With Mars moving back into your communication zone, your words have power and so do your ideas. It’s time to channel your energy into learning, teaching or launching an online project that could bring big rewards later. You might want to invest in a course, sharpen your skills or turn a passion into profit. But rest assured, sassy moves now can lead to exciting opportunities later.

As talk and thought Mercury merges with Neptune in Aries, it may be just as well to trust your own thinking rather than listen to others. They might mean well, but there’s potential for mixed messages. And although this is nothing personal, it could involve you in a situation that you’d be best to avoid. Want to get someone’s attention? Use your imagination and dress to impress.

The focus shifts to a more secluded sector, making the coming four weeks ideal for reflection and for eliminating emotional baggage. If you find yourself in a soulful mood, then it may be because cosmic forces are bringing feelings to the surface where they can be more easily dealt with and released. Letting go of the past means you’ll be ready to explore a brand new future.

With Mercury moving back into Aries, it’s time to reconnect, so dive into your social scene, catch up with friends and revive projects left on the backburner. Mars back in Leo brings fresh opportunities, but don’t rush in this week, as things and people may not be all they seem. As the Sun enters a private zone, it marks a period of rest. Relax now and prepare for a new phase.

Your ruler starts the month in a fine link with Venus, and yet with them both retrograde, you may find yourself going over old ground, particularly as far as work or where worldly strands are involved. A great angle between lucky Jupiter in your sign and the Sun, will be helpful however, and can see you initially optimistic. But although snags can ease from the 7th when Mercury goes direct, they may linger as Saturn hits both the North Node and Venus, and it may not be possible to achieve all your goals as you first hoped. All this can see a lot of reflection towards the months end, but potentially some frustration too.
