Sagittarius Daily Forecast

Mercury's backtracking until the 29th, so your mind will feel foggy. Take this as your cue to slow down. Avoid major projects and give yourself space to recharge. Sleep, dream and let your imagination wander. Art, music or starting a journal could unlock clarity logic can't. You're rebuilding your energy, not losing it. When you pause, inspiration will sneak in!

While having Mercury retrograde back out of Sagittarius today means he hasn't been able to complete his transit all the way through, he will be back next month to do that. Three days before the Sun is due to return to Sagittarius to begin your birthday month and new solar year, Mercury will leave you with everything needed to keep your head in the game and to think on your feet, while at the same time taking the brakes off. Having Mercury in retrograde motion has clipped Mars' wings and stopped the warrior planet of the cosmos from not just fully firing up your passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit, but on progressing things forward. That all changes today.

While Mercury will leave Sagittarius today, because he is leaving by retrograding back out rather than by moving forward, you won't have to wait another year for the planet of communication to return. By the end of the month Mercury will be in direct motion and on his way back and until then, with Pluto not only in your communication sector but getting back to full strength, the communication lines are in safe hands.

Your close friends show their appreciation, and you're heartened by the people you encounter, seemingly being in demand. Enjoy the attention, but don’t let it go to your head and expect more of the same without showing some genuine enthusiasm for your lover or friendships if you want your popularity to last.

For the first time since Uranus retrograded back into your work sector 11 days ago, he is experiencing some pushback. In the heart of the working week, Mercury not only retrogrades back into a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart today but straight into opposition. Mercury is the first, but he won't be the last and while this is the first test when it comes to how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off since Uranus' return, with a chance to look at this through his smart and practical filter.

While the Sun, in his final days in an intuitive and imaginative part of your chart is separating from a friendly aspect to lucky Jupiter, in his first full week in retrograde motion in your financial sector, there are planets standing by to take his place. By retrograding back into an intuitive and imaginative part of your chart today this not only puts Mercury in harmony, but with both in retrograde motion, his smart and practical approach and hindsight will give you a better read on the doors now open to the past, second chances and untapped financial potential.

With so much going on, it’s important you're careful not to exhaust yourself by taking on too many commitments. Having a full diary of appointments can lead to unnecessary stress levels. Think twice before agreeing to anything that's contrary to your best interests. Otherwise, you'll become unnecessarily drained.
