Let’s Talk Witch – Our Mind Set c 2014

 Let’s Talk Witch – Our Mind Set

Our most important first tool when performing magick is our mind. You have to ask yourself a few questions before you start casting. Will this spell harm no one? Do I need this? Am I in the right state of mind to cast a spell?

These are just a few very important questions we need to ask ourselves. If you are sick, your magick may not be as strong as when you are healthy, so in those times you should be focused on self healing above everything else. There are so many steps you can cover here….but first…lets see where your mind is at and then we’ll continue from there. Don’t worry–there aren’t any difficult incantations to remember, no hard to pronounce power words. Simply logical and informative magickal applications to a better life. So take a deep breath, let it out slowly and clear your mind. Find your center, it’s easy to do. Just let go of all the hassles and stresses you have from the day–steer your mind away from all those fast paced thoughts of today’s society. And simplify. Go deep within yourself, and find who you really are. It really quite simple to find out who you really are deep down. Go back to basics. All those thoughts….get rid of them!

Think about the following…..

How often do you find yourself traveling through this world for others? How often do you find yourself compromising your beliefs, emotions and feelings for those around you? So as not to feel “uncomfortable” or in “pain” we see ourselves as if in a motion picture, acting out our lives in a drama that ends in need, want desire—for something different. For something that could have been. For something that should have been. Why do we walk down these roads? Why do we travel to these places at all? Is our vision skewed so dramatically by what others believe is right for us, that we feel the need to be someone other than ourselves? Carpe diem! Seize the day. Seize your life, take it for everything it is worth, hold onto that which makes you happy–that which brings you joy and contentment. Know that life’s lessons lead us into places that are sometimes dark and foreboding….you, somehow–when learned–these places turn to light. Know that happiness comes from within you, and not through others circumstances or fortune. Know that true happiness can be found in others…not when the time is right but when it is real. Trust your heart, trust in your soul—and life will catch up with you.

Live. Be free, and fly and shout as loudly as you want. Take hold of your dreams. Never let anyone try to influence your mind or your will. Be true to yourself and your will be able to live your dreams and find happiness beyond belief. Dare to dream, keep your mind clear at all times and use it wisely. For it is the most important tool you have in magick.

Let’s Talk Witch – Your Power c 2015

Your Power

Now let’s talk about some techniques and exercises to help you begin raising and channeling your Wicca power.

First of all, anyone can cast a powerful magical spell. If you think you’re not powerful enough, or not magical enough, or if you’re still a little skeptical about Wicca, don’t worry.

You will still be able to perform very effective magic, if you can follow some simple instructions.

There is a very important principle that underlies all magic spells you will perform.

Some people call it The Secret. Others know it as the Law of Attraction. But the point is, you will attract what you think about and focus on. That is how powerful your mind is.

Magic, using tools and words and spells, just enhances this natural ability that your mind has to attract.

Magic lets you powerfully attract what you want, and it works because of the Law of Attraction.

The key here is to make sure that everything you do is in line with your goals. All your thoughts, all your actions, and everything you do should be in agreement with what you are trying to attract.

For example: if you are trying a spell to lose weight, then looking in the mirror and saying “look how fat I am, I’m never going to lose this weight!” is going against your purpose.

You must think positive, and imagine the reality you wish to achieve with your spell.

And if you binge on brownies, bon-bons, and junk food, you are also going against your purpose.

And your spell is not going to work.

Let me repeat this again because it’s important.

Your spells will not work unless you put your entire being into achieving your goal.

Magic without the proper intention is just a bunch of rhyming words.

When you do magic, you want it to work for you.

So do yourself a favor, and make sure that you avoid anything that contradicts or goes against the purpose of your spell.

Making negative statements will cancel out any positive energy created by your spell. This means that the spell won’t work.

When you cast a spell, you need to be confident that it will succeed. In fact, the more confident you are, the more successful your spell is likely to be.

Try to frame your thoughts and statements positively: “I will lose the weight.” “I can and I will achieve my goals.” “I am eating healthy foods to achieve my goals.”
When you make positive statements like this, you create positive energy that reinforces your spell and makes it stronger.

So make sure you are creating positive energy for your spell, both before, during, and after your spell is cast.

Spell For Monday – Elemental Road Opener Spell: Wiccan Prayer to Unlock Paths

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Elemental Road Opener Spell: Wiccan Prayer to Unlock Paths

Road opener rituals are great for finding the way out of a stagnant situation and moving forward in life. If you are feeling stuck or having a hard time with a specific problem 🔗, this simple spell might help you find the right course of action.

