**** Enjoy an enthusiastic conversation with someone close to you today because you'll get excited about sharing big ideas. Very possibly, these ideas will relate to home, family or a domestic situation. Perhaps even travel? (It never hurts to think big.)
**** Work-related issues will encourage big ideas today. Likewise, work-related travel could be exciting and extensive. Be careful because today it's easy to be sloppy about details. Remember: When sweeping a floor, take care of the corners because the middle will take care of itself.
*** This can be a productive day for those of you who work in creative fields like the entertainment world. Also, anything related to the hospitality industry, hotels and restaurants, or working with kids might produce exciting long-range goals. However, agree to nothing important today. Let these ideas cook.
**** You have a strong focus on home and family right now, perhaps including dealing with a parent? In either case, family discussions or bright ideas might occur to you today that involve ambitious changes in the future. Family travel might also be in the picture.
*** This is a tricky day because in one way you're upbeat and enthusiastic about big, exciting ideas. This feels good! However, you might overlook elements that don't fit in with your grand vision. Caution about speaking arrogantly. Try hard to plan carefully today.
*** Be extra careful when dealing with money today as well as making financial decisions because it's easy to get carried away with "get-rich schemes" or bright ideas about how to improve your wealth. But remember: What the large print giveth, the small print taketh away. Grrr. Double check details.
**** Today Mercury is in your sign at odds with Jupiter, which encourages optimism and positive ideas about life. You're inclined to make big plans and explore commercial transactions. However, big thinking can overlook details, which might be critical. Don't bite off more than you can chew.
*** With Mars in your sign you are strong, confident and ready to act. However, information that comes to you (especially from research) might be circumspect. Don't trust everything you hear. In fact, if something seems to be too good to be true - this is probably the case. Caution!
*** This is a lovely day to schmooze with friends and take charge of meetings or group gatherings because you are confident, articulate and enthusiastic. The trick is to make sure that what you say will hold water. Make no assumptions. Make no empty promises.
**** Bosses, parents and VIPs might be encouraged by your big ideas today. (Or possibly, the reverse is true and you hear about big plans from someone else?) Either way, avoid plunging ahead precipitously. Don't let your optimism make you act recklessly. Double check all possibilities to be safe.
**** You might be enthused by philosophical ideas or new information, especially from other countries or different cultures. This can be enlightening and uplifting. Meanwhile, double check travel plans or plans related to school and publishing because it's easy to overlook details today.
*** When it comes to debt, taxes, shared property and inheritances, be careful today because sloppy thinking and a quick rush to judgment can overlook important details. Take a moment to check your work. Be careful about accepting information at face value.
