You are relieved today by the feeling that the potential for positive change outweighs your fear of the unknown. Your focus has shifted from the past to the future, but even if you’re eager for what’s next, you still don’t know what to expect. Events are unfolding rapidly and it seems as if you must respond to them immediately. However, you have more time than you realize, so give yourself permission to experience the excitement without trying to figure out everything right away.

Your inability to describe what’s going on in your life now makes you feel anxious. It’s just that you believe you would feel better if you knew where current events were leading. However, you have a wonderful opportunity to envision your ideal world, without the pressure of having to make your dreams come true today. Set aside your most concrete goals for a few days and let your imagination guide you into your future.

It’s as if you’re standing on top of a hill today, enabling you to see farther into the distance. However, you might not have an accurate perception of reality now. Instead, your inner world is projected onto your surroundings, prompting you to imagine a variety of possible scenarios before making your choice. Make certain to look into the shadows, for trouble will surface later on if you gloss over the rough spots. Explore the possibilities, and then head in the direction of your chosen future.

It is challenging today to coordinate your natural desire for emotional security with your current career goals. You may need to risk your apparent safety to make progress at work. But feeling vulnerable isn’t as frightening as the thought of losing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if everything doesn’t turn out as rosy as you wish, you won’t be able to forgive yourself if you don’t give it your best shot now.

Your network of friends and colleagues is changing now, and letting go of your old connections isn’t as difficult as you expect. A recent acquaintance may reflect your current interests better than an old one. Instead of trying to hold on to your past, embrace the exciting relationship potential that’s heading your way.

You might feel awkward today as you grow excited about an innovative idea and lose track of your feelings. Emotional detachment can help you think more clearly, but over-intellectualizing a decision also separates you from your heart. Pay attention to the facts, but don’t forget to delve deeper and discover what you really want.

You’re in a playful mood today with the intelligent Aquarius Moon’s presence in your creative 5th house. Luckily, you are not restrained now by the same weighty issues that have recently been on your mind. Enjoy your newly found freedom and explore different ways to express yourself. Keep in mind that you still need to be a bit cautious or you’ll end up wasting time on an unrealistic idea that leads you in circles.

You may be seeking ways to smooth out your responsibilities on the home front because your freedom is more important to you now than ever before. It’s not that you’re eager to walk out on your obligations; it’s just that you don’t want anyone to assume that you’ll always show up on demand. Thankfully, you’re able to express your needs today without triggering any awkward feelings. Stating your boundaries clearly is necessary if you want others to respect them.

The Aquarius Moon harmonizes with your key planet Jupiter today, expanding your 7th House of Others. Relationship issues that have been stewing for weeks reach a crucial point now, requiring you to take a stand. Thankfully, you’re able to see the positive side of a difficult situation. Remember, your attitude is more crucial than any choice you think you must make, so don’t diminish your power by feeding it fantasies of self-doubt.

Your unwavering belief in a positive outcome goes a long way now to attracting people that truly care about you. Your cheerful attitude has more influence than you realize, making it difficult for anyone to harbor negativity in your presence. But don’t take your optimism too far or others could lose faith in your ability to make sensible judgments. Thankfully, you can be confident without going into denial.

The Moon’s visit to your sign gives you clarity and inspires you to express your feelings. You’re not seeking approval now; you only want acknowledgment and respect. Fortunately, there’s no need to stress over someone’s possible reaction to what you say, for subsequent events won’t affect the truth of your words. Be genuine and you will be accepted for exactly who you are by those who matter most.

You may feel as if your dreams are slipping away today, but happily the possibility of turning them into reality is growing. Still, you might indulge yourself with one more meandering trip through your favorite fantasies now before you release them. Remember, this isn’t about letting go of your hopes; it’s about using your visions to create the future.

You are feeling a strong urge for something that goes beyond your daily routine today. You’re seeking more than recognition and acknowledgment now, and you need to know that your work has meaning. Nevertheless, you’re not prepared to give up the stability that your job provides. Fortunately, there’s no reason to make any changes, even if you are a bit frustrated. Keep your thoughts to yourself for now; it will be time to make your move soon enough.

Intense excitement sustained over several days begins to wear on your nerves. However, you’re not ready yet to settle down and restore tranquility to your life. Although rest and relaxation usually sound like a good idea to you bucolic Bulls, you won’t get a chance to kick back today. In the meantime, create small pockets of peace and quiet so you can recharge your batteries little by little throughout the day.

