This afternoon, Venus leaves restless Sagittarius and enters disciplined Capricorn, where it’ll stay for about the next month. If your attention has been all over the place lately, or if you’ve struggled to decide what you actually want, this change should bring new clarity. You don’t need to be loved by everyone to be happy — if you focus on the people you truly care about, the ones who have proven again and again that they’re in your corner, that’s enough.

Lately you’re sick of the people who talk a big game but never seem to deliver. You’re done putting your faith in people who promise the world, then disappear the minute the hard work begins. It can be easy to be swayed by empty charm, but today, you’ll be harder to win over — not because you’re overly demanding, simply because you’re smart. If someone wants your trust, they’ll have to earn it. If they want you on their side, they’ll have to prove that they’ve got your back in return.

Sometimes you’re most drawn to what is familiar; you want to be comforted, not constantly challenged. Today, though, you might be attracted to the people, places, and experiences that are brand new and promise adventure. Part of you might resist the call of the unknown — it’s sure to bring some stress and uncertainty — but don’t retreat to your comfort zone just yet. You have the opportunity now to learn, to stretch yourself, to discover happiness you hardly knew was possible — but you have to work for it, if only by being brave.

When life is particularly stressful, you do your best to avoid adding more problems. Instead of jumping into arguments, you’ll let small disagreements go; instead of steering the conversation to contentious topics, you’re content to keep things light. Today, though, what you probably need most isn’t shallow agreeability but deep connection. So, at least with the people you trust, don’t shy away from difficult topics: Talking through the hard stuff will bring you closer together.

It’s not easy to love yourself. You’re too intimately acquainted with your own shortcomings and failures, and things that you’d excuse in others seem unforgivable in yourself. But you’re as worthy of love as anyone — and if you can’t quite believe that today, the people you’re close to can help you. They view your flaws more generously than you do, and they recognize the unique gifts that you tend to undervalue. If you’re struggling to see the good in yourself, try to look at yourself through the eyes of the people who care about you.

You struggle to trust that other people will do the work that needs to be done. It isn’t that you don’t love or appreciate them, only that you can’t be totally sure they’ll take care of things the right way. But refusing to put your faith in others is exhausting for you, and it stops working relationships from developing fully. Today, the best thing you can do is commit to collaborating. They’ll pull their own weight if you give them a chance.

You sometimes feel like nobody really gets you. Maybe they recognize your hard work, but they don’t notice your creativity or understand your sense of humor. At a certain point, you might be tempted to stop sharing at all — if nobody’s going to get it anyway, what’s the point? Today, though, that could change. Even if you’re not doing anything differently, it’s as though other people are finally on your wavelength. Make the most of it.

You’re clear about who you are and what you believe in — at least, most of the time you are. At times, though, your clarity and confidence are shaken. Events unspool differently than you expected, or relationships blow up spectacularly, and a quiet voice within you begins to question whether you were wrong about everything. Today, your challenge is to shore up determination and resolve. The more you tend to your emotional foundations now, the more strength you’ll have to draw from in the future.

It often feels like you’re the only person who can see the world clearly. The people around you seem either foolishly optimistic or uselessly negative. They never seem to identify the real problems at play, or offer solutions that could realistically work. But today, try to listen to others with a bit more generosity. They aren’t right all the time — but then, neither are you. And if you assume that they have at least a few valuable ideas to contribute, you’re likely to be proven right.

When you’re stressed about the state of the world, you sometimes dream about leaving your ordinary life behind so that you can be free to do something truly great. You imagine traveling to the places where the “real” work is happening, meeting important and influential people, making your mark on a grand stage. But today, it’ll probably be more fulfilling to focus on what you can do with the life, the skills, the community you have now. Meaning is right here waiting for you.

It can be lonely to feel like nobody recognizes your soft side. They all see your tremendous competence and imagine that there’s no gentleness hiding underneath, or they see your self-discipline and imagine that you’re somehow above ordinary tenderness and yearning. Sometimes, even you imagine that you should focus on work and forget about everything else. Today, though, remember that you don’t have to deny yourself love in order to be effective at your work — if anything, it will only make you stronger.

Gossip can be fun, and sometimes you learn genuinely useful information, but today it could feel like everyone is burdening you with secrets you’d rather not know. You don’t want to be drawn into everybody else’s dramas, or to be given the responsibility of deciding what to do about other people’s problems — you’ve got plenty of your own to deal with. You might have to set some boundaries with your friends about what you’re willing to hear about — and about what you’re willing to share in return.

You have good instincts about people, and you can usually tell on first meeting someone if they’re somebody you want as a friend, or if they’re someone you need to be wary of. Trust your intuition today, but don’t be rigid about it. Stay open to the fact that you might be proven wrong — whether because you missed something, or simply because, for better or for worse, everybody changes over time. Some people might disappoint you, but you might also discover allies you never expected.
