Mercury is in Sagittarius stimulating talking, so work on listening. He's tripping through aspects first to Uranus and Chiron, offering healing through inspiration and wild experiments, then to Saturn, Neptune, and Eris, offering ways to either protect or unblock tribal notions and boundaries, especially across religious/spiritual barriers. It's a good chance to get through to fundies in the family.
ARIES (March 20 – April 19): Some of the craziest ideas from your wildest dreams will have some practical application. They will need some work. Hash it out with a few friends to see how those wacky notions can fit in the real world.
TAURUS (April 20 – May 20): How do social pressures influence your sexual autonomy? Playing with others necessarily requires some compromises, but you're entitled to stand up for yourself. You may want to hold back on the impulse and negotiate a more fulfilling position.
GEMINI (May 21- June 20): To reconcile problems with a partner or colleague, try exploring entirely new ideas. What you eventually do work out can inspire further innovations to provide a new approach to long-standing problems at home.
CANCER (June 21- July 22): Sexuality can be healing, catalyzing new ideas – especially when you try something new! Open yourself up to exploring fantasies. The ones that are hardest to verbalize will teach you to communicate in new ways.
LEO (July 23 – August 22): Casual jests can be unintentionally hurtful. Be ready to apologize, and to learn something in the process. Your humor will be handier when grappling with arguments that leave you wondering what's really important. Balancing sympathy and logic is the trick!
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22): Cleaning house can help solve problems with your partner, or just bring up problems that have been hidden. Keep up the effort even if it means an argument. The make-up sex will be terrific!
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22): Trying to be logical at work will backfire. Be playful and allow yourself to be inspired. Playing competitively with others can bring out some long-hidden demons. Open discussion and humor can exorcise them once and for all.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21): Set aside some money for impulse spending, but keep the receipts! Arguments with friends are especially likely, but keep in mind that these are people you have to live and work with. Keep your disagreements civil and your ego under control.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 20): You're even more loquacious than usual, but that can help heal old family problems. Work problems are more complicated, but keep talking. Focus creative, competitive playfulness towards achieving your ambitions.
CAPRICORN (December 21 – January 19): Let your mind wander a bit. Discuss the crazier dreams and ideas that emerge with a friend. Letting yourself sound a bit weird can prove valuable. You don't have to agree with old-fashioned notions, but study them well to develop a clearer argument against them.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18): Your friends are used to your weird side so don't be shy. Revealing some of your wilder fantasies can prove therapeutic, maybe for them as well. Airing those notions can also help you clarify your sexual boundaries.
PISCES (February 19 – March 19): Some of your ambitions are unrealistic; talk privately with a boss or some expert to develop clearer goals. Then take time out to consider what you need to do to improve your relationship. Never mind your partner's faults. What do "you" need to do?