You would like to take the day off, but it’s hard to shake the feeling that you should be doing something significant today. You might cover your concern with a cheerful attitude, but you won’t likely have the patience to hide your true ambitions for long. Nevertheless, searching for the meaning of life is a long-term commitment, so don’t expect to have an epiphany right away. Thankfully, if you’re sincere about your goals, the fun times will return sooner than you think.

You don’t want anyone to talk you out of your point of view today, even if you realize that compromise is ultimately a smarter strategy. Your resistance may be motivated by your fear of giving up control if you don’t trust someone else. Thankfully, you grow more amenable to someone else’s perspective this evening, once the Moon enters your 7th House of Others. Listening carefully throughout the day helps you find a path that values everyone’s unique individuality, including your own.

You may be more talkative with Mercury in your sign, but it’s harder to make your words hit the target today. It feels as if everything you say is slightly out of focus, and trying harder doesn’t seem to sharpen your message. Instead of narrowing your vision to gain clarity, try looking at your world through a wide-angle lens. Let the details fall to the wayside and concentrate on the bigger picture. A more philosophical approach ultimately gives you a healthier perspective.

Although other people might wish that you were more optimistic and outgoing, you aren’t responsible for their discomfort. If you feel reclusive today, simply inform those closest to you and ask them to honor your desire to be alone. However, it’s smarter now to keep one foot in reality even if the other one wants to escape. You will have more options if you walk between the inner and outer worlds instead of shutting off one in favor of the other.

You have big plans about what you want to accomplish today, yet it might be difficult to actually get much done. You’re hesitant to stir up any trouble by speaking your piece because your ideas are so revolutionary that you’re afraid no one will take you seriously. Instead of trying to convince others that you are on to something significant, just reveal what you’re up to as casually as possible. Downplaying your thoughts for another day or two strengthens your overall message.

You’re not one to avoid conflict if it’s about your survival, prompting you to contemplate what’s worth fighting for and what’s not. You may unconsciously set up a situation today where you’re at odds with someone else so you can better your position. However, it’s smarter now to consciously choose compromise over confrontation in order to keep the peace.

Financial concerns, possibly involving a partner who spends more than you do, can put the brakes on the vacation you have been envisioning. But even if you’re having second thoughts today, don’t make any major changes to your plans yet. Hold on to your dream, for your positive attitude will help it to manifest. If you cancel now, you are quite likely to regret it next week. Take a deep breath and wait out the storm before running off to find shelter.

You may need to pay more attention to your feelings now or you could inadvertently stir up unnecessary drama this evening when the Moon moves into goal-oriented Capricorn. Stay emotionally flexible and listen carefully to your inner voice of intuition. Luckily, your sixth sense will steer you right unless you decide to override it with calculated logic. Connect with your heart and not with your head.

Your subconscious mind is trying to tell you something you really need to hear today, but it’s easier not to listen. If you doubt yourself, you may attempt to convince others of your worth by driving yourself too hard, only to end up overcommitted and overextended. There is plenty happening all around you; create healthy boundaries so you don’t lose focus. Begin by trusting your instincts, especially if you need to say no.

You’re intent on making a good impression with your work today. However, finishing your chores on time won’t help you figure out where you’re heading. Spend time with friends who will give you the reality check you need. It’s not that you’re lost and confused; you just have a lot on your plate and could use an objective point of view as you set priorities for the weeks ahead.

Dynamic Mars, your energetic ruling planet, marches into your 7th House of Relationships on Tuesday to put more passion into your connections. If you’re currently involved in an unequal partnership, a struggle to make it fair could ensue. But if you’re single and seeking, this is a great time to turn up the charm. Showing interest in others requires a willingness to listen patiently instead of pushing your agenda. A gentle touch allows the magic to happen naturally on its own.

Emotions run strong with Tuesday’s earthy Capricorn Full Moon, but if you can keep your head above the fray, you’ll experience a breakthrough or discover new forms of fun the following day.

It’s better to manage fewer tasks with grace than to stress yourself with an excess of obligations.

Travel will inspire you this weekend but if you can’t get out of town, foreign experiences can provide a similar lift for your spirits. Food, music, movies and art from faraway places add an exotic touch to your personal life. Religious and educational activities are also potential sources of social stimulation. Expanding your mind isn’t a dry and academic endeavor now, but is also a creative way to open up your heart.

The psychic Pisces Moon’s presence in your 8th House of Intimacy attracts sensitive people this weekend.

Your desirability grows when sharing your true self and letting your partner feel safe enough to do the same.

