Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today the moon moves into Leo where it will move forward until it lines up with the sun on Wednesday — creating a new moon! This is a powerful time for you. You want to do your own thing, which is why you might rebel against authority. It’s time to be your own person.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are not a loner. You like to have others in your life. Right now, you are focused on friends as well as groups and organizations. In fact, your relationship with someone might start to simmer a bit until something explodes on Wednesday. Be alert.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are high visibility today and for the next few days. You look attractive to others, which is why you might have a flirtation with someone in authority. Nevertheless, by the new moon on Wednesday, you will feel rebellious. You’re marching to the beat of your own drum.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a fortunate time for you. Gifts, goodies and money might come your way. Nevertheless, keep your eyes open because starting today until Wednesday, something is uncertain. A deal might fall through or an unexpected change might occur. Stay tuned.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Beginning today and for the next few days, certainly until Wednesday, be prepared to accommodate others and go more than halfway in your dealings. This is because both the sun and the moon are opposite your sign. You have no choice. It is what it is.

You’re keen to be productive and efficient in whatever you do. You are just as keen to improve your health as well. Yes, you want it all. This is wise. After all, why not be the best that you can be?
