Enjoy social events but don't overdo it. Avoid the health dangers of vices. Someone in your life, perhaps a relative or mentor, is facing a setback or illness. A vestige from your past may suddenly reappear. Handle change with grace since it is unavoidable. This is an ideal time to seek alliances. New friends are about to enter your life. They are not only going to motivate you but will also enhance your skills and competence. Former competitors may come forward to help you. Ask them out for lunch or coffee. Get to know them better.

So much for a relaxing start to the weekend, Crab. Your Spidey senses could go on high alert Saturday, thanks to a dicey opposition of hair-trigger Mars and investigative Pluto. But are you reading this situation correctly? Your intuition is serving important clues but that alone won’t reveal the whole story. Don't jump to conclusions or start voicing your suspicions to anyone who will listen. Respect people's privacy and talk to them one-on-one to get all the facts. If you DO need a sounding board, make sure it’s someone who doesn’t have a reputation for leaking information. Sunday marks the year’s only Taurus new moon—a potent supermoon—which falls in your socially conscious eleventh house and taps your inner humanitarian. You’ll feel most alive by joining a band of like-minded (and high-minded) souls who want to improve the quality of life for others. Find an organization that’s doing work you admire and volunteer. Since the eleventh house also rules technology, you could find groups online, perhaps in other zip codes.
