Loving Venus meets up with earthy Virgo on the second, so you take a little more cautious approach to love and money for the next couple weeks.

Getting into a power struggle for no reason is a losing move.

The sun enters powerful Scorpio on the twenty-second, welcoming in a month of inner exploration. If you’ve been busy and haven’t spent a lot of time by yourself lately, the next month can be a productive and beneficially reflective time.
