Be the butterfly; transition to a new phase this week
This week (July 20-July 26) is expected to be emotionally charged and transformative.
Change — whether in our day-to-day matters or at a collective level — is imminent.
Life is not a linear extrapolation of the present. But acting on sentiment, in the absence of knowledge, can be misleading.
Desires, and hopes of fulfilling these desires, may seem like an endless road, veering one away from the truth, the reality.
Acting with maturity and a spiritual understanding, on the other hand, may be beneficial.
Each time when you face a situation which appears murky, the universe will send you prompts and throw some light so that you move towards clarity.
Those who seek will get clarity and will be encouraged to act accordingly. Sustaining this phase will help you emerge stronger.
Make the right choice.

[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make efforts every week to bring out decan-specific readings for the twelve Sun signs. Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided into three decans (10 degrees). This makes the reading more focused and accurate. It also provides better cues for the collective whole.
