YOUR STARS

(THURSDAY, 12 JULY 2018)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – You will finally be able to straighten out a matter that has been giving rise to tension. There are always lessons to be learned from what has happened; do not fail to do so. Do be prepared to do your friends a favor; if you do you can always anticipate they will repay you to the same degree. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – The situation is about to change for the better – don’t do anything to spoil it. You will have a great idea but you will not be able to convince others of its merits just now. Something that at first does not seem to have many possibilities will on further perusal prove to be more viable. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You will be a little more vulnerable than of late and should try to leave as little a possible to chance. Try to have more faith in yourself and do not blindly trust others. Time is indeed short, but a little time spent now for being tidy will save a lot of time later. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – You will not get all you want, but you should make the best of what you have gained. Make it a point to spend a little more time getting the principles behind what you are doing; it will be well worth the effort. You will be able to draw a past experience to help you avoid repeating a mistake. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – You should make sure that you are facing the facts and do not pretend even to yourself. There is a tendency to get bored easily so seize every opportunity to keep your interest alive and develop a new interest. Do not try to get the better of your associates; see if you can cooperate with them instead. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – You will now be in the right mood to tackle a problem but you must try to be most methodical about it. Do not delay a decision you have been avoiding any longer but do first consult with your partner or business associate, whoever is involved. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – If may help you to know certain results before proceeding but do not wait too long. There is more beneath the surface than meets the eye, so do not trust to appearances. This is not the right time to discuss with your partner a controversial matter; try to leave it for a few more days. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – You will easily tire and not everything will be as simple as it first appeared. Though it might seem easier to make some shortcuts, in all but a few cases, it is better to do things thoroughly. It will take something of an effort to do what has to be done now and you have the willpower needed so apply it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – It will not be possible for you to overcome a small difficulty at present and so you will just have to learn to live with it. Try to correct mistakes as you spot them rather than waiting until you have completed a particular task; then you will have to go over them again. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – You will have the will to do what has to be done and therefore find the way to do so. Take good advice and when giving advice, make sure you know what you are talking about. If you are aware of a problem, do not wait to be asked for help by a member of your family. Offer it gratuitously. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You should not be afraid to express your opinions only you should do so discreetly. Always listen carefully to what others are saying; there is a grave danger of misunderstanding. For the sake of your health, do your best to avoid excessive tension and make sure you get enough rest. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Your situation is quite straightforward only you must make sure you do not go on any sort of spending spree. Some things will not go quite as you wished, but do not let that perturb you; things scarcely ever do. You will now be able to reconcile with a colleague with whom you have recently quarreled.
