You want to explore the potential for fun now, and may grow resentful if you cannot escape your responsibilities at work. Anyone who stands in your way might become the target of your misplaced anger. Fortunately, you are able to compromise if you can acknowledge that your desires may be a bit extreme today. Unfortunately, you can’t always live in the moment; you’ll be happier if you balance your need for immediate gratification with your respect for promises already made.

Your finances might not be able to stretch far enough for you to enjoy the luxuries you think you deserve now. If you just impulsively say yes to your whims, you’ll end up concerned that you can’t afford your grandiose adventure. However, scaling back your plans prior to making a commitment could be your ticket to success. Being practical before the fact is much wiser than having to deal with a reality check while you’re already in motion.

Friendly Venus enters your adaptable sign, but although you’re in your element, unspoken demands could prevent you from wandering off in search of pleasure.

You may be unclear about what you want now that Venus has moved into your 12th House of Fantasy. Although your thoughts are noisy, you probably won’t share them today, especially if you believe that someone could use your words against you.

Stay flexible and be open to others even if support doesn’t arrive in the exact manner you expect.

Although you can accept the importance of adhering to the rules of the game, you are also able to rationalize doing things your own way.

It can be scary to make it up as you go along, but your flexibility enables you to take advantage of the moment.

Venus enters flexible Gemini today, showing you that several different roads can lead to your desired destination.

You could experience mood swings as the Moon returns to your sign today, but each emotional wave may seem more significant than the passing feeling actually is.

Before impulsively reacting to a changing set of circumstances, you’re better off contemplating your response. However, when required to shoot from the hip you do it well.

Remember that a significant opportunity could be lost today if you aren’t willing to be flexible.

You are eager to give others the benefit of the doubt now that charming Venus is visiting your 7th House of Relationships.

Answers come from your internal sense of peace and are not dependent on external circumstances.

Warrior Mars crosses swords with powerful Pluto in your sign today, stirring up conflict with a stubborn opponent.

Remaining open to change could be enough to bring balance to your life.

You are lighter on your feet and quicker with your reactions now that Venus and Mercury are in jumping Gemini. Although you’re able to charm a potential adversary with your sharp wit, your thoughts could be moving so fast that you blurt out the wrong thing.

Simply say that you’re sorry for your blunder and move on.

Talking about your past might seem like a smart idea with three planets traveling through your 4th House of Roots, but it may not have the effect you want.
