July 16

**July** **16** is the 197th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar and the 198th in leap years.

Those born on **July 16** they are swept up by romantic impulses again and again, impulses related to love, adventure, fantastic events and exceptional people. These individuals seek excitement and are often frustrated with the routine of everyday life. What sets them apart from the rest is the passionate energy they pour into their projects. Idealists at heart, they need to believe in what they do, and their work often becomes something of a crusade. But these romantics have another face: that of their developed mental power. Many of those born on this day see themselves as logical creatures, believing in the power of mind over matter. However, what they say can be very different from what they do. Although it is possible to recognize the logic of his statements, when you pay attention to the way they communicate, you hear the language of emotion. Indeed, their speeches can resemble a sermon as they seek to convince others of what is practical, consistent, and feasible (at least for them). Conflicts often arise between your rational and emotional facets. For example, they are likely to be intimately disturbed by passion and consequently adopt a rigid discipline to control their energies. Unfortunately, this can lead to inflexible behavior that can lead to frustration and alienate others. Meanwhile, the passion continues to boil within him.

Many of these individuals cannot help but proselytize, using their curious mix of logic and emotion to gain converts. They must be careful not to disregard established values ​​and not to deprive others of the opportunity to learn for themselves through study and personal experience. Conventional people born on July 16 may have an ordinary job and a seemingly nondescript life. But if you look at the books they read, the movies they like, or their favorite TV shows, you'll find a clue to their fantasies. In a way, they must express their desire to fly and to make others fly, since the feeling of rising above the world is what makes life meaningful for them.

Love can have negative effects on those born on this day, either because of the depth or the frequency with which they fall in love. In any case, it is practically impossible to separate a person born on this day from the object of their love, no matter how few opportunities they have to be reciprocated. They see barriers, difficulties, and frustrations as essential ingredients of a romantic adventure. Convinced of the reality of their delusions, they go ahead undeterred. If the object of his love is not a person but a place, a thing or an experience, he will maintain his power over them as long as they fail to possess him. In this sense, those born on July 16 prefer to wish than to get what they want, and their dreams can become the perfect substitute for action.

**NUMBERS AND PLANETS**

Those born on the sixteenth day of the month are ruled by the number 7 (1+6 = 7) and by the planet Neptune. Those ruled by the number 7 do not always put their ideas into practice and easily lose contact with reality, a characteristic that in those born on July 16 is exacerbated by the influence of the Moon (ruler of Cancer). Neptune is the planet of dreams, fantasies, and religious sentiment. Since those born on July 16 already have tendencies in this direction, they should be careful not to get carried away by their emotions. Those ruled by the number 7 are not at all cautious in economic matters, so they can put the family in trouble. Consequently, a good accountant or manager could provide them with invaluable help.

**TAROT**

The sixteenth card of the Major Arcana is The Tower, which in one version of the Tarot shows a king falling from a tower struck by lightning and the tower's builder dying from a blow to the head. The Tower symbolizes the ephemeral nature of material structures and also of the relationships and aspirations of earthly life. The changes can be sudden and radical. From a positive point of view, this card augurs the ability to resign oneself to apparent catastrophes while facing and overcoming challenges; from a negative point of view, an unjustified rise to the heights, as well as the possibility of being destroyed by our own creations, a particularly important risk for those born on July 16, who easily succumb to the deceptive lure of unrealistic companies .

**HEALTH**

The main danger to the health of those born on July 16 is their firm conviction that they are capable of overcoming any physical problem through mental power. These individuals must learn that serious disorders require the intervention of a physician, surgeon, or osteopath. However, there is no doubt that positive thinking can work wonders, and the ability of these individuals to prevent stress and program their diet (albeit with an original approach) is to be commended.

**TIPS**
