Horoscope


Summer Horoscopes

Aries
There is a mood of progress in the air and you feel everything is going really well for you. A letter or parcel holds a big surprise. This will be a great summer for you.

Taurus
A summer spending spree could be fun especially if this involves an overnight stay or trip away. Short trips are especially enjoyable and there may be a degree of competition in romance. In July be careful and try to stay away from some things.

Gemini
A friend’s making a number of social and travel plans. You’re invited. At first you might feel you've got too much to do, but you will be tempted. June’s a great month to work on new projects. Watch spending in July.

Cancer
In July you might feel someone is trying to keep a secret from you. You could ask face to face or consider phoning them and finding out. There’s a mood for  new life in July.

Leo
A summer romance will fill a little gap in your life if you’re single. Get yourself out and about and mix with others of the same age as yourself. In a group event, behind the scenes work will be surprisingly rewarding.

Virgo
You’ve been working hard to reach a special goal. The end is in sight. The financial rewards or a strong sense of achievement could be the main incentive.

Libra
The sun will be in your travel zone in June. If you aren’t traveling you soon will be. You need something to look forward to. In fact your itchy feet could take you to some interesting places.

Scorpio
You'd really regret it if you allowed someone to persuade you to enter a risky venture. Whether with regard to money or emotions, play it safe and keep everything honest and open.

Sagittarius
Summer sees the  start of a satisfying trend in your relationships.  If you’re single, a new romance could bring you future happiness.  If attached, a close relationship takes on a new and more positive direction.

Capricorn
You’re working hard, perhaps because of a deadline or a need to keep in your boss’s good book.  You might feel badly done to but news regarding a friend or associate’s love-life has the sobering influence of making you appreciate what you’ve got.

Aquarius
Responsibilities are increasing and the summer months ahead look to be busy and demanding for you. So, before taking on anything more, ask yourself whether you will have the time or energy. 

Pisces
Decisions made within the family will have a far‑reaching effect. If new projects are instigated, be sure it is your best foot that you put forward. Don't look behind, think positive and look to the future. July seems to be very busy for you.

What Happened this Year


 If you read The Echo this past year, on the soapbox page you would have seen all kinds of stories and fun things to read. For instance there was always a, “What's in & What's out” column. Which is basically a comparison of what a person thinks was in that is now out, and what they think is now in. Also one of the other big stories that was always on this page every month was a "News You Can Use" column. A few examples of this topic that were actual stories on the echo is “How to eat nutritionally at a fast food restaurant, how to get ready for prom, and how to shed a few extra pounds for prom.”

For the months that have a national holiday or just a day to remember in them we have a column called, “Tis the season.” Which is where we picked a holiday in the next month and would find some facts about it and make it into a story. For instance Thanksgiving, Christmas, Halloween, Mother's Day, and April Fool's Day.  One last thing that was usually always on the soapbox page and one of my personal favorites was the "Student Opinion" feature. This story you could choose anything you wanted to get off your chest and just write about how you felt about it. One of my favorite stories under this column this year was under “student opinion,” and it was about internet access at the school, it went into detail about how students can access different sites and what they are allowed on in classes.
