Horoscope for Sunday, July 14, 2019

Moon Alert

Caution: Avoid shopping or important decisions until 6:30 Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Avoid arguments about politics, religion and racial issues — definitely. Nothing will be resolved. Instead, you will only ruffle feathers and upset others. And if you gain no ground, what’s the point? When it comes to these issues, logic rarely prevails.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a poor day for important discussions about shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt and insurance disputes. Today is a Moon Alert, and the sun is at odds with Pluto, which makes power struggles particularly nasty.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Keep discussions with partners and close friends light. Avoid intense power struggles about shared property and the wealth of someone else. It’s a poor day to discuss different value systems, because nothing will be resolved. People will be offended. Cool your jets.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

The sun is in your sign, opposing Pluto. This happens only once a year and makes your encounters with others rather intense. Power struggles will arise. Dealing with people in authority is challenging. In fact, relationships can break down. Go gently.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Avoid places that are potentially crime-ridden or violent. Take precautions because it’s possible to attract violence to you. Therefore, be mindful and keep a low profile. This is the perfect day to stay at home and knit, if you are so inclined. (There’s always junk food.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your interactions with groups and friends are touchy. A friendship might break down. Relationships and groups will compete to air grievances and get to the bottom of things. But there might be a lot of yelling. Who needs this? Not you. Tiptoe away.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a poor day to challenge authority figures like parents, bosses, VIPs and the police. Especially the police. Avoid any situations where violence might erupt because of power struggles. Steer clear of these kind of situations for your own good. Do not get involved.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You couldn’t pick a worse day to discuss controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues because people are chomping at the bit to fight. No one wants to listen to each other. It’s a free-for-all! Sweeping fundamental changes are possible — but unlikely. (Who knows? Fingers crossed.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The Moon Alert is in your sign, which is why you feel indecisive and unsure of what to do next. Meanwhile, power struggles about money, possessions and values might take place. Obviously, this is a bad combo because you’re not sure what position to take, even if you think you are. Do nothing.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is the classic day for power struggles between close friends, partners and spouses. These power struggles could come to a head and relationships could split. Knowing this ahead of time, take a step backward and give the whole situation some breathing space. Be reasonable.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Health problems might concern you. You might also have an argument with someone that is related to a pet, or perhaps something to do with your job. Whatever the case, make no important decisions because it’s a Moon Alert. Avoid ego battles with others.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Parents must be patient with their kids. Don’t throw your weight around. Look for solutions. Listen to what your kids are saying. Meanwhile, do not volunteer for anything or agree to anything important, especially when talking to bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Patience is a virtue.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Jane Lynch (1960) shares your birthday today. You are philanthropic and wish to help those who are less fortunate. You are courageous about facing obstacles in life. Service to others is your theme this year in terms of responsibilities to family and yourself. Therefore, take care of yourself so that you are a strong resource. Invest in the relationships that you value. Tap into your personal creativity and hobbies.