This is a road opening ritual inspired by Mexican bruja Yeel Maló, who works with the ray of Archangel Gabriel, the celestial messenger. The spell recipe on this page has been modified to invoke the Universal Elements instead.

You can dedicate this prayer to a different patron saint or deity. If you need inspiration for your devotional practice, visit today’s ruling deities or learn about the God and Goddess of Wicca.

How this Spell Works

We will work with each of the 4 Elementals for a Wiccan ritual.
‣ A bowl of water will symbolize the Water Element 💧
‣ A crystal or gemstone for the Earth💎
‣ An incense stick for the Air ☁️
‣ And a candle for Fire 🔥

What incense should I use? Pick an aroma that matches your intention. You can browse the Green Witch course to learn about the properties of different herbs. Cinnamon is a great option because of its warm, comforting smell that sanctifies the ritual area.

If you don’t have a crystal or gemstone for this spell, use a bowl filled with kitchen salt instead.

Road Opener Wiccan Candle Ritual

Recipe by Francisco Huanaco
An easy road opener spell with a candle and a Wiccan prayer. Invoke the 4 elementals to clear and unlock solutions to your problems.

What you’ll need

Bowl of water (regular drinking water)

1 incense stick

1 crystal or gemstone (pick one according to the day)

1 white candle

How to do a road opener spell

Arrange your items on the altar. Each element will face one of the four directions: Water faces West. Air faces East. Earth faces North. Fire faces South.

Light the incense. The Air element is entering your ritual.

Rub your hands for a few seconds until you can feel a warm energy, visualize a ball of energy and hold your crystal, you are invoking the Earth element.

Light the candle to call upon the presence of the Fire element.

Gently dip a finger in the water to feel the company of the Water element. Water represents a state of flow, a mirror that can open the door to a new reality. This transforming energy will clear all blockages.

Chant the following road opener prayer:Road Opener prayer chant

Visualize an empty road. Meditate for a few minutes as you see yourself moving forward.

Let the candle burn completely and always practice candle safety. If you need to leave the room, put out the candle and continue burning it later.

Once the candle is burned, toss all remains away while saying Thank you. Keep the crystal close to you. If you need to invoke the power of this spell, rub your hands and hold it in your hands again.

July 7, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for July 7th, 2025 is the Waxing Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 12.46 days old and 90.7% illuminated with a tilt of 126.598°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 400,980.86 km and the moon sign is Sagittarius.

The Moon phase for July 7th, 2025 is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

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 word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Today’s Waxing Gibbous Phase

On July 7 the Moon is 11.78 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.

Being a Cancer born on July 6th, you are keen to make changes in your life and try new things. Needless to say, anything that spells challenge is something you are up to.

Growing and being a better person is also very important to you. At times, you can become quite meditative and on this occasions you come up with the best ideas. Prepare to read a special personality report below.

 The zodiac sign for July 6 is Cancer.

 Astrological symbol: Crab. It is representative for people born between June 21 and July 22 when the Sun is in Cancer. This symbol denotes stability, emotion, ambition and sometimes moodiness.

 The Cancer Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, covering visible latitudes between +90° and -60°. It lies between Gemini to the West and Leo to the East on an area of only 506 square degrees. The brightest star is called beta Cancri.

 In Italy it is named Cancro while the Spanish call it Cancer. However, the Latin origin of the Crab, the July 6 zodiac sign is Cancer.

 Opposite sign: Capricorn. This sign as the opposite or complementary of Cancer reveals moodiness and intuition and shows how these two sun signs have similar goals in life but they reach to them differently.

 Modality: Cardinal. This indicates intuition and warmth and also how witty natives born on July 6 truly are.

 Ruling house: The fourth house. This is a space of domestic security, familiar environments and ancestry. This is why Cancerians are known to put much emphasis on concepts like cherished belongings, belonging to a home and on personal safety.

 Ruling body: Moon. This association reveals meditation and acceptance. The Moon is one of the seven classical planets that can be seen with the naked eye. The Moon also shares an insight on sympathy.

 Element: Water. This element represents transformation and continuous growth and is considered to determine the mood swings of those associated with July 6 as they tend to support their actions on feelings and less on reason. Water boils things in association with fire, it’s vaporized by air and shapes things in combination with earth.

 Lucky day: Monday. Cancer best identifies with the flow of the meditative Monday while this is doubled by the connection between Monday and its ruling by the Moon.

 Lucky numbers: 3, 5, 14, 18, 25.

 Motto: “I feel!”

