Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Mercury turns retrograde in your sign today, dear Aries, and until April 25th, you’re in good shape for reorganization and reflection. You see the world through slightly different filters and can come up with some meaningful inner revelations. Communicating them under this influence may be difficult, but not everything needs to make sense at all times! This is a time of heightened inner awareness that favors meditation, reworking old plans, and reviewing past work. Some personal initiatives may stall or at least appear to move backward but can benefit from some refinements. You may not always be understood and should take extra time to ensure you’re clear in your communications. But while you may be putting your foot in your mouth occasionally, you’re also working on clarifying your thoughts and ideas and getting plenty of space to do so. At the same time, the shift today can be disorienting. Aim to take extra time to come to decisions and make commitments for now.Taurus
Mercury turns retrograde in your privacy sector today, dear Taurus, and this cycle turns your thought processes inward. Some of the decisions made and projects started in the last couple of weeks can come up for review. You could feel less confident in relying on your intuition, and both inner and outer “signals” are challenging to read until you recognize that you are looking at things in entirely new ways during this cycle that runs until April 25th. It would be wise to be especially clear when communicating about your inner world now. You can put your foot in your mouth or reveal something that you’d prefer to remain hidden. It’s a good cycle, however, for redoing and refining work already underway, for journaling, and for backtracking over the past to find previously overlooked ideas.Gemini
Your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde today, dear Gemini, and until April 25th, it’s especially favorable to look to the past, make refinements and edits to projects, and rethink problems from a different perspective. However, with the changeover today, there can be some chaos to deal with today revolving around communications that are misunderstood, lost, or overlooked. Mercury is spending time in your sector of friends and dreams during this retrograde cycle, emphasizing your communications with associates, groups, and friends. Past acquaintances or friends may appear during this cycle, or you may decide to reconnect with an old friend. Overlooked details may come to light in the weeks ahead, giving you a chance to change your mind or make important refinements and edits. Keep things light and aim to enjoy yourself rather than focus on the little things going wrong.Cancer
Mercury stations and turns retrograde today, dear Cancer, and matters from your past might be rehashed or recycled and circulated in the coming weeks (until April 25th). Some delays related to your career, professional dealings, or long-term plans are possible. It’s an excellent period for refining projects already underway and very helpful for highlighting issues you might usually overlook. It’s a good time for review, but there are better periods for definite answers. While this cycle can be beneficial for going over in-progress projects and discovering new ways of looking at old problems, the shift today can feel a little chaotic or confusing, particularly on a professional level or with business matters for you. For the best results, aim to be clear in your communications, or consider waiting out decisions and statements until you are clear-minded. Plans drawn up today may never come to pass.Leo
Mercury turns retrograde today, dear Leo, launching a strong cycle for review, refinement, and editing work. It can be a time to catch your breath and process things, allowing your feelings to catch up with your mind. There can be some need to review legal, educational, or travel matters during this retrograde that lasts until April 25th. Publishing efforts may require some editing before moving forward, for example. It would be wise to take a little extra care when presenting ideas, writing, and doing detailed work. You may not be seeing the whole picture, but you could be looking at things from a new perspective that ends up valuable. You may even decide to return to studies or personal interests that were put on hold or otherwise fell off the radar in the past.Virgo
Your ruler, Mercury, turns retrograde today, dear Virgo, and will remain retrograde until April 25th. This period offers you opportunities for doing research, refining plans, and personal introspection. You might deal with some confusion or delays related to financial commitments and shared resources, and possibly an intimate relationship. There can certainly be value in slowing down and considering past successes or misses so that you can better understand the present. You may do some thinking about previous partners, or someone from your past will be thinking about contacting you. As a general rule, it’s better to budget than spend or borrow during this period. While the tendency is to miss vital instructions or details today, as you grow more accustomed to this energy, you’ll find ways to make it work for you.Libra
