Gemini
May 22 to June 21
This isn’t the time to hesitate – even if you do have doubts about your course of action. Your thinking may not be linked to facts as much as to baseless fears. As Mercury in a dreamy zone squares off with Mars, your emotions could lead you astray unless you can override them. Look at what’s in front of your eyes rather than what you imagine is there. The truth will set you free.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Edgy influences are at work, so it’s wise to slow down and take things in your stride. You likely won’t want to though, Cancer. Excitement around an idea that could make you money may be pushing you to do something. Don’t jump in too quickly, as other factors may come into play that you’ll need to incorporate. Is it possible to save more? It might help to focus on this for now.

Over the coming weeks, you’ll find some new friends who are as ambitious as you. Need to make a key decision concerning a goal or job? Don’t hesitate for too long. Go for it and see what happens.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
With Mercury in Taurus, your mind may be on faraway places and opportunities that can seem a little out of reach. Are they though?

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Are you perplexed by someone? If what they say but actually do don’t match up you may wonder about their true motive. With Mercury angling towards Mars in your social zone, your thoughts about this person could take on a life of their own. Try to stay detached rather than overreact. If you manage this, you’ll see this situation for what it is and see them exactly as they are.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Is someone giving you confusing advice? If so, it’s worth paying attention to your instincts about a situation. With an edgy Mercury/Mars aspect at a peak, you may be persuaded to go against your own better judgement. If something is important to you, don’t let others influence you. You know what you want, so it’s just a matter of keeping your focus on the goal until you get it.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
If an opportunity shows up, don’t immediately dismiss it. With warrior Mars continuing its journey through your sector of new discoveries, saying yes could be so good for you. Even if you haven’t had as much experience as you’d like, it’s worth being bold and moving out of your comfort zone. There may be a learning curve involved, but where’s there’s a will, there’s a way.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
It’s no good beating about the bush, especially if there’s something that you want. With lively Mercury continuing in down-to-earth Taurus, it could get more and more difficult to pretend that you really don’t need it. You might try to talk yourself out of it, but this won’t make it go away. If you go after it and get it, you can breathe a sigh of relief as you bask in feelings of satisfaction.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
If someone seems to be prying into your business a little too much, you’ll resent it and be inclined to give away as little as possible. But as Mercury angles towards Mars in Leo, this matter could ramp up further with developing aspects making conversation and a solution more difficult. There is a chance of a new beginning, but you’ll need to set firm boundaries first.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Crossed wires are possible, especially if you’re discussing something that requires attention to detail. It helps to clarify matters fast, so that you can get your message across and start to make progress. Concerning a dispute, you could find yourself acting as mediator around a tricky situation. Your ability to empathise with both sides makes it possible to skilfully smooth the way ahead.
