A loss or a setback, perhaps of an elder, is causing you grief and anxiety. Take time to recalibrate and confide in those closest to you. Avoid risky relationships and those looking to deceive you. A healthy sense of skepticism can be useful in times when you are most vulnerable. A busier day than normal. The day may be centered on taking extra responsibilities, short trips, phone calls, emails, faxes and other communications -- social media, notifications and alerts. New connections may be made and old ones may be revived. Speak with care to avoid saying things you yourself would not want to hear.

If your usual hyperdrive feels a little dialed down today, don’t fight the temporary lull. With the Sun and moon harmonizing in the most introspective zones of your chart, pressing pause could actually move you forward. Step back, breathe, and make space for inspiration to surface. A midday yoga class, a spontaneous massage, or even a quiet walk with a trusted friend could spark a breakthrough. And if the stars align for a discreet afternoon rendezvous? Well… some ideas are best explored off the clock.
