You are feeling success right now with cash to burn. Avoid being indulgent. Save some money for a rainy day, for a project at home that might require your funds or skills. Make time for relaxing excursions with friends or siblings, maybe camping or travelling. Keep networking possibilities in mind as some interesting new relationships are about to enter your life. You are the center of attention today. All eyes will be on you as you present new work so be ready for the spotlight. Keep your ego in check but enjoy your successes. Ignore jealous voices and trust those who appreciate your fervor and commitment. You're an inspiration to others.

Guard your heart! Passionate Venus slides into a perplexing retrograde until November 13, backing up through Scorpio and your romance sector until October 25, then slipping into Libra and your emotional fourth house. During this time, don't pick up calls from mysterious numbers—or all too familiar ones. A dreaded ex could come creeping around, or you could meet someone with your old flame's unsavory qualities. Even Cancers in the best relationships may deal with a small (or even medium-sized) hiccup. But that doesn't mean you have to run for the hills. Maybe the two of you just need a little more personal space to create that dynamic spark again. Channel anxious energy into a creative project and you could get back to a centered place. Save the style risks until after November 13, too. Venus' backspin could bring some questionable outfits, regrettable haircuts and tattoos that will invariably need a cover-up.
