It can be a comfortable, pressure-free day of relating to friends, associates, and partners. People are drawn to you quite naturally. Also today, Mercury moves to the top of your solar chart where it will transit until January 16th. This cycle brings more mental activity and involvement with career, reputation, and goal-setting activities. You already have a lot of planetary action in this area of your solar chart, and Mercury here now can help you make a lot of sense of it all. Communications are a little more studied or guarded during this cycle, and this can be necessary since others are more inclined to take you seriously.
Taurus
The Moon heads to the top of your solar chart for a couple of days, dear Taurus, and you want to feel in charge of your life. This can be a good time to enjoy the rewards of recent accomplishments and to consider or set new goals. There can be particular joy in what you’re doing or your responsibilities today. You have a good sense for business and management with the Moon and Venus aligning today. Mercury enters your solar ninth house and will transit this sector of your chart until January 16th. You already have a lot going on in this area, and Mercury brings with it a need to make sense of everything. You might frequently think about ways to enjoy a change of pace and experiences beyond the ordinary and mundane during this cycle. There is a greater hunger for learning, but not of the rote kind. You want instead to expand your knowledge. This transit stimulates your curiosity, or mental restlessness if you’re not feeding your interests.
Gemini
The Moon moves into your spirit sector for a couple of days, dear Gemini. There can be an emotional need to escape the usual routine, introducing some variety into your day, or taking a detour. The goal is to refresh your spirit. Aim to grab opportunities to lighten up and release stress. There could be a chance to pursue a special interest, or there can be an opportunity to enjoy a change of scenery with someone special. Also today, Mercury enters your solar eighth house where it will transit until January 16th. Currently, this is a very active area of your solar chart. This transit places further emphasis on your intimate life, mysteries, psychology, investigations, long-term strategies, and an attraction to all that is taboo or hidden. You’re looking for deeper meanings or the hidden agenda now. Mercury here helps bring more objectivity to complicated and deep-rooted emotions and circumstances. Discussions can intensify quickly, yet you can detach yourself from topics enough to keep things rational, logical, and fair.
Cancer
The Moon moves into your intimacy sector for a couple of days, dear Cancer. There’s a desire to turn inward as you examine your motivations or to take a break from the action so that you can observe and strategize. You may be attracted to multi-layered situations and all that is hidden today. You have a straightforward yet gentle touch in your closest relationships right now. Also today, Mercury moves into your opposite sign for a stay until January 16th. During this cycle, there can be fantastic opportunities to learn through your interactions with others. The idea now is to look at areas of your life from a different perspective. This position could also mean others have a lot to say, or a lot of input, in your life at this stage. There is currently a lot of activity in your partnership sector, and now with Mercury here as well, you’re in a better position to sort things through rationally.
Leo
The Moon moves into your opposite sign for a couple of days, dear Leo. With this transit, you are challenged to find a balance in your life. You are received particularly well right now as the Moon aligns with Venus in your partnership zone. Others can be helpful.

Also today, Mercury enters your solar sixth house where there is currently quite a bit of activity. During this cycle that lasts until January 16th, you can become quite caught up in the details of your everyday life. You may be dissecting problems, working on solving tricky matters, and finding solutions to practical problems. Do watch for over-thinking and over-analyzing situations. However, you’ll do well if you put extra effort into organizing your space and seek out information that helps you improve your health, habits, and daily routines.
Virgo
The Moon moves into your work and health sector for a couple of days, dear Virgo. The idea now is to handle little problems before they manage to grow and take over your life, but give yourself frequent breaks if possible, and time to think, imagine, and reflect. It’s also a great day for approaching others and harmonizing with them, particularly those you deal with as you pursue your health or daily routines. Also today, Mercury enters your solar fifth house for a stay until January 16th.

Sagittarius
You can be comfortably busy today, dear Sagittarius, with the Moon’s move into your communications sector meeting up with Venus there. You are especially amenable right now and happy to cater to the people you care about. Others are quick to cooperate with you as well. Negotiations can bring very successful outcomes. Also today, Mercury enters your solar second house, which is currently a high-traffic area of your chart. During this cycle that lasts until January 16th, you’re in great shape for focusing on priorities. You’re drawn more to concrete facts and certainties than dreams and visions just for now. This simplifies your life on some levels, although you could be missing critical spiritual considerations when making decisions and drawing conclusions. It’s a fine time to analyze and sort out your finances.
Capricorn
Comfort and pleasure are in high focus today, dear Capricorn, and may drive decision-making. The Moon moves into your resources sector and aligns with Venus there.

Also today, Mercury moves into your sign for a stay until January 16th. You more readily express your ideas and talk about yourself or your plans during this cycle. You communicate your personal experiences more often, and others seem to be listening to your thoughts and opinions. However, you’re also more inclined to make your choices and decisions independently.
Aquarius
The Moon moves into your sign today, dear Aquarius, and you quite naturally take the lead or act independently today. The emotional tone of the day is set by the qualities that come most naturally to you, and you have a stronger need for comfort and pleasure right now. Enjoy the pleasant vibes of the Moon coming together with Venus today. It may be a good day for extra special “me time.” You are more inclined to declare your needs and feelings now, and you tend to do so quite honestly and charmingly! Mercury moves into your solar twelfth house today and will transit there until mid-January. You’ve had a lot of activity in this area of your chart, and now Mercury can help you sort everything out. While this can be a cycle of limbo for some issues, it’s a strong time for reflection. Sorting through recent experiences is likely. Ideas are, in fact, in the developmental stage, and you intuitively sense that you shouldn’t share them until they–and you–are ready.
Pisces
The Moon moves into your hidden privacy sector today, dear Pisces, and you may want to hide away in a similar manner. It’s a time for recouping your energy. Thanks to the Moon’s alignment with Venus, you’re likely to enjoy private time thoroughly now. Activities that honor your need to reconnect with your inner spirit are particularly timely now. Mercury moves into your solar eleventh house today, however, where it will transit until January 16th. You already have a significant showing of cosmic activity in this area of your chart, and Mercury’s appearance here brings more attention to teams, friendships, networking, groups, community, and causes, particularly on mental levels. It’s an inventive period for ideas, although it’s not always the most practical time. You are particularly interested in enjoying yourself, fulfilling happiness goals, making contact, and reaching out to like-minded people. Group activities and friendships can be more involving. You’re keeping abreast of current affairs and happenings with friends or in your community and networks.
