On the July 2 full moon, your batteries will be running low. With that moon so flawlessly angled to your ruler, Uranus, expect happy surprises.

A lot of drama appears to be going on in your life on a very basic, everyday level, so you will have to stay organized. You had that experience last month, but now you will need to add a critical partner to the mix, and this person will become quite vocal about what he or she feels are your failings. This person may be a romantic partner or someone you deal with at work, such as a client, boss or close collaborator.

Don’t allow this to undermine your confidence. Stay strong, dear Aquarius — fight for what you believe to be true. By next month, you’ll gain a better perspective. For now, take what you hear with a spirit of intellectual curiosity, and you may pick up a few helpful pointers –compromise is not always a bad idea. Only you can decide when to stick to your guns and when to give in a little. Fortunately, your intuition will be very sharp this month, so listen to what it tells you.

At month’s end, it would be easy to misunderstand what is being said to you, so go to great lengths to be sure you hear the right message.

Next month Mercury will go retrograde, so you will go from a schedule that presents too much stimulation to one that brings not nearly enough. Pace yourself by keeping your schedule light. Some months, like this one, a long workout at the gym or finding time to go to the movies is not a luxury but an absolute necessity. It will be a great month to get on track for a healthy lifestyle. Do so at the best new moon of the year for health matters, July 17 and in the two weeks that follow.

Venus, now in a strong position in fellow earth sign Gemini, will bring zest to your love life, especially on July 16 and 27.

The full moon in Aquarius on July 31 could turn out to be a major moment of the month for you when something dear to you reaches a climatic finish. It might be a date that makes you breathless — see what develops!

In a month where getting control over anything will seem like an impossible dream, grab what opportunities you have to enjoy yourself to the fullest. Everyone needs a little fun, and that includes you, too, dear Aquarius.
