The Dark Side of the Water Witch c 2012

The Dark Side of the Water Witch

Water rules the emotions, and the Water Witch has a predisposition to think with the heart and not the head. As she is devoted to water, she believes wholeheartedly that a tiger can change its strips by virtue of cleansing away the negative. She will give a second chance in the case of an innocent mistake. However, if crossed intentionally, the Water Witch will hold a grudge until the end of time. She is a wall builder and will not hesitate to block out anyone who deserves it. Her code of justice is so strict that she often entertain notions of revenge. She is known to overdo it in these matters.

In personal matters, the Water Witch’s intuition does not function at its fullest capacity. She can be quick to assume a slight was intended by an innocent remark and operate strictly on that notion, regardless of its truthfulness. Unfortunately, once this happens the Water Witch can muddy her own waters.

Balancing the Elements: a Water and Sea Witch guide to finding balance with the elements

It would be silly to think that someone who calls themselves a water witch works ONLY with the water element. This would make for a very unbalanced practice! Rather Water or Sea Witches work with all the elements through their particular path which is deeply connected to water. A Water Witch may call themselves Water or Sea witch because they derive their power from the Waters or the Spirits that dwell with in it.

Working with Air
Water Witches can work with air in conjunction with water. While I personally don’t resonate with Air as well as I do the other elements, it can still be worked with and incorporated into a balanced practice. There are many stories of Witches having the power to control the wind and weather; many times these stories are about Sea Witches or witches that could be classified as Sea Witches based on where they live. An old folk spell Sea Witches have been recorded as being responsible for, is selling knots to Sailors. Each knot holding the power to release different strengths of wind.

“For the right price, witches supplied sailors with a cord having three knots. When becalmed, untying the first knot was thought to produce a light breeze, undoing the second produced a moderate wind, and the third a strong breeze. Scottish fishermen were known to buy knotted handkerchiefs of wind sorceress, the desired strength of the wind could be obtained by slowly undoing the knot. Once loosened, the knot was useless and for additional winds another purchase was required. If a sailor found a knot in a painter, he could expect a long voyage. When a sailor referred to “tying a knot in the devil’s tail,” he was relating to the “well done” completion of a difficult task.”

Another good example of Water Witches having the power to control the weather and raise up storms is the Gallicanae from the Island of Sena. Here we have a group of 9 priestess with magical powers who are clearly connected to the sea but also have the power to change the winds and work with water in conjunction with air.

“Sena in the British sea, opposite the Ofismician coast, is remarkable for an oracle of the Gallic God. Its priestesses, holy in perpetual virginity, are said to be nine in number. They are called Gallicenae, and are thought to be endowed with singular powers, so as to raise by their charms the winds and seas, to turn themselves into what animals they will, to cure wounds and diseases incurable by others, to know and predict the future; but this they do only to navigators who go thither purposely to consult them.”

In a modern practice, one can look to wisdom from water birds, work with knots as above, charge water in a singing bowls using voice and vibration to charge waters, and can engage in spirit flight using water as a portal to the other world.

Working with Fire

Working with Fire is actually quite fun when working water magic. Fire can heat our cauldrons, and be the catalyst for change, a flame can be lit at a sacred well or near a river. Floating candles can be used to merge the powers of water and fire and holy water can be used to anoint candles. Additionally, there are several European Goddesses that are associated with Fire and Water; Bride, Sulis and Nantosuelta are a few. Grannus is a masculine deity that is also associated with Fire and Natural Springs. Many cultures across the world combine water and fire together by lighting candles and setting them afloat on small rafts of herbs or wreaths. A Water Witch that is particularly connected to springs and wells will find many ways to honor and work with water and fire together. A popular tradition is well dressings, and candles as well as flowers and other offerings are used to decorate the sacred space on holy days.

In a modern practice candles can be anointed with holy water or used to light a ritual bath. Floating candles can be used in a bowl or one can Scry by candle light. Candles are a staple in every witches tool bag, and Water Witches use them as well, though our collection might be heavy on the blue and green side!

