“If you find yourself craving approval, you are low on self-love. Stop grasping for a few scraps wherever you can. Go home and make yourself a feast. Love yourself deeply today.”

Vironika Tugaleva

 SATURDAY: Intuitive flashes feed our sensitivities and it may continue to be difficult to maintain any confidence, though not a given. We may be especially tempted to go on a people-pleasing tour to find some sense of stability — not the best choice we can make. We don’t need to buy into today’s skepticism and trying to please the demands of others is bound to be a veritable rabbit hole that we’ll have some trouble emerging from. If we can’t find detachment, we’ll do better to pull back completely, looking for some place to contemplate in isolation. However we respond to this atmosphere, we will do well to remember that stability is always an inner sense and can’t be found through trying to control external circumstances. That wisdom is available to us today if we can quiet our minds enough to hear it.

SUNDAY: Moon in Cancer squares Mars just after noon today. The Moon’s arrival in Leo at 1:56 PM PST brings a significant boost, helping us to give voice to any lingering frustrations, doubts or concerns. Nonetheless, it is important to let go once we’ve made our points and not become distracted by petty squabbling or underhanded tricks. We’re likely to have quite a head of steam remaining from last Tuesday’s Full Moon (5:34 AM PST 19° Taurus/Scorpio) and we’ll do better to stay focused on solidifying our plans and positions, instead of trying settle old scores.

Tomorrow is another story.
