Taurus
April 21 to May 21
A surprise meeting could connect you with someone from the past, Taurus. As lively Mercury is in line with Uranus, you may have mixed feelings about them. Even so, if you did part on awkward terms, this might be an opportunity to set things straight. There is a good chance you have both changed since you last saw each other, and this can make a world of difference.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Get a feeling not to accept an offer? With the Moon forging an awkward tie with beguiling Neptune, things may not be quite as they seem. Although it might look appealing on the surface there could be hidden flaws, and it’s possible you will lose out. In fact, it can be wise to take care with deals that involve a lot of money in general, as Mercury will rewind in a few days.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
If your mind keeps dwelling on pictures of exotic beaches and lapping waves, then you may be ready for a break. If it isn’t possible to take one at this stage, you’ll need to improvise, Cancer. Perhaps there’s a place closer to home where you can relax and recharge. And it might be that spending just a little time somewhere beautiful is enough to energize and restore you.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
If you want something with a passion, then it may be an idea to hold back and wait a few days. With Neptune on the field, you might be mesmerized by it, even if it does cost more than you’d ideally like to pay. And yet once the novelty has worn off, you might wonder why you wasted your money. Instead, think about some pampering or a soothing massage, as it could be better.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
An opportunity that may have passed you by once before could show up again. And if it does, it might be worth your consideration, Virgo. With Mercury about to turn retrograde, don’t expect much to happen. It can take time for things to get into gear. Still, you could register your interest and find out more, so that you’re prepared when things do move forward. Don’t miss out again!

Libra
September 24 to October 23
There could be a mix-up in communication which may be down to a cloudy Moon/Neptune angle. Someone might get completely the wrong idea about what you’re trying to tell them, and this can lead to further muddles. If you have something important to share, it’s vital that you put things across as clearly as possible. It’s worth making sure they fully understand, Libra.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
With chatty Mercury aligned with asteroid Pallas, you could meet someone who is so on fire concerning a subject, that their fascination becomes contagious. You might pick it up from them and want to get involved too. With electric Uranus in the mix, this can be a new departure for you, but one that’s very welcome. If you join the club you’ll make new friends too, Scorpio.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
While an opportunity could seem to show great promise and to devour your attention, there are reasons why you shouldn’t snap it up straight away. With Mercury about to reverse there’s more to this offer than meets the eye, and there are likely to be changes afoot over coming weeks which will need to be accounted for. Research it, but keep it on the backburner for now, Archer.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
A meeting with someone may have an uplifting effect, if it inspires you to embrace fresh opportunities and uncover new paths. If there’s something you’ve wanted to try, but perhaps needed some support to do so, they might act as a catalyst. Indeed, Mercury’s link with Uranus hints they could encourage your carefree and thrill-seeking side out into the open, Capricorn.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
It may be an idea to simplify matters as much as possible. With thoughtful Mercury preparing to reverse, the events or people you’re relying on to get ahead might not materialize as hoped. And while an earthy dynamic can see you pushing to make progress regardless of delays and doing a sterling job, don’t ignore the details Aquarius, as you could easily miss something crucial.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
While you may be keen to play a bigger part on the stage of life, doing so often comes with greater responsibilities. And it might be the thought of moving out of your comfort zone that’s causing hesitation. Today’s lunar phase can bring this issue to a head Pisces, especially if you’re confused as to what to do next. It could be that a conversation with a savvy friend helps you.