Working with Earth

Earth and Water are very compatible and often are used together. Floral essences, Herbal Teas, and Gem elixirs are quick and easy ways to combine earth and water magic together.

The earth is the vessel in which the water is held, both symbolically in the alchemical symbol and actually in the physical world. Our physical bodies which represent earth are filled with water and in a way is a vessel. The earth contains water and while it does not necessarily control it, it holds it, and houses it giving it a structure in which to rest or rage.

For the Sea Witch shells, sand, and drift wood would be earth representations and a beautiful way to combine water and earth. There is nothing more beautiful than a piece of smooth driftwood that washes up at your feet. Water and Earth work together to transform the environment around it; river rocks and beach agates smoothed and tumbled by nature are other good examples of water and earth together.

Witches that work with rivers can connect to the earth with river rock, hag stones and the muddy parts of the shore. Bath salts can also be considered an earth element and are a wonderful edition to any bath!

Dew has much folklore and recorded magical uses, a popular one being collecting dew on May Day from the Hawthorn tree. For the most part Dew relies on plants and grasses to hold its delicate watery form. Again a perfect example of combining the elements.

Working with all the elements is important in any magical practice, and for those of us that are watery it is always good to reach towards a more grounding element in tough times. When our waters need to be stirred up reach towards air and when you need to heat up or become passionate about something working with Fire can be beneficial. Finding balance is important, and so is honoring all the elements even if our home is in the waters!

The Path Of The Water Witch

 

The Path Of The Water Witch

 

Water Witches are sometimes called Sea Witches, but many of them find a calling with inland creeks, rivers, and lakes. It is rare for them to limit themselves to any one type of body of water. They generally align with all forms, including rain.

In most mythologies, human sprang from the Earth, but the gods themselves came from water. Egyptian theory states that the sun god Re was born from the primordial waters. Today, scientists can back that theory, NASA scientists theorize that water exists in heavy quantities in the universe. It works as a coolant. The water vapors in outer space for the condensing of clouds. Once a cloud condenses enough, it becomes a star.

Water reflects, the Water Witch does the same. If you yell at her, she will yell back at you. If you are kind to her well, she will be kind and treat you well in return. She is very fair. She shares many qualities with her sister Earth Witch, as the Earth is 90 percent water. Among those qualities is the core belief of taking complete responsibility for her actions. The Water Witch accepts that every move she makes can cause ripples across the surface of the water and moves accordingly.

Water is considered a feminine force, and the Water Witch may prefer an alliance with the Goddess, all the while recognizing and maintaining that the God is within the Goddess. She cans sometimes relate closely to Dianic Witches in this preference.

The Water Witch can see things that those on other paths cannot. In fact, the human sense of sight belongs in her realm. Just as the seas teem with life that we have yet to discover and understand, the Water Witch know s that there is much more to our world than what is within our eyesight! While she can be highly superstitious, for the most part she simply knows that there is more just waiting to be discovered, as well as some things that humanity has known about and forgotten over the ages. The old phrase “out of the blue” speaks volumes about the ability of the Water Witch to tune in to her intuition. She is often very gifted in divination practices. Tarot is usually her divinatory tool of choice, but she also has a talent for dowsing.

The Water Witch sees little that she considers an obstacle. She understands that her fate is in her hands, and if she cannot flow through something, she will flow around it. Once her mind is made up, very little can stop her from obtaining what she wants. Because water exists in three forms on Earth, The Water Witch can be considered a formidable force. She will not admit to any weaknesses.

The Water Witch has a close link to the feminine side of nature. She understands reproduction and is akin to her sister Earth Witch in this manner as well. Menstruation falls in the realm of the Water Witch. Because of this, she is instrumental in moon-lodge practices and coming-of-age rites. Her sister Earth Witch may focus more on the rebirth cycle, while the Water Witch is more in touch with creation.