The spiritual Pisces Moon occupies your 7th House of Partners all weekend, which is excellent for making new connections or bringing something magical to your current relationship.

This could be a yummy weekend as the imaginative Pisces Moon warms up your 5th House of Romance. It’s a great time for fun and games, especially when you have gentle people to join you.

Keeping emotions light and going with the flow is much more likely to make you a desirable playmate than coming on too strong. Collaboration, not competition, makes everyone a winner.

Entertaining at your place might turn out to be very special this weekend. The hypersensitive Pisces Moon occupies your 4th House of Roots, making you more comfortable when you’re in a familiar setting. Forgiveness is a key to growing closer with someone, so let go of any blame you put on yourself or others. It’s time for a fresh start; when you’re truly finished with past patterns, you can get love flowing freely again.

Compromise and cooperation need to be the ways you operate this week with energetic Mars’ entry into accommodating Libra on Tuesday, followed by the evocative Full Moon in your sign kicking up intense feelings. You might get tangled up in a power struggle or explode with impatience. Either way, keeping your cool can make the difference between maintaining hard-earned trust and tearing it down. Your ambitious drive is admirable, but adopt a softer approach when it comes to love and romance.

Lovely Venus lines up sweetly with your innovative ruling planet Uranus on Wednesday, inspiring you to discover alternative forms of fun. It’s time to let bygones be bygones.

Don’t try to rationalize what is in your heart; your unique brand of vulnerability makes you hard to resist.

The Moon’s presence in your sign indicates that this is likely to be an emotionally rich weekend. It’s helpful, though, to avoid getting lost in the past where old wounds and missed opportunities can haunt you. Instead, this is your chance to be more open to new people and experiences. But if you’re feeling insecure, let your imagination create a more confident character who allows you to be more forthcoming about your desires.

Your normal routine at home has been altered by circumstances beyond your control. Something occurs today that requires you to focus your attention on eliminating a specific habit of yours. However, even your best intentions may not produce the desired results right away. It takes time to make changes that endure; allow the current events to ripple through your life and wait to see what happens before judging yourself too harshly.

Although you normally try to keep things simple, you’re met with a few serious challenges along the way these days. For example, if you are involved in a group project now, your individual efforts could get lost in the crowd. Don’t worry; this isn’t time for personal recognition. Rest assured that your consistent efforts will pay off in the long run and you’ll derive satisfaction from being part of a winning team.

A powerful shift of energy at home may be underway, but you might not feel the full effects of the current changes for a while. Even if everything is moving along smoothly, weird undercurrents are set into motion now by suppressed feelings. If you have something on your mind, it’s better to say it today in order to prevent your frustration from building into a bigger problem. Clearing the air opens the door for better communications ahead.

Too much data can be overwhelming today as you do your best to filter out unnecessary noise. You’re able to minimize the flow of information if you stop asking more questions once you discover what you need to know. You can ease your mental stress while reducing your sense of overload by initiating action. Doing something positive now is much more constructive than just talking about it.

Focus your attention on your finances today, for the simple act of balancing your checkbook goes a long way toward preventing future headaches. Thankfully, you have a heightened ability now to shut out extraneous distractions, enabling you to do the basic accounting that otherwise can make you crazy. Sort through the details, set your priorities and settle down to work.

Nothing sharpens your mind like necessity. Today’s analytical Virgo Moon requires you to focus, especially if a minor crisis brings your attention right back the present moment. Conflict stems from a separation between your head and your heart, so don’t bother trying to justify your feelings. Instead, state them as accurately as you can and then move on.

Your dreams demand a lot of your attention today, and you might have to pinch yourself to wake up. Unfortunately, your external world isn’t as compelling as usual, so you may let yourself slip back into the realms of imagination. Thankfully, this excursion is not a waste of time if you believe that you can be whatever you really desire. Choose your ideal future carefully, since you’ll soon have the chance to turn your fantasies into reality.

Your sixth sense is working overtime now, but you are challenged to trust whatever you’re feeling. Others may question your values today, complicating what should be a simple decision. Modifying your position to agree with your friends can make your life easier in the present moment, but isn’t wise in the long run. Follow your instincts based on what’s in your heart, rather than acting on someone else’s analysis.

You have a lot going on in your life today, including other people trying to convince you that their points of view are better than yours. Although each interaction might seem unrelated at first, the various situations reveal a common theme. Remain open to changing your approach as long as the end result still supports your objectives.

