Aries

Mercury retrograde is disrupting your schedule in a major way, Aries, and it's stressing you out. Today's especially annoying if you're traveling or at school. Things chill out later, and you're able to get some work done.

Taurus

The Moon is in fellow Earth sign Capricorn for much of today, sending you good vibes. You're alert during the first part of the day; you could probably skip the coffee. Tension arrives this afternoon, but things chill out this evening.

Gemini

Mercury retrograde is not doing you any favors, especially not this afternoon, when fights flare up in your relationships. Wait to talk things out later today, if you can. The energy will be much more grounded this evening.

Cancer

Relationship vibes are stressful early this morning, but you're a drama magnet, Cancer, so what can you expect? Harsh words are exchanged this afternoon, but the vibe is easier this evening.

Leo

Are you feeling valued, Leo? Are you having enough fun? Reflect on these themes today. Some fights concerning these issues could also pop up. The energy flows easier this evening.

Virgo

The Moon is in fellow Earth sign Capricorn for part of today, sending you good energy; however, some arguments will come your way this afternoon, likely about something you thought you already settled.

Libra

The day begins with the Moon, in Capricorn, activating a private, domestic sector of your chart. You're thinking a lot about security today. Communication issues abound, and you're annoyed that people are making things up, or not hearing you out.

Scorpio

Mercury is the planet of communication, and because it's retrograde, talking things out hasn't been easy. It's especially stressful today—people are feeling broke and insecure.

Sagittarius

You're thinking about money today—thanks to the Moon in cash-conscious Capricorn. Stress comes your way, and you're concerned about your reputation or your career, but things will work out!

Capricorn

The Moon is in your sign for much of today, Capricorn! Surprises come your way this morning, and later today, you'll find that communicating will totally exhaust you. The vibe this evening is way easier.

Aquarius

Make time to be alone and catch up on sleep today, Aquarius. Mercury retrograde will bring up old wounds, but will also remind you of how far you have come. Your psychic abilities are strong today.

Pisces

Some genius ideas will come to you this morning. Arguments arrive in the afternoon. Mercury, the planet of communication, is retrograde, so misunderstandings are in the air. Things ease up later on.
