A recent loss may be a source of grief right now. Avoid vices or risky behaviors as they will only lead to humiliation or ill health. Take pleasure in social interactions with friends who will find you warm and engaging. Good fortune is waiting for you in coming days. You continue to feel pulled between home and work concerns. Your emotions rule your head and family is your top priority. You feel nostalgic and impulsive but don't let your emotions run wild. Find time for yourself, to think, rethink and solve internal problems.

Want to reach your goals faster? Focus on the big picture this Saturday, Virgo. Make-it-happen Mars is activating your visionary ninth house—and trading friendly fire with go-getter Jupiter—which means you don't want to get lost in the weeds. Instead, get clear about your overall direction and make sure you're heading down the right path. Scan the horizon for broader opportunities. Is there a class or workshop that could make you more competitive in the marketplace? And might it involve an opportunity to check out a new city? Cast that very wide net! Motivator Mars zooms into Gemini on Sunday, heating up your tenth house of career and lofty ambitions through August 11. Ready, aim, achieve! This transit only happens every couple years, so take advantage—and reach fearlessly for your highest goals. Go the extra mile with presentations and give them your all—whether you're competing for a plum account or claiming the spotlight. Caution: Mars can ramp up tension, so a boss or client could be especially demanding. You may have to put in extra hours or work your magic on a tight turnaround time. If the ROI is worth the hustle, put the pedal to the metal!
