You’ve been learning about the emotional and financial boundaries you set with others — and some tough lessons may be coming up. If you’ve been getting yourself out of messy contracts, breaking restrictive bonds, or claiming more space to process tough feelings, give yourself props — and loads of compassion. Sharing time, energy, and resources takes skill, and practicing it takes strength. If any collabs are coming to an end, let them. You’re making room for exchanges that you can rely on for the long haul.

The difference between “yours” and “mine” may be tricky to clarify today. So check your boundaries. If you find yourself getting swayed by others’ opinions or pushing yourself beyond your limits, reel it in. Newsflash: It’s okay to tend to your own needs before giving your energy to someone else. And if you start to feel zapped by the crowd? Call it a day. It’s not selfish to prioritize your wellbeing. Sometimes it’s the most generous thing you can do.

Your friendships hold up a mirror for you — and today, they’re reflecting how you tend to your boundaries (or don’t). Before automatically RSVPing to that coffee date or dinner party, pause.

You can’t network your way to a sense of belonging. Break up with the idea that showing up “perfectly” is what builds community. With the planet of connection in the sign of deep feeling, ditch any performative commitments and flow with the people who are genuinely supportive. Make emotional check-ins your social MO. Say yes to spaces where mutual care is the norm, not the exception. If a group chat or shared goal isn’t clicking anymore, trust your instincts. Only the causes that match your dedication, please.

You’re not too sensitive; you’re just aware of what stings. Maybe you’ve avoided advocating for yourself or setting a boundary because you’re afraid of pushing someone away. But protecting the peace isn’t worth it when you’re secretly seething inside. Remember: Nobody can read your mind — not even your longtime collaborators and co-conspirators. So name what you want to express. Your vulnerability is never too much — not for the allies in your corner. Make a plan to mend what’s hurting, together.
