Your weekly horoscope, July 8-15
Cancer
June 22 – July 22
Don't mistake spirited debate within your relationship for disagreement. It's fi ne to have differing views. Be respectful of differences and celebrate your shared interests. You're not clones of each other, and that's good.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
In your search for meaning, look beyond the mundane. It doesn't matter how clean your home is, or how much money is in the bank, but it does matter that you love and are loved.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
With Venus now in Virgo, you're keen to socialise and to show off your best self. Don't listen to little voices telling you that you must change, however.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
Competing demands from work and family mean very little free time; when you do have some, try to meditate. Recharging yourself mentally will help you physically too.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 22
If you're single, look for someone in an educational setting – this could be an interesting bond. Meanwhile, stretch your mind with a challenging novel.
Sagittarius
November 23 – December 20
Venus in your career zone turns this week into a charm offensive! Doing and saying the right things to the right people may smooth your path, but it's your previous hard work that got you here. Don't underestimate your skills.
Capricorn
December 21 – January 19
Love has an exotic flavour and may be connected with travel. Even if you and your sweetheart stay close to home, you'll want to keep the spark alive by ringing the changes in your routine.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
A sensual vibe demands privacy for you and your sweetheart, but work demands are not easy to ignore. Get creative with your scheduling to free up a few precious moments for love.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
If you're single, expect a visit from Cupid! With Venus in your love zone and a solar eclipse in your dating zone, it's all to play for! Keep your standards high but don't be afraid to have fun. Love doesn't have to be serious.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Your well-meaning eff orts to keep the peace both at home and at work may be scuppered by someone who is determined to provoke an argument. Keep smiling and rise above the issue.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
An exciting date brings lots of fun this week, but don't over-think it. Enjoy the moment for what it is, without necessarily attaching too many future expectations. Live for the moment.
Gemini
May 21 – June 21
Your family is in a gentle, supportive and constructive mood this week, but too much fretting – especially over children – will be counter-productive. Allow your loved ones the freedom to do their own thing. They will be safe.
