Aries:
There’s no better way to sum up this week than JUST WOW. It’s intense, starting with Mercury Retrograde starting early Thursday morning. This is all about your love and creative life, so expect old romantic prospects and projects to pop back into your life during the next three weeks. The usual tech and backup caveats also apply of course. Friday brings a mega-intense Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in your house of friends and goals. Something major is culminating for you right now, Aries – know how to end unhealthy things properly so you can have an incredibly positive new beginning.
Taurus:
Whoa, Taurus, this is a week to end all weeks. With Mercury Retrograde beginning early Thursday morning, prepare some intense backtracking and clearing out of dusty corners. This retrograde hits your home zone, so between now and late August, it’s all about the RE’S at home: revamping, redesigning, and reorganizing your domestic sphere and your closest family relationships. Major intensity might come to your professional life on Friday, thanks to the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius. You’re moving up to the next-level professionally, and there could be some attendant drama.
Gemini:
This is a jam-packed week in your stars, Gemini, so get ready the cosmic energy to make some waves. First your ruler Mercury stations retrograde on Thursday morning, slowing down and messing around with your communication strategy through late August. Back up your gadgets and double-check before you hit send on any messages, because they’re likely to be ridden with more than mere typos. Clarify people’s responses before arguing, as well. Friday brings an intense Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in your house of travel and adventure. Road trips and mind-expansion are on your mind this weekend. You’re ready to absorb wisdom and you want to do it away from home.
Cancer:
This week will may go down in history as one of the most intense of 2018, so prep yourself in advance if you can, Cancer. The upshot is that even though it’s still eclipse season, your sign isn’t directly in the crosshairs anymore. But with Mercury stationing retrograde early Thursday morning in your money zone, you’re surely feeling some stress. Between now and late August your finances are at the top of your mind and remaining vigilant is necessary when it comes to spending. Friday’s powerful Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius hits your house of sex, debt and intimacy, so one or all of those topics is on the agenda.
Leo:
Get it together as early as possible on Monday, Leo, because the stars are a bit of a mess this week. The Sun just moved into your sign, giving you some cover from the chaos, but with Mercury Retrograde starting in your stars on Thursday morning, you’re likely to feel a bit off. If there’s any opportunity for you to be away on holiday, do it between now and late August – and choose a calming, soothing location for your birthday celebration. Friday night’s intense Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius can bring some major drama to your one-to-one relationships.
Virgo:
This is far from an average week in your stars, Virgo, so take some deep breaths before you dive into the chaos. You’ll feel it before anyone else, but Mercury Retrograde officially arrives on Thursday morning, bringing the usual caveats and cautions – back up your data, check your messages multiple times before sending, and give yourself enough time for delays on the road and in the air. At the same time, this particular retrograde hits your house of dreams and subconscious thoughts, so you might feel a bit messy in your own mind. Friday’s eclipse is super powerful as it wakes up your house of work and health.
Libra:
This is a seriously intense week, Libra, so ready yourself for major fireworks. Luckily the Sun just moved into Leo, which will provide a bit of a buffer for what’s coming next: Mercury Retrograde starts early Thursday morning and lasts for the next three weeks. This can bring some confusion and consternation to your social life, so make sure channels of communication are clear with friends and colleagues. Friday is the ultimate of ultimates – a Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in your house of romance and creativity. The drama is deep, but honestly you’re kind of in the mood for it right now.
Scorpio:
This week is not even CLOSE to kidding around, Scorpio. First Mercury Retrograde begins early Thursday morning, setting you up for three weeks of potential professional mayhem. With the communication planet careening backwards through your house of career, make sure that all your communication with colleagues is crystal clear – and try to avoid launching any major projects before late August or early September. Friday brings the second of three summer eclipses, this one in your domestic zone. Family and home are major themes this weekend, and the good news is that old wounds can be healed now.
Sagittarius:
This week is straight-up insanity in the cosmos, Sagi, but as the Wild Child of the stars, you might just love every minute of the edge-of-your-seat energy. Mercury Retrograde begins early on Thursday morning, potentially throwing a wrench or five into your travel plans between now and late August. Delays will happen if they can, so just make sure to check all your itineraries carefully and way in advance. Friday brings a deeply emotional Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in your house of talking, thinking and texting – be careful with all three, as speaking too fast can land you in hot water.
Capricorn:
It’s gonna be one of those weeks, Capricorn, because Mercury Retrograde is catching up with eclipse season. The summer of chaos theme intensifies as the planet of communication stations on Thursday morning, initiating three weeks of deep yet halting transformation. This can also bring back old lovers, as Mercury will move backwards through your house of sex. On Friday, a super intense Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse lands in your house of money. This is the culmination of six months of progress toward financial goals. You have one more chance to tweak your 2018 agenda: you may not get rich quick – but you will get rich eventually.
Aquarius:
This is one of the most significant weeks in your stars in quite a while, Aquarius – perhaps for the entire year. That’s because Mars is already in a steady retrograde in your stars, with an eclipse about to land in your sign, things are heating up fast and furious. First, however, Mercury Retrograde begins early on Thursday morning, setting you up for three weeks of potential relationship mayhem. Mind your ego as much as humanly possible. Your own personal Lunar Eclipse arrives on Friday, but you’ll feel it for days in advance. This is the culmination of everything that’s happened since your last birthday. Be good to yourself.
Pisces:
This is not a week you’ll soon forget, Pisces, and your sensitive soul could be rattled by all the intensity. First Mercury Retrograde begins early on Thursday morning (however you probably felt it creeping up as early as last week). This portends three weeks of potential miscommunication and chaos at work. The solution: go on holiday and leave all the stress behind. Friday brings a mega-powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in your house of dreams and subconscious thoughts. Your already potent psychic power is about to get a whole lot more potent! You need extra self-care right now, so take all the time you need for yourself.
