Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces + Feathers
{July 16th's daily horoscope for Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces}
(Capricorn, December 22 to January 19: You’ve been focusing a bit too much on physical chemistry lately, Capricorn. Everyone loves a lusty thrill, but this may be to the detriment of a more spiritual connection that’s been waiting in the wings. Of course, it’s not as if you have to choose one over the other. Today, you come face to face with someone who fulfills your needs in both categories. This isn’t necessarily a new kid on the block. Someone you’ve known for years may surprise you by revealing a previously obscured dimension. Stay open to surprises.)
(Aquarius, January 20 to February 18: You’d like to think that you were above base emotions like rage and envy. Aquarius, even a high-minded soul like you falls prey to your own humanity at times. Today, make friends with such feelings when they inevitably arise. They won’t consume you unless you ignore them. It’s only when you try to stuff them down that they spiral out of control. In “The Artist’s Way,” Julia Cameron advises readers to use jealousy as a map pointing to their deepest desires. Notice what direction your green-eyed compass is sending you in today, then follow it.)
(Pisces, February 19 to March 20: That so-called “serious relationship” doesn’t have to take on such a somber tone. You’re certainly not inspired by the idea of going deeper into a dense, emotional fog. Infuse some lightness back into the mix today–before you have another one of those probing conversations about the future of your love. It’s time for a little reminder about what brought the two of you together in the first place. If doubling over in laughter isn’t part of the equation, you might want to rethink this relationship altogether. This is your life, Pisces, not a gloomy chapter from the “Twilight” series.

Today's Horoscope: Libra, Scorpio & Sagittarius
(Libra, September 23 to October 22: Don't even try to hide your feelings from the ones who love you or from anyone you just met a few minutes ago for that matter. The mood you're in is the one that inspired that ancient phrase about 'wearing your heart on your sleeve.' Basically, if it's on your mind, it will be quite obvious to one and all. The good news is that right now, according to the universe, it's supposed to be.)
(Scorpio, October 23 to November 21: You may still be a bit irritated about yesterday's events, but it really is time just to let go and forget it. Besides, if a certain person you're quite fond of has anything at all to say about it, the type of secrets and intrigue you'll be dealing with will be far from unpleasant. Dim lights, soft music and sweet whispers -- that sort of thing just might be what they have planned. There. Better?)
(Sagittarius, November 22 to December 21: In your not so humble opinion, life is meant to be a series of extended vacations, which certainly explains why you move so much, so easily and with such great abandon. It's not that you're irresponsible, exactly -- it's that you don't want to miss seeing anything. This type of attitude will make your earth-sign friends crazy, but if any of them are undergoing a time period now where things aren't entirely under their control -- their least favorite state of affairs -- share this philosophy. It might help and it can't hurt. Horoscope via Marie Claire.com. Photograph source, Flickr. Tomorrow, July 16th's horoscope: Capricorn, Aquarius & Pisces.)
