Resist the impulse to help out a colleague in need this week. It's understandable that you would want to be of assistance, but there’s more going on than meets the eye. The reason for this can be seen in retrograde Venus traveling backwards in the sky to conjoin your Ruling Planet Mercury in Scorpio on October 6th. This is proof positive that someone is looking to unload something they don’t want or is even manipulating circumstances so that you will be left holding the bag for their mistakes. Keep your nose clean and stay in your lane, and you will have no cause for regret.