The Water Witch specializes in healing, cleansing, beauty, emotions, intuition and energy. Her magickal style is usually based on instinct. If the feeling hits her to perform a cleansing, she will. She does not necessarily worry about correspondences and timing. Her timing is completely her own–she will not be rushed by others into decisions or action. Schooled in water magick, ice magick and snow magick, the Water Witch can tell you all about the role of water in the metaphysical and physical realms.

Winter is the season when the Water Witch’s power is at its peak. She holds within herself the ability to transform fluidity to solid form during the winter, the same way that water turns to ice. It is during this season that the Water Witch should turn her view inward and evaluate her goals. She often redefines herself through the process. Because of this, a Water Witch grows stronger every year. She understands that just as dry ice is sticky, it is her role to hold thing together.

Throughout the winter months, the Water Witch is abnormally busy, even for her active lifestyle. Because she is at her highest power and incarnated in all three of her forms during these months, she may be short of temper. When you add to that the fact that artificial heat (fire, an evaporating influence on water) is usually pumped into the home during this time and families tend to be cooped up in the same space, you may have one cranky, stressed-out Water Witch on your hands. She longs for room to spread out and flow. A simple snowfall can ease her mind and soothe her spirit; she draws strength from it. If that is not an option, a long bath or a cup of hot tea usually helps. Rest assured that if you visit her in the winter months, she will be a very gracious hostess, regardless of the timing. The Water Witch is known for her generous hospitality.

Her home décor is usually unthemed, with whimsy being the main rule. The Water Witch may have a quirky collection of glass objects, prisms (she tends to like sparkly things), tons of throw pillows and an aquarium. Cool blues and greens are often primary colors in both her wardrobe and her home.

Due to her busy lifestyle, the Water Witch frequently has to let the housework slide somewhat. Although she prefers all things to be clean, she also understands that there must be “salt in the sea.” In other words, a small amount of dirt is inevitable, and she is able to live with that comfortably. She absolutely cannot stand clutter, though. It drives her to distraction.

Another common trait of the Water Witch is a quirky sense of humor. It simply cannot be defined. Some of the things she says seem to come from outer space in their relation to the topic, yet they can make you laugh as nothing else will. This is intentional–the Water Witch is lighthearted. But just when you begin to think she has never had a deep thought in her life, she will prove you wrong. When it comes to serious conversation, the Water Witch can often put her finger on an aspect of the situation that the other Elemental Witches do not see. The Water Witch is very wise.

Like her mythical brethren the mermaids and water nymphs, the Water Wise tends to love long hair. She may keep it pulled back in a ponytail due to a lack of time, but she lets it grow nonetheless. The effects that water has on the body are directly in line with the metaphysical attributes of the Water Witch. Usually beautiful, she is often younger looking in appearance than in age and has a long memory and attention span and bright, shining eyes.

Because the Water Witch always considers every side of an argument before making up her mind, she may be slow to assume a position. Rest assured that when a Water Witch states her opinion., it has been well thought out. She open-minded and fair. Her strength lies in her dual nature an a ability to see the points or view of others. And like water, she will find her way into all of the small nooks and crannies of a situation. She may initially choose an answer based on instinct but if new facts come to light, she will often change her mind. She is flexible.

Those on the water path often find a calling in helping others. They make wonderful therapists, psychiatrists, obstetricians, pediatricians or service personnel. Often people are attracted to their soothing nature and come to them for advice. Like a waterbed, a reflecting pool , or a relaxing bath, Water Witches project an aura of serenity and comfort.

The Water Witch may be seen as moody, but like the sea herself, she is often in motion. She rarely slows down She is full of energy and always on the go. And like the sea, her moods swing with the tides. The moon holds sway over the tides, and one can easily draw a parallel between the moon and the Water Witch’s emotional patterns.

