Georgia Nicols horoscopes for July 9, 2017

Moon Alert

Until 9 p.m. Chicago time, you have the “all clear” to shop and do business. The Moon is in Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is the classic day for domestic arguments and family fights that are just ego battles and definitely not worth the strife and stress to you and others. Therefore, zip thy lip. Don’t get hauled into anything. Resist the temptation!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This can be an accident-prone day for you primarily because you might be hotheaded or upset about something. Discussions with others will be way too intense. Don’t take the bait. And don’t steamroller over others as well. Lighten up!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Arguments about possessions, money or control of finances might take place today. If so, they will be nasty. But you have a choice — you don’t even have to go there. Pull back and stay sane and avoid aggression and strife over something that can be settled later.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Difficulties with others will be par for the course today. Knowing this ahead of time, hang back. Don’t get entangled with others. It’s not worth the stress to you or them. You don’t have to prove anything even if you feel the urge to do so. Chill out.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are used to taking charge of things either in an obvious way or a low-key way because Leos are leaders. Today something will not rub right with you, and you might decide to challenge someone. But all this will do is create further conflict. Run away! Run away!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a poor day for important discussions with friends and groups because people will be at loggerheads. Stay out of this battle. Do not get involved because it will be unpleasant and probably pointless. Find something to do that pleases you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a poor day for important discussions with bosses, parents and VIPs because they will disintegrate into nasty arguments and power struggles. You need this like a fish needs a bicycle. Therefore, avoid this. Turn your attention elsewhere. Escape on a side trip.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Do not get involved in heavy-duty discussions about politics, religion or race because they will become intense and possibly even violent. People are at loggerheads today — too eager to fight. You don’t need it. What you need is your own peace of mind, right?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Disputes about shared property, inheritances and anything that you own jointly with others could get ugly today. It’s human nature to get quite nasty about money — sad but true. Since this is a poor day for this kind of discussion, don’t get involved.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be careful today because power struggles can take place with others, even those who are close to you — and why let this happen? Remember it takes two to make a fight. Do not get involved. Walk away. Wait until another day when the vibes are right.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Disputes that are related to your job or even your health might take place today. They might even relate to a pet. The main thing to know is that this is a bad day for disagreements because they will quickly escalate into something ugly. Therefore, practice patience. Be calm and avoid people who aren’t.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Parents must be patient with their kids today even if they have hissy fits and meltdowns. Lots of people are “losing it” today. This same aggressive influence can cause romantic ruptures. Just let this influence pass by because tomorrow is a lovely day!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Tom Hanks (1956) shares your birthday today. You are hardworking. You have a love of history and an excellent imagination. This is your power year! Whatever you have done in the past will now come to fruition. This is a year of big decisions and major achievements. Activity is key. You will be involved and busy. Opportunities for advancement and recognition for your work will happen.
