Your Horoscope for Thursday, July 11

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★★

Relate individually to others, avoiding a meeting, if possible. The results you will gain from one-on-one talks will be far more conclusive than you would get otherwise.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★

You could be trying to be more forthright and direct with a key associate, but he or she might not understand what is happening. You will find that others are clearly challenging.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★

To no one’s surprise except yours, exhaustion marks your actions, work and decisions. The best solution would be to take the day off.

CANCER ( June 21-July 22) ★★★★★

What you find challenging, another person could find boring. Don’t make a big deal of these differences; they add to your uniqueness.

LEO ( July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★★ You could be in the position of making an important decision that you would prefer to postpone. Discussions easily could short-circuit.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★★

A situation could easily go south if you don’t choose your words with care. Understand your limitations, though a lot could be cleared up if you do opt for a chat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★★

One-on-one relating could hold an unusual surprise for you. You also might note how very possessive you can be about a certain person.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★

Your intensity often pushes people away. They might be overwhelmed, yet on the other hand, those who enjoy this quality cannot get close enough.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★

If you need to close down and take time off, by all means do. You could be stunned by what comes out. Be careful if you lose your temper.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★

Open up to new possibilities as they appear. You might want to rethink a particular hassle that might have reappeared in your life.

AQUARIUS ( Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★

Look at the trends at the moment. You could feel as if someone is pushing you in a certain direction. Consider the long term and what you deserve.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★

You might want to clear certain judgments that are automatic on your part. You don’t have the control you desire to handle a personal matter at this time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ( July 11) This year, your intensity and creativity point to some intriguing happenings, success and more satisfaction. If single, romance intensifies from fall onward.
