Gambling or a risky investment would be unwise right now. Pursue compelling professional ideas and continue to work hard. Making time for leisure will help alleviate stress. A stranger would be source of support and companionship. New relationships are in the works. Even old rivals are ready to befriend you. These connections are a positive outlet for your excitement and yield helpful alliances. Finances and deals will be made with the aid of those you enlist now. So spend time with friends or groups. Give people what they want. Be there to witness and listen.

“What’s the data on that?” could become your motto in the next three weeks as mental Mercury skips into Virgo and your methodical sixth house, turning your attention to streamlining your systems. Between now and September 10, you have a chance to narrow your lens and factor in all the little—but essential—details that make the difference between an efficient routine and a chaotic daily life. Keep your eye on the trees, no matter how tempted you are to zoom out and gaze at the forest. Since this house governs wellness, your mind will also be on improving your eating and exercise habits. But don’t try to overhaul them all at once. Put the pieces of the puzzle together one by one.
