You're thinking about new purchases, transformation and repairs at home. Being around loved ones allows you to assess your station in life and form new plans. A change of appearance, perhaps a fresh hairstyle, may be in order. Love is the only true reality among life's many illusions. To love and be loved matter most to you at this moment. If you are not already committed, a new relationship may come your way today. Liaisons of any kind, emotional or professional, will be enriching. These associations ask much of you but you are sure to meet expectations.Things are not as in tune as they might be, but resolution and progress are possible through mutual recognition and compromise. Impact priorities and be ready to give on small points in order to gain on the large ones. Competition can be strong, but it makes you stronger, and this is where you earn respect and trust.

Today, mental Mercury puts on its thinking cap in your expressive, passionate fifth house, where it will continue to push you into the leadership role through November 18. You have a lot to offer, and your job is to let everyone know it. Give your LinkedIn profile a thorough update—and don't be afraid to sprinkle in some of that irresistible Leo sparkle across LinkedIn and the socials. Influencers WILL take note. Pro tip: Polish up all presentations before Mercury turns retrograde from November 9 to 29, when people will demand a higher level of excellence from you.
