Weekly Forecast: Grab the Pepto-Bismol, We’re Going to Have Some Fun

Astrology for the Week of July 25 to July 31, 2008

For us, in this hemisphere, when the Sun slides into hedonistic Leo, it is the height of the summer season when we’ve shed our winter blues and hit the streets and the beaches in search of some fun. It is the hottest time of the year and for most the most carefree. We tend to think of our own pleasures and sometime ignore more pressing earthly concerns. Why worry about the rent, baby, when we have that barbecue to go to!

This week, the planet of our value system, Venus joins the Leo Sun, prompting us to go overboard in the fun department. Neptune in Aquarius, opposite this combination promotes fuzzy thinking and a “let’s think about this tomorrow” attitude. With a stress aspect to the planet of transformation, Pluto, however, we are being called on to examine some heavier issues. With Venus representing money, the topic of finances rears its ugly head. How wise will you be in spending your money? At the beginning of the week, Moon in Taurus, in challenge aspect to the Sun/Venus combination warns us about conserving our resources. Some extra expenses in relation to young people may crop up. There is also a suggestion that young people at home need some extra supervision.

On the twenty-seventh, the Moon goes into communicative Gemini. Expect a whole bunch of communications coming in telling you what you should be doing as opposed to what you want to do. Girls may want to have fun, but you still have to do the laundry first!

At the end of week the tension between wanting to get away from it all and from having all it put right in front of you ratchets up another notch as the Cancer Moon faces off with Pluto in Sagittarius and Jupiter in Capricorn in a tension aspect that brings out the cranky and whiney in all of us.

With the planet of the unexpected, Uranus, in tension aspect to a potent Mars/Saturn in Virgo combination, it is wise not to make rash decisions and look carefully at proposed actions. Shooting from the hip is not advised. Since Virgo rules the lower digestive tract, take stomach and bowel upsets as a sure sign that all your summer fun is way to stressful. Stock up on your weekly shopping trip with some Pepto-Bismol, the week ahead is packed with summer fun.

Aries, Leo and Sagittarius—No one likes to hit the road more than you. Whether it is to a local beach or far away climes, the desire is to get as far away from the day to day as your check book can afford. But can you afford to do this? The cosmic suggestion is that you, my fire sign friends, are not tending closely enough to what should be done. Scaling down your plans might be a wise plan.

Gemini, Cancer, Virgo and Pisces—You suffer more than anyone the nervous stresses of the week ahead. This has nothing to do with taking care of other people more than you take care of yourself, does it? Of course it does, and so you must take a little extra care for yourself so that you can be perfectly relaxed enough to take care of other people.

Taurus, Aquarius and Scorpio—You aren’t quite sure why other people are so surly, but you are absolutely sure you don’t like it. It doesn’t help to use sense or reason, because these folks are totally focused on their emotions, not the facts. Since the week is less than productive anyway, try finding some quiet hideaway for yourself, that is, after you’ve waited on the needs of Mr. or Ms. Crankiness in a gesture of appeasement.

Libra and Capricorn—You know what is important, so don’t let other people or their attitudes stand in your way. You refined sense of the social graces will stand in your good stead to avoid the worst of other’s outrageous attitudes. Though you might be called on more than expect to attend to a matter at home at the end of the week, you know exactly what to do to smooth things over.
