Being wanted is not a trap

There is a catch, you will assume, and there may not be one. Venus arrives in your sign today, which for you is less romance than exposure: being noticed by people you did not choose. It is allowed to be exactly what it looks like.

Love

If somebody is working up to saying something honest to you, you will feel it two days ahead, as usual. Do not get there first. Let them find their own words, badly, at their own pace. The version you would supply is more accurate and less useful, and it takes the moment away from them.

Work and money

If a piece of work you have been doing quietly gets noticed this week, your reflex will be to play it down, which reads as false modesty to anyone who does not know you. Describe what it does in one sentence and then stop talking. The silence after a plain answer works entirely in your favour.

Body and mind

You concentrate hard and forget there is a body attached. The pattern this week has been the skipped meal followed by the enormous late one. Eat at ordinary times for two days and find out how much of the flatness was ever about the work.

If you read nothing else

Let them say it badly; do not finish the sentence for them