You are feeling even more pragmatic than usual as you set the specific goals for a project you’ve been working on. Avoid getting trapped under too many details today, for you can become so obsessed with getting one particular task just right that you accomplish little else. Perfection is an ambitious ideal, but don’t let it stand between you and success.

It’s tough to settle on any single path today because you’re pulled in several different directions by people with extremely convincing arguments. If only the events in your life would remain stable while you figure out your best strategy. But everything continues to change, so you don’t have time to idly sit around on the sidelines. Make a choice and jump back into the game.

Someone may be overly critical of you today, tempting you to walk away, but retreat really isn’t in your best interest. Check your own emotional baggage to make sure you aren’t being hypersensitive. Instead of displaying resistance, listen carefully to the feedback you are receiving. What you learn now can help you become more efficient at whatever you do.

Life is so much easier when you don’t let the facts stand in your way. Although the truth will show itself eventually, the problem is that it may not be seen anywhere — as fantasy now rules your world. Ironically, if you can imagine something today, you might be able to actually make it real. Magic happens when you cooperate with reality instead of avoiding it.

Your sense of identity and your place in the world are based more on your ideals today than on the current circumstances of your life. Fortunately, this optimistic approach can be inspirational, unless you lose track of the truth. Give yourself permission to do a bit of dreaming. Just make sure to incorporate the most practical parts of your fantasies into reality while you can.

This is a day that inspires creative expression. If you don’t play a musical instrument, at least make time to listen to some of your favorite tunes today. If you don’t write poetry, find a poem that touches your soul and read it aloud. Fortunately, you don’t need a reason now to escape into the beauty of an artistic or intellectual creation. Indulge the muse, whether it’s yours or someone else’s; there are riches waiting for you beyond the rational world.

This is a mellow and meditative day, but you should be aware that too much contemplation might lead to obsessive thinking now. You’re being drawn into deep feelings that haven’t yet surfaced into your awareness. If you feel emotionally drained, get outside and take a walk. Physical movement and fresh air can help to realign your perspective and reinvigorate your soul.

Although you can be quite happy during your visit to Fantasyland, you may be confused by the mixed signals from someone close to you today. Interactions with others are more complicated than they seem, either in one-on-one relationships or in a group setting. The smartest course of action is based upon a combination of compassion and responsibility. Don’t sink into the drama around you; take the high road, instead.

Today may be quite pleasant, but don’t expect everything to go the way you planned. Your list of things to do will likely fall to the wayside early on as you are prompted to step beyond the narrow confines of your self-imposed responsibilities. Give yourself permission to color outside the lines; you can always finish up your chores tomorrow.

You’re trying to restore balance to your life as you dance on a tightrope between seeking meaning and having fun. Others can see you as more lighthearted and charming than you actually feel today; in fact, you might not feel very optimistic at all. But even if you’re not sure that things are going your way, keep a smile on your face. Your positive attitude carries you through any rough spots you may encounter along the way.

Your current dilemma stems from the passion you feel about your closest relationships. You would like to share your emotions, but others seem to prefer it when you stay in the shallow waters today rather than diving into the deep end. You can have your wish now by talking about the most important subjects with consciousness and consideration. Honor your truth, but be gentle in your approach.

You believe that you know the plan, but it gets lost today in the transmission or the translation. Toss out your schedule; let it flow down the drain with the dirty bathwater. Your old agenda has already lost its relevance to what is happening now. However, whatever you do, don’t try to force reality to conform to your predetermined schedule. If you can go along with the predominant currents, everything will work out fine.

If you are planning to buy something for a lover or partner today, you might want to reconsider until you’re thinking more clearly. Even if you end up making a purchase now, remember that you can easily misjudge the value of your present. If you find something aesthetically pleasing, don’t pay more for it than it is worth. You could discover a real gem of a gift by simply taking a little extra time before making your final choice.

You could fall in love with the idea of love today, yet there might not be a simple way to make it last. Beauty seems to surround you, but it’s really within you and not just on the outside. Be careful about confusing your subjective experience with the objective world. Maintaining a healthy perspective on your life now gives you a real shot at transforming your illusions into reality.

Pay attention to a developing situation on the home front today, since a slight misunderstanding could put a weird tilt on everything. The current planetary culprit is illusory Neptune, but, thankfully, real trouble is unlikely. Your day can be built on an unsubstantiated idea and proceed completely on the basis of your assumptions. Straighten out the wrinkles now before moving along or you might need to backtrack later on.
