Being an effective communicator means being a good listener. A younger sibling or other relative may have something significant to share with you now. Now is a good time to update your profile picture on social media. Get ready for a short journey that promises you new opportunities. Now is an ideal time for introspection. It will help you focus on your personal strength. Hold back if you are in doubt. Re-evaluation does not need to be a miserable prospect. Contemplation will leave you feeling stronger and more prepared. Your chance of success right now will be measured by your belief in yourself.

Come again? Today, messenger Mercury turns retrograde in Leo and your third house of communication which could conjure up mixed messages left and right. Choose every word with care for the next three weeks to avoid meltdowns and misconceptions. If you're going to share anything publicly, make sure you've banished every glimmer of doubt surrounding the news. Alternatively, take advantage of clever Mercury's backspin and do a deep-dive into your hobbies: take a pottery workshop or keep crafting that memoir. Hanging out with old friends will also lift your spirits and who knows? You may even revive a friendship from ages ago.
