Early risers dutifully go about the business of preparing for the new working week.

Things move slowly this morning as the Cancer Moon languishes void of course. Big decisions are afoot so pay close attention to the wanderings of your mind.

By noon the pace of the day mellows. However, Venus is forming a late afternoon square to Jupiter and the urge to have a good fun remains strong.

Today's bargain could require a return trip to the store for an exchange or refund in the near future. Moon in Gemini v/c 11:22AM-12:00AM, Venus square Jupiter.

Many folks awaken with heads and eyes that are slow to clear. The Gemini Moon is testing Neptune during the pre-dawn hours and the confusing effects may linger for several hours.