 People born on July 6 are highly emotional and nurturing and can be very attentive to those around them but this usually happens when their own emotions are fulfilled. They like helping others and feeling useful and they seem to invest a lot of time in doing this in a domestic setting. They are moody and can sometimes be overdramatic. They dislike boredom and dread feeling lonely. By nature, they feel at ease when they are close to a water source, be it the ocean or just a small river.

 Positive Traits: These people are great at organizing things and good with money so they make great investors. They are sensible and vulnerable but at the same time they have their own vision of things and they rarely go further than that. They are genuinely interested in discovering as many things as possible about people and the world we live in. They are protective and empathic but also tenacious when it comes to their own plans.

 Negative Traits: Cancer needs to learn to accept people as they are and stop trying to change or manipulate them by any means. Those born on this day are overemotional and thick skinned. They are sometimes hypocritical to people they don’t like just to keep up appearances. Their biggest faults are being overly negative, indecisive and inclined to self pity. This is even more serious as it occurs even after numerous reassurances from those around them who keep telling them what a good job they are doing or how great they are.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on July 6 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.

 Their love affairs grow from strong friendships. They need time to know the person likely to stay beside them and although they are not usually a passionate lover their loyalty and honesty compensate. They are very kind souls and this won’t remain unnoticed by the important persons around them in life. They will lead a great inner home happiness governed by domestic responsibility and good judgment. They are most compatible with those born on the 1st, 6th, 9th, 10th, 15th, 18th, 19th, 24th and 27th.

 July 6 Zodiac people are most attached to the other two water signs: Scorpio and Pisces as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Cancer is in a constant search for someone capable of unconditional love and understanding and the best to offer them this is the native in Virgo. The least compatible with people born on July 6 are those born under 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 color defined for July 6 and in general for Cancer natives.

Silver suggests mystery but also light, depending whether it is closer to black or white. This zodiac color should be used in objects around the house and accessories.

People with silver as sign color lead a balanced, confident and independent lifestyle is attractive and so is their usual emotional detachment. They know how to act and what to say at any time and in any situation but they tend to remain reserved and focused on their own lives.

Other colors for Cancer people are violet, blue and pastels.

Representative Birthstone: The delicate Pearl is the representative Cancer birthstone for those born under the July 6.

Pearl suggests sensitivity, purity and innocence is thought to guide the decisional processes and also to sooth the moody Cancer. This zodiac birthstone should be used in pendants, bracelets and other accessories.

This birthstone is thought to have a positive influence on opening the mind and taking good decisions. Nowadays, cultured pearls have almost completely replaced natural pearls from the markets.

Another birthstone considered beneficial for Cancer natives is Moonstone. It symbolizes clarity and sensibility.

Characteristic Flower: Acanthus is the flower that is considered lucky for those Cancer natives with July 6.

Acanthus is a plant that symbolizes sensitivity and nurturing. This zodiac flower should be used in decorations and other accessories.

These flowers indicate a highly intuitive and perceptive individual, interested both in his life and the life of others. This flower can be found during early summer to midsummer.

Other flowers for Cancer people are Water Lilies.

Symbolic Metal: The metal considered to be representative for Cancer natives with July 6 is Silver.

Silver is one of those metals that denote mystery and sensibility. This zodiac metal is advised to be used in pendants and earrings.

This precious metal is said to sooth and orients the wearer towards introspection and self development. Silver is also thought to bring great humor and liveliness to the person wearing it.

Another metal considered influential for Cancer natives is Platinum.

Characteristics: July 6 Zodiac belongs to the second decan of CANCER (July 3-July 13). This decan is strongly influenced by the planet Pluto. This is representative for people who are creative and intuitive just like Cancer and focused just like Pluto. This period is said to temper the characteristics of Cancer zodiac sign.

 Being born on the 6th day of the month shows a perseverant individual who is also generous, tender and caring. The numerology for July 6 is 6. This number reveals responsibility, affection and a domestic approach to life. Those Cancer associated with the number 6 enjoy spending time with families and building a safe environment for those they love. July is the seventh month of the year, bringing very hot, tense days and holiday time.

What Statistics Say: In a year in the Gregorian Calendar, July 6 is the 187th day or the 188th day in case of leap years and until the end of the year there are left 178 days. The thirty sixth day of summer, this is also the National Fried Chicken Day as observed in the United States.

