You may be fast-talking early in the day, but you could grow tired of listening to the sound of your own voice. Once the Moon slips into emotional Cancer, you might think that it’s wiser to say nothing at all. However, withholding your desires can be as problematic as sharing too much information. Fortunately, you don’t need to encourage a melodrama that evolves from an all-or-nothing strategy. Walk away from the internal tug-of-war and just appreciate every moment for what it is.

Financial pressures may turn a wonderful day into one filled with angst. It helps to remember that there are some things that are simply out of your control today, including how much money you have on hand. Still, you’re responsible for specific behaviors that can immediately impact the current situation. For example, spending less can truly work in your favor now. A conservative approach ensures that you’ll have what you need tomorrow.

You might not be very cooperative today, even if you care deeply for your friends and associates. You want others to be successful at whatever they choose to do, but you prefer to keep the energy low-key and not share your feelings. Although conserving your energy is a smart strategy now, it won’t hurt to just nod your head in approval so others, at least, know that you heard what was said. The best plan might be to take a bit of time to be alone so you can sort out your thoughts.

The Moon’s return to your contemplative sign this afternoon may raise issues of doubt about your chosen path. You have a way with words now and might choose to hide your uncertainties behind a mask of humor. Unfortunately, your desire to acquire something beautiful could create its own complicated story. Postpone a non-essential purchase and focus on building trust, instead.

Attending to financial issues can take precedence today over encouraging the whimsical dreams of others. As much as you might want to help a friend turn a fantasy into reality, don’t let your concentration on the material world lapse. You may need to set aside some of your big-hearted generosity in order to get serious about money. Take care of business first so you can offer your support later.

You know what must be done today, but might be paralyzed with fear of doing something wrong. You probably have taken on a lot of responsibility at work, but when you return home later, you’ll still need to handle unfinished domestic chores. Don’t let all your running around during the day distract you from the important personal work that still needs to be addressed. Your desire for perfection doesn’t need to get in your way.

Your romantic dreams motivate you to take action, so you don’t end up stuck in a world of illusions without achieving success. But accomplishing your goals may not bring you the recognition you want or the love you seek. Being caught up in an exciting flurry of emotions is invigorating, yet it’s still crucial to refocus on your core beliefs before taking care of business.

Your issues about your family of origin are more pressing today, possibly bringing a tough situation to a head. Although you might prefer to sidestep a direct confrontation and move on, you can feel your emotions gaining in strength and you know something will have to give way. Naturally, it’s healthier to express your concerns before they become serious problems. Resolve your differences quickly and aim to handle potential conflict before it reaches a critical state.

You may have a variety of things to do today, yet it’s significant that you keep up the appearance of being a strong leader at work and at home. However, you might not know the exact recipe to make this happen. Forget about the how-to book filled with step-by-step instructions. Instead, reclaim your power by trusting your instincts.

Your current dilemma pits your need for independence against your desire for relationship security. Unfortunately, there aren’t any quick fixes to your deep cravings for a meaningful and spiritual connection. You may long to rediscover a missing sense of purpose that you set aside to climb a corporate or social ladder. Instead of expecting everything to make sense today, simply focus on the most immediate tasks and leave the bigger issues for another day.

You have been moving quickly to keep up with all the social activities in your life. Now, however, it’s time to slow down and reconnect with the more mundane aspects of your existence, such as work. But don’t bother making big plans or looking too far ahead, or you’ll just end up in a state of confusion. Save the dreaming for another day while you focus on the current daily grind.

Someone may not approve of what you are doing, but you aren’t sure why. The more you investigate, the more convoluted the whole situation becomes. You may be ready to give up and simply let the winds of change carry you wherever they will. Unfortunately, your current obligations prevent you from escaping today because other people are counting on you and you can’t just run out on them.
