You may have an opportunity to travel, perhaps with or to see a younger sibling or grandparent. Diplomacy in communication is critical right now. Use all available means to stay in touch -- email, text, phone and social media. Others appreciate your creative spirit so share art, song, photos or dance with loved ones. Today you understand that wealth is not the key to happiness. Tend to business but also enjoy time spent with loved ones. Soon new investments will invigorate low-key finances. Professionally, your skills are in demand and you demonstrate your proficiency in all fields. All worries will be taken care of if you keep your patience level high.

Indulge in what excites you this Saturday, Scorpio, and X anything “non-obligatory” off your calendar. Mercury in Pisces lighting up your fifth house of creativity and pleasure, and its trine to Mars retrograde in your ninth house of exploration could lead you on an impromptu adventure. If you’ve been feeling stuck, a shift in scenery—maybe to visit a well-traveled entrepreneurial friend—could reignite your inspiration. Follow the fun. If your life has felt like it was in slow-mo (and certain things have been a no-go), that’ll all start to change on Sunday as eager-beaver Mars wraps up a stultifying retrograde that began December 6, ending up in your ninth house of travel, adventure and expansion. If you started developing big plans that went nowhere, you can now resume them and expect better results while Mars revs its engines (sans retrograde) in Cancer until April 18. This course correction could inspire you to book an overseas trip, sign up for a workshop or launch your own business.
