It can even be something you heard about awhile ago, which you thought might never happen. Reconnect with old friends who share your zest for life. Make time for hobbies and activities you enjoy.

When you meditate, try to really feel how it will be in that new reality. Also, write out your goals and ask yourself honestly if your thoughts and actions align with the life you want.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) — Mercury turns retrograde, and that’s a good thing! Make more time for meditation. Reconnect with your spiritual side in a deeper way. That can mean walks in nature, attending yoga or reading inspirational books. Find the ways you feel “tuned in” and make those things part of your routine. You’ll also have emotional breakthroughs that help you bond with a partner in a more intimate way. If you’ve been wanting to go back to school, it’s a great time to look into that!
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) – It’s a powerful relationship month. It’s vital to trust your partner. You need to be able to reveal all of yourself in order for intimacy to proceed. This month’s full moon and Mercury retrograde ask you to be bold, and to delve deep to release inner shame. Find ways to build confidence in clearly and gently expressing conflict or voicing differences. You’ll be amazed at how bonding that can be. Widen your social circle by connecting with friends, both old and new.
Aries (March 21 – April 19) — This month’s full moon asks you to take care of your health. You can get overly busy and forget about wholesome meals and enough rest! Mercury retrograde can cause quite a bit of misunderstandings and confusion in relationships. Try to take deep breaths before responding because you’ll be easily triggered, and probably feel like a jerk later! At the same time, issues need to be cleared out in partnerships right now in so things can deepen. Work will be awesome, with maybe an exciting promotion!
Taurus (April 20 – May 20) — Relationships can go to a new profound level when you blend spirituality into the mix. Perhaps you can meditate or practice yoga together. Being in nature can also attune your hearts and souls in a different way. If single, nurture your own spirit in these ways and you’ll be surprised who is magnetized into your world! With Mercury retrograde, ponder health practices that have fallen away and get started again. Try organic foods, daily quiet time and other forms of self-care.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20) — The full moon can make you feel unsettled, but remember to draw upon inner strength. When you feel scattered, anxious, or in your head, practice forms of grounding. You can go outside and walk on the grass with bare feet. Lay belly down on the floor or the ground to sooth your nervous system and to feel more present. Practice yoga or deep breathing. Take a bath with sea salt. Once your mind is clear and steady, your intuition will supply answers. Because of Mercury retrograde you might also rekindle with an old flame — or find a renewed spark with your current partner!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22) — Don’t be shy to fully express yourself in your partnership. You’ll be amazed how much closer you get as you reveal your full authentic self! If single, living bravely from your heart can attract a powerful new bond! You can also do quite a bit of healing about childhood or family issues during this Mercury retrograde. Try journal writing, dream work, forgiveness meditations or even trauma therapy if issues are that deep. You’ll be filled with a deep sense of empowerment.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) — You can have amazing financial breakthroughs this month! Follow your instincts and see where they lead. Since Mercury is retrograde, you can remember great ideas that lead to major prosperity. It’s the right time! You can also open new doors to intimacy and sexuality. You’ll have a deep sense of sacredness within your body. It’s a good time to redecorate your home, or at least make sure you’re surrounded by beauty!
