Today,  proceed with caution. The Mars-Jupiter square gives you the energy to start something new, but tempts you to act recklessly without looking at all the facts. And you’re so sure you’re right! This can make you smug and pompous – not a great way to win friends and influence people!

 

Those signs with the most self-confidence are the Fire Signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius are the most susceptible to this energy. Acting like a know-it-all is just going to cause embarrassing problems or humiliation, so take a step back and move forward carefully. Being humble isn’t your strong suit, but give it a try.

 

The Earth Signs or anyone with planets in Earth signs – Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn – reality is your thing, so there’s little danger of you taking some silly risks. But you tend to get caught up in your own stuff and not pay attention to other’s feelings. A little attention and respect for others goes a long way.

 

For Air Signs - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius – you don’t like your equilibrium upset. Your natural tendency is to seek balance, so when others are acting rashly, you can blow very cold. Use your gift of empathy to see their point of view and always treat their ideas respectfully.

 

The Water Signs of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces – you have a vivid imagination, but harness this energy by using some forethought and strategy rather than using it to act impulsively. Your ideas might be great, but really, are they the be-all-and-end-all? Being humble gets you the cooperation you need.

 

Looking ahead to Monday, with both Venus and Mercury in Libra, finds you willing to compromise and negotiate, whether it’s with coworkers or your main squeeze. Use this energy to seek  balance in all of your relationships.

 

If it’s your birthday today or you know someone having a birthday today, figure out which area of your life needs the most nurturing and attention and focus on that during the coming year.
