Do you know anyone who has dual nature? Such two-faced zodiac signs are friendly but they gossip about others behind their backs. They can lie to you without batting an eyelid. However, detecting a two-faced person isn’t easy for everyone. They often compliment their friends when they achieve a goal or change their wardrobe. But they will make negative remarks about you to someone else. What other traits do two-faced people have?

3 Zodiac Signs Who Are Two-Faced

Cosmic beings, welcome to July! As the month begins, we’re fresh off the heels of the start of Saturn’s retrograde through Pisces, which means all zodiac signs are likely to be feeling sleepy, moody, and honestly, horny. Saturn retrograde tends to remind us of moments when we’ve been pushing ourselves to extremes and spreading ourselves too thin. This month is an invitation to infuse more relaxation and fun into our lives, especially as the Sun spends time in the sign of Cancer for the first three weeks of July before shifting into Leo on the 22nd.

Your July Horoscope Is Here — It’s Time To Relax

I deleted all of my dating apps for the first time ever around this time last year. I was completely burnt out on dating, since I’d been treating my love life as a sprint to the finish line (a.k.a. marriage). At first, spending all that time by myself was harder than I’d expected. But I eventually grew comfortable being alone on a Friday night, or showing up solo to a party where I might have brought a date before.

How I Got Back Into The Dating Game After A Long Hiatus

In 2019, Refinery29 posted an article called Black Actors Are Getting Huge Roles In Hollywood, But Still Doing Their Own Hair outlining the “terrifying and high-anxiety” inducing reality of actors sitting in trailers on sets with artists unfamiliar with doing Black hair and makeup. That year, other Black actresses, including Natasha Rothwell‏, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Gabrielle Union, took to Twitter (now X) to discuss H&MU horror stories using the hashtag #ActingWhileBlack. A year later, Kat Graham went viral when she broke down crying during a video for Vogue about having to hide her natural hair for every role she had ever played (including The Vampire Diaries). “One day I wish I can play a character that I actually look like,” she said through tears. When I interviewed You star Shalita Grant in 2021, she talked about starting her own natural hair care line because her 4C hair was ruined on the set of NCIS: New Orleans. “They were committed to me hiding my natural hair, even though a curlier texture would have made a lot more sense in New Orleans,” she told me. “We were literally spending hours in the trailer to try to make my hair something that it wasn't… when I left that show, I had a bald spot in the center of my head.” Graham went viral again just last year when she got emotional in makeup pro Danessa Myricks’ chair because she was finally working with a Black artist. And earlier this year, Academy-Award winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph told me she had to fight “tooth and nail” for authentic Black hair and makeup in The Holdovers.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Neptune is the planet of illusion, romance and mystery, and from July 2 to December 7 it will be retrograde in its home sign of Pisces. Since Neptune retrogrades once a year for approximately five months, it’s a common phenomenon in the cosmos. Our intuition may be curtailed in the coming months, forcing us to look at things for how they are rather than how we wish they’d be. Even though it seems difficult, we’ll be able to muster ourselves and get through the process because we are stronger than we know.

Earth signs are practical, grounded, and reliable. Air signs are intellectual, curious, and communicative. We know that fire signs are passionate with courage and are a massive creative force just as water signs are emotional and intuitive. So which signs are going to be the most protective of their hearts? Which ones are going to be more difficult to get to know, more difficult to get through the walls they’ve put up to protect their emotions, their feelings?

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Clutter doesn’t just make your home look icky and run less efficiently, I will point out the specific reasons why clutter can cause mental anxiety and stress. Clutter to me is a visual explosion, it is loud and very distracting. I cannot focus in a cluttered environment whether in a home, a store, or any venue. This may be why I detest crowds and I avoid shopping in large brick-and-mortar stores.

The color yellow is gorgeous, eye-catching, and downright happy for most people. So much so that it's the main hue in the world-famous happy face—but science says it's not the best color to wear on a date.

In astrology, the planet Saturn is known to be the “greater malefactor,” a karmic celestial being who teaches us important life lessons. Saturn is austere, rigid, responsible and resilient. Once a year, Saturn is retrograde for approximately four-and-a-half months. In 2024, Saturn’s retrograde will run from June 29 to November 15 in the water sign of Pisces. Even though it’s an optical illusion, we’ll feel the weight of this astrological transit immensely on Earth, and it’ll urge us to make extreme decisions in our lives that will augment the future for better or worse. The retrograde offers us time to reassess our options.
