You have unrealistic expectations today and it’s a mixed blessing that you don’t even know it. Setting your goals too high could lead to disappointment, but it also causes you to reach farther than usual. Even if you fall short of your stated destination, the journey into new territory can be quite rewarding. Keep in mind that your performance is less important now than your experience.

You aren’t so sure about following your dreams, even if you enjoy dreaming about your future. It’s easier for you to cope when you’re dealing with reality rather than when you’re meandering through your imagination. Nevertheless, the visions bubbling into your awareness today can inspire you to take direct action that leads to accomplishing something significant.

You may be pretty easygoing at work today, but you might change your tune quickly if someone gets in the way of your plans. However, you must be careful about jumping to conclusions because your imagination is working overtime and you could get confused about where you are going. Don’t let self-doubt creep into your current decision-making process. If you’re uncertain, wait a couple of days and your clarity will likely return.

Your travel plans could unravel today, causing your anxiety level to rise. But whether an upcoming trip is for business or pleasure, a change of plans will ultimately be for the best. Instead of focusing on what might have been, readjust to the current circumstances and reconsider all your options. However, the situation is still in flux so try not to make any final decisions until the weekend.

You may be in trouble if your calendar is booked so tightly that you don’t have any flexibility built into your schedule. Perhaps you thought that you could come up with a quick fix to your plans if something went wrong, but now it looks like you were being overly optimistic. Don’t panic; it might take a few days to untangle all the variables, but you should be able to put the pieces back together in a way that’s even better than it was before.

It’s challenging to be generous if you’re experiencing a shortage of expendable cash now. Fortunately, you are still able to bring something special to a relationship if you rethink your strategy and make use of what you have. Instead of buying extravagant presents, consider your presence to be a gift unto itself. Showing up with an open heart and simple expectations will probably be sufficient to take a relationship to the next level.

A friend or co-worker may not be paying attention to all the facts today, so you might take it upon yourself to set things straight. Although you don’t enjoy being a taskmaster, it’s likely that others will appreciate your leadership skills now, especially if they are floundering in their efforts. Don’t worry about appearing heavy-handed; just take of business, even if your decisions have a negative impact on those around you.

It’s obvious that your normal way of doing things may not do the trick now; however, you don’t necessarily have a better strategy. Rethinking your approach to work is a smart plan, but your most creative ideas might not be very efficient. There’s no need to judge yourself harshly if your productivity temporarily slips. If you don’t get it right today, rest assured you’ll be able to try again tomorrow.

Your undying sense of optimism usually works to your advantage, but the current opposition between Jupiter’s confidence and Saturn’s pessimism has you bouncing back and forth. Still, the positive thoughts should win the battle as jolly Jupiter radiates joy in your 5th House of Spontaneity. Take cues from your most serious friends today, but don’t let their doubts influence your decisions.

You may need to rethink your domestic strategy now, for without solid boundaries your personal affairs could interfere with your work. Be careful; you can inadvertently talk yourself into believing that you can handle pretty much anything without changing your course. Although you cannot do it alone, relying on your family can only take you so far. Assuming full responsibility for your professional life will make a big difference, but it might require you to partner up with someone on the job.

Yesterday’s optimism could quickly sour as your enthusiasm bumps into the hard practicality of long work hours. Fortunately, you have the extra stamina now to follow through on whatever you start, but you still might promise more than you can deliver. Don’t wait until it’s too late and you end up playing the role of a victim. Instead, act with conviction while you still have enough time to make something tangible happen.

The Moon’s current visit to dreamy Pisces places a veneer of glamour on even the most ordinary experiences. But don’t fall prey to believing your senses now, for that strategy only works if you’re able to maintain a healthy perspective. Mixing up objective reality with subjective thoughts is great for writing poetry, but not so good for mapping out your future reality.
