Virgo
You've got receipts, a checklist, and the discipline of a saint—but today, take it up a notch. There's money on the table and goals ready to be bulldozed. Your hustle isn't going unnoticed but lean in harder. Be ruthless with your ambition. You don't need a five-year plan—you need action right now. Where you've grown used to taking steps, it's time to take confident, justified strides.
Weekend or not, the timing of the Moon's return to your career sector couldn't be better. Away from the noise of the working week, the Moon is going to spend its early hours aligned with Uranus here and at a friendly aspect to Mars on the income and Pluto on the job front. This time last weekend, it was Mars bringing the three together, with a chance to regroup and this time, with some water having passed under the bridge while in time to get the new working week off to an empowered start. Hopefully, the adventurous lunar vibes of the last few days will ensure this isn't at the expense of embracing the weekend spirit.
At the same time that Venus, the planet of love is not only making this a special weekend across the communication, social and relationship fronts, but has brought the laws of attraction and synchronicity into play, the Moon has helped to bring the spirit of romance and adventure together. Before the new working week begins and life takes a busier turn, there is a chance to embrace both.
With passions running high, if you're unable to do anything positive about your feelings, you easily become frustrated. When trying to approach someone, who would not normally expect anything from you, be careful what you imply or suggest is thought through, or you may appear rather vague and insincere.
Weekend or not, the timing of the Moon’s return to your career sector today couldn’t be better. Not only will this allow you to move into the new working week with your professional instincts sharp from the start, but the Moon is going to connect with the planets that just last weekend came together on the income, work and career fronts for the first time. The Moon will connect with all three today, bringing all the different threads together for an empowered start to the new working week.
While the Moon’s return to your career sector today is good news professionally and especially as this is going to get the new working week off to an empowered start, this is also good news financially. Just days after clashing, within hours of returning, the Moon will not only form a friendly aspect to Mars in your income sector but will connect with the planets on the job and career fronts that can turn any recent financial tension into motivation.
Unrealistic expectations may lead to disappointment that you’ll find rather difficult to overcome. Try to adjust to your feelings and bounce back from any regrets by spending time alone, to reflect on reasons for being so dispirited and reassure yourself by doing something inspiring to lift your fading morale.
