Whether you decide to dust off a cherished talent or polish the trophies of your past successes, don’t shy away from communing with your innermost emotions. If a flicker of stage fright or a creative block surfaces, use this time to explore the origin stories of these barriers. If a caregiver, a teacher, or your community ever shamed you for your theatrical impulses, reclaim your radiance — and your place in the director’s seat of your life. On August 28th, when Mercury stations direct, it’s showtime for whatever you’ve been rehearsing in the wings. The heart takes center stage When Mercury travels through this regal fire sign, the channels open between the head and the heart. Dramatic status updates, passionate confessions, and humble brags tend to dominate our communications. But amid this flurry of hot takes and star-eyed emojis, you also have an opportunity to articulate your authentic emotions. Whether your self-acceptance tank is brimming or running on fumes, the coming weeks will remind you that your slant on the world matters. Your beautiful mind deserves an audience — even if it’s simply the neighborhood cats. If you worry you’re revealing too much, lean in to the fear and risk oversharing anyway. Dare to post your spiciest opinions, hype yourself up in the group chat, and indulge in a little showboating. The time is ripe for creative expression too, so let sparks fly in poetic social media captions, artful selfies, or thoughtful thank-you notes to the people who’ve been cheering you on. Amping up your genuine self-affirmations will nip any attention-baiting or compliment-fishing in the bud. Appoint yourself the president of your personal fan club, and you’ll have more energy than ever to strut your most sparkly thoughts. Your horoscopes are meant to be read as inspiration.

Even your chores are now infused with extra sparkle, especially when you gamify your tasks.

[Capricorn glyph] []Capricorn & Capricorn rising It’s not selfish to put yourself first in your exchanges — especially over the coming weeks, while Mercury is back in Leo. Assert your authority in your joint efforts and mergers by polishing the trophies you’ve earned for what you bring to the table.
