Metro Weekly

Horoscope

June 26-July 2, 2008

Heavenly Round-Up: You’ve been preparing for a while now. You’ve assessed the terrain. You’ve marked a probable course. You’ve gathered the needed supplies. Have you got ground support? Are your maps and charts ready? Training is not the same as going live. Once you’ve begun, it won’t be so easy to back away from this undertaking. Remember to bring your best good-luck charm. If you don’t have one, this would be a good time to acquire one. Send for Capricorn.

Aries: You’re not afraid of the dark. You’ve given up on most of your phobias. So what is it that you think might be under the bed–or was that in the closet? Get rid of your worries by facing them head on and naming them outright. Your fallback position is a surprise to you too

Taurus: If you listen carefully, you can almost believe you didn’t try your hardest, or that you didn’t do the work of several with the will of one. If you’re going to be less than attentive, you may deserve to have this defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. This one is yours.

Gemini: It wasn’t this size or shape when it got started. And at first, you had no idea this would be the direction in which you found yourself traveling. But now that you’re on the way, and now that you’ve recognized the objective, it will be hard to stop you before you’re done.

Cancer: You dragged your feet. You hemmed and hawed. You begged for five more minutes (and got them). But now it’s time to get down to brass tacks and finish up what you started so blithely. You’re ready, capable and soon you’ll even be willing. Ask a Pisces to inspire you.

Leo: You’re bigger, badder and in more of a quandary than ever. It would be cute, but you made so much noise over it that you don’t have any way to back out. Not that you would. You’re so committed to moving this forward. Don’t forget to delegate before Wednesday.

Virgo: It’s not easy, but you’re going to have to divide your attention and do more than one important thing at once. It’s not easy, but you’re going to have to make plans based on very little, and you’re in a time crunch to do it. Supplement with adaptogens and extra B vitamins.

Libra: You’re full of wild ideas, but they aren’t new. Did you forget you used to be a wild-eyed radical back in the day? All this wildness may deepen the perceptual palette of your day-to-day life. Wasn’t this the pick me up you were wanting just a week or two ago? Ask Aquarius.

Scorpio: Presence of mind may be of some assistance. But more than that, you have to have a direction and the will to enforce that trajectory. You’re good enough to go the distance, even if you have space to allow compassion to distract you, it may only build the finish up.

Sagittarius: You know what you want. You know how to get it. You aren’t sure that you have the follow-through to go all the way. If you stand dithering, you won’t get what you want, and you won’t want what you get. You’re going to have to break down and commit, wholly.

Capricorn: It’s the point of view as much as it is anything else. You may have to educate yourself about how others might see what’s happening. You may have to educate others to help clear away the confusion. As you become an expert along the way, raise your rates.

Aquarius: It’s not the end of the world as you know it. It’s the end of the world as you’ve been accustomed to perceiving it. Let go of the artificial filters. Drop the posturing. It’s time to jump in and get your hands dirty. You’ll be surprised at the effectiveness of action. Watch.

Pisces: You were going along quite smoothly. Now you’re redirected and in a most unusual way. Out of left field barely describes where this latest impetus originated. Since the universe is stranger than you can suppose, let go an enjoy the full panoply and wonder of the all.