 Cancer is placed sixth in order of occurrence on the list of most common to least common zodiac signs. A sign of negative polarity with tempting energy, this exudes feminine energy and is considered an even numbered sign. This portrays introvert natives who are inward-looking and unbending. The Psychologist is an archetype used when referring to this sign. This only gives a realistic approach to what the stars say about the natural born leaders Cancer’s are and how their introspection and extraordinary sensitivity turns them into great artists and science people. Famous people born on July 6 under the Cancer zodiac sign: Frida Kahlo, Dalai Mala, George Bush, Janet Leigh and Sylvester Stallone

If you were born on July 6, you set your sights on what you want — and then you go after it! When it comes to your career and goals, this is a valuable trait that will leave everyone around you admiring your audacity. However, if you turn this aggressive ambition towards another person, you may become possessed with desire. It’s vital that you learn early on that you cannot control others, only yourself. So, go after your dreams — as long as you’re at the center of them.

July 06 Cancer at Their Worst: Obsessive, bitter, rigid

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.

Spell For Tomorrow – Black Silk Cloth Banish Spell

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Black Silk Cloth Banish Spell

This spell will help you get rid of an enemy.

Ingredients:

Wax

Black silk cloth

3 pins

3 rose thorns

Black silk ribbon

Take some wax, model a human figure as close as possible to the victim, and baptize it with the name of the person you want to strike. In doing this, focus as much as possible on your goal and visualize the victim as if he/she was present.

Take a black silk cloth and lean the wax figure on it.

At this point, you need three pins and three rose thorns. Take the pins and recite the following formula over them:

“This is the tool with which I inflict you, the most daring suffering if you (name of the victim) do not give me peace.”

The formula must be recited every time you insert a pin, in the heart, in the forehead, and in the right leg of the figurine.

Repeat the same operation with the thorns, this time reciting this other formula:

“This is the tool that is capable of inspiring repentance, may you (victim name) finally give me peace.”

The spell must be repeated for three consecutive nights and on the third night, a black candle will be lit and the wax figurine will slowly melt in its fire.

At the end of this casting, collect everything left, wrap it in the black silk cloth, and tie everything with a ribbon (also in black silk) in the shape of a cross. Throw everything into running water.

July 6, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for July 6th, 2025 is the Waxing Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 11.43 days old and 84.1% illuminated with a tilt of 135.092°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 403,208.42 km and the moon sign is Scorpio.

The Moon phase for July 6th, 2025 is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

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 word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

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

Being a Cancer born on July 4th, you are a passionate and ambitious visionary but at the same time you are also in touch with your emotions. There is a lot to say about how you perceive the world, especially when everything goes through the filter of your emotions and past experiences.

You treasure a lot what you used to do in the past. Prepare to read a comprehensive report below.

 The zodiac sign for July 4 is Cancer.

 Astrological symbol: Crab. It is representative for people born between June 21 and July 22 when the Sun is in Cancer. This symbol denotes emotions and domestic spirit.

 The Cancer Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, with the brightest star being beta Cancri. It is quite small covering an area of only 506 square degrees. It lies between Gemini to the West and Leo to the East, covering visible latitudes between +90° and -60°.

 The name Cancer comes from the Latin name for Crab. This is the most common used name to define the zodiac sign for July 4 zodiac sign, however in Greek they call it Karkinos.

 Opposite sign: Capricorn. This is the sign directly across the zodiac circle from the Cancer zodiac sign. It suggests fun and caution and these two are considered to make great partnerships.

 Modality: Cardinal. Shows how much flexibility and pleasure exists in the lives of those born on July 4 and how adventurous they are in general.

 Ruling house: The fourth house. This house placement symbolizes the secure domestic place, family and history and reveals why these have always played an important part in the lives of Cancerians.

 Ruling body: Moon. This combination suggests fluctuations and persuasion. The Moon is the most in touch with human emotions. The Moon is also representative for the philosophy of these natives’ existences.

 Element: Water. This element suggests the innate emotional nature of the individual born under July 4 zodiac and their tendency to go with the flow and accept the reality that surrounds them rather than question it.

 Lucky day: Monday. This day is representative for the sympathetic nature of Cancer, is ruled by the Moon and suggests balance and conscious.

 Lucky numbers: 4, 5, 12, 19, 27.

 Motto: “I feel!”

 People born on July 4 are as changeable as the Moon and we all know how quickly Moon phases change. They are also very sensitive and imaginative. Just like a true Cancer, they possess an innate need for security that once fulfilled they become the most protective and careful being for the people around them. They enjoy staying at home and the chance to peep in the lives of others. They dislike being mocked and entering into conflicts. Those born under this sign like to spend time in familiar company if possible somewhere around water.

