A loss or a setback, perhaps of an elder, is causing you grief and anxiety. Take time to recalibrate and confide in those closest to you. Avoid risky relationships and those looking to deceive you. A healthy sense of skepticism can be useful in times when you are most vulnerable. Freedom of mind affords you a fresh perspective on life. New thrills are in store, perhaps short travels for pleasure or relishing moments with friends. Exercise wise restraint to avoid trouble when having a mood swing.

Make it your mission to mingle widely today, even if that means being a little fish in a big pond. People from different backgrounds add an uplifting dimension to your day, and you may even be inspired to visit a part of the world based on one of these conversations. Let spontaneity reign. If you feel the urge to take a different route home or check out a new venue across town, follow it. A fateful connection could emerge in one of those places.
