This week, as Mercury forms a superb link with Venus, do you think it's possible to exude more charisma, find life noticeably easier, and become a tiny bit wealthier? The answer is a resounding 'yes' to each question! You're unlikely to be in any doubt about the fact that someone cares deeply for you, and you could also discover that you have more friends than you were aware of, too. Not only is your romantic outlook considerably more promising but financial matters also look set to be less precarious. So, prepare for a boost to your confidence and optimism levels that you not only need but also deserve!

You could be reminded of the saying about being able to choose your friends but not your family as the month commences, mainly due to Mars influencing your emotional foundations from January 3rd until mid-February. Some Virgos could discover that a family member becomes a source of tension or antagonism during this time. However, it's also possible that something connected with your home or domestic set-up could need addressing and resolving urgently. But the word 'urgency' could also apply to other areas of your world, especially if you believe you don't have time to plan or prepare for changes you sense are coming or those that arise unexpectedly. Whatever occurs, keep your cool and remain calm because progress, security, and stability you need won't be achieved by adopting a 'headless chicken' approach.