 Positive Traits: These people seem to be alluring and fascinating to everyone and appearance isn’t all. Under their soft touch and sensible act lies an excellent leader with great organizational skills. Cancer people usually have a great memory as they are great listeners. They become very protective once their own security and protection needs have been met and taken care of. Those born under this sign are also genuinely curious and can’t wait to find out everything about the people they meet.

 Negative Iraits: These natives need to stop being so devious and contradictory and to temper their combative nature at times. They are too reluctant to transformation and this sometimes leaves them with a lot of issues to deal with. They find it hard to excuse people but they don’t necessarily hold grudges. They are foolish idealists at times and this prevents them from real evolution.

Love and Compatibility:  Lovers born on July 4 are one of the most loving, sympathetic and protective lover. They are attracted to imaginative and active people who can offer them unconditional love and support. Intuition usually helps them surround with only the best of people and they are rarely wrong about one’s character. They are moody and easily offended so everyone needs to put on gloves when dealing with them. As much as they invest in a relationship as easily they can rebound from difficulties once hurt.

 They are likely to fall in love at a young age and have many interactions with different kinds of people. Once they settle for their loved one, they are patient and dependable and seek for peace and fulfillment. Usually a reserved person, once they are in love, everyone around them knows it. They surprise everyone with their warmth and devotion to their loved one, especially because love comes unexpectedly in their life. They are most compatible with those born on 1st, 8th, 10th, 17th, 19th, 26th and 28th.

 July 4 Zodiac people are very attached to the other two water signs: Scorpio and Pisces as they tend to share the same vision of life. In life, Cancer is in a constant search for stability and emotional security and the one to offer them this is the native in Virgo. The lover in 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.

JULY 4 birthday horoscope predicts that you are resilient, reliable and responsible. The zodiac sign for birthday 4th July is Cancer. You are naturally friendly and considered practical. On the outside, you may appear cool or aloof, but deep down you are a softie. Your family is essential to you as other individuals in need of a helping hand. People come to you when they need help.

According to the July 4th birthday personality traits, out of the other Crabs, you are the most uncomplicated zodiac sign. You are caring and objective. It is highly unlikely that people will try to take advantage of you because of this.

Normally, you are a hard working Cancer who is capable of making spur-of-the-moment decisions. According to the July 4 zodiac analysis, you can be overly sensitive. On the other hand, you can be confrontational, but you are the first one to admit that you were wrong and to put things behind you.

Let’s talk about your weaknesses. It is not often, but you sometimes get emotional. Being upset often affects your ability to remain objective and calm.

Also, you tend to shop, to wash away your frustrations. It would not be so bad if you did not have an extravagant taste. Otherwise, you are determined and have a giving nature.

Consistent with the July 4th birthday love compatibility, you may desire to have a love of your own. This love, however, must be a lot of fun, trusting, and generous. You are likely to be the romantic idealist.

It is often that a person born on this day has great insight and consideration for a soul mate who is emotionally attached. Generally, when it comes to your long-term love interest, you are a protective Cancer personality.

Alternatively, you need someone to make you feel whole and alive. You aim to please and are generous and very lovable. Those born on this birthday July 4th, avoid arguments at all costs.

As the 4th July horoscope meanings indicate, you would rather take the blame than to be in the doghouse. This is not to say that you are bashful but rather selfish in not wanting to “sleep“ by yourself. At times when you find yourself in trouble, you are likely to brood about it, or you use the silent treatment to get attention.

The July 4 astrology analysis also predicts that you have an easy decision to make when it comes to a career choice. You can be an ambitious, motivated, and adaptable Cancer. You have an enterprising attitude that may gravitate toward a career that is not normally the first choice for others.

This Cancer birthday person can work in the healthcare field, as you are naturally a caregiver. Those of you born on this day find it easy to learn new things. This ability gives way to an open door that pays you well. With a large compensation and benefits package, you may have an urge to shop until you drop. This is only viable if you do it in moderation.

If today July 4 is your birthday, these Cancer personalities typically are huge exercise buffs. There is no greater feeling than looking your best. Looking great, feeling great and having money in the bank makes you one hot target. You take pride in how you are perceived inwardly and outwardly.

The only drawback is that you may not get your proper rest. You work so hard that you tend to overlook the fact that lack of sleep can have its side affects. You need the energy to perform at work and play. Being well rested puts you in a better mood.

The July 4 birthday personality traits for this Cancerian predicts you are ambitious hardworking and flexible people. You can make standing decisions with a moment’s notice. To some, you may appear to be distant, but you are a pretty giving and likable Crab. You are sensitive yet firm with your decisions.
