**[Sky]**
The Moon and Mars meet in your 10th house Friday — the house of vocation and public standing — while the Sun and Jupiter sit quiet in your 12th, the chamber of solitude and the under-mind. Virgo, you're being asked to show up and lead while part of you wants to withdraw and process. Mercury in your 11th (community, friends) says the conversation that matters most happens in a group text or a shared table, not a spotlight. Venus in your 2nd steadies the ground beneath your feet — what you value, what you earn, what you know you're worth — and that anchor keeps you from performing when you'd rather be preparing.

The tension isn't a mistake. Saturn retrograde in your 8th says shared money or intimate agreements still need renegotiating; Neptune there whispers that not everything is as clear as the other person claims. Uranus in your 10th has been shaking the career container for months — Friday may bring a sudden ask, a pivot, a role you didn't audition for. Don't say yes out of duty. The elders teach that rest is also labor. If the day asks too much, name it. One boundary spoken aloud is worth ten tasks completed in resentment. Close the day with a single breath at the window — inhale what you need, exhale what you carried for others.
