We’re back in retrograde season. Mercury goes retrograde on the 9th in Sagittarius. This year’s third Mercury retrograde finds us thinking out of the box and fumbling to find the right words. Things get heated on the 12th when Mercury collides with Mars. Watch out for someone going off about something they don’t even have the facts about.

Elsewhere in the sky, on the 11th, Jupiter stations retrograde in Cancer. Since June, our growth has been supercharged, and from here things slow down. This growing phase will continue after the new year, but for now, our task is to review and integrate. Overall, it’s a slow and reflective week that may come with some miscommunications.

(Horoscopes follow for each sign. If you know your rising sign, reading for that sign too will provide further insight.)

The 2 Zodiac Signs About to Hit a Major Turning Point Before the New Year

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

This week brings a change up to your travel or study plans. Though the passion is there, you’re struggling to come up with the cash to make your itinerary work. At the same time, after months of huge growth on the homefront, you’re starting to feel a bit claustrophobic in your own space. It’s a good week to research fresh experiences that won’t break the bank.

This week’s mantra: “Land.”

Cheeky illustration of a young non-binary person petting a bull.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

You may come to regret some deals you made this week, Taurus. A friend who promised to pay you back isn’t coming through with the cash. Your partner needs a lot of support. But who’s supporting you? Your network has grown a lot through your many acts of kindness and it’s time to call in some favors of your own.

This week’s mantra: “Honor.”

Cheeky illustration of identical twins with long dark hair and a statement earrings back-to-back, smirking at each other.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

A close relationship is put to the test as Mercury stations retrograde in your partnership sector on the 9th. If you’ve been deep in a honeymoon period, this week might bring your first clash over something simple like what to eat for dinner or something major like your values. The next few weeks will be about seeing if you can accept your differences and stay on the same page.

This week’s mantra: “Resolve.”

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

What you’re doing this week isn’t glamorous, but it’s very necessary. As Mercury stations retrograde in your daily routine sector, you’re being forced to evaluate which habits are working for you and which are working against you. Though a lot of this year has felt like two steps forward followed by three steps back, take a moment to recognize how much you’ve really grown.

This week's mantra: “Steps.”

Cheeky illustration of a woman of Asian-descent wearing a sheer coral top with her hair half-up in pigtail puns, the rest down. She is hugging a lion, who is smirking.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)

When an ex-fling slides into your DMs this week, you might be tempted to rekindle the connection. There’s part of you that’s feeling restless and bored with your personal life, but dipping into the archives isn’t always as fun as it seems. Before diving headfirst into the drama, take a step back and consider the ways you can cultivate more pleasure in your day to day.

This week’s mantra: “Caution.”

Cheeky illustration with a light blue background of a woman wearing a coral shirt coyly poking out from behind her hands.

Virgo (August 23 - September 23)

This week you’re breaking ground on a home renovation or digging up your personal archives. So much of your growth in the past year has been in the public sphere but now you’re feeling the call to turn inward. This shift might feel uncomfortable, especially if you’re afraid of losing momentum in your career. Trust that the inner work is necessary for further external breakthroughs.

This week’s mantra: “Inside.”

Libra (September 23 - October 21)

You have a ton on your plate this week, and with Mercury stationing retrograde in your daily routines sector on the 9th, you’re going to be juggling a lot of miscommunications and reschedules. Frustrations with close friends, coworkers and even your barista are inevitable this week, but try to take every delay and redirect as an opportunity rather than a hassle. Notice the synchronicities.

This Week's Mantra: "Route."

Scorpio (October 22 - November 21)

You’re deep in the process of cultivating self-love and confidence, and this process requires some lifestyle upgrades! That being said, just because you’re “worth it” doesn’t mean you have to put yourself into credit card debt. With Mercury stationing retrograde in your money sector, it’s time to pause on the purchases and shop around for some deals.

This week’s mantra: “Sale.”

Cheeky illustration of a Black woman with purple hair on an orange background. She's in a wearing jean jacket, with a quiver strapped across her back and arrows sticking out.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)

You’re feeling feisty this week and, more than usual, are speaking your mind. This year has tested your ability to negotiate and collaborate, and right now, you’re feeling like it’s your turn to take the lead and get what you want. Be careful not to over-promise though because with Mercury stationing retrograde in your sign on the 9th, you might have to later go back on your word.

This week’s mantra: “Forward.”

A cheeky image of a woman of color with dark hair holding a pink goat by the horns. The background is pink and her shirt is darker pink.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)

If there’s one thing that’s true this week, it’s that you have absolutely zero desire to do any work. Whether you’re logged off on vacation or daydreaming through your company’s slow season, you’re in need of a change in routine. If you’re somehow still plowing through work, give yourself permission to rest.

This week’s mantra: “Pause.”

Cheeky image of a Black woman with blue hair on a light blue background. She's holding blue water in her palms, which is bubbling up and taking shape as her hair.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

You’re determined to make something happen this week, but you’re also realizing that your plan is only as good as the team you have to support you. With Mercury stationing retrograde in your friends and community sector, you’re understanding how easy it is for someone else to mess up your big opportunity. Though you may be let down by someone you thought you could trust, you may also be lifted up by someone unexpected.

This week’s mantra: “Gather.”

Cheeky illustration of a gender-fluid white person with short-cropped orange hair. They're wearing a light blue halter top as two bright pink koi fish circle their head.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

This week tests your ability to lead under pressure. With Mercury stationing retrograde in your public image sector on the 9th, you might find yourself in a power struggle with your boss or feeling blocked about next steps. If you’re finding yourself tongue tied, remember to pause and deliver what you have to say at your own pace. You don’t have to hurry because of someone else’s timeline.

This week’s mantra: “Tempo.”
