Horoscope: July 22

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your friends are important to you, but they'll never know unless you tell them with words, deeds and gifts. Go there. Tell them sincerely, because this is when they will appreciate the gesture the most.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It's as though you have lavender-scented oxygen and are inhaling life on a whole new level. Breathe it all in with the relish of a first breath. And look out for those Gemini, Libra and Aquarius people as you do!

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll be invigorated by your team. Sure, some them are loopy, and others are bossy, but the overall effect will be enthusiasm. Go with it! Acting with decisiveness will inspire the group's confidence in you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some associate the moon with madness, others with romance. You'll have all of the magnetic power of the moon today—and it's heavenly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Should you stretch, learn and grow, or should you stay comfortable and contained? It sounds like a trick question, and yet there are times when it's better—and it's a very legitimate choice—to stay comfortable and contained.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today you may interact with someone as creative and diverse as you are, and it will be important that you stay focused on your own scene. One topic will lead to another, but bring it back to yours.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Plan, take action and complete the mission. This is easy when it's a doable task: grocery shopping, cleaning the house, calling your relatives. It's all important, but only as important as you make it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Don't take the blame for someone else's mistake, but don't call it out, either. There is a way to be classy and discreet. As you duck out of a bad situation, just know that justice always wins in the end.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your fanciful mood creates a reality that you and yours would love to inhabit. At the right time, you'll bring this down to earth. Before that, it's frothy fun.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The one who doesn't get you seems like an idiot. But have you considered that you are not so easily discerned? Your beautiful complications are not for the faint of heart or the simple of mind.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What you know and what you don't know come together in a yin-yang kind of configuration, and you'll likely be happy with it. Why mess with balance? Seek to know more another day.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you're delivering important information, which you will be today, make sure you're not distracting the listener with anything extraneous.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 20). You'll gain rapport with people who are very different from you and win new customers and fans. This translates into money in the bank in August and a vastly expanding network throughout your solar year. October is for getting the training you need to make a career change. November shows you deeply in love. Virgo and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 34, 48, 18 and 5.
