ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
★★★★
Today Mercury enters your sign for the next three weeks, enhancing your ability to express your point of view to others. People will listen to you because you will put more of yourself into what you have to say. Of course, Mercury will also make your mind jump rapidly from issue to issue. Tonight: Conversations.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
★★★
For the next three weeks, Mercury will be in a hidden part of your chart, which makes you more inclined to keep your opinions to yourself and not communicate them to others, even when you should. (Kinda secretive.) Welcome chances to ponder life. Tonight: Research solutions.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
★★★★
Your life will be busier and more stimulating in the next three weeks! Appointments, trips and demands from others will make you feel like the world is knocking on your door. Short trips will appeal to you. Interactions with younger people are likely. Tonight: Socialize.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
★★★
Today Mercury moves to the top of your chart for the next three weeks. This will make you think more about your professional world and your life direction. It’s a lovely time to explore new studies or special training that might boost your career. It’s also an excellent time to talk to bosses and ask for a promotion. Tonight: Make plans.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★★
Today Mercury moves into your fellow Fire sign for the next three weeks, enhancing all kinds of mental work and communications with others. Your mind will be unusually clear, and you’ll have good ideas about what you want to do. Mercury will help you organize yourself and travel. Yes! Tonight: Learn.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
Today your ruler Mercury moves into one of your Money Houses for the next three weeks, increasing your focus on taxes, debt, shared property and the wealth and resources of others. You might discuss and negotiate finances. You’ll also do some deep thinking. Tonight: Check your finances.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
The next three weeks are an excellent time for you to clarify and explain issues to others (especially about your daily life), because today Mercury moves opposite your sign. This is a lovely window to make contracts or enter into negotiations. Tonight: Tender conversations.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★★
This is an especially productive time for you. And as of today, it will get even more productive, because for the next three weeks, Mercury is in your House of Employment, favoring mental work and attention to detail and high standards with whatever you do. You’re on it! Tonight: Work.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★★
Lucky you! For the next three weeks, you’ll want to use your mind for amusement – reading, writing and playing games that require mental agility. You’ll be clear to others about where you stand on things, because you feel free to speak up without justifying everything you say. Tonight: Play!
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★
Your desire for privacy and intellectual withdrawal will increase in the next few weeks. You’re not being antisocial. Instead, you want time to reflect and think about the ideas that you have encountered recently. Nevertheless, family discussions and home repairs are on your agenda. Tonight: Make practical plans.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★★★
Today Mercury moves into the part of your chart that is its “home,” which will encourage group discussions and conversations with others. Expect to see new places, meet new faces and be full of innovative ideas! This dynamic energy will last for three weeks. Tonight: Listen and learn.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★
In the next three weeks, you’ll find yourself more concerned with business and commercial affairs than usual, including earnings, cash flow, taxes and financial planning. You also might have to define or explain your sense of values to someone. Tonight: Maintain your belongings.
