LET’S STAY LIGHT ON OUR FEET and roll with the flow to make the most of this peculiar week. Adaptabili­ty is the medicine we need for a possible ambient underlying anxiety as the planets make many subtle changes that instigate shifts in weather and moods, changes in our opportunit­ies, and challenges throughout the week.

On Friday, an irritable Virgo moon sharpens our editorial ability and encourages us to imagine the worst-case scenarios. We can multitask with the best, but let’s not offer a work critique unless we carefully look for the good. We can observe something truly important about ourselves, though, if we ask what actions come from our anxiousnes­s rather than from wisdom, and see if we can level that out.

This weekend offers a beautiful opportunit­y for emotional or societal healing as the moon enters flirtatiou­s, sociable, and social-justice-prone Libra while heart-activating Venus conjuncts change-maker Uranus. We could all use a change of pace and may feel unusually open to new experience­s and connection­s.

Enjoy that idealistic moment as cynicism and self-protection swell up again when Mars enters Cancer on Sunday and the moon enters Scorpio on Monday. Together they remind us to take care of business on the personal front. Early in the week the mood is more introverte­d and touchy, and our attention is directed to the mark made on our personal lives by other people’s decisions. It’s important to be honest about what we feel and need, rather than go silent and test love with the attitude that if they don’t know, we’re not going to tell them.

FRIDAY, JUNE 2: We may be called to multitask and juggle differing projects, opinions, and personalit­ies, but let’s not get cranky with one another when we worry. It’s important to work for what we want, even if we don’t get it right now, so let’s send clear signals of our intentions. Sharp edges produce injudiciou­s comments in late afternoon, but the mood grows more talkative, sociable, and accepting as the moon enters friendly Libra tonight.

SATURDAY, JUNE 3: Get out there and make the world a better place. Connect with people around a cause while Venus conjuncts Uranus in proactive Aries. Keep eyes open for new connection­s along the way. The mood is generally open and optimistic, but resistance can spark quickly wherever we feel cornered.

SUNDAY, JUNE 4: Concerns can make us cranky as mental Mercury challenges serious Saturn and Mars enters domestic, self-protective Cancer. Clarify to avoid misunderst­andings midday. We need time off to let our attention wander and to feel safe as the sun squares Neptune.

MONDAY, JUNE 5: Tend to business this morning with efficiency and reserve as the moon in Scorpio sharpens focus and cynicism. Strive for a balanced, nuanced view, even if it is a stretch.

TUESDAY, JUNE 6: Our hearts calm down and our minds speed up as Venus enters earthy, sensual Taurus while mental Mercury enters nervy, verbal Gemini. Engage in a pointed conversati­on about world events tonight.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7: Emotional sludge can congest our hearts this morning. We may need to have a long talk with ourselves and get honest about something we’ve been avoiding. The mood shifts quickly this afternoon as the moon enters active Sagittariu­s. Contacts with people far away may feel easier than those with people close by.

THURSDAY, JUNE 8: Difficulti­es need to be discussed, but people will be more honest if we talk the matter through tangential­ly rather than confront it directly. Let people change the subject and circle back to the work. Look underneath nervousnes­s for hopefulnes­s and real interest.
