Mercury in overdrive

Mercury is featuring heavily over the next few weeks. With the sun, Mercury retrograding and Venus all in Gemini, there will be a sense of urgency to complete, finalise and communicate projects and plans.

Have you been feeling like the rabbit from Alice In Wonderland (I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date)? That will be Mercury hurrying us up. Time feels like it is speeding up, which is actually an illusion. It’s more like we have to cram more into the same amount of time.

However, because Mercury is retrograding, things may not go as smoothly as we like. Forewarned is forearmed so be one step ahead, check information, times, schedules and then double-check. Arrive early, with time to spare just in case some unforeseen circumstance should cross your path.

It is a fabulous time to go back and finish a project you’ve had simmering on the back burner for a while, write letters that you’ve been putting off, clean up your computer, emails, get things fixed and tell someone you love them. Just do it!

Start looking at those dark secrets hidden in the depths. Think about taking your rightful place in your world and don’t be afraid to exercise your talents.

Are you still stuck on a notion? Is your transition proving difficult? Good. This will bring out the direction you need and force you to consider the alternative, which really isn’t so bad.

You are the sign of transformation so this should come easy to you right? Not necessarily. You are also a fixed, stubborn sign.

capricorn

There’s a balancing act going on between taking care of your needs and the needs of another. A big part of personal development includes being true to yourself and sometimes that can upset others. If there is no real harm, e.g. death and destruction, then it must be a worthy cause. This is what you need to weigh up.

aquarius

Single Pisceans will be questioning why they are single. Those of you in a couple may be seeing areas of improvement. All in all it comes down to you, your past, your needs and your health. It’s all linked really so look for the bridge that closes the gap. It will take a little more patience and fresh perspective.
