A professional setback may be weighing on you. Take a break and have some fun. Amusement with a partner or children will lighten your mood. Avoid risky ventures and ask advice from elders. Be diplomatic in relationships that are tense right now. Career matters less than family right now. You're mature enough to give freely without needing to take. You may encounter an old acquaintance. This is a fine moment to renew associations with father figures such as bosses or mentors and stay connected with the family tree that can be trusted to assist you in times of need.

Reread that message before you assume the worst, Aries. Hot-blooded Mars in Leo squares off with retrograde Mercury in Scorpio today, and a misunderstanding could blow up faster than you’d expect. You could easily read a slight into a text that wasn’t there, or fire off a reply you’ll wish you could delete an hour later. Restrain yourself, or walk out of the room when you feel your temper heating up. The aftermath of any such meltdowns won’t be fun to clean up.
