Success now depends on you communicating effectively with coworkers and family alike as you make plans in the office and at home. Repairs and renovations may be causing some conflict. Be a good listener and you will receive useful feedback. Health problems may demand your attention and money right now. The world will make demands of you, putting you in a position of responsibility and power. Quality time with family may energize you. Avoid overdoing it and remember that hard work alone isn't sufficient to accomplish the impossible. Planning and smart execution play an equal role in success.

This weekend, Venus is lighting up your eleventh house of friendship and community with two very different energies. On Saturday, she drifts into a close encounter with enchanting Neptune, turning the social scene soft-focus and electric at once. Someone you were sure held zero romantic potential? Sparks may suddenly be flying. If you're single, a group hangout or “random swipe” on a dating app could surface a surprising connection. Already paired up? A little experimentation can freshen things up in a big way. While you're at it, take stock of your inner circle: are the people around you expanding your thinking or keeping you locked in the old way of doing things? On Sunday, Venus links up with no-nonsense Saturn in the same house, sharpening that question considerably. You may feel a sudden pull to distance yourself from a group that's more echo chamber than think tank. Even if your crew is full of free thinkers, nudge yourself toward a new scene or perspective. There's always more room to grow.