5 Ways to Tell if you are a Water Witch c2018

 

5 Ways to Tell if you are a Water Witch

So you are a witch and you love the water! In fact you might even be a just a little obsessed with it. You tend to find yourself walking the shores and collecting river rock and sea shells. If you tend to work with spirits that are associated with the water and worship goddesses born of the waves then chances are you are a Water Witch. Water Witchcraft is a “genre” of witchcraft that honors and derives its power from the water. Sea witches have a long history in both ancient and more modern folk and mythic stories. So if you are drawn to the water and witchcraft here are 5 ways to know if your genre of witchcraft is Water Witch or Sea Witch.

1) You Spend time with the water!

Do you spend time near the water? Great! That is the first step to an active Water Witch practice! Becoming one with the energies of the water, be it the ocean, river, or lake, is an important part of being a Water Witch. If you haven’t spent time by a bubbling brook or a raging ocean what are you waiting for? Studies show that spending time near the ocean is good for your health! It’s going to be good for your Witchcraft too! No doubt walking the shores of a river or the ocean in a light meditative state while opening up and listening to the water is a going to deepen your connection with water!

If you are a land locked Sea Witch try getting a friend to send you a bottle of sea water from your favorite ocean. If you are a home bound Water Witch, try working with the water that you can access from your home! Water can be stored in clean glass jars and placed on your altar!

2) You give offerings and do rituals by the Water!

Witches do spells and rituals! That much we can agree on right? Well Water Witches do them too! You may find a Sea Witch drawing sigils in the sand or collecting sea water! You may find a River Witch meditating in a quite space under low hanging trees over a rippling river. Flowers are often found on the beach, remnants of a ritual that was performed there before, however they can often be problematic, and other offerings can often be toxic to the environment. The best offering we can give the Water is to keep it clean, collect trash, help keep the waters clean and send healing spells to the water. More about offerings here

3) You Collect Water!

Witches in general tend to have many boxes, bags, and bottles! But Water Witches tend to have more bottles and jars than anything! Why? Well they hold the various waters we work with! A witch’s cabinet is just as unique as the witch varying with their tradition and path. In it you may find various jars of water including, ocean water, muddy water, rain water, full moon water, holy water, water from various sacred springs and local water sources, florida water, war water, floral essences, gem essences and other strange watery concoctions!

4) You Make Magic Waters!

There are so many different types of magical waters to work with, however a basic skill every water witch needs is how to create holy water! Every witch has their own way; some with a hag stone, salt or silver, others charge water from a sacred spring or under the full moon as a basic water to empower their spells and rituals. Holy water is also useful in cleansing and purification rites and learning how to make your own will be useful in case you wanted to take a sacred bath in a tub of holy water! Because Water Witches love their sacred baths too!

5) You work with a Water or Ocean Spirit, God or Guide!

Depending on your path you most likely work with some type of spirit. Spirits come in many forms, Godlike, ancestral, angelic, demonic, animal, Faery, plant, etc. Most pantheons have water spirits! Even the Ancestral realm has extinct water creatures such as the Megalodon or mythological sea monsters. You could also explore working with the spirit of a pirate or Davey Jones Locker. There are Water Faery and Gods abound and are too numerous to list with each pantheon having multiple deities! Chances are that you have a shrine or altar space that is watery in nature or even dedicated to the water or a water god/ess. Or perhaps a collection of prized sea shells intermingled with candles that are more to you than decoration.

There are many other ways to be a water witch and these are not mutually exclusive and there are many other ways to incorporate water into your practice. Divination may play a large roll in your practice or perhaps it is ritual for you. You may be an energy worker practicing on the sea shore, it doesn’t matter really! It just matters that you are doing the work and following your own path. I do hope you enjoyed the article and a fun way of categorizing Water Witch traits!

July 22, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for July 22nd, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 26.98 days old and 8.64% illuminated with a tilt of -41.51°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 369,278.79 km and the moon sign is Gemini.

