July 31st Horoscope
The beauty of July 31st is in its philosophy and the set of moral beliefs that a person with this birthday seems to be born with. Focused and strong, these individuals won’t live in fear, ready to take risks and always believing in the best of outcomes. However, their focus can be a bit off and before they learn what they truly want out of life, they could stumble upon many difficulties showing them that their aim needs to be differently set. If they aren’t stubborn and willingly read the intent of the Universe, they become great leaders, thinkers and preachers.
Riots in their life come right after they discover that their true Self hides away from the image of Self they are trying to present. They will slowly move through personality changes until they learn where their heart really is and what it hid from them in plain sight. Their own inner battle could manifest through problems with authority figures and their father, until they learn to build their own structure and become independent in their sunny glow.
Love and Emotions
Love is their destination and although the story of ego is the first one to show in their relationships, time proves them to be on the right path. As they discover who they really are and separate from fatherly images and childhood experiences that defined them, they become open for relationships with more quality and closeness. Early life could distance them from partnership and set them on an individual, lonely road that motivates them to work on their inner world until they find someone to connect with.
They wish to be seen, not for the image they create but for the sensitive heart they carry within. Their partner needs to be sensitive to everything found behind the act and between the lines, and they need someone practical, grounded and human to show them where they really stand. Often detached from reality just enough to stay in a constant loop of self-affirmation, when they meet the right person they blossom into everything they truly wish to become.
Purpose
However masculine and proactive their role in the world might be, their real focus is on peace found in their heart. Their emotions suffer greatly if they aren’t in tune with the easygoing natures of their inner momentum, and it is the love for oneself that defines the easiness of their path. They strive to connect with one individual intimately, have a calm family life, while some of them reach even higher to connect with people in general and become confident speakers that impress a large auditorium, having followers all around the globe.
What They Excel In
A person born on July 31st excels in every teaching position, work with children and everyone with special needs.

Respectful and filled with belief in our entire human kind, they can make incredible changes to any system, once they are truthfully met with its real positions and manifestations.
