This week begins with a Quarter Moon in the sign of tradition, Capricorn.
Squaring off to the Sun in Libra, this suggests that professional relationships, or those with older or more established people – or conversely with those younger than us – can come sharply into focus. We may find that, however diplomatic we try to be, someone still wants to assert themselves in what feels like an overbearing way. What we can do is be mindful of people’s expectations and try to find a way to give and take.
With Mercury squaring Jupiter early in the week, there could be a chance we are drawn into debates or battles of will that prove a distraction.
Old issues or lingering resentments can also surface, as Mercury clashes with Saturn.
Fortunately, the week ends on a high note, with Venus and Jupiter in splendid alliance. A slice of good news, a stroke of fortune, or time spent with loved ones can provide a welcome antidote to the earlier tensions.
