A partner or close companion may accompany you on a short trip. Be careful how you travel and what you eat while you are away. You may be on the verge of a big sale or purchase. Be sure to weigh all options carefully. Make time for spiritual reflection as a break from all your monetary concern. You're always up to meaningful things but today you'll get going on something totally new. Support from coworkers and supervisors makes stunning results possible. Keep an eye on your management of time, energy and money. Don't get carried away by accolades as there are greater goals waiting to be won.

Screech! The week starts with a reality check as the Sun bangs into Mercury retrograde in your idealistic ninth house. A travel hiccup, rescheduled meeting, or a change in educational plans might have you rethinking long-term goals. Studying something new? Information could contradict what you believed, forcing you to adapt. If you’ve been meaning to revisit an application (to school, a visa, a certification), do so—but don’t submit just yet. Instead, refine the details. Big visions are great, but this retrograde is asking: Do you have the right foundation?
