► Today is all about the communities you live and work in. Your place in the world will be something you'll be questioning today, and that is totally normal and wonderfully healthy. Do you take the same role in every situation? Are you always the leader, always the follower, or do you take turns in this role? These are the questions you should address; you need to make sure you're being true to yourself and not compromising for the sake of popularity or politics. This is not a race! It may feel like it, but almost all the pressure is coming from within. You need to slow down and take things as they come today, or you risk burning yourself out too quickly.

And there's a time when I feel only my death loves me sincerely.
