PAGE UPDATED & POSTED: JULY 30, 11:22 AM
GENERAL INFO: Did you know that ARIES is DRAGON's western counterpart. APRIL is the month of the confident, dynamic and delightful DRAGON. The time of the DRAGON is from 7:00 a.m. to 8:59 a.m. The DRAGON's color is aquamarine.
PROVISO: Astrology works if you work to make it work. Of course, nothing much will happen if you don't make it happen. Truly confident people know how to move on and find a happier side of Life. They believe nothing unless it agrees with their own principles and basic common sense. Then, they act on it and move forward!
FAVORABLE DATES: AUGUST 22-31; SEPTEMBER 1-30
CHALLENGING DATES: JULY 30-31; AUGUST 1-21
The last week of JULY: Please make sure your insurance coverage (hurricane, tornado, cyclone, monsoon, flood, fire, mudslide) is up to date. Prepare to rebuild new structures possibly in a much different setting or environment.
I CHING for JULY 28== Today is astrologically ideal to undertake a fresh start. What to do? Constantly stay laser-focused on what you really want to accomplish. Learning from successful mentors and going after your main short-term objective will help you find a more meaningful career (a loving companion). Getting ahead requires initiative and determined proactive effort, lots of patience, and a deep Trust in your ability to succeed (SATURN). The reward is that you will become the person you always wished to be. Remember, to get the best out of Life, share the best of yourself. Time is short, do not waste it.
WORKABLE STRATEGIES== See situations as they are, not as you wish them to be. Have a more practical approach to your general situation. Investigate all the options available based on real facts and figures. Avoid rushing into something that you might come to bitterly regret in AUGUST. When it's right, you will feel it.
I CHING for JULY 29== There is something magical happening as long as you are adequately prepared to make a significant change in the way you live your Life. Indeed, your Life can be changed if you want to do it. In fact, contentment is your responsibility. So, dare think for yourself, and do things for yourself no matter what is going on around you, no matter what others think or do. For those of you who are interested in improving the quality of your relationship, many astrological aspects for this period favor patching up, putting your broken relationship back on track, and developing true closeness. Should you do so? It is entirely up to you. Taking charge of your destiny and making your Life easier to manage will surely make you feel happier and more satisfied. You deserve to be happy, you are worthy of happiness, aren’t you?!
Yi-KING-KOIN== Deception is on the menu, this week.
I CHING for JULY 30: Projects might not work out as planned during this last week of JULY and during most of AUGUST (1-21). What to do? Progress depends on keeping your activities focused. For example, find work with a more stable employer. Again, the going might not be particularly easy in AUGUST but the rewards will be significant between mid-SEPTEMBER and OCTOBER 18.
Yi-KING-KOIN== Deception is on the menu today.
I CHING for JULY 31: If you feel faced with challenges and fears of the unknown, a Life coach, a financial expert, a relationship counselor could put you back on the path to recoverySelf-confidence is your hallmark today.

AUGUST RELATIONSHIPS-FRIENDSHIPS: You may enter a relationship with a mate hoping that what you first see is a bud ready to bloom with the right care and feeding. This might be a case where you might have a tendency to project your desires (wants) and take your wishes for granted. Because of that self-projection, you might misread the intentions of this person. So, please be careful, do not precipitate any move. So? The period between AUGUST 1 to 21 might be particularly challenging if you fail to dump this non-satisfying relationship. Quite possibly this person never loved you as much as you did; not because you are not lovable simply because he or she might be incapable of totally committing to a loving relationship. Flush out this person who may say to you --‘I Love You’-- but still remains ambivalent. Breaking up might be emotionally painful but that pain is far less than the one of being stuck in a nightmare relationship. Move on and give your Self a chance to be happy, finally!
WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Avoid major risk taking. It would be prudent to think carefully before revealing your deepest thoughts, feelings, desires, and pains (financial confidential matters) to someone you don’t know well enough. Finally, avoid mixing finances with friendships or close relationships!
AUGUST MONEY: Challenging obstacles (contractual, legal and money matters) might force you to redefine and redraw your short-term plans. Keep your expectations firmly planted into reality. Don’t let poor financial management or lack of adequate financial planning control you. Avoid contracting any debt. You could have difficulty to pay back your creditors (credit cards). Material stability and financial security is astrologically possible mid-OCTOBER.
I CHING for AUGUST 1-2-: Someone close (possibly a coworker) might suddenly push your buttons. If you have trouble containing, controlling, and coping with your bouts of anger, chances are that you will get entangled in a conflict. In addition, if you face lots of pressure (financial struggles and hardships) please find a way to get out of it. Finally, you could get the assistance of a fully accredited and experienced professional counselor specializing in anger management. Otherwise, expect an all out conflict. Communications need to be improved otherwise you should not expect any mercy from the system especially if you have to go to court and your court date is scheduled for the period between AUGUST 1 and 21.
WORKABLE STRATEGIES: Aim for the best outcome in every circumstance and do your best to make the current cycle of bad luck stop. How? One way to reborn to more constructive times might be to avoid people who have non-constructive attitudes and roller coaster behaviors. Indeed, don't waste your valuable time in fighting back. Instead, transform that powerful energy (anger) into compassionate but firm determination to come out on top feeling better integrated, stronger, and more centered thanks to a self-assured and winning attitude. Taking a jump forward (not backward), that’s how one lives a fuller Life.
From MARC for TORINO, ITALIA: --Dear Maria, based on the astrodata and birthtimes you supplied in your recent emailed questionnaire your relationship with Renaldo will probably become quite difficult and nearly impossible to develop possibly due to jealousy and possessiveness. Astrologically speaking, this relationship has almost nothing favorable going for it. Upset feelings will most probably result in intense battles and possibly abuse. Better seek counseling before you decide to live together, marry, or have children. Why? Again, astrologically speaking, the necessary astrological ‘bonding ingredients’ to make your relationship a durable one are badly missing. Proof; you say it yourself in your email. You write: I feel so misunderstood and alone--. Again, before you go any further on the commitment path, please get couple counseling. It is entirely up-to-you to decide if you should salvage a situation where there is little or nothing left to salvage; and may never have been in the first place. Again, Maria, before you make a final decision, check things out with a relationship counselor you trust. ---- MARC
