Thursday, JUNE 26

Mercury forms a sextile with Uranus this morning and enters Leo this afternoon. We gravitate to alternative approaches, new ideas, and scientific thinking. Intuition is strong, and insights are quick and exciting.

The Mercury-Uranus sextile opens our minds and boosts our willingness to entertain new methods and ideas. We’re just detached enough from a matter that we can gain perspective, and our ideas, conversations, and musings are unique, forward-looking, and ahead of the times.

Original, creative ideas and theories come naturally. We can take advantage of this by solving problems in innovative and new ways. Varying our usual routine can be especially rewarding, and ideas for doing so abound.

Mercury transits the sign of Leo from today until September 2nd.

With Mercury in Leo in the weeks ahead, our thinking is confident and grand, and clearly defined goals motivate us. We are expressive, convincing, decisive, and persuasive. We want our voices and input heard.

It’s not a time when we’re content with letting others make all the moves or decisions–we must be involved. We take the lead, manage, direct, and create while Mercury is in Leo.

For maximum absorption, we need to relate to information or create stories about it. During this cycle, we should be mindful of being too inflexible or too proud to change course. It will be a longer transit of the sign than usual due to an upcoming retrograde cycle.

The Sun forms a sextile with Mars today, boosting our confidence and sense of vitality. We aim to take the initiative and feel we can accomplish a lot. Our sense of rhythm and timing is good. Stress eases as we feel confident about our abilities and our judgment. We are more able to assert ourselves without offending others.

We’re also ready to take on a challenge, and we’re competitive in a natural, unforced way. With this transit in effect, we can feel energized, particularly when it comes to tying up loose ends or addressing financial matters.

It can be a time of resourcefulness, when we respond to problems or challenges with spirited and enthusiastic confidence.
