A larger than life personality is coming into play in your life right now, and they’ll be making quite a splash. Whether they’re causing you to think in a new way or just challenging the status quo, they represent a significant amount of conflict in how you currently perceive the world (and yourself). Hang back until you feel comfortable with how they communicate. Watch their behavior around others for clues. You might get a peek under their facade and see if it’s all an act.

There’s a lot stewing beneath the surface now, so be open to unexpected twists and turns. Are you developing feelings for that pal you always want to spend time with? Look past the obvious.

Today, you could do some of that painful but interesting work of redefining your values. Which values do you need to tackle? Be sure to ask your partner for their input about what to change and how.

Is it really an issue of duality? When clarity dissolves, it could be time to take a look at your motives. They may be the smoke and your moral fiber might be the wind blowing it away.