The Moon phase for July 22nd, 2025 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

Phase Details

Phase: Waning Crescent

Moon age: 26.98 days

Moon illumination: 8.64%

Moon tilt: -41.51°

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on July 22 has an illumination of 6%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On July 22 the Moon is 27.27 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

May sorrow be unknown, and any negativity be minimal. May the wind always be at your back.

As a Cancer born on July 21st, you have an artistic nature but at the same time, a commercial sense as well. You put great price on your stability but also seek to disrupt it in order to challenge yourself.

In life, you are often in close proximity to important people and some of them might actually help you with your endeavours, in time. Get ready to better understand your horoscope profile below.

 The zodiac sign for July 21 is Cancer.

 Astrological symbol: Crab. The sign of the Crab represents people born June 21 – July 22, when the Sun is placed in Cancer. It suggests the emotional and protective nature of these people.

 The Cancer Constellation, one of the 12 zodiac constellations is spread on an area of 506 sq degrees and its visible latitudes are +90° to -60°. The brightest star is Cancri and its neighboring constellations are Gemini to the West and Leo to the East.

 The name Cancer is the Latin name for Crab. In Greece, Karkinos is the name of the sign for July 21 zodiac sign, while in Spain and France they also use Cancer.

 Opposite sign: Capricorn. It is considered that partnerships of any kind between the Cancer and Capricorn sun sign people are the best in the zodiac and highlight generosity and freedom.

 Modality: Cardinal. Reveals how much loving sense and daring state exists in the lives of those born on July 21 and how sincere they are in general.

 Ruling house: The fourth house. This house governs ancestry, home stability and family relations and is exactly what these sensible beings need to surround with. Cancerians are also oriented towards remembering passed times and collecting souvenirs.

 Ruling body: Moon. This celestial planet is said to influence emotions and intuition. It is also to be mentioned about the moodiness of these natives. The glyph of the Moon is a crescent.

 Element: Water. This is the element of the romantics, those born under the July 21 zodiac sign who are quick to offer compassion and to unravel how they feel. The depth of water reveals the depth of these complex individuals.

 Lucky day: Monday. Ruled by the Moon this day symbolizes patience and the shadowy side of life and seems to have the same emotional flow as the lives of Cancer individuals.

 Lucky numbers: 4, 9, 10, 16, 26.

 Motto: “I feel!”

 People born on July 21 try to build a convenient life for themselves and for those dear to them and crave for cohesion above all. They are pragmatic beings with their feet well grounded and who prefer establishing some sort of ordinary and then dealing with well established tasks. They seek for calm and soothing settings to recharge their batteries but at the same time they are quick to abandon them when something exciting comes up.

 Positive Traits: These natives are knowledgeable, responsible and have a great self control. Cancer people are usually disciplined and attentive when it comes to relevant things and amicable and fun the rest of the time. Those born under this sign are also witty and balanced. They enjoy knowing as many things as possible but they also know when and with whom to share their extended awareness.

 Negative Traits: One of the things Cancer needs to learn is to stop being so naive and trusting, not everyone has the best intentions. Those born on this day are overly cautious, rigid and pessimistic. They hardly embrace change and adventure. They always seem to have this fixed and suspicious attitude whenever they deal with something fun, risky or simply new.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on July 21 are extremely romantic and passionate. They are also the most protective lovers from the whole zodiac once their own security and stability needs are fulfilled. They have an extra quality in love, they are highly intuitive and usually follow their gut so they are rarely wrong in their choices. They are attracted to creative and imaginative people. You can conquer the heart of Cancer if you know how to offer the support and protection they need and love them unconditionally.

 They are likely to surprise everyone around them with the passionate love they are capable of, only if they come across someone that will truly awake their interest. Otherwise they are aware of their attractiveness and this leads them to a tumultuous love life, falling in and out of love. A creative, freedom lover, once decided to settle will invest all their attention in their family and they will probably have brilliant children. Some struggle, trial and error will govern parts of their love life but in the end everything will be worth it. They are most compatible with those born on the 6th, 9th, 15th, 18th, 24th and 27th.

