Questioning your values today? You might be wondering about your contribution to ongoing conversations. With some confusing influences at play, it’s important to stand up for what you truly believe in. By openly sharing your thoughts and opinions, you’ll encourage others to do the same. With Venus squaring Neptune clarity is key today, so don’t let things linger in a fog.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Aiming to impress bosses, clients or authority figures? With Venus angling towards Neptune, you might feel the urge to adapt to everyone around you, becoming all things to all people. While it’s tempting to shape-shift to fit in, the real magic happens when you’re true to yourself. You’ll naturally win people over by being genuine and upfront, not by trying to please everyone.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Need motivation? With so many ideas and unanswered questions swirling around, making a choice can be hard. The real trick? Get clear on what “you” want. Once you do, you’ll be galvanised into action. Plus, an edgy Venus/Uranus link suggests a free-spirited friend and their unusual perspective could be just what you need to get those creative energies working for you.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

A powerful mix of energies suggests you’re ready to step into new social circles, which would benefit you. You’ll meet exciting new people and make valuable connections. Yet with a hazy aspect in the mix, it’s wise to assess one relationship more objectively. Trust your instincts. Sometimes they reveal what words can’t. Keep a keen eye on what feels right and what doesn’t.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

With Venus in Sagittarius squaring off with Neptune, be mindful of a potential misunderstanding that could slow down important plans. Clear communication is key, so be sure you’re both on the same page before moving forward. It’s easy for things to get lost in translation when emotions are involved. Be sure to talk things through, simplify your intentions and avoid assumptions.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Do others cut into your day, leaving you with little free time? The current Venus/Neptune angle can be a call to put a stop to this. If someone goes too far and asks you to help with tasks they’re capable of managing alone, the penny may finally drop. You can be so accommodating, and on this occasion, you might realise how this approach serves no-one, least of all yourself.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Be cautious with something that seems too good to pass up. Whether it’s a purchase or an opportunity, what looks appealing now may turn out to be a waste of time or money. Neptune’s influence can blur the lines, making things appear more tempting than they are. Before you commit, take a moment to decide if it’s truly worth your attention. Sometimes, waiting pays off.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Is someone leading you on? It can seem like it. And a confusing blend of energies could make it hard to know what to do about it. You may ignore this and carry on regardless, but the situation might get more complicated if you do nothing. With Venus linking to Neptune, it pays to ask a few searching questions and get on top of this so that you’re certain about what to do next.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

You’re often known as a tough cookie Capricorn but could be extra sensitive over coming days which may surprise you. If you can simplify your schedule, it might make life so much easier. Some self-care could allow you to relax and recharge, giving you the energy to deal with anything. Have no option but to dive right in? A few minutes to regain your poise will help.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

With Venus forging a tricky angle with Uranus, you might wonder whether to introduce an unconventional friend to your usual circle or family. Could it be a little embarrassing? Maybe, but it can also be enlightening. While their bold ideas and quirky vibe may raise a few eyebrows, don’t underestimate the value of shaking things up. Which is just the way you like it!

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

A dreamy aspect can make it harder to handle difficult individuals. You don’t have to please everyone, but you could find some people’s attitude to be unsettling, and this is likely the last thing you need. A lingering Pluto link might mean someone is ready to air old issues that you’d considered resolved. Refuse to be dragged into discussions that serve no good.
