Friday brings Taurus its ruler’s support at a time when office systems wobble. It is Shukravar, the day of Venus, and Venus, lord of your sign, continues to rise out of the Sun’s glare in Libra, your sixth house of daily work. But Mercury sits in the same house, retrograde and now combust, and the Sun is also debilitated there. The Moon moves through Ardra in Gemini, your second, while Shani stays retrograde in your eleventh.




Mercury Combust in the SixthA combust Mercury loses clarity, and in the sixth, that shows up as workplace confusion. Two colleagues may end up on the same task, or an old version of a file may circulate instead of the latest.




Label files with dates and confirm meeting times on the calendar invite itself.




Venus on Its Own DayVenus rising on Shukravar gives you the patience and tact to sort these mix-ups without blame. A light tone with colleagues keeps the day pleasant even when errors pile up.




Ardra Moon in the SecondThe Moon in Ardra, your second house of speech, can make words sharper under stress. Rahu rules Ardra and also sits in your tenth, so work frustrations may spill into speech at home. Pause before answering family questions about the office.




Shani and JupiterRetrograde Shani, your yogakaraka, in your eleventh keeps long-term gains intact despite short-term confusion. Exalted Jupiter in your third supports clear, kind messages. At the same time, debilitated Mars there warns against replying to colleagues too quickly.
