Though the Sun has left your 1st House you are still very much in a personal pleasure peak: Mars moves into your 1st House on the 1st and Venus, your ruling planet, moves in on the 6th. You have a lot of energy, personal magnetism—you exude electricity and sex appeal—charm and grace. Your personal sense of style is very sharp right now. You can get your way through charm and grace or by sheer brute force if you choose. You are still very much in an independent frame of mind and should continue to create conditions as you desire them to be. This is a time where the world needs to adapt to you, not vice versa.
On the 6th the planetary power makes an important shift from the upper to the lower half of your chart. For the next four to five months, most of the planets will be below the horizon of the Horoscope, the first time this has happened this year. Career is still important and very successful now, but many goals have been achieved and it is time to take a breather—the pause that refreshes. Shift some energy to the family and to your emotional life. Cultivate your feeling of harmony. Work on career goals by the methods of night—by dreaming, goal setting and visualization—rather than by the methods of day, which are overt action. You are in a period where you are gathering the inner forces for even greater career expansion later on in the year.
Your yearly financial peak is still in full force. In fact, now that Mercury is moving forward, this month’s earnings should exceed last month’s. Until the 14th there are many financial opportunities—and good ones—that are coming to you, seeking you out. Financial windfalls come to you with little effort on your part. You are spending on yourself, on your image and on fun-type activities; a wonderful month (especially after the 6th) to buy clothing and accessories. After the 14th enhance your earnings through good use of the media and through creative sales and marketing. Professional investors should look at telecommunications, transportation, real estate, hotels, restaurants and media companies.
Singles are attracting the opposite sex—no doubt about it—but marriage? Not an especially good time for this—your love planet is still Retrograde and will be Retrograde for months to come. Let love develop slowly and solidly. Existing relationships are harmonious but under review. You will have opportunities to make good relationships even better. Health is excellent. You have a lot of energy. Watch out for haste and impatience: this can cause accidents or injury and is the main health danger. Watch the temper. If someone provokes you take a few deep breaths and count to ten before answering. Enhance your health through scalp and face massage (as in the past few months) until the 6th. After that give more attention to the neck and throat—neck massage will be very beneficial. You are more into health regimes and healthy lifestyles this month and there is a vanity component to it—your state of health dramatically affects your personal appearance.

Last month the planetary power shifted to the lower half of your Horoscope, making career less of a priority. This month we see further evidence of this. First off, 40 per cent of the planets are Retrograde, and this slows down the pace of world events. Second, the planets that are involved in your career are also Retrograde. So, stop pushing so hard in outward ways and work in the inner ways. Build the psychological groundwork for future career success. Also, the next few months are wonderful for reviewing the career and for seeing where improvements and fine tuning can be made. Your 4th House of Home and Family starts to get strong on the 17th, so pay more attention there.
There are two eclipses this month to boot. The first is a Lunar Eclipse on the 7th. It occurs in your 9th House. For students this shows dramatic changes in educational plans. Sometimes it is normal things, like graduation and the like. But often it shows changes in schools or changes of courses. Often there are regulatory changes at the school that affect the educational plans. This eclipse is basically benign to you (though your personal Horoscope, calculated specially for you, could modify this), but it won’t hurt to reduce your schedule anyway.
There are dramatic events in the lives of siblings. Siblings are re-defining their image and personalities during these days. Communications equipment and cars get tested. This eclipse sideswipes Mercury, your financial planet, and thus you will make long-term financial changes—things that have needed to be done for a long time but which you put off doing. Now you are forced to make the changes. Avoid foreign travel this period.
The Solar Eclipse of the 22nd also affects siblings, reinforcing what the Lunar Eclipse was producing. This eclipse brings dramas with family members as well and perhaps repairs in the home. Your dream life will be active during both eclipse periods but pay them no mind. Much of what you dream is merely psychic debris brought on by the eclipses and has little spiritual import or significance.
You are still well into a yearly financial peak. July is a prosperous month. Your financial intuition becomes important after the 12th. Bold financial actions need to be taken. Perhaps they seem risky to the human mind, but if you are following intuition the so-called risk is the safest course. Sales, marketing, communications and right use of the media is still very important financially. Real estate and family connections are still important as well.
Health is good, but rest and relax more after the 22nd. Enhance your health by giving more attention to the neck and throat (until the 5th) and to the arms, shoulders and lungs after that date. Regular arm and shoulder massage will be very beneficial and invigorating. Air purity becomes more important then too. If you feel under the weather get out in the fresh air and take some deep breaths.

Another Lunar Eclipse on the 6th again tests cars and communications equipment (if they have survived the recent barrage of eclipses you have good quality merchandise!) and brings more dramatic events in the lives of siblings and perhaps neighbours. This eclipse, like the previous two of last month, affects students (but here it affects those at secondary school level). This can bring new rules and regulations—changes in the school administration—and perhaps changes of school. But this eclipse, unlike the previous two, occurs in your 10th House and this suggests career change. I feel this is positive change but it can be disruptive; there can be changes in your corporate hierarchy, shakeups in your overall industry, new job offers and the like. Things might seem stormy here but it is leading to your advancement. Probably there will be some dramas in the lives of parents or parent figures as well. Since your career planets are still Retrograde this month you might feel the full impact of this later on. Let the dust settle from this eclipse before making important career changes. You need to do a lot of homework here. This eclipse is a bit stronger on you than the other two have been, so take it easy for a few days before and after. Avoid risky activities.
