Thinking about sinking all your available resources or capital into a long-term venture? The odds are stacked against you and only fool would be parted from his/her gold right now. False confidence makes you behave imprudently whilst the message in your stars tells you to tread with care.

This is not the time to press ahead with plans or projects that appear ready for the off but which have fundamental flaws. Impatience could make you oblivious to a crucial factor that will have everything imploding in on itself if you carry on regardless. Be circumspect and analytical.

Mercury’s opposition to Pluto makes you more cognisant than ever that a personal or partnership matter may have come to the end the line. Your ultimate deadline is June 16th; if things haven’t improved by then, then you’ve reached the point of no return and must do what you have to do.

If you’re sure yours is the right choice even though it goes against the wishes of others, don’t let your sensitivity to others stop you from doing the right thing. You know how it feels to be in someone else’s shoes but sometimes you have to think of yourself and walk away with both feet in your own!

Ending past commitments or ventures and holding out for what you ultimately dream of is all very well but have you really thought about what you are doing and where it will lead? Clean breaks heal faster but it’s also the case of being happy with what you’ve got and not chasing the impossible.

The more you give to others, the more they demand from you. So much so that you may now feel you’ve lost control of your own free-will. Your Destiny is being shaped by the people around you, especially your family. Keep mum for now but remember it’s your life and how you live it is up to you.

You’re living at the behest of events and may have to switch off your emotions in order to cope. This has left you knowing too much and feeling too little perhaps leaving you desensitised to matters which would normally disturb or perturb you. Get back in touch with your true self to feel human again.

What you want isn’t always what you get as you’ll find out now. Accepting some things on other peoples’ terms doesn’t mean that you’ve given up. There are advantages in joining forces with someone you consider a rival - there’s an old adage, keep your friends close and your enemies even closer.

Today’s Mercury/Pluto opposition enervates your physical or mental vitality. Brace yourself for a difficult and demanding day but don’t feel tempted to ignore medical matters because your own needs aren’t important. On the contrary, make your health a number one priority no matter what.

A close relationship is fraying at the edges because someone feels emotionally tattered and worryingly muddled about their feelings. If that someone is you, you have some deep and serious thinking to do. If it’s a loved-one who’s mixed up, give them space to work things out for themselves.

With Mercury, Mars and Pluto infighting, it would be all too easy to get mixed up in an argument or conflict that leaves you exhausted and worst for wear. There is little to show for your energy by putting your all into fights and rows - apart from sabotaging your life-plans and ambitions.

You have the strength and stamina to pull folk to your side if things get heated, but the scales could just as easily swing in the against you unless you play it cool. No matter how passionate you get, think before you speak, as one small slip-up could reduce your giant standing/authority to a pygmy.
