Aries
March 21 to April 20
Word jousting may be par for the course today, as a Mercury/Mars tie can encourage you to say it like it is. You might want to let someone know how you feel, but if the atmosphere is really charged, then any conversation could become very emotional. Still, with Venus in Libra, there may be a way to ease yourself out of this situation – if you want to keep things amiable.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
If you’ve been working hard to keep a relationship ticking over, then it could reach an interesting point when conversation is essential. If feelings are hurt, then tread carefully. What can make a difference is letting go of the need to be right. You may not be the one who started this whole thing. Even so, criticising won’t help, but understanding why they feel as they do, could.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Despite your lively exterior you do have a sensitive side, and this may show up if someone seems annoyed. This could occur now or over coming days, and you’ll be more likely to say what you think. It might involve a domestic issue and household expenses, or the cost of a makeover or other DIY project. Get an outside opinion from a friend or expert, as it could quickly resolve this.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
With Mercury and Mars aligning, your mind may be spinning as you attempt to find a solution to a complex problem. At this stage it could be difficult to know what to do next. And if there are powerful feelings involved, it may make things more awkward. Just let your instincts take over. Even if what you’re dealing with is complex, you’ll know exactly what you should do, and why.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
You may think there’s no way out of a financial dilemma, but you might have more options than you realise. If you’ve been thinking of cutting back on essentials and sacrificing those little treats, just pause. Even if things are a little tight just now, avoid feelings of helplessness. A chat with someone you trust could give you fresh perspectives and options, and one might prove perfect for you.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
With Mercury in your sign linking to Mars in Cancer, a conversation can be very constructive, as long as you aren’t too critical of what someone is doing to help you. Be thankful that they’re caring enough to reach out and give you a hand. You’ll have a supportive friend – if you show your appreciation with kind words or even a gift, rather than picking on and focusing on any irrelevant details.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
You could be doing things for people because you like to make them happy. And with sweet Venus now in your sign, you may be even more inclined to help whenever you can. Even so, you might need to learn about the power of ‘no’. Even though refusing a request could feel like a betrayal, the only person who will be suffering is yourself if you continue to be so obliging.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Your social life may be busy, and you could be asked to contribute time and energy to a key event. This might not chime with you any longer though, especially if you’ve been the go-to person who does all the hard work behind-the-scenes. If you sense that others are taking you for granted, then set firmer boundaries. Let others know how you really feel about this matter.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
With Mercury in Virgo aligning with Mars in Cancer and an intense zone, you could become very vocal. If you have something to say you won’t back down, and if you have an idea to share, others will quickly hear about it too. You can use this aspect to highlight the positives or to criticise. Focusing on achieving something good and worthwhile may be far better though.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Has someone unsettled you? If you talk back, then it could start something that lingers. If you can shrug this off, then it may well sort itself out over the coming days, which is likely the best option. You can find that channelling some of this energy into exercise or physical tasks leaves you more grounded. Or if you enjoy competitive sport, this too can help you to unwind and feel better.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Intense feelings may seek an outlet, and with planet of talk and thought Mercury in a powerful zone aligning with the feisty Mars in Cancer, you might be keen to get something out in the open. Doing so could be a relief, especially if you’ve held onto this for some time. But try not to be too hard on yourself. If you let your inner critic speak too loudly, you could feel a dip in confidence.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
You and your partner may have some lively conversations that could include everything you’ve wanted to say to each other for a while. This can be a great day to clear the air, as long as you don’t focus on all that’s wrong and forget to mention everything that’s good. Too much criticism might make things worse, but a constructive chat can be like pressing the reset button.
