Aries (March 21 – April 19)

The focus is on examining your relationships with your resources—time, energy, and money—and noting where you feel depleted. On the work front, you should analyze all aspects of a complicated issue before making a decision. Professionally, you are expected to perform well, with the possibility of rewards or a promotion, and disputes over inherited property may settle favorably. Financially, luck may favor you, but you need to be cautious about getting careless with money. In love, exchanging sweet nothings with a partner is likely and will enhance your day. The remnants of yesterday’s Full Moon may still be making you prominent, but you might feel a bit discombobulated about your public image.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

On the family front, this is a good time to bring about long-pending changes at home, and traveling to your childhood place is indicated. In love, your partner’s impulsiveness may cause some friction, making you feel a lack of control. Instead of getting angry, try to reason with them and discuss how they can be less erratic.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)
