It’s an important day for understanding elements of the past that have prevented you from reaching your highest potential. Self-improvement activities are particularly attractive now.

This can be a time for enjoying some free-form thinking and entertaining ideas that take you outside your usual bounds. You can come up with exciting and inventive ideas on how to handle recent problems or challenges. Private information or a secret can figure strongly.

Still, detaching or disengaging just a little can help you arrive at fabulous ideas. It seems that stepping back from a problem helps you visualize solutions. Listen to your intuition as you dream up new ways to pursue long-term happiness goals and novel methods or strategies.

Today’s energies are good for zooming out and considering the bigger picture, dear Leo. You may be feeling quite inspired, and great ideas or conversations can result. Today’s Mercury-Uranus alignment can boost your confidence in a recent idea or might lead to breakthrough thinking on a business or career prospect, or a long-term goal. You’re not content with the ordinary or familiar today, and this shows in your output. Avoid overdoing this mental discontent, and you’ll use it to brighten your future and advance your goals. Ideas are fresh and exciting, and you may arrive at some genuinely novel solutions to problems. Interesting turns in your career are possible now.

Your confidence is strong and building in new ideas, dear Virgo. Today’s Mercury-Uranus alignment is powerful for generating exciting new ideas, or for interesting information coming your way. You could have a breakthrough of sorts on an intellectual level or regarding a belief. Something you learn or a conversation about a philosophical or technical matter can be motivating. There can be a conversation that leads to a turning point in a relationship or new insight into a belief or previously held opinion. Opinions can change suddenly as a result, and so can interests. Try not to latch onto new projects before putting in some effort with the ones already in progress that may be losing their novelty. However, do consider ideas and insights coming in, as they can be inspired. This transit also helps move you forward, although it’s more about quick assessments and sudden ideas and insights than calculated moves. The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, suggesting a real need to wind down, even if you’re mentally excited.Libra
Clarity seems to come from mental detachment today, dear Libra, with Mercury and Uranus coming into alignment. Ideas coming to you can be particularly inspired. There can be news coming in or ideas generated about your finances, debts, or attachments that are surprising but also very useful to you. Something revealing or the missing puzzle piece of a mystery can emerge. There can be a revelation about an intimate relationship or a sudden craving for more independence happening now. You’re likely to feel excited, and others may find your ideas or insights quite fascinating. You’re ready to put a bad habit or draining element of the past behind you. The potential for feeling all wound up is also strong, and it’s best to watch for this since it might interfere with breakthrough thinking. Some of your inner stirrings or realizations can seem to break through boundaries and may even feel a little uncomfortable, but they’re designed to push you forward.Scorpio
Today holds useful energy for detaching and letting your mind wander, dear Scorpio. A Mercury-Uranus alignment today can mean a breakthrough conversation or idea generated with or about a partner, or a missing piece of information surfaces that is a game-changer. You’re attracting people who have unusual ideas or insights into your life right now, and someone’s perspective can lead you on interesting mental detours or trains of thought. Interactions are stimulating and can lead to new ideas, methods, and directions. Perhaps a significant other can inspire you to think outside of the box and to make positive changes. It’s an exciting time, but do watch for impulsiveness now. The Moon spends the day at the top of your solar chart, suggesting a goal-oriented focus. Your responsibilities are grabbing your attention more than usual.Sagittarius
It’s easier than usual to open your mind to new possibilities today, dear Sagittarius, and you may very well arrive at surprising ideas in the process. Mercury and Uranus come together in your work and health sector today, and there can be sudden new insights in these areas of life, changes in schedules, or surprise news that throws you for a loop. You may arrive at inventive new methods to handle work, chores, or health matters, or you could feel inspired to start up a new project or health and fitness endeavor. It’s important not to speak too quickly today, but it’s just as vital to pay attention to brainwaves. Conversations can be alarmingly frank but also quite refreshing. It’s an excellent time for experimenting with ideas and entertaining different methods for animating your routines. New information might help you make positive changes. You can have ideas swirling in your head, and it’s exciting, although it can also be hard to wind down.Capricorn

News coming in today can set you on a new path or unblock a stalled initiative.Aquarius
Today can be exciting for satisfying conversation and inspired ideas, dear Aquarius. Mercury and Uranus come into alignment, helping you release yourself from constraints.

You can feel some nervous excitement about new ideas or plans that are forming, and changes seem to be on the horizon, which can be about physical alterations such as moves or reorganization, or about your approach to connecting with loved ones and expressing your feelings. Conversations can be frank or surprising. Mental refreshment is likely as you weigh your options and consider new possibilities. It can also be a tense day, so aim to center yourself so that decision-making is clear.Pisces
