Spend your money wisely. One of the best days of the month as you feel energized with a rekindled passion to experience extremity. Your excitement level is high but don't forget the realities in this frenzy. You may have to bear the consequences of your actions so act responsibly. An affair or a serious relationship is in the cards. Go enjoy and have fun!

Nimble Mercury has been zipping through your active fifth house for the past three weeks, but it's time to slow your roll. Starting today, the messenger planet settles down in Leo for an extended stay in your sixth house of health and organization until September 2. The first lesson: Start giving your body the royal treatment with clean food and regular movement. Another thing to add to your day: regular breaks. It's good for your body, your mind and your stress levels—especially while Mercury spins retrograde from July 18 to August 11. With the savvy planet here, it's a great time to get tasks, projects and paperwork streamlined and systematized.
