Can you freakin’ believe it’s July?!?! We didn’t even need to read the stars to see the new month was coming, but it still came as a shocker. Alas, the surprise of 2018 being half over has not made your celestial outlook any less shitty. Just like all the months that preceded this one, this horoscope has nary a professional opinion in it. No matter, you ought to take these missives very, very seriously.
