What drives you? What is your true motivation? Is it creativity? Or is it the need to survive? That’s the question to keep asking yourself this year. If you find that you’re leaning heavily on survival instinct to get by, you might want to reassess that and take a bolder and more adventurous approach. Your life is an experiment, though for you these days, it’s an experiment in being real. How bold can you be about calling the events of life as you see them? What are the limits on your ability to be truthful?

Written in the Planets

The more you can keep any inner tension around relationship needs and their attendant emotions front and center (as opposed to operating from the shadows), the better today. The asteroid Juno in Cancer is square minor planet Eris in Aries; this could have the potential to manifest as an urge to be less-than-upfront about what’s really driving you emotionally. If you’re feeling ‘unmet’ in any way by a partner or prospect, resist the urge to use any tactic smacking of manipulation to get the attention you desire.

Speaking directly about what you want may feel awkward or scary, but it should give you the satisfaction of taking action that is clear to all involved. Even if the answer you receive is ‘no’, you’ll be in a stronger position within yourself to see your options for next steps. A Sun-Neptune square emphasizes the need to stay aware of just how honest you’re being with yourself — and therefore with others — this weekend.

Also note that Venus, the planet of love (among other things) enters Gemini tonight. This describes a social environment that’s charming, friendly and possibly marked by intellectual rapport and flirtation — which bodes well for many types of weekend situations. If sex is on your agenda, you may feel inclined to a little more variety than you were while Venus was in Taurus. Why not play?
