Pursuing Pleasure
July 13 – 15
Expect surprises this weekend with shocking Uranus turning retrograde on Friday and verbal Mercury making a similar reversal on Saturday. But life might feel relatively calm at first with the Moon’s presence in stabilizing Taurus until Saturday morning. The zodiac’s Bull is like Ferdinand: a sweet, gentle sensualist who stops to smell the flowers. Taking time to sample life’s simple pleasures is a wonderful gift of the Taurus Moon. Familiar comforts are extra tasty in this habit-bound sign.
Saturday’s cosmic energy is much sassier, starting with a lunar leap into bouncy Gemini in the morning. The chatty Twins make it easy to talk to anyone about anything. Words of love and affection flow like poetry thanks to a flirtatious Mercury-Venus connection. Yet the retrograde turn of Messenger Mercury and a stern Sun-Saturn square provoke careless speech that can put a chill on relationships. Tempering high hopes and avoiding grandiose promises are ways to escape a sudden cooling trend.
Being patient with personal demands pays dividends on Sunday morning with a lunar conjunction to amorous Venus. There’s romance in the air; get up early to make a special breakfast for the one you love or head out into the world to see who might catch your eye. A friendly attitude and a playful approach are nearly impossible to resist.
