The Knight Of Cups

July is a month to give free rein to your more creative, romantic side! Taurus can sometimes become a little hemmed in by a sense of duty so that you neglect or suppress your deeper feelings.

This may manifest in such things as hedonistic holidays and invitations to some truly intriguing Summer events. Let go a little, Taurus.

With emotional matters, developments in mid July ask you to follow your heart. It may be time to decide what aspects of a relationship makes truly happy - or unhappy.
