By no means are you stubborn. Yet ages ago you decided that certain people, places or activities were dull, so dull you’ve done all you can to avoid them. Now, suddenly, events are forcing you to review this, if not get involved with exactly what you’d been avoiding. Do it. You’ll soon understand why.

Once you understand the shakeups in practical, business or financial matters you’re facing are part of a larger cycle of change, you’ll exchange worries for enthusiasm. True, it’s a steep learning curve. But, actually, that’s the point. The current planetary focus is on growth, which means the more questions you ask, the better advantage you’ll take of what’s already come your way and, importantly, what’s next.

Although you’re adept at accommodating the wide-ranging needs of others, from family and friends to colleagues or even neighbours, during July it will often seem they’re determined to be impossible. With powerful events shifting the foundation for everybody, and every sign, there’s no perfect solution or plan. While you can’t stop caring about others, you’re urged to put your interests first, and in a way you rarely do. This includes exploring the options triggered by this unsettled but creative cycle. The results will thrill you.

For ages you've been aware that, as much as you've benefitted from certain alliances, plans and projects, it's time to leave these in the hands of others and turn your attention to very different, but potentially rewarding, activities or arrangements. The challenge in 2025? Where and how to begin. The solution involves yielding to destiny's choices. Risky as going with the flow seems initially, again and again discussions, ideas and encounters, and the resulting plans, will make it clear that you've chosen the best options, for now and for the future.
