Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Thinking comes easily to you, and the planets are asking you to direct your ideas towards home, family or property considerations. Long considered working from home or converting a hobby into a small enterprise? This can gain traction too.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
The people you encounter daily, locally or online, can bring a spark to your world. This could because of a meet up, a group or shared interest, but you can bring an effervescent quality to these connections, and a spark of excitement. Still, your attention span can be a little lower, so to ward off losing interest, you may find yourself juggling several strands, all out at once.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
You may have found yourself experiencing a lot of fated encounters, worldly-wise of late, but if your social scene has taken the celestial back seat, now’s a fine time to rekindle meaningful friendships, or to step up your social connections.

December 22 to January 21
Mercury’s move into fellow Earth sign Virgo can help you make sense of ideas or plans that have been gathering momentum.
