Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, July 11

 

Aries

While you can have some great conversations in the first half of the day, dear Aries, particularly with or about family, there may also be a disappointment or a sobering moment that points you in the direction of making some adjustments. This is just fine – you’ve got this – but keep in mind that it’s best not to make final decisions or draw important conclusions until later, as you may not be seeing things clearly just for now. You may need more time to finish a task, or you might need to draw upon more resources than you had first realized. Do whatever is necessary to get yourself back on track, and avoid excess or pushing too hard today.

Taurus

This is a good day for making connections and opening up conversations, dear Taurus, but not necessarily for making solid commitments, as you may be second-guessing ideas and plans may be subject to scrutiny later today. Refinements need to be made to incomplete or weak plans. Financial worries or disagreements with a partner can become an issue now, or they can be behind a tense or critical mood. Roll up your sleeves and do what you can – don’t waste time on worry. It’s likely to be a busy day, but also an engaging one. Focus on accomplishing your goals step by step and one at a time.

Gemini

There can be a comforting feeling of abundance in the first half of the day, dear Gemini. A conversation could lift your spirits, or new insight into a problem can surface. Money matters can run smoothly – a debt may be repaid or a gift might be received, for example. You could be dealing with some frustration later today, and if you can’t pinpoint it, it might subtly undermine your decisions or leave you on a fence about a relationship or financial matter. It’s probably better to leave it on a fence until you are clearer and more confident. While good ideas are likely in the morning, you could be questioning yourself by day’s end.

Cancer

While you’ve been more independent than usual and valuing your freedom as well, dear Cancer, you may feel the need to take a pause later today, largely to regain strength and to fill the inner well. This morning’s communications can be heartening and forward-looking, and if you can manage to focus your energies on something fun rather than routine, you can do very well for yourself. People are finding you agreeable and attractive. You might find yourself enjoying talking about yourself without the usual feeling of self-consciousness that often goes along with it. Your perspective is appreciated. Later today, you may retreat into yourself a little. Watch for a tendency to nitpick and worry.

Leo

While in the first half of the day the ideas you come up with are likely very solid, dear Leo, wait for a better time to put a plan into action, as the mood this afternoon and tonight may be uncertain and indecisive. You could waver on things. Some of you could experience a disappointment with a friend, who may be undermining your confidence. You may feel pulled or pushed into a busy pace of life when you’d prefer to simply relax, digest, and take in. Avoid taking criticisms to heart later today, and instead decide what kind of improvements you can make going forward.

Virgo

You might connect with a special friend or a partner in the first half of the day, dear Virgo, and the lines of communication are open. Even provocative topics may be successfully approached with humor and love if you’re brave enough to raise them. Avoid taking on too much, however, as you’re likely to feel their weight as early as this afternoon, when you’re more practical, but perhaps taking practicality a little too far. Be cautious, but avoid thinking negatively. Repetitive patterns in communication tend to dominate now, but you can choose to break the cycle, at least on your end. As sociable as you have been lately, today you can feel a strong desire to dig in your heels and keep things simple.

Libra

In the first half of the day, although there can be some tendency to rush things, there is good energy for solving a practical problem, or for work plans to come together well, dear Libra. This can also be a good time to present an idea to the public or in a business setting. Conversations can be very pleasant, particularly with parents and bosses, and some of you could be making a friendly connection on the job. Some insecurities can be brought to the surface later today, however. There could be some anxiety over a recent decision or a work matter. Chances are in fact high that the information circulating around you is incomplete. While ambitions are strong right now, so are your needs for some emotional space and freedom.

Scorpio

Sharing ideas can be pleasant early today, dear Scorpio. Conversations occurring now can be supportive, although later today, when the general tendency is to look at the negative side of things, you may second-guess some of the things you come up with. This can be a time of making adjustments and accommodations for others – it may not make a lot of sense to draw things out. Some of you, however, may be humbled by something that happens today, and the learning experience is welcome. It’s a time for setting things straight or for correcting errors. Otherwise, you may not feel very much in sync.

Sagittarius

A helpful, useful conversation can occur today, dear Sagittarius, and a serious topic can be approached lightly with success. However, while you could be feeling strong with your relationships and confidence levels, later today seeds of doubt may be planted. Try to avoid coming across dispassionately in situations that would benefit from a more personal approach. Mixed signals from people can be frustrating, but you may also have some difficulties getting in touch with what you truly want right now. Spend more time on things before drawing final conclusions and decisions.

Capricorn

Conversations in the first half of the day may feel healing and magical, dear Capricorn, particularly with a partner or about a relationship, but you might second-guess them later. Emotionally, there can be a feeling that you’re being slighted, and there can be some ups and downs. Avoid overanalyzing social and relationship matters today. Without even intending to do so, you could commit to something you later lose interest in. Work and responsibilities tend to occupy your thoughts, and this can distract you from attentive relating.

Aquarius

Others tend to bring out the best in you early today, dear Aquarius, and work and practical matters fare well. You’re thinking creatively about how to make, save, and grow money, or you are discovering new way to manage your daily life and improve habits. People tend to be more helpful, or you might be meeting someone now that has an especially positive influence on you. Later today, watch that nervous energy doesn’t interfere with happiness, as a tendency to over-analyze things to the point of worry and tension. You can be especially interested in getting things done, but emotionally, you may be somewhere else entirely, wanting to escape the routine.

Pisces

This can be a good time for creating, sharing, and connecting, dear Pisces, although later today there can be some problems getting through clearly. The first half of the day brings warm, easy energy to your life, particularly when it comes to leisurely activities, hobbies, time spent with children, and romance. Others find you pleasingly attractive and wise, and you can have an easier time expressing your more playful side. Later today, you may need to deal with a small disappointment or reality check. Life getting a little more serious doesn’t have to be a complete downer, however. You can, in fact, feel good about taking care of business.
