Throughout all the busyness, you have no problem prioritizing your own needs, but on the 16th—as Venus squares off with your ruling planet Mars—a squabble with your partner, kid or work wife pushes you to put someone else first. This mindset shift comes at the perfect time because the new moon in Libra on the 25th is in your partnership sector, signaling a new era for your most intimate relationships.

If you’ve been thinking about starting a business, Virgo season (through the 22nd) provides plenty of opportunity for you to explore freelancing and entrepreneurial ventures.
