The most exciting news this July concerns your career and public reputation! You are about to see these lift to a whole new level, with major changes occurring mid-July.
From Thursday, July 8, you can expect a huge broadening of your professional horizons, with many more choices made available to you.
Voila! You will have arrived.
And you will stop trying to please. This takes over your life sometimes, dear Libra. You give and give and give and give. I addressed this, at some length, in your April Horoscope. Please read it over. It is still true for this month, and ongoing.
With a certain person, all you do is please. When attacked, you turn even more pleasing - it's like playing possum, you in the position of dead pleasing.
Someone is feeling threatened by you - secretly - and so, ever so subtly, attacks you. This could be a close friend of yours. Well - thank goodness, this ceases mid-July. But this comes about by your acting more assertive, sharing when you feel uncomfortable.
In other words, you're just going to talk about it. The next time you have lunch with him or her. Please make a mental note.
Attached Libras, there has also been tension at home with your partner and this significantly shifts at the end of June. Again, you just talk about it.
You also relax about your career mid-July, as it improves significantly. This area has been giving you anxiety for some time. Ah, finally, Libra, some relief!
This is due to the solar eclipse new Moon in Cancer on Sunday, July 11, along with a showering of blessings, all in your tenth house of professional acclaim.
Remember that the eclipses, which are very powerful, begin acting as soon as three days before the actual date, and extend to three days after the actual date, so get ready for Thursday, July 8 to Wednesday, July 14 as the time for this to actually occur.
What ensures a positive happening (eclipses signify changes: they can be either positive or negative) is the beneficial bodies also in your tenth house of career and reputation at this time.
They are: the almighty creator Sun, adoring Juno, and brilliant Mercury after Friday, June 25.
As Mercury rules speaking, writing, the internet and publishing, you will be soaring in these areas from June 25 through July. What you say will be really, REALLY listened to - so think about what you want to say or write or publish!
In work meetings, in your book, on the internet - on Facebook or your blog - on TV - or any other area where you express yourself.
As they say, be careful of what you wish for...the effects will be long and far-reaching.
But before this, there is another eclipse! And this is in the most personal area of your chart - in your fourth house.
This occurs this Saturday, June 26, and is a lunar eclipse and full Moon in Capricorn. Because Pluto retrograde is also in your fourth house and Pluto rules transformations, not all of them pretty, this signifies a change that will feel more disturbing than the change in your career mid-July.
Remember, change is traumatic in its very nature. Even when it is the best thing in the world.
And this is good! You break an old routine - one that's become very old - and do something like get out of the house to go swimming; bring a new piece of furniture into the home; someone moves in or out; or you reach resolution with a member of your family.
That's a big one. Or, you finally reach satisfactorial negotiations about a property. Or you settle a bet with your brother. Or a bill has to be paid that disturbs your feeling of security.
Your area of home or family transforms. It is quite miraculous, but uncomfortable at the same time. It is thrilling though - like Pluto, King of the Underworld, who drags Persephone by her hair down to his kingdom from Earth.
The story was, he was madly in love with her. Obsessed with her. But it wasn't easy for Persephone, who, although she genuinely loved Pluto, missed her mother, and the earth.
Read the whole story - it's long and wonderful and just the best, most poetic kind of story. Persephone, Diameter, Pluto, look any of them up.
What I am trying to say - by way of metaphor and including an ancient Greek myth - is that it will be a miracle, but not without its discomorts.
You're strong, dear Libra. Even though you act like the Princess and the Pea - and most of you have partners who will dote on you and spoil you - and you faint at the earliest wrinkle - I see you can get through this one.
This will not bruise you. Like the pea did to the princess under sixteen feather mattresses. Placed there strategically by the prince's mother.
You will get through it fine. It's just that that one or more of these areas - your home, early family, property - will transform to a whole new level.
Remember that in eclipse language this could happen any time between Wednesday, June 23 and Tuesday, June 29. So get ready. Fasten your seat belt.
I have focused on the two eclipses, and now I am going to focus on Saturn. The taskmaster who moves into Libra on Wednesday, July 21.
I'm sure you've heard stories...how harsh Saturn can be. But Saturn in Libra is a beneficient placement. Good things come out of it, like more security in the self, long-term plans being implemented, finally producing your masterpiece.
And it feels more comfortable than say, in Virgo, where Saturn has just been.
That placement creates emotionally difficulty, and you've been having a weeping time of it. (I know, I'm a Libra, too.) This will be over completely by July 21, although it begins ceasing more immediately.
Saturn proceeds majestically, and has already started his train, so you will feel effects of it - crying will go away - starting considerably before July 21. As I said, pretty immediately. It has been a hard time.
Saturn, finally, when all is said and done, makes you grow up. And growing up is all about discipline. Doing the things you don't want to do, and not doing the things you do want to do.
Because the first house rules the body - and your looks - you will also really, really get it together about how to take care of yourself.
Yoga. Meditation. Therapy. Cleanses. Quitting destructive habits - like worry.
Growing up. This is the final piece of your puzzle, dear Libra, and the one which your baby unconscious has been resisting.
You can still be a beautiful princess and play - or pine - but you will have a grownup to look after her. You will be able to completely trust yourself to look after yourself and protect yourself after Saturn passes through your sign.
It is a two year plus transit, lasting until October 2012. You will clear up all your unfinished business.
You will finally have all your ducks in a row.
Considerable accomplishments. Congratulations, Libra. You will enjoy yourself immensely.
Dear Libra, would you like to learn how to be psychic for yourself - and for others? I will be teaching how to at the Learning Annex in mid-Manhattan on Wednesday, July 14 from 6:45 PM to 9:30 PM. I would so love the opportunity to - finally! - meet you in person, and to share my greatest love with you, palmistry.
Palmistry is where I receive my most powerful insights - yes, even more than astrology - and the channel through which I conduct all my private readings.
Palmistry is fascinating - do you know the lines on your hands change every three weeks? - and, for me, allows for more healing (the primary purpose of a reading, I believe) than any other discipline I've ever encountered. I love it!
Please allow me to share this with you and to open your soul - and future - to a whole new level!
Click here for more information, and to register online. (Get $10 off - the class would then only be $34.95 - by entering the coupon code SUMMER.) You can also call the Learning Annex directly at 212-371-0280.
I hope to see you there and to finally meet you in person!
For private readings over the phone: If you are feeling shy, or have never had a reading before, read these comments from readees.
Call 212-631-5844 for your reading.
Or 415-267-6175.
I look forward to reading you, dear Libra.
