With Mercury entering Gemini, you could get some rational insight into current epochal shifts to articulate the necessary changes. As arguments heat up, try to keep calm with an open mind and heart. You could learn something important from opponents. That won't be easy!
ARIES (March 20 – April 19): Open arguments in order to learn. If you can let your opponents do most of the talking, you may give them lots of rope or learn better how to advance your own position.
TAURUS (April 20 – May 20): Write down a short play about your banker and your boss for clues about the work you need to do to get your affairs and career in order. Trust your intuition for information; think twice before acting on it.
GEMINI (May 21- June 20): Revisit family histories. Your spiritual growth since childhood will give fresh perspectives to those old stories. Listen to friends with daring ideas for your career. Take those as diamonds in the rough and polish them up.
CANCER (June 21- July 22): Turn worries into concrete actions – and if you can't do anything about it, meditate on acceptance. A terrific opportunity may seem too good to be true. Don't pass it up, but see if you might approach it from a different angle.
LEO (July 23 – August 22): Your social schedule is overburdened, forcing you to pick and choose. It's not just about having fun. Sit and think about which events are important and will serve you. Be pragmatic and take a long view.
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22): Rational logic points the way you need to go, but intuition and meditation show you the steps necessary now. A very annoying colleague now may have your interest at heart or not, but pay attention and learn something important.
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22): Get out of town. Find a serene, meditative place where you can assess your situation in solitude. A new acquaintance – a masseur or a healer? – can help you to work out problems both physical and spiritual.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21): Your critical observations of your family or community will upset some people. That's better than letting problems fester, but try to be tactful and foresightful when you raise tough issues. New approaches to work and exercise will also improve your outlook.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20): Your efforts to talk with your partner and colleagues can come off way too strongly. Go easy and remember to listen carefully. Play in a sport you're not familiar with to learn a little humility and gain other insights.
CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19): Picky little details – and others who work with them – can really jangle your nerves. You'd rather focus on the big picture, but you need to deal with the minutiae. A big surprise from home will help you think in new directions.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18): Playful banter can cross lines too easily. Hang out with friends who have thick skins and raunchy humor. If you are shocked by their responses, follow those lines of thought to better understanding of your own sexuality.
PISCES (February 19 – March 19): Hiding out from domestic stress solves nothing. Be charitable and empathetic. Those are your strong suits! A financial shock could be a blessing in disguise, teaching you strength you didn't know you had and a better sense of who your friends really are.
