ARIES MAR 21 APR 20

Have you read the small print properly? If you check the details, you’ll see that it’s not possible. There’s a rule that says you can’t do that. You need to talk to someone who is not here if you want to sort that out. As Mercury edges towards turning retrograde in your sign, you might as well be prepared to hear statements like those above. It doesn’t mean that you won’t have access to the energy to achieve what you’ve set out to achieve, though. When it really counts you know who you can trust… you.

Be reassured that you’re in a good position. You can influence this situation and mould it to fit the commitment you’ve made to yourself. And, if you’re not sure where you want to be heading, this is the perfect time to find out.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

Some people say that it’s a bad idea to start a new project when Mercury is retrograde. But what if you have no choice.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

You’re not normally known for being belligeren­t, but you’re not in the mood to be told what to do by anyone. You’re feeling argumentat­ive and are finding lots of reasons to confront people about the choices they’re making that affect your life. No wonder you’re a bit cross. No one seems very keen to listen to your point of view. With Mercury about to turn retrograde, this feeling will soon be over. Your ruler’s link to Pluto tomorrow suggests that you have much more influence than you think.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Instead of thinking, try feeling. Instead of talking, try to listen. With Mercury preparing to turn retrograde, your puzzle-solving analytical mind will be tuned to a frequency where it can overthink and complicate things. Logical explanatio­ns may be desirable, but they’re likely to remain elusive. There’s a possibilit­y that you’re over-reading someone’s response to a problem that you’re wrapped up in. If you allow space for the unpredicta­ble, you’ll find that your instincts know how to find the answer you need.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Notice how when you seem to be making progress, something comes along and puts a spanner in the works. So, suppose you imagine life to be like a ballroom dance with a series of moves which include steps forwards and backwards? When you watch the whole routine, it looks beautiful. It’s only when you’re taking the backward step that it feels as if the move is counterint­uitive to progress. Don’t worry about what seems to be in your way now. You can easily and stylishly side-step any obstacles.

If you’re too soft you become sponge-like and end up absorbing the difficult emotions of the people around you. Whichever you choose, you end up being vulnerable. In an ideal world, you’d find equilibriu­m and move between the extremes as required. With Mercury turning retrograde, being strong but sensitive is just what’s needed. And as the Sun and Venus link to your rulers, it’s what you can have.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

When we look to the future, with its unknowns and impossibil­ities there’s a rallying call we could all join in with: ‘What do we want?’ ‘Time machines’. ‘When do we want them?’ ‘Irrelevant’! But no matter how much we might want to, we simply can’t turn back the hands of time. Fortunatel­y, we have the next best thing on the horizon. Tomorrow, Mercury turns retrograde. Although there’s no option to change what’s happened in your life, there is a chance to change how you feel about it.
