You may try a more cautious approach to love today, but you could be stressing over the wrong things. Instead of spending time calculating what your most strategic move might be to get what you want, let circumstances develop at their own rate. Your impatience can interfere with whatever stability you have already gained. Even if you feel stuck, don’t worry about forcing progress now. Things will make more sense soon enough.

You have specific ideas about how the day should unfold, but you won’t likely be able to stick to your plan today. It’s difficult to manage your schedule when other people are changing their minds about activities that involve you. But you cannot just retreat, because you may need to be the shoulder that someone leans on. It’s pointless now to push your agenda; instead, relax a bit and learn what you can by going along with the flow.

You don’t feel like talking about yourself today, even if you know exactly what you need. You believe that you are wise to keep your feelings quiet now, for you’re afraid of being judged by your peers. It’s true that others may not understand your current motives, so stay on guard. You can avoid questions you really don’t want to answer if you don’t give too much away in the first place. Focusing on other people’s needs conveniently takes the spotlight off of you.

Although you may want to be spontaneous now, it can be intimidating if you are worried about being criticized for your actions. You could feel emotionally raw, as if others already know what you desire, even though you didn’t tell them anything. However, your fear of being vulnerable can get in your way because it has you monitoring everything you say and do. One way to reduce your stress is to practice unconditional self-acceptance.

Your imagination is running strong today with the Moon’s visit to your 12th House of Fantasy; you have feelings that are hidden from others and you probably want to keep it that way. You just need to take a break from being on center stage. But you’re not without drama because you also want to have a serious conversation with someone you love. Nevertheless, use this time to recharge your emotional batteries so you can handle the delicate relationship issues that arise in the days ahead.

You may be wary about expressing what you want today, but too much caution could mean that you miss an important opportunity. You might choose to back away from a relationship or turn down a job offer if it doesn’t match up to your high expectations, but it’s not wise to retreat too quickly. However, something that is worthwhile will likely stand up to the test of time, so wait a few days before making any serious decisions.

Usually you try to balance your own needs with those of your partner, for maintaining peace and harmony is important to you. However, you are more likely to keep your wishes to yourself now because you don’t want to upset the status quo. You may have an idealized relationship destination in mind, yet you don’t want to say anything because you aren’t exactly sure of how you’re going to get there. Don’t worry about the details; just be clear about your desires with the understanding that satisfaction could still take a while longer to reach.

You have been thinking about practical matters of the heart recently, and even if you’re still looking to the future, today is a good time to review your past in order to better understand your current feelings. You may be hesitant about upcoming plans and your caution could motivate you to reassess your options. However, don’t assume the worst, or that may be what you get. Instead, rest assured that your lost optimism will soon return to alleviate your more serious demeanor.

You may not feel as effervescent as you want, but there’s no need to fake confidence if you’re not currently feeling it. It may be better in the long run to show more restraint now instead of taking something too far. Spontaneity comes naturally for you, but today you will benefit by being emotionally reserved. Remember, you don’t need to tell everyone everything all the time, so leave some details to the imagination.

You may not want to deal with an emotionally needy person today, yet your patience with someone else’s feelings can open doors to a new level in intimacy. It’s worth the struggle as you try to determine how much you should reveal now. Naturally, it’s safer to stoically hide behind a wall and say little about your desires, but that could create unnecessary resistance to deepening a relationship. Lean into any fear of intimacy by being radically honest; you might be surprised by what happens next.

You may be so goal-oriented today that others don’t quite know how to react to your intensity. Your emotions are very strong now, even if you don’t want to dwell on them. But any attempt to hide your feelings will just cause you to express them in an unclear manner as someone interprets your detachment as a sign of disinterest. Go out of your way to let others know how passionately you feel about your future.

You may worry that you’ve taken a relationship too far and now want to retreat to a place of safety. Or, perhaps, you have made an assumption about someone that’s not accurate. Fortunately, you are committed to getting the facts right today, even if it’s complicated. Step back from any social pressures you might be feeling and give yourself enough distance to regain a healthier perspective.
