ARIES 22 MAR - 20 APR

Mercury is reversing through your money zone, so strive to become more educated about your financial situation. If you don’t understand all the facts and figures, then find someone who does.

TAURUS 21 APR - 21 MAY

With Mercury reversing through your sign, things won’t go according to plan. So improvisation and patience are needed over the next few weeks, until Mercury goes direct again.

GEMINI 22 MAY - 21 JUN

Mercury – your ruling planet – goes retrograde for the next few weeks. So you’ll feel like slowing down and hibernating. But that will just make communication more confusing.

CANCER 22 JUN - 23 JUL

Be careful how you pass on information over the next three weeks, as Mercury is retrograde. If you are vague, then you’ll be misunderstood. Clever Crabs will adopt a cautious approach.

LEO 24 JUL - 23 AUG

Over the next three weeks, retro Mercury confuses communication – especially with work colleagues. But, if you are clear and concise, then you can still get your message across loud and clear.

VIRGO 24 AUG - 23 SEP

You need to be a very flexible over the next three weeks. Others won’t behave in rational and predictable ways that you can clearly fathom. So strive to keep the lines of communication open.

LIBRA 22 SEP - 23 OCT

If you can, then avoid signing important contracts over the next few weeks, as Mercury reverses through your joint finances and ‘money-from-others’ zone. Instead, be patient and wait.

SCORPIO 24 OCT - 22 NOV

Expect conversation overload as Mercury reverses through your relationship zone. So make sure you choose your words wisely, otherwise you’ll just upset family, friends and/or colleagues.

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV - 21 DEC

With Mercury now retrograde, avoid signing contracts and buying big ticket items – like a computer or car – until after May 3. Plus get any health problems checked as soon as possible.

CAPRICORN 22 DEC - 22 JAN

A relationship with a friend or acquaintance is about to go through a tricky patch, as Mercury confuses communication and heightens sensitivities. A dash of diplomacy will see you through.

AQUARIUS 22 JAN - 19 FEB

Prepare for some difficult domestic dramas and family fiascos, as Mercury reverses through your home zone. So avoid bringing up controversial subjects until a more suitable time.

PISCES 20 FEB - 20 MAR

With Mercury reversing through your social networking zone, double-check all posts, tweets and emails before you press send. It will be easy to send the wrong message to the wrong person!
