Take time to be alone if you are feeling self-destructive. Be diplomatic and exercise restraint in your relationships. This is a time to look inward, to be creative and meditative. If you have endured a loss, perhaps of a grandparent or grandparent figure, look to friends and loved ones for solace and hope. This is your moment to stand out in your chosen profession. You feel recognized and appreciated for what you do. Let others express their ideas too and give people space. This is a period of opportunity for you. Speak up and air your ideas and concerns. Communication is the key.

It’ll be easy to get swept up in a flirtatious frenzy with friends and potential dates this Saturday, but keep your eyes wide open! A hazy hookup of seductive Venus and Mercury retrograde in your romance zone could limit your field of vision. That sweet-talking partygoer or officious VIP who seems SO impressed with you might have a selfish agenda. You don’t have to don your skeptical spectacles; just use your well-honed intuition to see people for who they really are. Sunday calls for strategical socializing as the Leo moon holds court in your prestigious tenth house. We’re not suggesting snobbery, Scorpio, but if you want to spend time with people who share your level of ambition, you’ll be in good company. Someone greener than you might be looking for a mentor and you may get the hit that you should nobly oblige. What goes around comes around and your generosity could attract someone higher on the ladder who wants to do the same for you.
