A snide comment wrapped in a smile? Don't swallow it. Venus' link to Pluto on Wednesday is your cue to uphold your standards, especially in friendships. If you've felt edgy or frazzled, Mercury is moving on from your sign this weekend, which will help you find your feet (and your zen) again. A creative download you've been circling around hits after Saturday. Jot it down. Storyboard it. Message someone who can help bring it to life.

POWER DAY Wednesday.

Mercury enters your sign on Saturday, clearing the fog around a decision that's been dragging. A work discussion, relationship crossroads or just a gut feeling you've been ignoring is coming in loud and clear. But Pluto's stirring deeper stuff: who holds the power, who pulls the strings. Don't bulldoze, but don't shrink yourself to fit anyone else's mould. You win by staying strategic. Think lawyer, not loudmouth. Your words land harder when they're not thrown around.

POWER DAY Saturday.

This week invites you to contribute in a way that feels purposeful. You might sign up for a beach clean-up, donate time to a grassroots cause or support a friend's project. You're in the mood to do something bigger than yourself without the need for applause. Then, Saturday night, a flash of insight arrives when you least expect it, mid-scroll, mid-dream, mid-nap. Keep your Notes app close. The kind of idea that changes things starts like this.

POWER DAY Tuesday.

This isn't the week to fix yourself. You're not a problem to be solved. Comet Chiron encourages reflection over self-criticism, especially around the parts of you that feel bruised. Guilt, comparison, regret, let it breathe instead of forcing resolution. By the weekend, Mercury lightens the mood. A new person, podcast, or a flirty text could be the unexpected pick-me-up. When you stop trying to say the perfect thing, the right words will find you.

POWER DAY Wednesday.

Pluto's retrograde strikes your relationship zone, pulling focus to where you've kept quiet to keep the peace. But now, that silence feels heavier than the truth. A necessary conversation is best had on Thursday or Friday when you'll bring backbone without burning bridges. La Luna says: speak from the version of you that's done shrinking. Whether you're setting limits, clearing the air or owning what you want, don't second-guess yourself. This version of you doesn't apologise for the truth.

POWER DAY Monday.

Money-wise, it's a good week to sort out your finances. File those tax receipts, check your subscriptions, and review what's worth spending your hard-earned pennies on. Then on Tuesday, the Moon lands in your sign, and the emotional volume goes up. Don't bottle it up or sugarcoat your feelings. Whether you cry, snap, or retreat, it's all valid. The point isn't to be composed. It's to be authentic. Let your feelings surface because that's where the healing begins.

POWER DAY Wednesday.

Venus and Pluto turn up the passion in your love life. It's magnetic, maybe messy, but worth exploring. An intoxicating new connection or emotional deepening is likely. Thursday's Moon casts you centre stage. You'll be seen, so bring your best. Then Saturday flips the switch on a money idea. A new income stream, a way to monetise something you've overlooked. You might not act immediately, but don't neglect the seed; it's one worth watering.

POWER DAY Wednesday and Thursday.

Progress feels bumpy this week. You make headway, then hit a snag, especially at home or with a family member. Still, that's not failure. You're learning, and learning is progress. Then Mercury reminds you that not everything in love needs an in-depth analysis. Put down the pros and cons list. Logic can't always explain chemistry, timing, or connection. So if it makes your chest soften, or your gut say yes, listen to that.

POWER DAY Monday.

This week brings a conversation that clears the air. You'll either resolve something that's been hanging awkwardly or realise you were never misunderstood to begin with. There's comfort in knowing where you stand. By the weekend, Mercury's shift points to a reset for your body, mind and soul. You might return to journaling, explore a new yoga studio, or book that acupuncture session your friend swears by. Even small, thoughtful choices can leave you feeling more like yourself.

POWER DAY Tuesday.

Money stress creeps in this week, but Pluto reminds you that control doesn't come from obsessing. It comes from perspective. Venus encourages you to back your instincts, even if that means saying no to an offer or yes to a leap. You'll feel proud of yourself when you do. By week's end, a conversation goes surprisingly well. A tricky topic finds the right tone, and what you feared might unravel turns out to restore trust instead.

POWER DAY Wednesday.

Pluto's retrograde through your sign isn't here to derail you; it's here to get your attention. Not everything that looks strong on the outside is working underneath. This is your chance to pause, take inventory, and ask yourself the tough questions. Is your ambition fuelling you or just wearing you out? Is your identity still aligned with who you're becoming? Quiet adjustments during the retrograde set the stage for bigger moves later. Even so, let reflection lead before action follows. 

POWER DAY Monday.

Pluto's tuning your inner radar. That weird vibe? That too-good-to-be-true deal? You'll spot it before it unravels. Your instincts around money are also on point, so skip the splurge, check the fine print, and trust your first reaction. Jupiter adds sweetness to an interaction with someone close. A simple thank you that's small but sincere reminds you of the connection you share. It's not loud or dramatic. But it lingers in that part of you that needed to hear it.

POWER DAY Tuesday.
