General Daily Insight for July 14, 2024

Dramatic emotions are rising to the surface. With the intuitive Moon moving into secretive Scorpio at 10:53 am EDT, we’re more motivated to keep our feelings mysterious, but it can also invite obsessive or controlling mindsets. The Moon also grumbles at transformative Pluto, bringing chaotic energy that makes it hard to hide anything. It aggravates balanced Venus as well, so we may struggle to express ourselves in a neatly packaged way, as balance and manners fall by the wayside. Channel chaos into catharsis.

Aries

March 21 – April 19

Keeping secrets will be challenging. You might feel like you’re bursting at the seams to tell other people about how you’re feeling, especially if you have the juiciest gossip that you’re certain others don’t know. Alternatively, you might be worried that someone else will spill a secret of yours. Others can likely tell that something is on the tip of your tongue, even if they don’t know the details. Try writing down your feelings or telling someone you trust rather than randomly blurting it out.

Taurus

April 20 – May 20

Issues of control are becoming apparent. Someone in your life might be obsessing over the things you do, whether you’re okay with that or not. This could make a relationship or a friendship feel claustrophobic. No one wants to feel like their free will is being taken away, but at the same time, sometimes we make commitments to others that must be honored. Look for a balance so that you don’t feel like a prisoner, but still follow through on promises you’ve made.

Gemini

May 21 – June 20

Your routine might be stifling. You may wonder if there will ever be room for you to be spontaneous, because each day is filled with exhaustingly similar pursuits. Still, this stability isn’t all bad. You’re allowed to be bored, but you should also appreciate the reliable progress you can make during times like this. Following an impulse to ditch your routine could put you right back at square one! Look for ways to inject fun into your day without losing sight of your goals.

Cancer

June 21 – July 22

You’re toeing a fine line at the moment. The temptation to drop hints about something that you shouldn’t reveal or say something a little scandalous could feel almost impossible to resist. Don’t give in! You’re unlikely to be the one who spills the beans, as you’re definitely capable of keeping a lid on what you know. Even so, it’s a good idea to make sure that you’re not running too many risks in general. The words could slip out in the way you least expect!

Leo

July 23 – August 22

There’s no point in criticizing your soul for feeling things. Whether this is anger, sadness, or fear, you might be telling yourself that these emotions wouldn’t touch you if you were a stronger person, and that’s simply not true. Even trained professionals still get nervous or frustrated in intense moments! Emotions aren’t something to be ashamed of — they’re meant to be seen and respected, then set free. It’s not about avoiding emotion completely, it’s about what you do with it.

Virgo

August 23 – September 22

You could be obsessing over something you can’t control. It’s probably not anything bad — maybe you simply want to make things better for yourself and the people around you. That said, someone’s emotional wounds may need more than a bandage from a pal. No matter how good your intentions are, you might end up leaving this person with the impression that you want them to hurry up and get over it. Let them feel what they need to feel.

Libra

September 23 – October 22

The past might be keeping you clutched close. Someone who’s been a staple in your life for a long time could have started down a divergent path from yours, so you’re not quite as close as you once were. You may have pondered this a lot, possibly exhausting yourself in an effort to think of ways to bring them back into your life. It might be time to let them go their separate way. Focus on your path for the time being.

Scorpio

October 23 – November 21

Personal independence might motivate you to move in silence. It may be something that a lot of people are talking about — perhaps you took action on a major goal without letting your whole circle know. However, this time is more about you and what you feel you must do for your head and your heart. Outside opinions might muddy your inner compass. Those who try to control the direction your life is taking probably mean well, but they don’t understand your journey.

Sagittarius

November 22 – December 21

How you’re feeling could be difficult to explain to others. You might be changing in ways that you weren’t expecting, and people may misunderstand your new self-expression. If someone doesn’t like what they see, they’re going to make their feelings painfully clear. Well-meaning critics could declare that you’re not who you used to be. If you want to confront them, be gentle but firm. Thankfully, you’re also free to ignore such naysayers. They aren’t living your life, so they don’t have to like your choices.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 19

Your eyes may be on the prize, but you need more stability to get there. Even if you know exactly what you want to do with your life or where you’re going, there’s still some sense of uncertainty about how you’re going to make it happen or where you’re going to find your resources. Other people might doubt you because they don’t see the vision in your head, so your faith will have to be the fuel for your inner engine. Don’t give up!

Aquarius

January 20 – February 18

A sense of accomplishment could lead to giving out unnecessary advice. You might believe that because you’ve reached a peak on your journey, you ought to tell others how you got there. What worked for you is not necessarily going to work for everyone else, though. This unsolicited advice might actually drive people away from your methods! If you’re going to offer assistance, see what you can do to support their journey by asking what they need. Don’t offer instructions without being asked.

Pisces

February 19 – March 20

You’re learning to take what you need from lessons. You might have been looking at the world through a more negative lens in the past, taking criticism as a personal attack or perceiving rejection as an indicator that you should give up on your dreams. This is a one-way ticket to never getting the outcome that you want to see in your life, and will shorten your journey by miles. Don’t let the first no prevent you from ever finding a yes!
