be accomplished with the conjunction of Mercury and Venus in Virgo, and no need to be overly serious in approach as it all will get done with the simple intention of applying ourselves. The retrograde points out the absurdity of many tasks, and the work gets lighter when we lean into it. Silliness is a secret weapon — a tool of connection and enchantment.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). For you to agree to something new, it needs to be an exciting enough idea for you to drop everything else you’ve got going on to take advantage of it. Unless it’s irresistible, the best option will be the polite “no” that allows you to conserve your energy.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll give your dear ones what they ask for as long as it’s within your control. The problem is that’s hard to know. You have to try first. The trick is to underpromise, so if/when anything happens, it’s a delight.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). One or two new people on the scene is all it takes to change everything. Someone’s smile is the zephyr that makes clouds disappear; the edges of life seem to sparkle when they’re around, an indication that this is special.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What’s better than having all the answers? Having a good reason to collaborate. Wherever there are people needing people, there is a chance to build the astounding creation that could never be made by one.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Work will pay off. New projects will ascend. Until then, just believe. To surrender to faith and optimism is to surrender to a sense of peace that will give you ease as well as better and more energy.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You want to brighten someone’s day, and you will — just not the person you thought. You never know who you influence just by being you. Stay true to your essence and let your light shine. In time, all will be revealed.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sensitive issues come into the open. Should they be explored or just tolerated? You might be surprised at whose feelings can blow up on a hair trigger. Tolerance is an oft-underrated virtue.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). From weather in the sky to differences in a workflow or micro-expressions that flicker across the face of friends, the more you notice, the keener your intuition gets. It’s all about curiosity and the ability to stay in the moment.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). As Shakespeare said, “The course of true love never did run smooth.” Even in times when you think it’s going smoothly, there is hot lava burbling inside. But if you stay far from the danger zone, you’ll have the best of all worlds.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People need to feel needed. Being essential in someone’s world motivates you to do things you wouldn’t otherwise have to. This is how you get strong and become an improved version of yourself.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There are those who are closed off to the possibility they might have gotten something wrong. Not you. When new experiences fly in the face of what you previously thought to be true, you adjust quickly. Being a fast learner will pay off this week.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The work is more fun than the fun. There’s nobility in it, too. Also, you’ll love how a task can change you. To devote yourself to the aim not only tends to accomplish a goal but it also uncovers the deeper aspects of your character.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 7). You’ll claim what’s inherently yours, and there will be no doubt in you about what that is. Your voice has powerful resonance, and you’ll cut through the world’s chaos and demands with your truth. More highlights: You’ll get more effective command of your time. Your schedule will become increasingly aligned with your passions and priorities. This is the “you” you always wanted to be. Sagittarius and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 3, 11, 5 and 10.
