4 Zodiacs Who Should Prepare For A Big Conversation Starting 6/17

If you’ve been considering having an important conversation, these next few weeks could be the perfect time to do so!

On June 17th, Mercury, the planet of intellect and communication, moves into the sentimental water sign of Cancer. Cancer is mainly associated with home, domestic affairs, and deep emotions, meaning that our approach to these conversations will likely be met with more nurturing yet passionate qualities. Our heads and our hearts will long to work together to make these talks as productive as possible.

Check your signs below (Rising, Sun, and Mercury) to see which zodiac signs should prepare to have a big conversation over these next few weeks!

Cancer

It’s time for you to be heard, Cancer. Mercury is moving through your 1st House of Self and Identity, opening the door to have conversations about who you are and what you value. If you’ve been holding back on expressing yourself, you may feel more empowered to do so now, especially with family members or those you hold dear. Expressing your needs and wants clearly is worthwhile, rather than expecting others to read between the lines and figure it out. You’re used to ensuring others’ needs are handled, but what about yours? You can clearly and effectively let people know what you need, and it’s necessary for your relationships to flourish. Your needs matter, and now is the best time to speak up.

Libra

There is power in your words, Libra, and you should use it wisely. As Mercury transits your 10th House of Career and Public Image, you can command attention and speak with authority, especially in your work and public environments. If you’ve been contemplating a conversation with your boss about a possible promotion or raise, now could be your best opportunity to confidently communicate about making it a reality. You may also find you’re having meaningful conversations with those closest to you about your career and long-term ambitions, especially those impacted by your choices. You may feel more confident in your speech, but remember that how you approach the topics matters, too—your diplomatic side can come in handy over these next few weeks if you’re willing to lean into it. 

Capricorn

Your relationships are worth the important conversations, Capricorn. With Mercury transiting your 7th House of Partnerships, it’s worth examining your current relationships and addressing the red flags or uncertainties you’ve been holding in. While it’s easier to ignore more minor issues, sometimes it’s best to get to the heart of the matter right away, and this period may be easier for you to be more gentle and nurturing in your approach to these talks. If things are going well in your relationships, talking about the future may also be an important conversation. The important thing is to determine the state of your relationships rather than rest on autopilot and assume things are fine. Your relationships are an important investment, and you want to ensure you act like it.

Aries

Home is where your heart is, Aries. As Mercury moves through your 4th House of Home and Roots, this period could work well for discussing domestic matters that need your attention. Whether it’s big conversations on moves, moving in, or how the household is managed, it’s worth discussing anything bothering you while you have the clarity and focus. You could also find it’s worth talking about your childhood or family history, as these talks could pave the way to new realizations about yourself. If you’ve been holding onto some difficult emotions surrounding family or relatives, now could also be a time to unpack and sort through those feelings by talking them out with someone you trust. Home should be where you feel safe and secure, and it’s worth having important conversations to keep it that way.
