Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Mercury turns direct after retrograde motion for over three weeks, dear Aries. It’s good news, but there can be some disorientation temporarily since it’s a shift of direction.

Further information can arrive that facilitates decision-making. Aim to work on activities that help clear up delays and set the ball rolling to make progress. For now, a Sun-Jupiter transit enables you to see the bright side of things. Good feelings tend to be reciprocated today, and you may feel especially supported with your ideas and interests. There can be a strong sense of mutual harmony and a general boost in feelings of peace and security with and through others. Relaxing recreational activities can appeal and might even be a little therapeutic–it can be a great time to seek and find release for stress or strain.Taurus
