Welcome to the month in which everyone has their mental out-of-office responses on, even when they’re sitting right at their desk. You don’t need to be a zodiac doyenne—and believe me, I’ve never claimed to be!—to know that. But given that we’re officially in Leo season, get ready for a heady dose of drama to tail you like the smell of a fart you swear came from somebody else, only they’re gone now and you’ve been stuck with the stink.
LEO (July 22—August 21): Given that it’s your birthday season, you’ll be putting on your once-annual show that plays with light and shadow, probably right in the middle of a traffic circle, or somewhere else that’ll prompt commuters to stop and gawk. You love that sort of thing. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
VIRGO (August 22—September 21): You will learn this August that there’s a reasonable explanation for the big pile of dirt in your life—it’s your fault! You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
LIBRA (September 22—October 21): Your brightness and beauty are often overshadowed by your more famous friends. It’s largely because you’re at your most stunning in the summer, and no one is paying very close attention among all the mugginess. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
SCORPIO (October 22—November 21): Water will come gushing through a ceiling when you least expect it. If you’re smart, you’ll have your camera ready. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22—December 21): Seeking peace and love? You probably immediately think “Maryland,” but alas, this month you will have to seek your good vibes beyond the Old Line State. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
CAPRICORN (December 22—January 21): You can’t escape yourself, even when you’re trying to branch out. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
AQUARIUS (January 22—February 21): This month, you will find water, water everywhere, but all of it will cost at least $25. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
PISCES (February 22—March 21): Your fishy nature will have you craving a nice dip in some water, but make sure to avoid the temptation to swim in Rock Creek. Even you deserve better than that. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
ARIES (March 22—April 21): You will try to revisit something you savored long ago, but in the interim, you’ve set your expectations impossibly high. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
TAURUS (April 22—May 21): Bottomless fries will not fix all of your problems. But honestly, they can’t hurt, either. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
GEMINI (May 22—June 21): You’ll make the responsible decision to skip out on something fun in order to be responsible, but it’ll be an incredible, popular event that everyone else will be gushing about for years to come. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
CANCER (June 22—July 21): There’s a situation coming that will be difficult for most others, but you will benefit greatly. Don’t let it harden your shell too much, or everyone will think you’re a crab. You will find yourself at an immersive exhibit this month, and maybe even two.
