Complications during travel may cause your plans to go awry. Make the best of the situation and enjoy food, shows, or concerts with friends and family. The health problems of someone close to you may be on your mind. Voice your concerns and listen to ideas offered. A time when you can balance and reconcile work and home, play sexual and passionate games. Children, friends, even distant relatives are all part of the social scene. You entertain them, amuse and even indulge them, talk to them, communicate in all possible ways from hugs to e-mail.

Today, the planet of illusion, Neptune, slips into its annual retrograde, backing up through Aries and your fifth house of romance, creativity and fame until December 12. You might not be able to fly under the radar, Sagittarius, but if you’ve got something to share with the world, take time to polish it before your big reveal. Embrace attention, but don’t ramp up drama, which could happen with an off-course Neptune here. When it comes to love, keep the rose-colored glasses tucked in a drawer since it’s a little too easy to idealize people now.
