Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday July 18
The truth shall set you free, Aries. Today’s revealing trine between the moon and communicative Mercury has you expressing yourself with no filters.

But keep your dignity intact and air your concerns from your heart so that others don’t feel attacked. For example, if you didn’t like the finishing touches a coworker put on a big presentation, gently guide them in the right direction. Your problem-solving prowess is magnified today, so make the most of it. In love, dare to be vulnerable and tell someone how you really feel about them.
