Horoscopes: Coincidences count

Horoscopes:
Coincidences count
By Imhotep
Sometimes when the universe wants to get your attention, my dear Scales, as people born under the Cardinal Air sign of Libra (23 Sep-23 Oct) are sometimes called, it taps you on the shoulder. Pay attention to what you might initially dismiss as a series of meaningless coincidences.
Scales do not wear their hearts on their sleeves. It is very difficult for others to tell what the secretive Librans are thinking.
Don't let anyone even try to distract you. You know what you need to do and exactly how to get it done. Listen to your inner voice, keep vigil.
Treat yourself to something special. Your emotions will be right over the top, so doing something nice for yourself certainly couldn't hurt. That includes spending time with someone you love, of course.
More than anything, my dear Scales, declutter your home. Throw out rubbish you've been hoarding and watch how your life changes for the better.
And by the way, is someone trying to rock your boat? It is up to you to figure out what's happening and why they feel the need to turn a smooth ride bumpy. Use your powers of observation before you start talking.
July might be full of emotional challenges, my dear Scales, but you are brimming with energy at the moment and ready for anything. But in other spheres of life the month will treat you kindly. Most Librans will succeed in showing that they are worth their salt.
Talk about single-minded -- you'll be absolutely impossible to tear away from your intended course of action throughout July, my dear Eagles, as people born under the Fixed Water sign of Scorpio (24 Oct-23 Nov) are sometimes called.
Children might short your fuse easily, but you must learn to be patient with the little ones, Imhotep counsels you to take a calm approach to difficult situations. Beware of testy impatience. Brooding resentment and self-pity will get you nowhere.
A less self-centred approach to life might lead you to a happier state of affairs in July. Your life would then be full of fun and reverie.
Lay the foundation for future success by moving slowly. You have more time available to you than you think. Plan your next move carefully and examine your resources before you jump into anything.
Assess your resources -- emotional, mental as well as financial. Let your creative side guide you through this phase of life. You might not be too sure what you're doing consciously, but the deepest part of you is dead certain what it wants.
You're not exactly the soul of frugality, my dear Archers, as people born under the Mutable Fire sign of Sagittarius (24 Nov-23 Dec) are sometimes called. So just don't get too crazy by early July.
Moneywise, act like a thrifty, but risk- taking tycoon: be clever with your money and watch it grow.
A dear friend is inching ever closer towards asking for a commitment. You've been thinking about it more and more, wondering how it will all work out. July, my dear Archers, is a great month for promises that are to be kept forever.
Try to be more attentive to the needs of others, especially those who are not as fortunate as you. Also, be more sensitive to the needs of those closest and dearest to you. A mildly tense domestic drama is in the offing, though, my dear Archers.
Try to make peace, and you will be happy -- exceedingly happy. You are at your strongest on your own turf, and will make a seriously positive impression. Don't insist, but do make reconciliatory moves.
With such indescribable happiness will come a great deal of satisfaction and an overpowering feeling of warmth and affection for others.
No one can snatch your newfound happiness away from you in the weeks ahead.
Look out
next week for Imhotep's reading of Capricorn, Aquarius
