Libra Weekly Horoscope

Your weekly horoscope, continued 

You may hit a few speed bumps this Friday, January 9, as your ruler Venus (in Capricorn) locks horns with Jupiter in Cancer. You pride yourself on being gracious and forthcoming, Libra, but what if someone asks a question that you’re not ready to answer? Total transparency isn’t always required. It’s perfectly fair to pause, gather your thoughts, or say you’ll get back to them. Avoid over-explaining or oversharing. Choose responses that support your stability, not just your reputation as the diplomat in the room.
 
Get ready for another round of tug-of-war this weekend. The Sun and aggro Mars—both in Capricorn, your domestic zone—are the next ones to trade fire with amplifying Jupiter. The trick to finding some degree of equilibrium is not caving to unfair or excessive demands. A family member or household matter may unexpectedly demand a huge chunk of your time. Or a job issue might crop up and require your attention ASAP. Obviously “emergencies” need to be dealt with in real time, but whether you’re acting out of choice or necessity, consider its impact on the other important people in your life. Sometimes just acknowledging your loved ones and promising to make it up to them can ease any resentment that might have inadvertently arisen.
