Aries

March 21 to April 20

An awkward angle between Mercury and Jupiter means your ideas are daring, future-focused and possibly a little too grand for the current mood at home or within close circles. You’re dreaming big and speaking freely, but not everyone might be on the same page – or even on the same chapter. Conversations could feel slightly off, so take a breath, soften your message and consider the emotional undercurrents.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Your clever ideas about work, career or public image may not be easily accepted by those closest to you. You may be planning ahead while they’re concerned with how it all feels, and the two aren’t exactly syncing. A well-meaning suggestion could be misread, or a conversation may drift off course. Don’t let minor miscommunications derail your momentum. Instead, try blending your brilliant plans with heartfelt reassurance.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

As Mercury angles uncomfortably toward Jupiter, your ideas are wonderful but maybe a touch too much for practicality’s sake. You’re brimming with enthusiasm and ready to plan or publish something grand. But you’re also nudged to consider emotional needs, especially around values and finances. Avoid overpromising or skipping important details in your excitement. Sometimes the best moves start with smaller, thoughtful steps.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

One part of you may want to take an emotionally intelligent leap, while another clings to familiar comfort zones. Discussions around shared resources, power dynamics or big plans might stir mixed feelings, especially if others are all logic and no empathy. Resist the urge to overdo or overexplain. Instead, trust your inner compass and pause before making big decisions. The right answer blends intuition with innovation.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Communication might get a little tangled as you’re likely so eager to connect, share ideas or make plans, but not everyone may be ready to play along. There could be hidden emotional undercurrents or unspoken fears at play, especially in close relationships or team dynamics. Rather than push, pause and listen between the lines. You’re very charming, but a touch of sensitivity will go further than intellect today.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Your brilliant ideas around efficiency, work or wellness may not be received as smoothly as you’d hoped, especially in group settings or with friends. You may be aiming to solve problems, but others might be more focused on feelings than solutions. Don’t let emotional undercurrents throw you off. Instead, attune your message to the mood of the room. A little warmth goes a long way today.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

You may be brimming with inspired ideas, but those in authority or traditional types might need convincing. Your brilliance shines, but not everyone is ready for your innovative perspective, especially if it feels too out-of-the-box. Don’t let a lukewarm response dim your enthusiasm. This is your cue to fine-tune your message, as a blend of artistry and diplomacy can win hearts and minds.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Today’s animated Mercury-Jupiter tie-up can amplify your desire to expand. You may be dreaming big, but explaining those dreams could be tricky. You might have a bold plan to renovate, relocate or shake things up, but your message could come across as too idealistic for more cautious companions. Don’t be pushy – instead, build bridges. Blend strategy with sensitivity and you’ll turn raised eyebrows into raised glasses.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

While Mercury in Aquarius supercharges your mind, Jupiter in Cancer is tugging at deeper emotional cords. You may be bursting to share bold insights, but others might not understand. You mean well, you always do, but not everyone is ready for blunt genius. Take a breath before diving into sensitive conversations, especially around shared finances or intimate matters. It will make a positive difference.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 20

Your sensible ideas might clash with someone else’s emotional expectations. You might lay out a perfectly logical plan, budget, goal or timeline, but a partner or close connection may need a little more motivation than just the facts. Don’t dismiss the feelings behind the feedback. A thoughtful conversation that blends both strategy and sensitivity can smooth things over and strengthen bonds.

Aquarius

January 21 to February 19

With Mercury buzzing in your sign and angling towards the expansive Jupiter, your enthusiasm can be high, but your focus may drift when it comes to everyday tasks or routines. You’ll likely have bold plans, hold daring conversations and be filled with innovative ideas, but your energy levels may be quietly rebelling in the background. Watch out for overcommitting or promising more than you can deliver. A little structure helps you shine.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

Your creative spark is amplified and inspiration is flowing, but turning those dreams into action can be another thing. You might have a brilliant idea while daydreaming or journaling but putting it into words or action could prove to be more illusive. Don’t be discouraged if others don’t immediately “get” your vision. Write it down and give it time to take shape. A bit of planning can bring your imaginative gems your way.