 July 21 Zodiac people are very attracted to the other water signs: Scorpio and Pisces as they tend to share the same vision of life. In life, Cancer is constantly seeking for someone who can understand their moody nature and the most suitable to offer them this is the native from Virgo. Cancer is thought to be least compatible with Aquarius. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Cancer, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: Silver is the lucky color for Cancer zodiac.

The closer grey goes to black, the mysterious and dramatic it gets. The closer it goes to white the more illuminating and pure becomes. And so is Cancer, dwelling between extremes. Silver as a power color doubles the stellar accent on those born on July 21.

Other colors preferred by people born on July 21 are violet, blue and pastels.

Representative Birthstone: The birthstone for Cancer zodiac is the delicate Pearl.

Because Cancer zodiac is the child of the moon, it is only natural that its sign stone is the exquisite Pearl, also known as the ‘teardrop of the moon’. Pearls symbolize sensitivity, purity and innocence and are said to bring clarity of mind and confidence to the wearer.

Another gemstone that is considered beneficial for people born on July 21 is the Moonstone.

Characteristic Flower: The lucky flower for Cancer zodiac is Accanthus.

Just like the Cancer, Accanthus radiates sensitivity and reveals a nurturing spirit oriented towards both people and environment. This is a precious flower, with purple and white petals oriented towards the sky.

Other flowers suggestive for Cancer are Water Lilies.

Symbolic Metal: Silver is the metal considered lucky for Cancer zodiac.

Silver is a malleable precious material known to sooth and influence Cancer towards introspection and pondering on the deeper questions of life.

Another metal thought to be lucky for people born on July 21 is Platinum.

Characteristics: July 21 Zodiac belongs to the third decan of CANCER (July 14-July 22). This decan is strongly influenced by the planet Neptune. This is representative for people who are curious and dreamy just like Cancer and ready to seize all opportunities just like Neptune. This period tempers the positive and negative characteristics of Aries zodiac sign, slightly enhancing the negative ones.

 Being born on the 21st day of the month means creativity coupled with intuition and a practical, detail oriented approach to life matters. The numerology for July 21 is 3. This number reveals great human interactions and all kinds of communication. People ruled by number three sure know their way around words. The association between Cancer and this number will surface eloquence and great people skills in the first. July is the seventh month of the year, bringing very hot, tense days and holiday time. Those born in July are easy going and affectionate. July 21 Zodiac people are ambitious and imaginative. July has as representative symbols the Larkspur and Water Lilly as plants and Ruby and Onyx as gemstones. The name comes from Julius Caesar, the roman emperor.

What Statistics Say: In the Gregorian Calendar, July 21 appears as the 202nd day of the year or the 203rd day in case of leap years and there are 163 days left until the end of the year. The fifty first day of summer, this is also the Racial Harmony Day as observed in Singapore.

 Cancer is placed on the sixth position on the list of birth signs occurrence. Exuding negative polarity and a moody energy, this is an even numbered sign with a feminine symbolism. This is representative for introvert natives who are hesitant and moderated. The Psychologist is an archetype used when referring to this sign. Many of the people born in the summer months are either in science or leadership positions. Famous people born on July 21 under the Cancer zodiac sign: Ernest Hemingway, Robin Williams, Paloma Faith, Josh Hartnett and Don Knotts.

If you were born on July 21, you may not be a troublemaker, but trouble seems to find you everywhere you go! You’ve had some bouts of bad luck that could have put you in some not-so-good situations. Rather than lay down and play victim to this lifestyle, you take trouble by the horns and ride it out! You’re known to be adventurous, daring, rebellious, and pretty cool. Don’t forget that you’re not invincible and remember to appreciate the people in your life who have had your back — even when you’re being bad to the bone!

