Your stars today

TUESDAY MARCH 5, 2019

ARIES March 21-April 20 **

Mercury starts reversing through your solitude zone. So you’ll feel like slowing down and hibernating. But that will just make communication more confusing and tasks more tedious.

TAURUS April 21-May 21 **

With Mercury turning retro, aim to be very flexible over the next three weeks. Others won’t behave in rational ways that you can clearly fathom. So strive to keep the lines of communication open.

GEMINI May 22-June 21 **

Over the next three weeks, retrograde Mercury confuses communication – especially with work colleagues. But, if you are clear and concise, then you can still get your message across loud and clear.

CANCER June 22-July 23 **

Be careful how you pass on information over the next three weeks, as Mercury is retrograde. If you are vague, then you’ll be misunderstood. Clever Crabs will adopt a concise and cautious approach.

LEO July 24-Aug 23 ***

If you can, then avoid signing important contracts over the next few weeks, as Mercury reverses through your joint finances and ‘money-from-others’ zone. Instead, be patient and wait.

VIRGO Aug 24-Sep 23 **

Expect conversation overload as Mercury starts reversing through your relationship zone. So make sure you choose your words wisely. Otherwise you’ll just upset family, friends and/or colleagues.

LIBRA Sep 24-Oct 23 ***

With Mercury going retrograde, avoid signing contracts and buying big ticket items – like a computer or a car – until after March 28. Plus get any health problems checked as soon as possible.

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov 22 ***

A relationship with a friend or acquaintance is about to go through a tricky patch, as Mercury confuses communication and heightens sensitivities. A dash of diplomacy will see you through.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21 **

Prepare for some difficult domestic dramas and frustrating family fiascos, as Mercury reverses through your home zone. So avoid bringing up controversial subjects until a more suitable time.

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 20 **

With Mercury going retro in your social networking zone, double-check all posts, tweets and emails before you press send. It will be very easy to send the wrong message to the wrong person!

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19 **

Mercury starts reversing through your money zone. So strive to be more educated about your financial situation. If you don’t understand all the facts and figures, then find someone who does.

PISCES Feb 20-March 20 **

With Mercury reversing through your sign, things won’t go according to plan. So improvisation and patience are needed over the next few weeks, until Mercury goes direct again on May 28.

YOUR DAY

Mercury shifts into retrograde mode until March 28.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

You are creative and charming but can also be rather temperamental. 2019 is the year to stretch yourself in adventurous new directions, personally and professionally.
