July Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 - June 20)
Mutable Air. Your ruling planet is Mercury.

You have entered a tunnel in time, Gemini. Your chrysalis stage is nearly over and what is beginning is your process of emerging as an entirely different creature. Your values and the resources that you will need to actualize them are undergoing a renaissance also. As you find your feet and struggle to define yourself in new terms, sorting out the possibilities, your visions for a brilliant and novel future have an unusual power of manifestation. It is also true for you, right now, that writing down your ideas is crucial. Whether by journaling or blogging or even penning a traditional article, you need an avenue for verbal self-expression. Partners are also helpful at this time in getting you off the base and out the door. By month's end you'll hardly recognize yourself.

As the month begins, you are likely still reeling from the eclipse toward the end of last month, although it is in many ways a joyous and ultimately productive wobble that you are currently engaged in. As the philosopher said, "what doesn't kill me makes me strong," and this dictum certainly applies to you at this time, especially the strong part. You are reinventing yourself from the ground up, which takes both courage and strength, and finding the inspiration of the newest of new horizons that keep peeping up over the edge of your world map. At the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Sunday, July 4th, you are looking both ahead and behind you. The previous month has been somewhat of a wild ride, with many revelations of where you might be headed in your life, and you are attempting to resolve these new directions in terms of integration with existing ideas and plans. Also, over these next few weeks you are looking toward a forming future with perhaps a slight degree of trepidation but with also the glee and the freedom that is implied in setting off for unknown territory. If you face yourself squarely at this time, including the drawbacks, you will be richly rewarded, particularly in the way of self-knowledge, and knowledge is power. The New Moon and Solar Eclipse comes along a week later, on Sunday, July 11th, and if you have been playing your cards right you are more than ready for it. You are looking at a massive transmutation of your values and also of the resources that you will need on your journey – perhaps more are provided than you could ever have hoped for or perhaps you will be learning how to make do with less than you expected. Either way you are likely to be pleasantly surprised by the outcome. In this part of your adventure in self-discovery, communication is key. Messages arrive from all part of your life and you win when you carefully acknowledge each and every one of them. It is also important that you find peers that you can trust to understand your most important truth about what you are up to right now and reflect it back to you. The written word is also a great asset at this time, and plays an important role in releasing your creativity through such venues as email, blogging or journaling. When the First Quarter Moon hits a week later, taking place on Sunday, July 18th, you are likely to experience a period of tension in bringing about the changes that you want. Then the Full Moon of Sunday, July 25th puts the finishing touches on an amazing last half of the month. Although not all of your dreams and schemes will come true, not even close, you are well on your way to actualizing them in some sort of concrete fashion. You are thinking large at this time, and idealizing potential outcomes, and trusting that something of what you visualize can indeed become part of your reality.
