March 21-April 19

An unexpected approach could pave the way to current success. Mercury is flying through your career sector, clearing away any muck around your goals — in addition, it allies with rebellious Uranus in your income sector to remind you that the tried-and-true method isn’t always the most effective one. Be willing to step out of the box in the way you do your work, because a bit of ingenious juggling could get you results worthy of recognition, perhaps with financial rewards alongside them.

April 20-May 20

You may feel drawn to become a new and improved version of yourself right now. There is a lovely trine between Mercury in your expansive 9th house and change-maker Uranus in your own sign. Mercury is helping you look beyond your usual boundaries and borders, while Uranus is showing you that change can indeed be a good thing. Make a point of exploring new ways of being and of taking inspiration from people different from yourself. Your true soul can blossom under these unique influences.

May 21-June 20

Unexpected messages could wing their way to your doorstep in the immediate future. Your ruler Mercury is gliding through your transformative 8th house, helping you read between the lines — especially when it coordinates with Uranus in your subconscious realm. These two planets are setting off sparks where you can’t quite see them, but you can absolutely feel them. Let yourself daydream and see where your thoughts take you! You never know when your wandering mind will return with buried treasure in tow.

June 21-July 22

People may change places in your life at the moment. Mercury in your relationship sector is making a potent bridge to Uranus in your group sector, so someone who has been orbiting on the edge of your circle could suddenly become much more important. This person might have romantic potential, but they may also be a terrific business partner. On the other hand, this could also bring a contract your way that is much to your advantage. It should be well worth signing!

July 23-August 22

The universe is offering you a chance to focus on the building blocks of your ambitions. Mercury in your 6th House of Daily Work is making a helpful trine to Uranus in your 10th House of Professional Goals, which could reveal a smarter way of working that boosts you toward the finish line much faster than before. Likewise, a VIP might offer you the opportunity to change up your schedule or responsibilities for something much better. You should be pleased with the results.

August 23-September 22

There’s no limit on enjoying yourself! Your ruler Mercury is dancing through Capricorn and your passionate 5th house, letting all the good times roll, and that energy is amplified as Mercury syncs up with Uranus in your adventurous 9th house. A fun opportunity could arrive from far away and quite out of the blue, or perhaps someone from a vastly different background will appear in your life. The more unusual the experience, the more you’ll probably like it. Try to be open to potential changes.

September 23-October 22

There’s a silver lining to the day that you’d be wise to take advantage of. Mercury is in your foundational 4th house, churning up new energy wherever you make your home. Plus, it also sympathizes with Uranus in your esoteric 8th house. This may signify a relative or roommate coming to the rescue unexpectedly. The 8th house deals with big money, so a windfall or loan could come when you need it most, especially if you’ve been planning to make any changes to your home.

October 23-November 21

Unexpected conversations are on the table. Mercury in your communication sector is syncing up with Uranus in your partnership sector, so there is a good chance that someone important will tell you something that surprises you. That isn’t to say it’s a bad surprise! The angle between the planets is a positive one, but Uranus loves to shock, so the best way to handle things is to keep an open mind. If someone invites you to hang out, feel free to say yes.

November 22-December 21

Your finances are vital at this time. The universe is curious about your budget with Mercury touring your income sector, and you can translate its influence into something incredibly useful as the messenger planet trines Uranus in your daily work sector. The chance to show off at the office could arrive out of the blue — perhaps as a last-minute job that only you can take care of or a client requesting your specific help. Either way, the results should definitely be in your favor.

December 22-January 19

Your usual boundaries can’t hold you back today, Capricorn. You’ve got your thinking cap on with clever Mercury settled in your sign, but when it supports Uranus in your creative 5th house, you may also feel called to break away from any limiting habits. It’s time to try being a new and improved version of yourself. Whether or not you were already toying with the idea of shaking things up, you’ve got cosmic inspiration to give this transformation a whirl. You might love the new you!

January 20-February 18

Life could seem rather unusual right now. You may feel distant from the world as Mercury visits your sleepy subconscious sector, but its helpful trine to Uranus in your foundational 4th house can help you come up with some brilliant ideas while quietly lounging around your place. Simply hanging out on the couch and letting your mind wander should result in some exciting possibilities winging their way to you, so don’t worry about outward activity. The most important things are happening on the inside today.

February 19-March 20

Friendly skies are calling you to get out and see what everyone is up to. Mercury in your social 11th house is humming in tune with Uranus in your local community sector, and together they’ll be stirring up plenty of excitement. At least think about calling up some friends and hitting the town, preferably trying something you’ve never done before. Even if you think you know your neighborhood like the back of your hand, you could uncover a few hidden gems you’ll absolutely love.
