Taurus: Forecast for July 2001

(NOTE: if you know your rising sign, read that sign too, for a balanced forecast. Go to Forecasts)

Express Yourself

The Full Moon and Eclipse on July 5th may bring your ideas and opinions before the scrutiny of others. You may be making an important announcement or decisions during this time. Changes in your feelings and opinions and could impact your relationships with your siblings and neighbors. Many of you will begin a new line of study or increase the time you spend working in your community. There is such a strong focus on your third house of communication this month that I recommend you keep a detailed daily planner to avoid missing important activities. On July 22nd, the Sun shines light on your fourth house of home and family, urging you to spend more time at home with your loved ones. More about the Eclipse.

Chit Chat

You may be focused on money making for the first 12 days of July, but once Mercury enters Cancer and your third house of communication, you will be more interested in chitchat! The more you talk, the more energized you should feel. Even the introverted among you will enjoy socializing more than usual... in fact, you might even find that your neighbors make good company. After July 30th, the Winged Messenger alights in your fourth house of home and family, sending you on a trip down memory lane.

Good Fortune

Lovely Venus increases your popularity until July 5th, helping you to be more successful. This is a great time to ask for favors and to seek prominent positions as others are inclined to assist you. After the 5th, Venus enters versatile Gemini and your second house of finances, helping to increase your income but also increasing the amount you want to spend. Get control over your resources early in the month to avoid a shopping spree hangover later. You'll want to be generous to others and giving is one of the best things you can do with your income, but make sure you don't make promises that you cannot keep.

Mars Direct

Aggressive Mars turns direct in your eighth house of sex, money, and power on July 19th, increasing your natural levels of desire. The best use of this energy is shared passion with your most significant other, but too often this energy is wasted on needless debates and arguments over money. You may see a power struggle coming to a dramatic conclusion at this time, so be prepared to accept the results of your actions. If you have issues that need to be addressed involving sex or shared finances, you may not be able to escape a confrontation. On the positive side, this is a time of breakthroughs, so do not hesitate to move forward! Read more on Retrograde Mars.

Generous and Optimistic

Generous and optimistic Jupiter enters your third house of communication on July 13th, beginning a year of expansion for you. You may find that you are busier than ever as neighbors and siblings become more important in your life. As Mercury fans Jupiter's fire this month, you can expect to be returning e-mail and phone calls as activity increases. You might want to screen your calls if you are having trouble getting any work done. Your thoughts and opinions demand air time as well, so consider starting a daily journal.

Jul 20: Communications

The Moon is in her favorite house of Cancer today, so the focus is on communication. Try to home in on the feelings underlying what's being said, rather than just hearing the words.

Jul 26: Love and Money

Jul 27: Both Sides of the Fence

Jul 28: Primary Focus

Give your full attention to matters of partnership today, whether it be to your nearest and dearest or to close associates with whom you have strong ties.

It's no good just trying to get someone to do what you think is right. Be focused but flexible. Inspiring colors are indigo and pale yellow. Lucky numbers are 10 and 18.

Jul 29: Uneven Flow

The day starts on something of an erratic note from Lady Moon's tension with revolutionary Uranus. Things might be out of kilter.

However, they could lead you down the road of deep thoughts and insightful realizations as Lady Moon moves into Sagittarius as the morning progresses. Harmonious colors are terracotta and rich brown. Lucky numbers are 8 and 16.

Jul 30: Wait a Day or Two

With the Sun in Leo opposing mystic Neptune, it may be difficult to see straight with matters of work and responsibility. Stresses or emotional difficulties make you indecisive. Others offer confusing or misleading signals. You may be tired or unable to find the right balance between home and work. Let a day or two go by, then reorganize your thinking. Composed colors are dusky green and russet red. Lucky numbers are 3 and 21.

Jul 31: Domestic Communications

Mercury in Leo places a focus on communications with regard to matters of home, family and emotions over the next three weeks. Get in there with your loved ones so you are talking and listening, expressing your feelings and hearing those of others. If matters of repair or improvement need to be attended to, get on with the action. Prosperous colors are champagne and coral pink. Lucky numbers are 2 and 26.
