ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

Prepare for a very fast-paced couple of weeks, Aries! Your mind will be feeling boisterous and expansive, as you want to sense, feel and explore everything. With Mercury moving through your sector of growth, you will now be more focused on how you can think big about your life. Learning will come easy to you now and you’ll be surprised by how much wisdom you actually possess. Travel, academics, legalities, spirituality, media projects or international matters may be just some of the themes that consume your thoughts.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

Where you stand in your relationships will be on the top of your mind in the upcoming weeks, Taurus. You may sense that where you thought you stood and where you want to be are two different places. However, flying solo isn’t ideal at this time — you’ll fare better if you discuss your feelings or renegotiate a better way moving forward. Another way this could affect you is that you’re balancing your finances, assets and investments.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Relationships will be consuming your thoughts in the weeks ahead, Gemini. With your planetary ruler dancing across the sky from you, it’s an excellent time to focus on union, trust and commitments. Legalities and negotiations are especially likely to consume your mind and you could find an excellent opportunity for agreement.

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

Communication projects and situations around work and your employment will be especially apparent in the weeks to come, Cancer. You may find that you’re learning new skills for your job o,r instead, going through some important discussions with coworkers about how you can fine-tune your approach to successful collaboration. Some Cancers will have new clients, contracts or responsibilities that come their way.

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

Creative ideas will fill your mind in the weeks ahead, Leo! You’ll find that your artistic spark is igniting, and you’re able to open your vision of life. If you are involved in creative industries, you’ll find new contracts or opportunities may appear. However, another way this could affect you is that you’re focusing a bit more on matters of the heart, whether it is romance, dating, children or recreational hobbies. Have fun and loosen up.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

Domestic concerns will be especially notable for you in the weeks ahead, Virgo. There could be a lot of discussion happening at home or with your family. Getting others to agree with your point of view will be important at this time, especially as you’re the one likely to be taking the lead and have a solid opinion about how the home, domestic and family situations should be handled. Do so with grace and the others will follow.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

Your words are magic in the weeks ahead, Libra. With Mercury dancing through your sector of communications, you have a clear vision of what you’re thinking and how you’d like to broadcast it to the world! On one hand, you could be very focused on launching a communications-related project very soon, such as a website or even just updating your resume or business cards. Use this time wisely because you have a very special persuasive touch at this time.

Keep your eyes out for sales, though, as you could find some incredible ones.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

As Mercury dances through your zodiac sign, you’ll find that your ability to communicate, persuade, seduce and connect is stronger than ever.

Brainstorming will get you very far in the weeks to come, Capricorn.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

Get ready for a fiery time with your friends, Aquarius! In the weeks ahead, you’ll notice that your social circle is blowing up your texts, calls and DMs even more than usual.

How will Mercury in Sagittarius affect us?

Get ready to feel like the life of the party! Mercury — as the planet of the mind — will step into the center of the ring and ignite like a fire dancer during his time in Sagittarius. That will encourage us to be more extroverted, passionate and optimistic. Our minds will expand, as we hunger for experiences, conversations and knowledge that will grant us more insight into ourselves, others and the world. Mercury always has a unique time in Sagittarius, as he can process information and data on a grand scale, opening to a hopeful vision of what life can be.

Communications during this time will be spicy, sexy and more impulsive, as we speak first and think later depending on how we’re feeling. While this could make us a bit more brash, it can also create a very fast, exciting pace for life.

Sagittarius is known as one of the most humorous zodiac signs, so during this time our own individual sense of laughter and entertainment will increase. We’ll be able to turn even the simplest conversation into a show, dazzling people with our sass and sparkle. Feeling feisty yet? Oh, just wait — it’s coming!

This is an excellent period to dream big and think about the overall plans that you have, rather than just the minute day-to-day routines you’re repeating. Mercury in Sagittarius wants you to be a bit of a rebel and to step outside of the box and find ways to connect with others who are different from you — especially those who have a unique background, lifestyle, place of origin or culture.

However, one thing to watch for is that you may end up finding that you’re putting a million irons in the fire and not following through with any of them. You could also end up talking endlessly without ever listening for feedback or putting ideas into motion. So take a breath, listen and then continue.

Dec. 11, 2021: Mercury holds hands with Jupiter. This is a beautiful day for negotiations, making deals and contemplating long-term plans. You’ll have a hint of luck and optimism on your side. This is also spectacularly social energy, so let your hair down and have some fun, too!
