GEMINI This is an outgoing time for friendships but there are also upheavals over financial issues. A detailed budget reveals a little extra money to spend on the home.

A friend or partner may be adopting a low profile, but can offer valuable help. When you have big ideas, it is often the small things that make the difference.
Photography by Eric Choi, Spyder01 Photography
A person with a great deal of influence can give useful input. Instead of pushing too hard for things, perhaps the way forward is to come up with a detailed plan.
COURTNEY
SAGITTARIUS
CANCER Your mind is occupied by new ideas to implement in your professional life. Don’t go too far because you could easily throw the baby out with the bathwater.
MEGHAN
CAPRICORN Powerful people impinge on your life right now and challenge you to take new initiatives. At times like this it is good to connect with someone who has a grasp of detail.
LEO Partners and family may be a bit skeptical about plans you have to express yourself, but don’t be put off. You are on the right track and need to go your own way.
LINDA
AQUARIUS Your goals and those of a partner may not be in alignment. You prefer to operate under a veil of secrecy perhaps, whilst others are completely open.
VIRGO You may be a little stressed out this month and emotions are not under as much control as you would like. It’s best not to be too impulsive at the moment.
AMANDA
PISCES There may be a certain nervousness about money or resources. A helpful person can make all the difference in helping you to organize matters.
LIBRA Partners and business colleagues are full of brave initiatives and you are not going to stand in the way. One leader in particular is really great to work with.
CAVY
ARIES You want to have an active month and you take a lot of initiatives. Those who are dependent on you take a low profile, because you are not in the mood to compromise.

PRODUCT OF THE MONTH
DPA Gold Omega-3 www.dpagold.com
fashion by Amber Watkins
Picnic Chic It’s time for dining al fresco in the park! Grab your basket, blanket and your bocce ball set and head down to your neighbourhood green space for an easy afternoon. Romp around the lawn in these spotted, striped and speckled numbers and you’ll be sure to attract more than ants!
ZARA Polka dot blouse $25.99
WALMART Bocce ball/ Horshoe set $149.98 Description: DPA GOLD capsules and liquid are the world’s best source of omega-3 (EPA, DHA & DPA) for the maintenance of good health, healthy functioning of the eyes, nervous system and brain. Each bottle of capsules contains 180 easy-to-swallow 500mg capsules (1-month supply). Each bottle of liquid is naturally flavoured with delicious orange mandarin for a natural, great taste. Each bottle contains 120ml of liquid (1 month supply)
TOWN SHOES Espadilles French Connection $89.99
Superiority of Seal Oil: Seal oil is a complete source of omega-3 because it contains DPA in addition to EPA and DHA. DPA is not found in most fish oils. Research shows that DPA is an essential fatty acid with omega-enhancing and cardio-protective benefits. The proportion of omega-3 in seal oil is similar to those found in the human body at birth.
SEARS Picnic basket with wine bottle pockets $71.36
Scientific analysis of the structure of seal oil shows that it is distributed in the first and third positions of the triglyceride molecule, which is considered superior to fish oil (distributed in the second position) because it allows for faster digestion and ultimately absorption of EPA, DHA and DPA. Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA are all found in mother’s milk and circulate in the blood stream under normal conditions. For optimal health, it is important to replenish daily with a complete omega-3 supplement that contains EPA, DHA and DPA. Health Canada, the World Health Organization and the American Heart Association all recommend an increased daily intake of omega-3. A complete omega-3 must contain all three essential parts – EPA, DHA & DPA.

This album is very melodic and very orchestrated - one minute you’re hearing strings, the next minute you’re hearing a marching band and then you’re hearing electric guitar.
Canadian rocker Fefe Dobson has a lot to celebrate. Not only did she preview her upcoming lead single “Legacy” on Degrassi in July, but the Toronto-bred beauty also got engaged to her long-time boyfriend Yelawolf! Don’t worry if you missed
EXERCISE OF THE MONTH
out on hearing Legacy on Degrassi, as Fefe will be officially releasing the highly anticipated single very shortly. Once her upcoming album is released, Ms. Dobson hopes to not only make a tour stop in Ottawa, but Canada and world-
Fefe’s label-mate Roger Mooking also has plenty to celebrate as the celebrity TV chef and rapper has just released his latest album entitled “Feedback”. When questioned about whether or not he was pressured by industry executives to change his thoughtprovoking lyrics to the chains and cars that fill up today’s mainstream rap lyrics, Roger insisted “I don’t care about that, nobody pressured me to change the lane of this album. I started making it in a bubble with a couple producer friends of mine. It was only about 3 or 4 songs that we started sharing with the team/ management company. I called up Chris [manager] one day, and to be honest everyone was a bit skeptical about me making another album, but I had it all in me and I needed to get it out. When Chris came to the studio, he heard 3 of the songs we were working on at that time and he was into it.” Look out for more music from Fefe Dobson coming soon, and check out Roger Mooking’s “Feedback”, in stores now.
