In the afternoon, Mercury in Aquarius trines Jupiter retrograde in Gemini, sparking curiosity! This creates a fun, social vibe that encourages you to step out of your comfort zone and into the world. Expect your mind to buzz with ideas and a desire for engaging conversations. You'll gain wisdom, but amid this exciting mental whirlwind, it's essential to find quiet moments to process the information you receive. Thoughts can quickly become overwhelming, so stay grounded. How can you strike a balance between outward exploration and inner awareness?
Right before noon, Venus enters Aries and begins a powerful journey, which includes a retrograde! Venus retrogrades only every two years, making this an imperative checkpoint for relationships and resources. In Aries, Venus encourages you to be unapologetically honest and spontaneous. However, with Venus already in her pre-retrograde shadow phase, this period is more about reflection than action. Let your heart guide you, but don't rush into significant decisions. Prepare for dramatic breakups, turmoil, and re-evaluation of what you truly want.
