Quicksilver Mercury enters ambitious Capricorn, which gives us the advantage of knowing what to say and exactly how and when to say it, to impress the right people. BUT this will take a few days to really become clear as it shrugs off a confusing link to Neptune.
We may be less vocal than usual, but every word will reach its target and do exactly what we intend it to. This way we’ll stand out and have maximum impact.
Aries 21 March – 20 April
Old beliefs can jostle with fresh insights and you could find yourself questioning what you’ve always ‘known’ to be true. Don’t rush though as some gems are worth retaining while others may be ready for an upgrade. Then as Mercury speeds into practical Capricorn, your focus can sharpen. Suddenly, career plans click into place, and conversations with colleagues or bosses gain traction. It’s a powerful time to make your mark.
Taurus 21 April – 21 May
A friend’s blurred boundaries may leave you feeling off balance. Trust your instincts and gently but firmly reset the rules. You’ll feel lighter for it. Meanwhile, as inquisitive Mercury shifts into your sector of adventure it brings insights that are like a fresh breeze. It’s the perfect moment to plan a purposeful journey or dive into a subject that feeds your soul and your future. Study, travel or teach what you love and enjoy it.
Gemini 22 May – 21 June
Someone’s heartfelt insights could light a fire under your ambitions so don’t brush them off. Inspiration may come wrapped in emotion or as a creative idea. Take the essence and run with it. Your thinking can dive deep and your mindset shift from breezy to business. It’s a good time to stop get beneath the surface and whether it’s a long-overdue chat or a no-nonsense planning discussion, don’t shy away.
Cancer 22 June – 23 July
If a long-held dream feels more like a burden than a blessing, it might be time to gently let it go, but in the most dignified of ways. Releasing what no longer inspires will help you make space for fresh ideas to blossom. Conversationalist Mercury also primes a fine time connect with old friends, distant relatives or even past colleagues. By sharpening up your listening skills, there is lots to gain.
Leo 24 July – 23 August
Your intuition may be on high alert, but don’t let wishful thinking lead you down a glittery but uncertain path. If someone’s making big promises romantically or professionally, pause before diving in. Give it a few days and trust actions over words. This is also a good time to get serious about your daily routines. Streamlining your schedule and focusing on practical tasks can be surprisingly satisfying.
Virgo 24 August – 23 September
Waiting on someone to make a decision about a home or family matter? You may need to gently nudge them toward commitment, but don’t be surprised if their answers feel vague. Ask the right questions and keep your expectations realistic. Even so, as your guide planet Mercury moves into Capricorn later this brings a sharper focus and a green light for new passions. Your sense of fun can also be heightened.
Libra 24 September – 23 October
If you’ve been feeling uncertain, it’s time to sharpen your focus and get crystal clear on what you truly want, as dreamy hopes just won’t cut it. There is a big focus now on your home and family strands and whether it’s decluttering, planning or sprucing up your personal space, even small efforts can bring peace of mind. Channel your inner organiser and this will give you the base from which to be more creative.
Scorpio 24 October – 22 November
It may be tempting to spend on glittery distractions or promises that shimmer but don’t deliver. Keep your wits about you, Scorpio, as this is not the time for impulse buys or get-rich-quick schemes. Yet, as Mercury marches into Capricorn you’ll switch to a no-nonsense mindset and laser like focus. Use this grounded energy to map out your next ambitious steps as planning now sets you up for results later on.
Sagittarius 23 November – 21 December
This is the perfect time to work out a solid financial plan for the year ahead. Combine integrity with strategy and you’ll start the year on a confident and empowered note. The planets are conspiring in a very positive way to help you to make tangible progress in this area in 2026, but this will require precision as much as the panache and vision that generally come so readily to you.
Capricorn 22 December – 20 January
Logic may feel have felt a little illusive, but in contrast your intuition has been heightened. Don’t overthink anything, instead tune in, for if there is a hunch you keep brushing away, it may be worth listening carefully to. And as zesty Mercury enters your sign, your mental clarity can soon return. This is your cue to set ambitious yet realistic goals for the year ahead. Create a vision, make a list, appraise it, then power forwards.
Aquarius 21 January – 19 February
It can be easy to get swept up in other people’s visions, especially if they sound too good to be true. But for the few weeks or so, you may find yourself unusually attuned to atmospheres and other people’s emotional undercurrents, and this can prove draining around certain people. This may require you to be choosy about who you spend time with. Let their sincerity be your guide.
Pisces 20 February – 20 March
As Mercury-Neptune blend it can be all too easy to drift into wishful thinking. Avoid promising more than you can deliver or falling for other’s fantasies. And yet, despite this, for three weeks you can expand your network and join circles that inspire and uplift you. Whether through friends, colleagues or kindred spirits, meaningful connections can spark fresh ideas and new adventures.
