Weekly Astrology Forecast: July 5 - July 11

This week begins by offering a wealth of tantalizing clues or creative inspiration, certain to lead to further developments as we move forward. However, we may also find ourselves inadvertently setting up some kind of power struggle. As we step through this week's inspiring but rather nebulous atmosphere, we should be careful not to point fingers or allow our expectations to run wild. Inspiration can sometimes lead to zealotry or unrealistic expectations which play out in unpredictable ways. Monday suggests a plateau of triumphant celebration, encouraging a sense of community. Nonetheless, not everyone will have the same experience and we should take care to avoid allowing excitement to cause our expectations to soar too high. In this environment, it could be very easy to push too hard and create a potent backlash. On the other hand, we may be tempted to see obstacles or challenges as external forces blocking our way, rather looking inward and centering on our own understanding. We are likely to see some sharp divisions develop on Wednesday as the element of self-righteousness emerges from various attempts to mix emotions and intellect. The Moon's arrival in Taurus on Thursday afternoon helps to settle down some of the heightened expectations but the pressure builds again on Friday, trying patience and potentially increasing frustration when things don't seem to be moving fast enough. By Saturday, any unmet expectations are likely to create an extraordinary amount of frustration, leading to a tense and highly unpredictable atmosphere. If we have been able to maintain a strong sense of responsibility throughout the week, the potential for creative accomplishment offers significant rewards as the week ends.
