Horoscopes
ARIES
Grab the bull by the horns. Your strong leadership abilities and quick thinking can help turn difficult situations into something resoundingly positive this week. Your charisma and confidence will attract others to join your cause.
If you rest, you could rust. Flex those muscles by keeping busy and active or you may find yourself with little energy to face the week ahead. Accept invitations to get out and about, as lounging about the house will do you little good.
Avoid pouring it on too thick. Being overly complimentary or polite could backfire, as recipients may doubt your sincerity. No one will question your intentions if you demonstrate them through actions rather than words.
Choose the path of least resistance. There’s nothing to be gained by doing things the hard way, so don’t hesitate to take short cuts to get the job done. The simplest solutions are the ones that work best in the week to come.
Take everything in moderation. The happy medium will make things work as this week unfolds. Don’t press the issue with relationship matters, as you may meet resistance.
Rise to the challenge. It may take a bit of extra effort to overcome an obstacle this week, but the satisfaction you get from completing a task will make it all well worth it. Don’t back down if someone questions your integrity or principles.
If you snooze, you lose. A wait-and-see approach will get you nowhere; the only way that you’ll make any progress this week is to get out there and make things happen. Follow your instincts to make important decisions. Play your pipes and others will follow. Those around you will be more than willing to let you take the lead, no matter where you choose to take them. As you make progress this week, an old problem from the past may briefly resurface.
Read between the lines. It may be difficult to understand a loved one’s intentions unless you delve beneath the front that they’re putting up. Be patient and talk things out without being overly pushy in the week ahead.
Get out and meet people. Strike up conversations with new acquaintances to pave the way for future friendships in the week to come. Listening to the way a loved one talks with others may shed some insight into their character.
You don’t have to give until it hurts. Efforts to please a loved one may have you stretching your budget rather thin, so keep things from getting out of hand this week. Remember that the best things in life are free.
If you want to get anything done, do it yourself. Your agenda only matters to you, so don’t rely on others to share your enthusiasm as the week unfolds. Matters involving family and close friends provide a welcome distraction.
If you are methodical and follow the rules you can make successful lifestyle changes or receive applause during the coming six to eight weeks. The key to receiving public attention is being precise and carefully considering your words. The best time to make major financial decisions is July, when your street smarts are at a high point. You are also wiser and can grasp the future ramifications of your schemes, so July is a very good time to make long-range plans and put your best ideas into motion. In September you can easily win the trust and admiration of other people, so this is a good time to attract a new romantic partner or to interview for a new position.
