HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
The lunar square to Neptune amplifies the concept of confirmation bias. It is most common for the questions we ask to bring about the answer we already believed.

Whatever you do, get on your own side about it. Selfjudgment is unnecessary, unhelpful and, above all, inaccurate. The impact of your actions will be determined by others, and in time. Good intentions will eventually win out.
22-July
You’ll make your move. You’ll create and send your expression out like a sailboat to the waves. It’s a risk, but that’s what makes it exciting. There’s nothing like the exhilaration of navigating in vast territory and being part of something much bigger than you.
