Thee last Mercury Retrograde of the year is here and in the sign of Sagittarius. During this time, the impulse to speak or act without thinking will be much stronger and, as one might expect, will lead to consequences. Try your best to control your reactions especially toward misunderstandings. Handle these situations with grace, a level head, and compassion.
Jupiter will also be in Retrograde this week and in the sign of Cancer. Jupiter retrograding often means that we’ll see less return on the time and energy we invest. During this planetary transit in Cancer, you have to make sure you’re not overpromising and doing more than what you’re capable of so that you can keep protecting your energy and avoid hurting those near and dear to you.
Here’s what these Retrogrades have in store for each sign this week:
Aries (March 21 to April 19)
Your head is brimming with ideas that you can’t just keep contained—let them out and open yourself up to the possibilities that are out there! Stay committed to living your best life, and all the good tidings will follow. With positivity, confidence, and passion, you’ll reach your dreams in no time.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
You are scared that there’s no one you can trust right now, and you’re trying to do everything on your own as a result. Don’t drive people away out of fear of losing control over situations. You need to be open to moving past your comfort zone and making long-term commitments. Remember that it’s okay to make mistakes now and then—after all, that’s how you learn and grow.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
You may be called to reevaluate certain plans you have for your future, and you shouldn’t stop yourself from doing so. Think of what’s working now and what isn’t. Don’t be swayed by your emotions while you reassess. Ask for help if you need to, to get other people’s perspectives! Use your logic and cut through the noise to gain clarity.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
You are craving spontaneity and excitement in your life, and yet fear change. You need to overcome this and actively seek ways to add more passion to your everyday routine! Stop questioning yourself just because things don’t seem clear to you right now. Change your attitude about struggles and setbacks, take responsibility for yourself, and ask for help when you need it.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Remember that in every decision you make, there will be consequences—both good and bad. So make sure that before you do anything, you’ve properly thought things through and you remain as objective and impartial as possible. Stay level-headed! An abundance of opportunities will come to you. Invest in yourself and your beliefs.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
You have made steady progress toward your goals through hard work and persistence. You need to carve out time for yourself to relax and unwind! After all, constant toiling won’t exactly lead you anywhere if you’re close to burning out. Anticipate the challenges in your path ahead. Remind yourself what you’re doing all this for.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Take this time for yourself to pursue your creative dreams. Remember that it’s important to nourish yourself and fill your life with joy instead of just working yourself down to the bone. Place your trust in other people to ease your burdens and motivate you to keep going. You’ll see that you’re much stronger when you work with others!
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Change will happen all around you, but you shouldn’t let your fear overpower you to the point of making careless decisions. Ground yourself, find your center, and keep a level head. Ride the waves instead of resisting them. Opportunities will come as long as you persist through the bumps on the road. Remember that you can always come home to yourself whenever you start feeling overwhelmed by everything happening all around you!
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Don’t run away from conflict because you’re only prolonging it. Face them head-on so that you can move forward and toward your goals. Learn to choose your battles and where it’s best to invest your time and energy. Be proud of how far you’ve come! Stay committed to the journey, persevere through the challenges, and know that no one can stop you from achieving success!
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Life may feel off balance to you right now, and you’re beginning to second-guess yourself and where you are in life. Don’t forget that you can always ask for help when you need it. Don’t be so overwhelmed by responsibilities! Prioritize activities that actually give you joy. Relax, unwind, and do nothing if you can! Achieving your goals will take some time, so you need to be patient and let everything fall into place.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Through hard work and perseverance, you’ve managed to achieve your goals! You will now be faced with new responsibilities—most of which may feel too heavy to carry on your own—so don’t be afraid to ask for help from trusted people! You’re so rich in friendships, and you shouldn’t doubt that they genuinely care for you. Celebrate the emotional wholeness you feel and spread that love all around you!
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
When something ends, it just means that something else is about to begin. Don’t let negative and unhealthy habits hold you back from moving forward in life! The opportunities are out there if you just open your heart and mind to them. Huge changes will come with them, too, so be prepared to transform yourself in some way to adapt to them.
