Today requires a little bit of hunkering down, as the energy patterns right now are a bit intense. There's a lot going on, and it can hit you in a number of different areas.

Venus, Saturn and Pluto are all aligned for one. This can create difficult situations regarding your wants and needs, often exacerbated by a shift in your overall responsibilities. When you can saddle up and go on projects, it's a lot easier to deal with. But now, you might not be as certain of what you're actually supposed to do. It's hard to make progress if you don't know in which direction to even take the first step. So you might have to sort what your duties are before getting into anything.

On the relationship end, this can cause a little havoc too, as there's likely to be some shifting there as well. You might not be able to see everything that's happening behind the scenes, and it's definitely not a time where you want to try and control things. The more you push towards something happening within a relationship, the more likely it is that you're going to get something completely different.

Mercury and Neptune hook up today as well, and this can get people to talking about their hopes and dreams. However, these things might exist on the extreme ends of the spectrum right now. Aiming for the sky and missing somewhere far up there still is fine. But you should try to be a little more realistic with what you can reasonably expect today.

Mars is also still connected to Uranus, which can create some fire and tension in personal relationships, especially when one person isn't getting what they want. It's important to not act like a child today. You can say that to yourself before going into a situation, but carrying it out is often a different story.

All of this energy can create a bit of a mess if you go about things the wrong way. So the key is to break things down and simplify them. Don't try to do too much at once. Look for little signs of progress. Go with the flow, and feel your way through anything that seems like a tricky situation. And be patient in your personal relationships. It's the people that try to hit the fast forward button who'll end up getting in the biggest bouts of trouble, so take it slow and make adjustments when situations dictate them, not when you feel like it's not moving along quickly for you. It's a rougher chart right now, but it's manageable with the right approach and attitude. Best of luck.

This is going to be a day to put your head down and get things accomplished. That said, you might worry too much about how to get things done. It'll be easier once you define your objectives, and as long as you aren't doing anything "wrong", you should head in the right direction. Be cognizant of what your actions are leading to though. You can make some adjustments quickly to get things back on the right track if they run off course, but if you aren't sure, you're better off pausing to make sure what something is going to lead to.

...Show some Love...
