The Moon moves into responsible Capricorn on Friday morning, pushing us to strive for ambitious goals and commit to the hard work and dedication to reach them. Usually, this earthy sign inspires us to establish plans and stick to them in a particular order. This sense of control and predictability makes us feel safe enough to trust others and open our hearts.

But stability may be hard to come by on Friday, as the Moon crashes into volatile Uranus and opposes volcanic Pluto. Emotions can be intense and circumstances could shift in an instant. Instead of fighting these tides of change, it’s best to adapt to surprises with as much grace and flexibility as possible. Macho Mars also enters calculating Capricorn on Friday night, adding to the desire to restrain feelings and manage circumstances.

Taking on a practical project or setting a goal that demands some effort is a constructive way to channel this energy. Playing games is fine, as long as the activity itself is more important than the outcome. When one person tries too hard to win, the other can feel like a loser, which is not conducive to intimacy. A lunar move into airy Aquarius on Sunday morning should make things friendlier and less competitive. Inventive and unusual experiences are fun ways to connect if we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
