It may feel as if you’re less in control today than you prefer. You might overcompensate by taking bold action, but on the inside you aren’t nearly as confident as you appear on the outside. Becoming more aware of your feelings enables you to react with less fear. Although you can think on your feet better than most, it’s smarter to take extra time for contemplation now rather than responding impulsively.

The Sun in your 5th House of Play is pulled slightly off center by gigantic Jupiter today, making it difficult to express yourself objectively. You want to share everything you feel now, but this level of disclosure might be a bit too much. Although you may claim that you’re protecting someone else from getting hurt, you’re also making things easier for yourself. If you’re going to be stubborn about anything, be determined to grow from your current experiences.

Although you might not be a flag-waver, you still may become so attracted to a political ideology now that it plays on your need for emotional security. If your intentions are pure, almost nothing will stop you, especially if you are willing to bring your own shortcomings out into the open. However, having correct information is crucial, so take the time to familiarize yourself with all the issues before joining the cause.

Your self-confidence is running strong, making you believe that you can overcome nearly any obstacle today. Every invitation sounds like an opportunity you cannot turn down. However, you might say yes to so many activities today that you don’t have time to keep up with any of them. Good intentions only count for part of the battle; setting priorities is just as important now.

Your social life gets a boost today, yet the attention you receive endures if you stay true to your own values. This isn’t about resting on past achievements. There may be powerful forces at work that you don’t completely understand. It’s better not to confront them head-on just yet. Have faith that you’ll know when it’s time to act.

You’re often able to logically decide what’s best, but this doesn’t mean that you’re immune to bad decisions. You may make a choice today for all the wrong reasons. Don’t put your career aspirations ahead of what you know to be good for you personally. Try to keep it all in perspective now, otherwise you could take on more than you can handle. If you do, you’ll just have to go back and start all over again.

Today’s Sun-Jupiter combination lures you toward over-indulging, even if you are doing your best to avoid extremes. Your desire to do what’s right makes your life more complicated than you wish, but you really don’t have much of a choice. You need to do what resonates with your imagination now that your key planet Venus aligns with fantasy-prone Neptune. Be brave and move confidently in the direction that you want to go in your life.

It’s difficult to find balance when you’re being tempted by so many interesting possibilities. But even if your desire to create harmony in your life is strong now, you still don’t want to miss the social opportunities that are showing up. A strong connection with friends is highly favored today. Don’t get discouraged if the peace you seek seems elusive. It will come in time.

Your key planet Jupiter is so stressed today that you could do something foolish. However, you can also express Jupiter’s power in a productive manner by being motivated to make something positive happen. Your ability to think big is both your strength and weakness now because you may be tempted to put your efforts toward a project that is better left undone. Thankfully, applying a little bit of common sense works wonders for you at this time.

You are concerned about getting everything completed that you accepted responsibility for doing. But distractions can change the landscape of your day as opportunities appear that look too good to be ignored. Normally, you might be able to keep yourself on track. However, you don’t have a balanced perspective today, making it difficult to determine what is most important. Keep in mind that bigger isn’t necessarily better.

It might be difficult to harness the power that you have now. Unfortunately, you may have to venture into less comfortable emotional realms to make the most of today’s potential. Although navigating through your feelings isn’t as straightforward as untangling your thoughts, this is where your creativity is born. Letting go of control allows your heart to express more naturally — and this is a step in the right direction.

People may enter your life now to bring you a variety of options, but you could have an unrealistic understanding of the current situation. Try as you might, you won’t likely be able to see what’s truly happening. Don’t stress unnecessarily; the right opportunity will give you the time to think it through. You’re not going to solve the problem today. Be as mellow as you can and see where things take you before making a final decision.
