HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, July 12, 2022. There’s an ample amount of can-do energy in the air today, which can be helpful for those of us in need of some confidence or a push. But we’ll need to be selective and deliberate about what we’re doing so as not to overwhelm ourselves. With Wednesday’s full moon approaching, many of us are busy wrapping up projects and making good on our commitments. However, today’s cosmic weather reminds us to move at a pace that’s manageable. We should be mindful of trying to rush ourselves to the finish line or promising too much.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) — You can create an opportunity for yourself, whether it’s making more money or getting publicity or attention for your work. Don’t leave it up to chance, though — strategize.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) — It’s important to honour your beliefs or stick by your principles. However, try to avoid being dogmatic about them.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) — Don’t feel pressured to mingle or be a part of the club today. Conserve your energy, if possible. You’ll be able to get more done quietly behind the scenes.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) — You’ve got a ton of support or backup at your disposal today, if you choose to use it. No need to do everything on your own.

LEO (July 23 to Aug 22) — You’re feeling extremely productive. Take care that you don’t put too much on your plate.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) — Confidence will get you places. Don’t let fear hold you back.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) — You’re focused largely on your personal life, and the outside world isn’t much of a priority now. Put your notifications on silent if possible.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) — Being open or direct with others gets you the results you need. Also, think about delegating a few tasks.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) — You can find the motivation needed to get any outstanding tasks or projects out of the way today. Getting items off your to-do list now allows you to play later.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) — You’re feeling a sense of pride today around who you are or the talented things you’re able to do. Don’t let self-doubt kill your joy.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) — If you’re in a bad mood, be mindful of taking it out on others. Lay low and take a timeout instead.

PISCES (Feb 19 to March 20) — Where is your community the strongest? Where is the place you feel most at home? Spend time in that space today.

FOR TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

You’re scrappy and ambitious. You keep your eyes on the prize. Although you’re never short on inspiration or new ideas, you take your time in seeing them through. Staying busy and productive feels good to you. However, you can play just as hard as you work. Thanks to your bold and fearless attitude, you’re not afraid to stand up for your beliefs. You like doing things your way. Though you may need to be a bit more flexible at times, your spirit is strong. This year, it’s less about just doing the work and more about doing something meaningful.
