Work and money troubles consume your mind at present. Take a short trip to distract yourself. Write, photograph, engage in activities that satisfy your creative spirit. New opportunities await and along with them another source of income. You are easily influenced by others today. Try not to take matters too seriously. Opt for a change in appearance and pursue rewarding work. Be creative and upbeat. A bright outlook will improve your focus and health. The right attitude is vital and will make you feel in control today.

Before you say yes to the first tempting invite that comes your way this Saturday, stop and really think it through. Sure, it sounds like fun, but is that really the best use of your time and energy? As convivial Venus gets snared by Mercury retrograde in your intense and soulful eighth house, you might develop a new metric for assessing how to best utilize your “me time.” Is there someone or something even more deserving of your attention? That’s the thing to do! The self-sovereign energy only grows stronger on Sunday when the moon sweeps through Leo and commands you to put yourself first. This isn’t narcissistic, Leo, it’s actually in the best interest of everyone around you that your tanks be filled. That said, don’t expect others to be your on-demand “charging station.” Venture out on your own if your favorite playmates aren’t available on your timeline. You’ll enjoy your own company greatly.
