Horoscopes: Monday, July 18, 2016

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Don't be too worried about how the future will work out. All you have to know is that it will. And, by the way, there are many who love you and are on your side, wanting you to create and thrive.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your insistence on getting it right might be interfering with your ability to get it done. Finishing is more important than finishing perfectly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are receptive to other people's news. You celebrate their stories. You listen to and remember the details of their days. This is what will put you in the upper echelon of friendship.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Ideally, a romantic partner is also a friend. Whether the friendship comes first or last is beside the point, but for this relationship to work, the friendship has got to be in there somewhere.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your commitment to a project may be casual, unspoken, and private, but it's s strong and will be honored.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You'll give a magic send-off to a bad situation. As for the pain, guilt, regret and general negativity it caused you, you can now firmly say goodbye.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Maybe you're living the dream, but it's not your dream, at least not anymore. You'll wonder when exactly it was that you wanted this. Try to remember your original vision. What's different now?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There is no such thing as a perfect relationship, and some of your favorite ones have been about as far from perfect as you're willing to go. What you've worked through continues to makes you better.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). That song you used to love and listen to often will come on randomly in your environment, reminding you of a certain someone. You'll always have a special space in your heart for this person, even though things have changed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are, at your core, forgiving, loving and selfless. That doesn't mean you always have to behave in such a way to reflect this. Sometimes you have to work to get there, and that's OK, too.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You don't need to prove yourself - or at least you shouldn't need to. The one who makes you feel as though you do: Is this person really qualified to sit above you and judge?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As for the struggle that's eaten up so much of your time lately, what would happen if you gave it up? An easygoing mentality paves the way for good fortune.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 18). When they say, "the rest is history," it's a super-sized accomplishment they are referring to. However, it's about to be eclipsed by something wonderful in the first half of this solar journey. Go public with your goals and find someone to help you stay accountable with your efforts and you'll be unstoppable. Leo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 40, 12, 22 and 14.
