HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAGITTARIUS!

The moon continues its journey through Cancer this morning, encouraging you to check in with yourself emotionally. Look for ways to nurture your mind, body, and soul right now because this lunar placement doesn’t respond well to stress or emotional turmoil. You could find that others are moodier than usual, but you’ll want to be mindful that you’re setting healthy boundaries and not allowing others to dump their emotions on you.

If you can swing it, take a longer lunch today. Several aspects in the cosmos ask you to slow down, especially if you’ve been working hard for the better part of the day. Just remember that the universe asking you to take a leisurely lunch won’t make your workload any smaller, so don’t overextend your time off only to return to a pile of stress waiting for you. Both you and the people around you could be more sensitive than usual, making the task of balancing your responsibilities with self-care a delicate one. Try to cut others some slack, especially if they’re acting unlike their usual selves.

As the day comes to a close, avoid making plans that require you to leave the house. The vibe tonight asks you to cozy up at home with a healthy meal, your comfiest pajamas, and some personal TLC time.

Caution and uncertainty keep us off balance today, despite the Sun’s arrival in Sagittarius which we might have expected to lighten the mood. Sensitivity is high and responsibility is required in order to avoid trying to take advantage of the emotional insecurity of others. We may very well have some good ideas and insights but we are more likely to keep them to ourselves — at least for now. Despite the waning Moon, there is a growing force at work here. We intuitively understand the need for timing and our sensitivity shows our recognition that we need to tread very carefully in order to avoid being misunderstood. However, the need to press forward seems paramount.
