Prepare yourselves because Mercury is in Retrograde once again, this time in the sign of Cancer. Happening today, June 29, the Mercury Retrograde in Cancer will make you feel more sensitive, emotional, and irritable around your loved ones and coworkers, so be careful about lashing out at others or making snarky comments. Remember to always take a moment to calm down before saying anything mean! After all, with Mercury being the planet of communication, our words will most likely be overpowered by our strong emotions, which may lead to undesirable outcomes. Be wary of miscommunications, indecisions, and impatience at this time.
More importantly, keep an eye on your gadgets; Mercury Retrograde has an annoying tendency to make appliances and electronic devices break down when you least expect them to.
Here’s what this Mercury Retrograde in Cancer has in store for each sign this week:
Aries (March 21 to April 19)
In order to progress toward bigger ambitions, you need to be brave enough to step out of your comfort zone. It’s not easy to make such risky decisions, but don’t let your emotions cloud your judgment. Look at the bigger picture and make a plan on how to discover the world in new, better ways. You’ll learn so much about yourself in the process!
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
There is absolutely no need to pressure yourself to have the best of everything. You need to change this mindset and be grateful for all the good things you currently have, even the ones that feel insignificant. True self-worth is not defined by what you possess. So be honest with yourself and let your actions stay aligned with your principles.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
You need to take time to rest and do nothing. You’ve been working so hard on your goals, and right now you need to do something that has nothing to do with them for the sake of your physical, mental, and emotional health. During this break, you can reflect on whether or not you truly are on the path you want to be. Stay true to yourself, listen to your heart, and always follow where your instincts are taking you.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
It’s scary to make changes, but staying with what’s familiar won’t ever lead to growth. You have to be braver in choosing paths that are different from what you’re used to. This way, you can attract more opportunities and welcome more positive energies into your life! Invest in yourself right now and remember to always keep your home and work life balanced.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Running away from your problems won’t ever solve anything, and you must confront these issues head-on. Don’t prolong your decisions! Listen to your gut and place your faith in the timing of the universe. It may not look like it now, but you will get to where you need to be eventually. So don’t be afraid to sacrifice small pleasures so you can invest in long-term success.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
You can’t seem to shake the past, and it’s only increasing the size of the emotional baggage you carry. You need to let go of repetitive self-sabotaging behaviors that keep you stuck in place. Change is good and necessary, so be brave in facing the unknown! Trust the process. If you look closely, you see that there are doors opening for you. So do what you can to get your foot out that door for the sake of long-term stability.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Things have not gone according to your plan, and it sucks because you were so close to the finish line. Don’t give up now, though; these setbacks are only temporary.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
This is your sign to act first, think later. You are ready to take on the world by storm and make your dreams come true, but take care not to be carried away by material wealth and fame. Always balance out your impulses with rational thinking. Seize the opportunities that surround you, and make sure that the road you’re on will lead you to joy and fulfillment!
