How Your Sun Sign Can Help Attract Abundance!
Prosperity is at your fingertips! Even though Jupiter left Taurus on June 11, the positive aspects of this powerful transit will linger through the remainder of this year because of its connection with powerhouse Pluto. Due to the tenacity of Pluto, anything you launch now will not only stick, but continue to grow over the next nine years.

However, you'll have to free your ingenuity if you wish to avail yourself to greater opportunities for improvement. Here's how your Sun sign can help you attract abundance throughout the second half of 2012!



Aries

Your place to prosper throughout the rest of this year is in finance. While other elements of daily life may grab your attention, your ways of seeking prosperity just happen to dovetail with your higher priorities.

Taurus

You have the Midas touch right now, so your life is free to grow in any area you desire! You may have to sort weeds from flowers ... but those flowers will blossom and bear fruit over the next several years.

Use Cancer to Focus Your Energy and Transform Yourself!
Yesterday -- June 20, the Summer Solstice -- saw the Sun move dramatically into Cancer. This crucial transit involved two major planets of change, Pluto and Uranus, and now, opportunities abound for transformation and rejuvenation! Where will you need to focus your energy and attention this summer? Your Sun sign offers plenty of helpful guidance!

Aries
You may have to deal with a power struggle (or two), especially related to home and family. Try to keep your fighting spirit alive, even as you remain sensitive to others' feelings.

Taurus
Communication could be tricky for you now, so make the most of your innate patience. Take things slowly and remember that a honeyed approach is always more successful than one laced with vinegar.

Gemini
Your finances may need some time and attention, but don't let this get you down. You yourself are more than your money, and if you can reconnect with your values this summer, you'll reap definite rewards!

Cancer
The spotlight is on you this summer,

Your Sun Sign's Element ... and How You Love
What makes your love tick? Is it a deep emotional connection? Physical passion? Perhaps stimulating conversation? Explore the attributes of your Sun sign's element (Fire, Air, Earth, Water) to discover your true motivation in love -- and the key to relationship happiness!


Fire signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius

Since you're a Fire sign, you require action and adventure in love. You bore easily with the routines of domestic life, so intense passion is essential for you in a relationship ... and you don't mind a little romantic friction from time to time. However, too much emotion or possessiveness is a deal-breaker for you -- you need a partner as confident and independent as yourself.

Earth signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn

Plenty of physical affection is mandatory for you, and you also do well with a partner who's willing to plan for a future together -- emotionally and

Who's Your Daddy? A Sign-by-Sign Look at Fathers!
Dads come in all signs, shapes and colors. In honor of giving props to our pops, here's a sign-by-sign breakdown you can share with your father while he tries on his new necktie and gloats over his "#1 Dad" balloon.

Aries

Macho, macho dad -- the super-hero daddy / emperor of the house! This firebrand father is all fun and games until somebody's ego gets hurt -- preferably not his. When it comes to taking daredevil risks, let your Ram daddy show you the way. Hint: Always let him win ... and always wear a helmet when accompanying him anywhere.

Taurus

This is the Rock of Gibraltar guardian who will never falter from his fatherly duties. Let him teach you a thing or two about determination, beauty and sticking to your guns. Sure, he's stubborn as all get-out, but you'll always know where things stand with him. Wimpy offspring need not apply. Hint: As long as you don't mess with his values, money, possessions or potatoes, you're golden.

Gemini
Two devilish daddies in one! This is the

How Astrology Affects Your Interpersonal Skills at Work
After a protracted battle in your workplace, you've been proven right against much resistance. Your Sun sign holds the key to your reaction: Do you shout triumphantly to ensure that everyone knows of your victory? Radiate a quiet pleasure that your judgment has been vindicated? Or something in between?

As an ultra-competitive sign, Aries is likely to proclaim their victory loudly at first. But before long, they'll realize that their vociferousness isn't winning them any friends, so they'll move on.

Taurus will be conflicted. After all, they don't like their achievements to go unnoticed ... but at the same time, they're quite reserved. They'll end up feeling pleased and resentful in one confusing swoop.

Gemini will gloat and poke fun at those who didn't believe in them. They'll be sure to make it clear who's got the brains in the business!

Cancer will remain bitter that they weren't listened to in the first place. And they'll also make sure everyone eats their humble pie!

Does Your Sun Sign's Element Make You a Saver ... or a Spender?
Do you stash away money like it's going out of style? Or does your spending behavior lean toward showing no concern for long-term security? Your Sun sign's element may hold the answer!

Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) tend to be in-the-moment people with an unshakeable belief that money will always be there when they need it. Their belief is: Why should I deprive myself today when my guardian angel will swoop in to help tomorrow? These signs are not the best when it comes to strategic planning, so money doesn't concern them much ... unless they run short, of course.
