You might think that remaining quiet is a sensible strategy today, but you won’t likely avoid conflict by relying on defensive maneuvers. It’s tempting to believe that you’ll keep your feelings to yourself, but unexpressed emotions have a way of hijacking your day. It’s no fun to lose your temper, so get your concerns out into the open instead of naively assuming that things will improve on their own.

Communicating with others seems so easy today that you may think that you’re missing something. Unfortunately, you are probably glossing over a critical fact or conveniently forgetting what you were told. Thankfully, you can choose to focus extra attention on the details of your interactions. The simple act of concentrating on the present moment, instead of letting your mind wander, can help prevent an unnecessary misunderstanding.

Your ruling planet Mercury is wired by electric Uranus today, exciting your nervous system and lifting your spirits. Unconventional ideas can be distracting because they aren’t necessarily practical, and you may not be interested in applying your creativity now because you don’t want to slow down your unrestrained thinking process. Although facing the limitations of your current circumstances might not sound great at first, putting your feet back on the ground will make you feel better in the long run.

You would like to talk about your feelings now that the Moon is back in your sign, even if you’re also feeling a bit shy. Nevertheless, you won’t likely go out of your way to bring up an issue that could provoke someone to withdraw from you. However, once you understand that your fear of abandonment can precipitate exactly what you’re trying to avoid, it will be easier to acknowledge the intense emotions that are being revealed at this time.

Don’t trust others who promise you the world because they may not be telling you the whole story now that the Moon is in your secretive 12th house. It might be wiser for you to take care of business as if you were on your own today, even if someone offers to help you. Nevertheless, it’s safe to listen to those who are supportive of your cause, even if they don’t have easy answers. Ultimately, having faith in yourself is your best strategy.

Your key planet Mercury connects with brilliant Uranus today, sparking your imagination with unconventional thoughts and intense desires. However, you might play your hand tentatively because you don’t want to upset your friends or destabilize an existing relationship. Still, it may be impossible to avoid a confrontation if someone oversteps your boundaries. Do whatever you must do in order to protect your territory as long as you don’t intentionally hurt anyone else in the process.

Your need to nurture others at work can make you feel indispensable today with the Moon’s presence in your 10th House of Public Responsibility. However, meddling in other people’s affairs can also create a real mess if you go too far. Don’t fall into the trap of believing that no one can get along without your assistance now. It’s healthier to wait until someone asks you for help before jumping in and taking over.

You are tenaciously holding on to a fascinating idea today, even if it isn’t very practical. You may not have time now to seriously develop your plan, yet you still can derive pleasure from just thinking about the possibilities. Keep in mind that you could turn a rather simple desire into such a big deal that the original thought is lost. Give yourself permission to dream, but don’t lose perspective on what’s real and what’s not.

Mischievous Mercury can trick you into thinking that your new idea is a brilliant one, but you should probably keep your thoughts to yourself today until you decide how much to share with others. You could spoil your chances for success by telling someone about your plan before the details are actually in place. Although you often can get away with developing your strategy on the fly, being more cautious now works in your favor.

You are usually more self-restrained than others in your group, but today all bets are off. It’s not that your energy is out of control now; it’s just that you are aligned with a higher purpose, adding intensity to your words and actions. Thankfully, your friends and co-workers are eager to listen to you unfold your strategy, so tell them exactly what you’re thinking, even if you aren’t sure how all the pieces will ultimately fit together.

You aren’t very comfortable when so many images and ideas are swirling around in your brain that you don’t know what to do next. Mercury’s alignment with your key planet Uranus can amuse you with all the possibilities, but you still grow dizzy watching the mental fireworks. Instead of passively dreaming about your future, concentrate your attention on a single goal and maintain your focus until it is within reach.

Although you may appear quietly confident today, you might not have that much to say yet. You’re riding a wave of creativity with the Moon visiting your 5th House of Self-Expression, but the real action is taking place within your mind and out of sight from everyone’s watchful gaze. Don’t feel obliged to prove your brilliance to anyone now; just gently express what’s most important to you once you’re comfortable with the results of your inner process.
