You may be feeling disconnected from your own past and your own memories right now. Taking a short journey to connect with relatives or spiritual beliefs will revive you. This may be a useful moment to enroll in a training or a course in higher education. Avoid risky monetary decisions. Finances might feel sparse right now but financial gain is headed your way. You're a busy bee today, occupied with extra responsibilities, travel and communication. New contacts may be established while loved ones find delight in a creative aspect of your personality. Your past may figure in your discussions today so chose your words with care. <em>Good words are worth much and cost little; bad words are worth a penny and cost too much. </em>

You’re not about to get lost in the weeds, detail-oriented Virgo. Not after your ruler, clever Mercury, darts into Taurus and your expansive ninth house on Saturday, widening your viewfinder until May 17. Now you can easily regain perspective by gazing at the big picture. Start researching trips (and maybe book one) that will broaden your cultural awareness or offer an exciting learning experience. Your curiosity could inspire weekend explorations like a day trip to scour antique shops, sample the fare at farm stands or savor a long hike in a bucolic setting. Sunday brings permission to slow down—and we’re betting that’s music to your ears. The moon is nestled in your cozy fourth house and harmonizing with intuitive Neptune in your mysterious eighth, inviting you to step away from the fray and tune in to subtle nuances. Your ability to read between the lines will allow you to pick up on casual innuendos and discordant body language. Stick to activities that keep you feeling centered, like tidying your space or bonding with someone close to you. You’ll learn more from quiet reflection today than you will from critical analysis.
