Aries — 21 March to 19 April

Mercury meets Jupiter in your sphere of home and foundations — what you name about where you stand, your roots, the ground you speak from, wants to expand today, perhaps past its true size. Say it, but weigh it. The Moon joins Venus in your sphere of joy and self-expression and trines Saturn in your own sign, lending your creativity a steadying spine. But Venus opposes Pluto in your sphere of community, exact: what you make meets the question of whose approval you're really making it for. Mercury's shadow is underway; what surfaces now returns at the retrograde from the 29th. The beginning you seeded in communication four days ago is being tested now, not tended.

The question to sit with. What are you expressing for its own truth, and what for the room's reaction?

Intuitive counsel. What rises from genuine interior truth holds under today's pressure. What was made for effect will not.

The question to sit with. Are you securing your ground, or arranging it to be admired?

GEMINI — 21 May to 20 June

But Venus opposes Pluto in your sphere of meaning and distance, exact: what you express meets the deeper question of what it's all for. Mercury's shadow is underway; what you say now returns at the retrograde from the 29th. The fresh start you seeded in your own sign four days ago is being tested now, not tended.

The question to sit with. Are you speaking your truth, or performing a version that sounds larger than it is?

Intuitive counsel. The true thing survives being said plainly. The inflated thing needs the embellishment to stand.

The question to sit with. Is this who you are, or who you'd like to be seen as?

The question to sit with. Are you stepping into the light to be true, or to be watched?