The Moon moves to the bottom of your solar chart today, dear Libra, encouraging you to get in touch with your inner world and nurture your closest relationships. Also today, Mercury turns retrograde in your partnership sector[. It might come to your attention that some of the things you’ve recently started or communicated need some touching up. This is a helpful process, even if it may seem like you’re backspacing now. You might view a relationship from a different perspective in the coming weeks. Give others space and give yourself time to arrive at conclusions or decisions while Mercury continues its retrograde until April 25th, if possible. Communications can sometimes be muddled, or questions left hanging for the time being, but delays can also help you to understand your situation better as you see details you may have missed in the past. Previous partners can figure strongly during this cycle, whether this remains only in your mind or not!Scorpio
The Moon moves into your sector of communications and transport today, dear Scorpio, stirring your curiosity and desire to connect. However, Mercury turns retrograde today, which can sway your thinking and change your mind about recent decisions. Think in terms of review rather than pushing something brand new during Mercury’s retrograde cycle that lasts until April 25th. It may be best to slow down and attend to those things you rushed in the past. It’s also a time to see your life, particularly your daily affairs, work, health, or chores, from a different perspective. There can be some rethinking, delays, or editing related to these matters. You may be waiting for an answer, but it can lead to creative workarounds. Work-related mix-ups or redoing work can be part of the picture. Fortunately, this cycle has a unique way of revealing details you previously overlooked. The refinements you make as you navigate delays can be especially valuable later.Sagittarius
Mercury turns retrograde today, dear Sagittarius, prompting a time to slow down, take stock, and review in-progress projects. You may be dealing with delays, questions that are left hanging, and miscommunications during this cycle that lasts until April 25th. However, it’s also a period for reviewing whether your recent decisions are still viable. Particularly during the transition today, communication breakdowns are possible. Mercury spends the entire retrograde cycle in your sector of romance and creativity, and while some projects or processes may seem to be moving backward, it may very well be a realignment process. You think and express yourself in different ways that can work in your favor. You may need to revisit old issues in your relationships; people from the past tend to come back, or they are a mental focus now. It’s a good time to revisit old creative projects or ideas you didn’t have time to pursue or complete.Capricorn
Mercury turns retrograde today, dear Capricorn, and until April 25th, this cycle can help you see matters from an entirely different perspective, particularly your emotional life and issues related to family and home. While past errors might often crop up, you may want to take advantage of the time afforded you through delays to reevaluate what you are doing. You could find a mistake or an inconsistency that needs correcting. Communication with family may not always be as straightforward as you’d like, or there can be some level of chaos or mechanical problems around the home that require your attention. These are temporary! New initiatives may not be wise, but reworking and reorganizing your home and personal life can be especially fruitful now. Today, be exceptionally clear if getting your message across is important.Aquarius
The Moon heads into your privacy sector today, dear Aquarius, encouraging you to slow down and pace yourself for a couple of days. Mercury turns retrograde today, reinforcing this theme as it shifts directions today, as there can be some mix-ups or misunderstandings to manage. During this cycle that lasts until April 25th, studies, transportation, and communications can involve delays, reworking, or editing. It’s best to be flexible and vigilant about marking essential appointments and errands on your calendar! There may be the need to revisit old, unresolved issues with siblings, classmates, or neighbors, and mechanical issues with communication and transportation devices prompt some rethinking of how you connect and get around. Through these experiences, you might discover new ways to express yourself, and these are ways that wouldn’t have come to mind otherwise. Get all the facts before you jump into something today. In the weeks ahead, reviving old projects and reviewing and revising work already in progress can be incredibly fruitful.Pisces
Mercury turns retrograde today, dear Pisces, and until April 25th, there can be a change of mind or interest, possibly even a bit of regret when it comes to those things said or begun recently. This retrograde occurs in your sector of resources and assets, and you may need to review your finances or budget, or you could be dealing with lost or misplaced things. During this period, aim to take the time to rethink your sources of income and how you spend your cash, but put off finalizing anything significant just for now. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. Go at old problems from a new direction or perspective and open your mind to new ways of thinking and approaches. Certainly, it can be a good period to look to the past for answers to current problems.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
