The moon conjoining earthy Capricorn Pluto through the early afternoon reminds you that assertiveness and diplomacy can work and will help you overcome challenges. The lunar sextile with the Scorpio sun echoes Pluto’s morning influence later in the day. Expect success when you employ consolidation and preservation in any of today’s efforts.

Tonight, the Capricorn moon squaring Venus, planet of love, suggests conflicting urges. Two people’s hearts are not attuned if each person wants the greater share of the same thing. A few people’s selfishness shows in acts of obsessive self-interest needing boosts of self-esteem. Not to worry. It’s temporary for many. Rating: 2
