Loved ones have been working your last nerve for weeks and it all comes to a head on July 15 when you finally explode. There's no denying that they've had this coming, but given the Mars/Mercury conjunction it's likely you'll say some things you'll regret. Part of you will feel like it's important to be honest while another part will feel guilty. Listen to your conscience and take back some of what you said. The fact that you're being candid about going overboard will do a lot to heal hurt feelings and get loved ones to lighten up.

It's hard to believe that it's not about you, but try on July 13. Love relationships are always strained when Venus squares Saturn and this particular one will be especially stinging because Saturn is in Scorpio. This will bring out a lot of unspoken resentments and unflattering truths. Most of this has to do with your partner's feelings of inadequacy (and maybe even envy) so try to understand. He may stumble over his words and feelings as he struggles to make himself clear, but you need to know that he's trying to connect with you — not make an exit.

You keep looking, but are you finding? That's the question you'll be asking on July 18 when Mercury squares Uranus. Uranus, the planet of revolution, is also the planet of revelation in astrology and this may be the day when the scales fall from your eyes and you recognize that you were too hasty about tossing him back in the water. Yes, there were some very real differences and they'll probably never go away, but it could also be said that these differences make you grow as a person. It's never too late to ask for a Round 2.

Scorpios are famous for never forgiving and never forgetting, but Cancers can be just as intractable when it comes to giving up a gripe. You don't just foster resentment, you will hold onto it as if your life depended on it. This will bring you to an impasse on July 15 when you will have to decide between your grudge and your guy. Breaking up may be the way to go, but if you decide to stay, then you will have to tear up that scorecard. It's been spoiling your love life for far too long.

It will feel like you can't do anything right by your paramour this week. And you're right. You can't. The Saturn/Venus square on July 13 will either make you feel like you're being put through the paces or forced to walk around on eggshells. This is no way for a Leo to live. Go ahead and ask him why he's so cranky, but try to be good-humored about it. It won't be easy for him to admit that he's projecting a lot of his dissatisfaction with himself onto you, so be sensitive and handle that male ego with care.

You've rehearsed the conversation again and again in your mind. You know you should take the high road and that there's nothing to be gained by sinking to his level. Unfortunately, all of that mindfulness will be thrown out the window when Mercury conjoins Mars on July 15. This will bring up all of the anger and hurt that's been building up inside and the only way to exorcise it is to express it. Sometimes you just have to put decorum aside and speak from your gut. Rest assured that you'll feel a lot better because of it.

You love to be beautiful and will do almost anything to keep things that way. This can range from surgical nips and tucks to editing out aspects of your personality that you feel are unseemly. The end result is making yourself over in the image that others have of you rather than the one you have of yourself. It's never a good idea to lose track of one's self-image. It's like Peter Pan losing his shadow. The Venus/Saturn square on July 13 may feel jarring but the day's events are meant to put you back in touch with the real you.

You're not at your best this week with Venus squaring Saturn in Scorpio. Venus squaring Saturn in Scorpio is like attending your high school reunion and seeing all those popular girls who gave you such a hard time appear perfectly coiffed, successfully married and looking like they haven't a care in the world. Who wouldn't feel resentful? You may not be attending your high school reunion this week but this resentment will be directed at anyone you feel is getting special treatment. Keep that stinger of yours holstered. There's more going on than meets the eye and some people may even deserve your sympathy.

You know that friend that you're supposed to just be "friends" with? Well that may be starting to morph into something else as you'll see for yourself when the moon occults Venus on July 18. This could lead to an embrace that goes on a bit too long, an impromptu game of footsie or a back rub that leads to other parts of the body. It's OK if this is something you've seen coming, but if it takes you by surprise then you'll have to do some strategic repositioning to escape a very tight and awkward corner.

If you weren't a part of his family before, then you will be by the weekend. As a Capricorn you tend to keep a respectful distance. Family means a lot to you, but you also feel like their business is their business. That will all change on July 15 when Mars forms an opposition to Pluto. This is when his sibling seeks you out for personal advice, his parents divulge a major secret, or children from a past marriage suddenly transfer their affections to you. It's a little overwhelming, but truth be told you couldn't be happier.

You pledged to spend more personal time with loved ones but that could turn into an empty promise on July 13 when there's another crisis at work. At first you'll go into work mode, but think about what you're doing before you do it. Did it ever occur to you that making yourself available 24/7 actually invites co-workers and clients to take advantage of you? Being on call doesn't prove you care; being on call shows that they can dump their obligations on you while they go off to do their own thing. It's time to change the rules.

Sometimes no answer is an answer. This is something you're going to have to face when that fellow you've been seeing pushes you for a commitment on July 15. You've told him you're not ready, that things were up in the air, and that you still have some things to figure out. This was fine when you started dating but it's been a while now and it's not unreasonable for him to want something more substantial for the future. It would be great if you can tell him yes, but if you can't, then you should let him go.
