Anxiety can become a palpable energy field this week, but it doesn’t have to run the show. 

Labor Day weekend is the industrious Virgo holiday where we respect hard work by taking time off to enjoy summer’s last hurrah and maybe do some work for ourselves.

We’ll see the first few leaves turn autumnal gold and think about our fall schedule under this Virgo Sun and with Venus in Virgo as the weekend begins.

It’s a busy week amongst the planets. The world is changing; anything is possible, and we’ll see the evidence. 

This week could feel like a movie, but whether it’s a drama, slapstick comedy, or summer romance with a meet-cute when a car breaks down, is up to us. 

It’s a great week to take time off and keep the agenda light. 

"May you live in interesting times" is an old Asian curse. As the weekend begins a sense of worried excitement or urgency can push us to dither or act before we’re ready. Let’s stay calm, cool, collected and think for the long haul. 

What is worth loving, worth investing our heart and resources, in the face of loss or the potential for loss?

This weekend starts with a new moon in the introspective, self-protective, nurturing if worried sign of Cancer.

How do we feel about a family heritage and habits; how do we feel about our home and homeland; how can we make home safe for all? This is what the sun, Mercury, and Venus now in domestic Cancer want to know. 

This first week of summer brings long leisurely evenings, a watch for forest fires, and interesting new layers of family responsibility as the sun in Cancer asks us to introspect and take care of business on the home front.

Our sunlight peaks as the earth hits its maximum tilt with summer almost upon us.
