Embrace Your Powerful Month Ahead

The angels of romance may be on your side this month, Pisces, as planets are plucking strings in your 5th house of love. The New Moon in this sector of your chart on July 2 is a reminder of the innocence that invites another to share his or her life with you. It's not required to be especially smart or sophisticated to open the way to more meaningful connections. It's the direct link to your own feelings that will guide you in the right direction. Venus, the planet of attraction, is also in your 5th house until July 12, which tends to place you in a very positive light. There's no need, though, to dress differently or put on a show to get the attention you desire. Being comfortable with yourself is more important that trying to create a new image that doesn't quite fit right.

The Full Moon on July 18 is in practical Capricorn, falling in your 11th house of friends and groups. This can produce a crisis or breakthrough that can shake up your position on a team or with a pal. On the other hand, a supportive individual can remind you how important it is to respect yourself. Instead of giving up too much in the pursuit of love, it's helpful to remember that self-respect is a key ingredient to getting respect from others. Macho Mars is in your 7th house of partnerships all month, which does bring activity. However, while ironing out differences with someone is worthwhile, if he or she is overly critical, it's not necessary to respond to every complaint.
