Your leadership skills are valued at work and at home. You feel a sense of pride in your work and are rewarded for your efforts. Authority figures -- whether a boss or family elders -- offer you praise. Continue to acquire new skills and you will continue to move ahead with great success. This is a time of progress and recognition. Interviews and meetings will demonstrate your poise, confidence and clarity of thought. You see complexities in appropriate detail and are able to make competent decisions. It's a great day to surprise yourself. Your own attitude will ensure your success.

Get a grip on any knee-jerk reactions today, no matter how much a situation fires up. You’ll be an easy target for the troublemakers as the receptive moon opposes persnickety Mercury. But don’t take the bait! Those pot-stirring drama queens aren’t genuinely trying to engage you in conversation; they’re circling the waters like sharks looking for blood. The best way to deal with their petty antics is to ignore them. Take the high road, Scorpio!
