Click to read the blog.]( Dot your i’s and cross your t’s As Mercury moves through Virgo from July 25th to September 26th, our thinking gets precise. The planet of analysis and communication is more than proficient in this practical sign; it’s a virtuoso of color-coded spreadsheets, lists for making even more lists, and impeccable text message grammar. In this placement, Mercury is an expert editor and troubleshooter, naturally attuned to the flaw in every diamond and the gaffe in every awkward interaction. Beneath this sharp attention to detail is a profound idealism. Virgo is continually making the adjustments and course corrections necessary to bring a project, idea, or practice to its most elevated state. The messenger planet is dignified in this mutable earth sign, meaning it has enhanced access to its gifts here. At its best, Mercury in Virgo understands that perfection is a constantly moving target — but with a little diligence and strategy, we all might be able to get closer than we previously imagined. Keep your erasers at the ready when Mercury stations retrograde It’s not all tidy schedules and neat to-do lists, though. When Mercury stations retrograde on August 4th, it will be wise to reassess what isn’t working in your systems and plans. Slowing down and choosing your words carefully will help you avoid bloopers. Mercury will slide backward into showboating Leo on August 14th, encouraging you to reclaim your confidence and your creative gifts — even if you miss a line or two. By the time the messenger stations direct on August 28th, you’ll have a refreshed perspective on the ideas you want to broadcast to the world — and how to revise any recent mistakes. Sharpen your pencils as Mercury winds back to its domicile on September 8th, when you’ll be able to articulate your thoughts with panache. Your horoscopes are meant to be read as inspiration. If you know both your rising sign and Sun sign, please read both horoscopes. You’ll know which one resonates for you. Take what works and leave the rest.

We really appreciate it — and you. The following horoscopes were written by Grace Mungovan. [Aries glyph] []Aries & Aries rising As Mercury enters Virgo, color-coordinate your Post-its, marvel at your spreadsheets, sharpen your pencils, and research which pens have the smoothest-flowing ink. Fussing over the practical details of your daily grind isn’t an exercise in futile overanalysis; it’s a valuable way to fine-tune how you work. Zeroing in on what’s inefficient in your schedules, habits, and protocols counts as perfectionism only if you get stuck there. Learning new methods and upgrading your productivity toolbox can add order, precision, and beauty to your world. [Taurus glyph] []Taurus & Taurus rising As Mercury enters Virgo, dust off your paint set, sort your sewing basket, and approach all your creative projects with more discernment. Now is the time to focus less on flights of fancy and more on the micro-strategies that bring your ideas more precisely to fruition. Whether that means researching a particular cross-stitch method or shifting a comma around is up to you and your muses — the magic is in the details. Relentlessly refining your pleasure palate doesn’t necessarily make you a perfectionist, but it does make you creatively unstoppable. [Gemini glyph] []Gemini & Gemini rising As Mercury enters Virgo, cleanse your home with attentive rituals and a dash of practical magic. Whether that means pruning your medicinal herb garden or scrubbing the floors with blessed water is up to your inner witch — however you do it, decluttering your space will create more mental clarity. It’s also a good time to disentangle your familial narratives. Distinguishing your own thoughts from the ancestral stories you’ve inherited is essential for making prudent decisions. Clip any errant emotional threads, and enjoy the tidiness of an organized mind — and pantry. [Cancer glyph] []Cancer & Cancer rising As Mercury enters Virgo, radically simplify the information you consume. In the era of 24/7 breaking news alerts and limitless cat videos, it’s easy to get swamped by pixels. But too much data can clog your thinking and overcomplicate your life. Filter junk emails out of your inbox, set time limits on draining social apps, and abbreviate your daily gossip sessions with friends and neighbors. Strip away the hustle and bustle, and discover the mental clarity beneath the clutter. [Leo glyph] []Leo & Leo rising As Mercury enters Virgo, sort through your trinkets and talismans. Which belongings serve a purpose — material, intellectual, or spiritual — and which just take up space? Spotting the difference creates more room in your life for what’s both resonant and functional. Use your inner radar to assess what’s past its expiration date in your universe. Shedding the old doesn’t have to be wasteful. When you repurpose well-loved treasures — or gift them to a friend or thrift store — you let the world continue to appreciate the magic you have to offer. [Virgo glyph] []Virgo & Virgo rising As Mercury enters Virgo, direct the laser of your attention to yourself. When you get precise about what makes you tick in the present and who you aspire to be in the future, you sharpen the tools needed to construct your ideal self. But remember: Your identity is supposed to be fluid, messy, and perpetually in progress. So for every new strategy you acquire, appreciate what you’ve already accomplished. You’re always doing the best you can with what you’ve got. Put down the spreadsheets and celebrate. [Libra glyph] []Libra & Libra rising As Mercury enters Virgo, purify your restful sanctuaries and internal world. Whether you have cobwebs gathering on your ceiling or in your psyche, use the tools at your disposal to cleanse them. Try ritually spritzing your pillows with rose-scented oil or journaling about your inner critics to remove any mental clutter blocking your serenity. But resist overcomplicating your techniques or mistaking dust bunnies for monsters under the bed. Learning how to put your mind at ease and fully recalibrate it is a worthy pursuit in its own right. [Scorpio glyph] []Scorpio & Scorpio rising As Mercury enters Virgo, revise your list of favorite conversation topics, and clarify the collective issues that inspire you. Banter isn’t just a fun pastime; it’s a method for refining your thoughts. Over the coming weeks, sharpen your big ideas by sharing them with your crew. The hive mind can help you infuse your repartee with more wit and strategize your social justice aims with greater precision. But as always, be discerning about the feedback you accept. Not every criticism is accurate, but it’s all productive fodder for your intellect. [Sagittarius glyph] []Sagittarius & Sagittarius rising As Mercury enters Virgo, release your mental grip on your 10-year plan, and focus on the nuts and bolts of your current projects. Before your offerings are ready for the public, they require careful inspection. It’s more glamorous to imagine the gleaming final product, already complete, but legacies are ultimately built with practical, strategic daily actions. Limit any distractions that steer you away from your calling, and direct your attention to the next small segment of your work. Your calculated micro-efforts will add up to an awe-inspiring whole. [Capricorn glyph] []Capricorn & Capricorn rising As Mercury enters Virgo, prepare to annotate. Whether you’re embarking on a research project, fine-tuning your travel itineraries, or editing a round of mystery school applications, turn the laser beam of your attention to specifics rather than grand hypotheses or wispy daydreams. The best-laid plans succeed when you carefully consider the little details. But beware getting stuck in perfectionism. You can polish your theories and ideas as much as you like, but the messy work of putting them into practice is where the magic happens. Make peace with the process. [Aquarius glyph] []Aquarius & Aquarius rising As Mercury enters Virgo, precise communication becomes your best friend in all your collaborations and exchanges. Whether you’re drafting grant applications or hammering out the details of a business alliance, double-check the fine print. Knowledge is power, and the more you clarify what you want to give and receive, the easier it will be to strategize your moves. Resist the temptation to sign on a bottom line that you don’t fully understand or believe in. Your success depends on specificity. [Pisces glyph] []Pisces & Pisces rising As Mercury enters Virgo, flex the superpower of your attentiveness in your 1:1s. Your closest bonds, whether romantic or platonic, require consistent care in order to thrive. To understand how to sustain your connections, notice what other people want and need. Whether that means bringing home your beloved’s favorite lilacs or asking your best friend about a significant meeting, demonstrate your affection through your deep awareness of your nearest and dearest. Invest in learning and admiring subtle facets of your companions, and your unions will flourish.
