Aries (March 20 – April 19)

The line between being overly critical and focusing on vital questions is never clear. And now, with Mercury retrograde, this is especially the case. Knowing that, answer every question as swiftly, but in a simple a manner as possible. This should be enough for everybody, at least in the short term.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Everything has its moment. There is a time to stand up for what you want, which you have had to do a lot of lately. And there are moments like this, which are about appreciating what you have in the here and now. This clarifies what you have achieved and still have in mind accomplishing.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

One particular individual has an arrogant attitude but is clearly short of facts. Tempted as you are to ask the kind of questions that would put them in their place, don’t. The story is more complicated than you realise. Once everything comes out, you’ll be glad you were kind to them.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Now that the communication planet Mercury is retrograde, you and everybody else will be dealing with the minor errors typical of this cycle. However, because its position is accenting joint ventures and business, those errors could be revealing, especially when it comes undetected issues of a financial or practical nature.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Life provides us with all sorts of delights. Some are unmistakable. However, you may not recognise the power of others until afterwards, when you are reviewing your day or week. But you needn’t miss these golden moments. This requires only that you keep your mind firmly fixed on the here and now.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

No matter how harmonious a relationship is, from time to time clashes are inevitable. And now, with the volatile Mars accenting this part of your chart, even minor tensions could flare up. If so, use these as a jumping off point to discuss these matters and, ideally, to put them to rest.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

While the period when Mercury’s retrograde, as it will be until mid-February, can cause confusion, some of those shakeups turn out to be best for everybody. Bear this in mind when they arise, and instead of trying to minimise them, you’ll explore the options they triggered, including those that seem disruptive.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

It may seem a compromise. But despite your best efforts, the differences between you and certain individuals are unlikely to be resolved. Instead of struggling to achieve an accord, simply agree to disagree. This will end the ongoing tensions you have been facing and make life easier for each of you.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Usually you are easygoing about mistakes, both others’ and those you make yourself. Yet those triggered by the present retrograde Mercury are making you very irritated indeed, way out of proportion to the actual situation in question. That’s because you have other matters, you are putting off, and you are looking for something to blame.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

Although you don’t advocate a blow up as the ideal way of dealing with issues, there are one or two individuals who respond best to dramas of this nature. Still, if you want to stage one, you’ll probably need to wait until early February’s Full Moon brings issues to an emotional peak.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

There are all sorts of differences. Some resolve themselves, others are annoying but don’t really matter. However, one particular issue does, enough that eventually you’ll need to deal with it. Wait until next week, when events are likely to highlight this, forcing others to acknowledge something needs to be done.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

If you are arguing the rights and wrongs of minor points, that’s probably not the real source of conflict. The problem is that you are anxious about acknowledging the actual issue, so are studiously avoiding it. Once you acknowledge this, you can make a conscious decision whether you want to bring it up or not.
