Aries
A friend has something to say, Aries. You may want to keep to yourself during the Pisces moon, but this won’t fly in your social circles. Someone wants to pull you aside for a chat when Mercury in Aquarius conjuncts the sun in Aquarius in your eleventh house of collaboration. Likewise, you may have something to say to them. The conversation should go over well as long as both parties are open to what each other wants to address. Your heart-to-heart could even result in plans for the week, or a more meaningful friendship that will have a positive impact on your life.
Taurus
You’re the talk of the town, Taurus. A friend or connection may give you a heads up that everyone is buzzing about you, since Mercury in Aquarius will conjunct the sun in Aquarius in your tenth house of notoriety. People might be buzzing about your career path, last accomplishment, next goal, and so on. The conversations may not be inherently positive or negative, but more curious about what you’ll go on to do next. You may want to detach yourself from what everyone’s saying if you feel like the pressure to perform is starting to weigh on you. Just focus on doing your best.
Gemini
Is this what you want to do, Gemini? Have an honest conversation about your current journey, as Mercury in Aquarius conjuncts the sun in Aquarius in your ninth house of exploration. You may have second thoughts regarding a trip, educational endeavor, publishing goal, or belief system. Although you may want to work through this on your own, it would be wise to seek out a teacher or guide. Someone you trust may offer a different, but necessary perspective on your current predicament. Their thoughts and opinions could help you decide on your next steps or feel confident that you’re on the right track.
Cancer
Being vulnerable doesn’t have to be an overly emotional experience, Cancer. Express yourself without fear of being judged, since Mercury in Aquarius will conjunct the sun in Aquarius in your eighth house of taboo. The cosmic alignment might initially feel overwhelming if you struggle with guilt, shame, or grief. Instead of letting these feelings hold you back, the Mercury-sun alliance will encourage you to step forward. Don’t hide in the darkness any longer. You will find strength and power in expressing your innermost thoughts and feelings. Plus, you might be pleasantly surprised to find that you can be open without breaking down.
Leo
What do you want in a relationship, Leo? Be honest, because the sun in Aquarius will conjunct Mercury in Aquarius in your seventh house of commitment. Talking about what you desire will help you determine where you stand in a relationship. You could realize that this isn’t the right time to focus on a romantic or professional connection if you’d rather focus on yourself. The cosmic energy could also help you figure out your bottom line. Boundaries, goals, desires, and more could also come up. Be prepared for the other party to express their desires as well, since a relationship is a two-way street.
Virgo
An important conversation regarding work or health will arise, Virgo. Don’t stress, since the sun in Aquarius forming a conjunction with Mercury in Aquarius will provide clarity to your sixth house of the mundane. You may have wondered about a pending job application, your current standing in your workplace, or had a health question lingering in the back of your mind. Answers will finally find you, but this doesn’t mean that there’s positive or negative news awaiting you. If anything, you will finally know where you stand, so use this knowledge to create a plan of action to move forward on a healthier, happier note.
Libra
Time to DTR, Libra. A light-hearted fling could become something more, since the sun in Aquarius will conjunct Mercury in Aquarius in your fifth house of passion. You may have gone out or hooked up with someone for a while now. Either you or your lover might wonder where this is going. Could this be your soulmate, or are they destined to be your friends with benefits? You will never know until you bring it up. It can be scary to have the “What are we?” conversation but having it will help you determine where you stand with your lover and what you want in love.
Scorpio
Address the elephant in the room, Scorpio. Something in your personal life needs to be discussed, because Mercury in Aquarius will conjunct the sun in Aquarius in your fourth house of home. You may need to sit down with family members or housemates to go over something. It could have to do with your boundaries if you need to work on your interpersonal relationships. Chores, household responsibilities, and other pertinent obligations could also come up. The other party might have concerns to address as well, so be prepared to hear their side of the story. Regardless, this conversation will likely improve your quality of living.
Sagittarius
Be honest, Sagittarius. Say what everyone’s been thinking once Mercury in Aquarius conjuncts the sun in Aquarius in your third house of communication. You may have withheld your opinions until now. Perhaps you were hesitant to speak up if you were worried about rocking the boat or having a disagreement with a close friend. But you cannot hold your tongue any longer. It’s time to come clean. However, you can be direct and forthright without being hurtful. Find a decent way to express your sentiments without adding salt to injury. After all, you’ll catch more flies with honey than you will with vinegar.
Capricorn
Ask for more, Capricorn. Speak up if you want something, since the sun in Aquarius will conjunct Mercury in Aquarius in your second house of wealth. You may have waited for this moment to arrive to ask for what you’re owed. The cosmic energy could assist with asking for a raise or promotion at work. However, you could also use this to ask for friends to pay you back or return items they borrowed from you. No matter what, you have to advocate for yourself if you want to be financially secure and stable. Never apologize for asking for what you deserve.
Aquarius
Be true to yourself in your interactions and conversations today, Aquarius. Don’t hesitate to express yourself when the sun in Aquarius conjuncts Mercury in Aquarius in your first house of identity. It can be scary to be authentic, especially if you’re around disingenuous or overly critical individuals. You may worry about being misjudged, misconstrued, or misunderstood if you’re not careful with your words. Although this may happen, you shouldn’t let this hold you back from showing up authentically. If someone asks you for your opinion, give it. You might be pleasantly surprised by how others receive your honesty and originality.
Pisces
Pay attention to the signs cautioning you, Pisces. Spirit will send numerous messages throughout today, since the sun in Aquarius will conjunct Mercury in Aquarius in your twelfth house of unconsciousness. You may have symbolic dreams that linger in the back of your mind long after you awaken. It might be useful to write down what you can remember, along with looking up the meaning of your dreams or pulling tarot cards to intuit them. Unusual animal omens, angel numbers, and other serendipities will find you when you least expect it. Take note of what comes that feels aligned, because there are no coincidences.
