The loss of someone close to you, a grandparent perhaps, have put a sudden end to all your recent partying and socializing. Now is a moment for quietude and introspection. Take comfort in spirituality or the visions of dreams. Avoid destructive thoughts of actions. Self care is important. Career success is underway or imminent. Whether you take new direction or continue on your established path, expect great results. Rid yourself of fears and face life head on. You can take the ordinary into the extraordinary. Take calculated risks after hearing suggestions from others. You won't be disappointed with the results.

Don’t stray too far from your comfort zone, Cancer. Cutthroat Pluto is retrograde in Aquarius and your eighth house of joint resources—and today it’s forming a tricky square to overconfident Jupiter. A friend could push your buttons as you deal with an intense intimacy or money matter. No need to keep up with the Joneses. Your relationship-oriented sign tends to put more stock in the opinions of others than you sometimes should. Now you could encounter a dicey conflict that reminds you that your own truth matters above all.
