If home is where the heart is, why shouldn’t it follow the same stars that we do? Our relationships with our homes are sacred, and like most, could use a bit of counseling here and there. Tap on your sun sign and start making your house more of a home today!
Aries
Become careful about what you ingest and your skin allergies will improve. Food plants and pesticides do not mix. A sharp spray of water dislodges aphids from their feeding, but for a heavy infestation, you may need to go to the master gardener for advice.
Taurus
Watching the 1947 maritime classic 'The Ghost and Mrs. Muir' might start you on a new decorating project. Soft greens, blues and creams create an alternate nautical color scheme to the traditional navy and white.
Gemini
Today is an auspicious day for you to start a nest egg -- a six-month cushion just in case. It's as easy as weaning yourself from the expensive daily latte. At least you'll be on the right track.
Cancer
You have the ultimate power. It is a fact: hornworms, disguised as the leafs they eat, love tomatoes more than you do. But, they hate hot soapy water. Don gloves, pick the worms off by hand and let them soak in a bucket of it -- you will grow fat tomatoes for salads and hamburgers.
Leo
When to harvest that plump watermelon to make your hybrid salsa? If it smells good and sweet, it means it is ready to flavor any recipe you can come up with. If it is not quite there, you may need to make time for an extra trip to the store or a friend's garden. Be careful not to get sidetracked visiting.
Virgo
Usually you are content to go with the flow but reaching out for something better is intrinsic to your healthy growth. Commercial buyers are a conventional lot. Check out seed catalogs for carrots shaped liked beets, which are perfect for growing in an apartment garden on the balcony.
Libra
A bit of tender planning on your part will go a long way. Today -- with the leaves kissed by dew and the sun peeking cheerfully through the clouds -- is the perfect time to take pictures of your well-dressed children in the bustling foliage.
Scorpio
Your grandmother's advice may not apply to modern technology. Use a healthy dose of your own wisdom. Natural isn't always better. Home-remedy stain removers can be harder to get out than the original spot.
Sagittarius
A bit of caution will help you circumvent a minor disaster -- the extra time it takes to cover your bases is worth the effort. Think before you act.
Capricorn
Frugal is not the same as stingy. Your money is there to support you and your family. Living frugally means clipping coupons and shopping around for the best value for the money. Remember, your children are paying attention to your actions.
Aquarius
All rooms should have art, and the choices you make should express your individuality. Your pieces don't have to be expensive, but they should be displayed in your home to increase your happiness. Compromise somewhere else.
Pisces
Living is easy in the summertime. For busy you this is only true part of the time. Cotton and linen fabrics in sun-faded hues conjure a touch of English country. Your guest cottage or spare room is the perfect place to use this languid decor.
