With the Moon and Venus in a soft dance, you’re in for a bit of inner growth and a more forgiving view of yourself. As the week goes on, you might be in the mood to put down the familiar and pick up something more true to who you are. You want your ties to be with people and things that mean something. Saturn is there to put a lid on any over-enthusiasm; he wants you to be sensible and watch how others are acting. Money-wise, there is a no-nonsense vibe: Mercury and Jupiter are in a position to make for some sound planning and looking ahead. You may hear some good word about a fund or two that was put off, or run into an old acquaintance with an interesting offer-be open to it, but don’t be hasty. At work, the Sun and Mars are making sure you get the credit you’re due and some more solid responsibilities. Use midweek to get your bearings before you get going. In your head, the North Node is for some hard-nosed but inspired study, in a group if you can. And for your body, the Moon and Venus are in favor of some light activity, a glass of water, and a way to even out your moods.
Love and Relationship
You have a wider range of feeling and a keener eye for what’s right. It’s not about being comfortable for its own sake anymore; you are after a bond that has some respect for where you draw the line. For those in a relationship, you’ll want to have a plain talk about where you stand, what you both care about, and how you show some tenderness in the ordinary moments.
Singles, you might come across someone by chance and feel a pull right away. Don’t rush it. Let it be. Saturn would have you listen to the tone as well as the words, and look for patterns, not just what is being said. A good love is a place of refuge. With a firmer hold on yourself, you will be the one to attract the kind of person who is safe and fair and leaves you room to be you.
Health and Well-being
Think of getting grounded as your remedy for the week. A walk, some easy stretching, or a little yoga can do you some good to let go of what you’ve been holding on to. Have some water on hand and eat to live: fresh, unadorned food like some good vegetables or fruit, and a protein or two that doesn’t leave you heavy.
Your head needs to be in balance, too. A few minutes of quiet, writing in a journal, or a word with a friend can take the edge off if you start to feel it. Don’t sign up for more than you can handle. Make sure you have a way to wind down when the day is done-put the phone away, lower the lights, and you’ll be in for a better night’s rest.
Money and Finances
Now is when you plan. Draw up a course for your savings and set some marks you can hit. Be it a new way to bring in money, some put-by for a big buy, or a half-year outlook, you will see things clearly when you lay them out and decide what is important to you.
It’s a good time to be objective about insurance or any large commitment. Some news on a late or held-up investment may turn in your favor. Should an old contact put a deal on the table, check the figures and the fine print. Be clear, not quick. That is how you win.
Career and Business
Eyes are on you. The work you’ve been chipping away at is starting to be noticed, and with it come some new opportunities. Be consistent in how you put yourself out there, whether in a room or online, and the kind of recognition you want will come to you.
Come midweek, stop and make sure you are on the same page with what you are doing. Put aside the distractions and set your times. If you have a boss, some extra work is a sign of his confidence in you. If you are on your own, being the reliable one is what will make a client stick with you and put you in front of the right kind of door.
Education & Knowledge
You are in the right frame of mind for something with a bit of heft to it, where you can be both creative and methodical. Find a topic that uses all of you and put together a routine for it. Small steps will keep you from burning out.
There is value in learning with others these days. A workshop or some time with peers can put a finer point on your thinking. Don’t try to do everything at once. And a little of the artistic side of things makes for a better experience; some time to think over what you’ve put in will make it stick.
Lucky Number
6. Good for when you need to be level-headed in matters of the heart, the wallet, or your studies.
Lucky Color
Sea green. Have some on you to put you in a calm, open state of mind with a touch of Venusian appeal.
Best Time of the Week
Wednesday, from the later part of the morning on. Everything is in place for a good plan or a well-considered yes.
Weekly Guidance
Be straightforward with your aims and kind with your limits. When the heat is on, slow down. Write it down. Let the steady work speak for itself.
