The sun is traveling through instinctive, maternal Cancer today, surrounding you with intuitive feelings about the people close to you. Several positive aspects set an upbeat mood that should follow you through the day, including a sun-Neptune trine that allows you to easily catch up with family and friends.
An intensely intuitive trine between Mercury (in sensitive Cancer) and Neptune (in psychic Pisces) puts some very clear visions in your head and can actually alert you to certain issues that people close to you are having. This is very much a “I was just thinking about you” energy, and the empathy and support that it produces are unequaled in other Mercury trines.
Finally, loving Venus also moves into the Crab’s emotional waters later in the day, helping you create an empathetic, caring environment for loved ones to relax in. Just a word of advice from the Universe is to take care of yourself so you can care for others. It isn’t selfish to take some time for self-pampering.

DAILY ORACLE
Deer Spirit | Connect with your innocent and gentle spirit.
If you can imagine Bambi, you can imagine the message Deer brings to you today—a message of sweetness, innocence, and gentle spirit. Be delicate today in your communication with other and with yourself. This is definitely not a time for being critical, mean-spirited, or sarcastic. Just as Deer’s heart can be easily wounded, so can the heart of your friends, co-workers, or family members.