July 21 Cancer at Their Best: Exciting, cunning, brave

July 21 Cancer at Their Worst: Manipulative, aggressive, reckless

What to Wear: Khaki shorts, patio dresses and flip-flops. This constantly comfy creature may even show up in a favorite beach cover-up or Hawaiian shirt.

What to Eat: Totally simple, homemade fair — anything from macaroni and cheese to hamburgers and hot dogs, accompanied by Mom’s secret cole slaw and potato salad as sides.

Who to Invite: If you don’t think a normal adult would want to extend invites to an eclectic group of slightly weird family members, Cancer might surprise you.

Where to Go: Home. Your house, or better yet — theirs. A party where all the guests yell “Surprise!“ would produce tears of total joy, even if it wasn’t unexpected.

JULY 21 birthday horoscope predicts that you are hypersensitive, observant and expressive. That‘s a lot of goodness rolled into one person. It doesn’t stop there. You are bestowed with intuitive and artistic qualities that can provide a particular movement within you. Different forms of art have different effects on your day-to-day life.

As the zodiac sign for July 21st is cusp of Cancer and Leo, you can be irritable when motionless. Those born on this day can be very outgoing and sociable individuals. Naturally, you are protective and have a deep concern for your loved ones.

The July 21st birthday personality characteristics predict that you love your family and your home. It is quite charming as are you, Cancer. On the other hand, you have a few weaknesses.

Those of you born under this zodiac sign can be moody, grumpy or unstable even. You stand your ground, however, when it comes to your individuality and your space. Cancer, according to the July 21st birthday, are personalities who are very inventive or creative. You have a spectacular imagination. People love you, as you are a wonderful person who is always helpful and nice.

Can we talk about your love life? The July 21 birthday love compatibility analysis says that you can be unrealistic and naive when it comes to issues of the heart. You can be overly sensitive and disappointed as you tend to expect too much.

If today July 21 is your birthday, you can do many things as an artist, but you cannot make someone love you or act the way you want them to. Despite your best efforts, you should redesign your approach to love and commitment.

As the July 21 horoscope rightly say, you are incredible, and someone would be happy to share your goals and dreams with you. Because the person born on this day has suffered disappointments before, you are likely a Crab that has trust issues.

A person desiring to make you their “Boo” should be funny, emotionally secure, and have the same values. This Cancer birthday personality is compassionate and easy to talk too. It is very likely that you will want to talk over your fantasies. You love a rainy night.

A job has never been hard for the July 21 zodiac person to find. You are well-groomed, talented, and skilled. What more could a sensible employer want than someone like you? Sometimes, you are hired based on your capabilities rather than your experience. You are innovative, and that is what most employers are looking for bright and energetic personnel.

You have discipline too except for when it comes to shopping. Those born on this birthday July 21st can shop until you drop. Mainly though, you save and prepare for the future so, this typically will not bind you if done in moderation. Sunsigns.org has information on everything under the sun including tips on how to budget and save money.

The July 21 birthday personalities typically are easy to be influenced, believe it or not. When it comes to picking up bad habits, you will! Contrary to the Crab’s nature, there are times when you do not take care of personal hygiene; basic grooming efforts go lacking and more so, your attitude toward health.

Habits likely to draw Cancer’s attention are smoking and drinking. The two go hand in hand. I am sorry Cancer, but both of those habits stink in more ways than one. It is suggested that you should use these vices in moderation. Try doing something productive and positive such as exercising. The next time you splurge, treat yourself to a spa day. This could be very relaxing and enjoyable.

The July 21 zodiac personality shows you can have negative traits such as being irritable, grumpy and obsessive. If you behave this way, you will be left all alone in this world. Otherwise, you are active at home and on the job. You desire someone to share it with someone that is sensitive to your dreams.

Occasionally, you wind up being disappointed because of your unrealistic expectations. Then you likely will go out and have a few drinks to avoid depression or stress and could form an addiction. Stick to more solutions that are positive so we can talk about everything under the sun long into retirement years. Take care of yourself you are most important.
