You know there are things you want to finish before the new year begins, but you may be too distracted to accomplish much today. You might try to shift the blame to others for your lack of productivity, but the truth is you are eager to jump on someone else's idea. Although there's nothing wrong with letting your friends and family set the agenda for the day, take responsibility for allowing it to happen. Being social and going with the flow does not mean giving up your power in the process.
Other people's emotional experiences demand your attention today, requiring you to set firm boundaries. Naturally, you want to be of help, but you're unwilling to put your entire day on hold to participate in a drama that isn't yours. Thankfully, your even-keeled approach to life combines well with your ability to assist a friend without disrupting your own commitments. Nevertheless, you must reconsider what's most important to you before responding to anyone else's needs. Making a decision is simple when your priorities are clear.
Given that you are often in your head, you find the intensity of your emotions surprising today. However, your current lack of logical thinking won't likely prevent you from sharing your process as your moods continue to change. Paradoxically, you might believe you're taking a risk by talking about deep topics, but others may be so distracted by the length of your discourse that the meaning of your message is missed. You can end up being your own worst enemy if you ramble on endlessly, unaware that you've lost the attention of your audience. Author Joan Aiken wrote, "Words are like spices. Too many is worse than too few."
Maintaining your emotional equilibrium sounds easier than it is in practice today. The harmonizing Libra Moon in your 4th House of Foundations encourages you to seek balance, but her smooth ride is threatened by suspicious Pluto and irrepressible Uranus. Although you might want to give up and hide out in your room, exploring new ways to integrate your desires with the needs of others can be quite empowering. CEO Ginni Rometty said, "Growth and comfort do not coexist."
The more you value the simple everyday routines of your life, the happier you will be today. The Moon forms a creative connection to the willful Sun and ambitious Saturn in your 6th House of Self-Improvement, offering you an opportunity to zero in on a worn-out habit and leave it in the past. Honesty paired with discipline can result in magical levels of progress now, even if it's not yet apparent to others. Lasting change occurs from the inside out.
Although giving voice to your emotions is often uncomfortable, it seems to flow more naturally today. Nevertheless, you prefer to talk about things that are based on logic rather than describing irrational mood changes. You might surprise someone close to you when you open a floodgate of pent-up feelings. However, providing direct access to your heart may result in an unexpected shift in interpersonal dynamics. A good friendship deepens with good communication.
Establishing equanimity in your relationships takes center stage today. You are compelled to work through a grievance or some other unfinished emotional business with a significant other. This process requires determination and a commitment to honest communication, but it is vital that you are centered before you enter into any conversation. Taking a walk or sitting in meditation can assist you in finding a place of inner calm. When you actively work toward harmonizing your partnerships, other things in your life also find stability.
You may try to spend the day avoiding an emotional encounter, only to find yourself drawn into a drama anyway. Your defensive tactics are like bandages that cover rather than cure an unresolved feeling that needs healing. In some ways, it's your compassion for someone else that drives you to push through the resistance on assertive Mars' last day in fellow water sign Pisces. When you take the time to stop and fully identify with another person's experience, your empathy creates a connective bond that's strong enough to absorb your intensity.
Your craving for social activity is undeniable today, even if it means you're closely tied to other people's schedules. You long to feel like you're a part of an extended family or tribe as the Libra Moon hangs out in your 11th House of Community. Although you tend to walk through the world with a keen sense of independence, spending time with friends does not have to derail your sense of sovereignty. Balancing your needs with reality is an ongoing anthropological experiment. Relinquishing control invites magic into your life.
The call to turn inward is compelling today, but social obligations cannot be ignored. Although you may be on a collision course with responsibility, there's a bit of cosmic respite that allows you to sit back and put up your feet. Contemplating your personal connection with your work in the outer world can lead to a fresh perspective on the future. Although it may be helpful to look to the past when trying to find solutions, you must bring your awareness back to the present in order to positively influence your current situation. Be mindful of now.
The freer you feel to express your nonconformist side, the happier you are. Nevertheless, you must weigh your need to play the role of contrarian with your current desire to fit in. You may even question your underlying motivations to rebel against authority. Although you might be uncomfortable at first, you recognize there are situations where conventional behavior is your most authentic choice. At times, being true to yourself must be balanced with the logistics of your immediate surroundings.
Your devotion to spiritual principles seems to be intensifying. As a result, the depth of your understanding of the suffering of others is enhanced today. Unfortunately, the level of sensitivity you are tapping into can be a lot to navigate. As your empathy expands, be sure to include yourself in the list of people for whom you have compassion. If you become overwhelmed, make time to meditate and bring yourself back to center. In order to help or to heal, you need to be able to set boundaries that stick.
