On July 23rd, Mercury ends its retrograde period and resumes its direct motion, bringing an end to several weeks of revisions, delays, and misunderstandings.
Mercury is transiting through Cancer and from this position it begins to form a sextile with Venus in Virgo, an aspect that enhances communication, personal relationships, and agreements.
This change occurs while the Barbault Basket remains active, the planetary configuration that reached its peak on July 19 and represents a gradual transformation process, both on an individual and collective level.
The combination of both transits invites you to resume paused projects, clarify pending situations, and move forward with greater confidence. Major changes may not be immediately visible, but this can be a good time to take the first steps.
Three actions to harness this energy
- Resume a pending conversation with a family member, friend, or co-worker that you had postponed.
- Review and send that email, proposal, or request that you left pending over the last few weeks.
- Schedule a meeting or make a decision about a project that needed more information before proceeding.
Aries
Today, Aries awakes with a special spark in your chest, one of those feelings that can't be explained but are deeply felt. Jupiter is opening a path for you that you might not have expected to see so soon, and the key is not to hesitate when the signal appears. Something related to money or a project you've been contemplating for months can take a positive turn today, as long as you truly commit and don’t sit around waiting for things to happen on their own. In love, there’s an important conversation that, if had honestly today, could make a big difference. The people you care about — whether near or far — need to know how you feel. Don't keep so much to yourself. The waxing moon is urging you to take action, not just contemplate. Resolve what needs resolving, as the day is on your side.

Tauro, today the universe speaks to you of patience rewarded. You have been working hard for some time, laying brick upon brick without yet seeing the complete building, and this Thursday, something begins to take shape.

In terms of finances, a piece of news or an opportunity may come that gives you real relief, so stay alert and keep your mind open. In family matters, the warmth of this summer reminds you of loved ones, and today is a good day to make that call you have been postponing. The heart knows whom it misses.

You have good ideas— you've always had them— and today is the day for one of them to stop being just an idea and become something concrete. Speak, communicate, make your move. Your natural gift with words is a powerful tool: use it to close something you left unfinished or to open a door that piques your curiosity. In love, there may be pleasant surprises if you allow yourself to go with the flow and don’t overanalyze everything. Not everything needs an explanation.

Virgo
Virgo, you who always focus on the details, today Jupiter invites you to lift your gaze and see the bigger picture. There is something significant being built in your life that you cannot fully recognize because you’re too close. Take a step back, breathe, and acknowledge what you have achieved with your own hands and effort. Economically, today there may be signs that things are improving, even if it’s slowly. Don’t underestimate small advancements; they are the ones that last. Regarding your health, pay attention to your nervous system: overthinking comes at a cost. Find a moment of silence today, even if it’s brief. In relationships, someone close needs you to listen without judgment. Being the steadfast shoulder you always are is also a form of love.

Libra, today the scales tip in your favor, and the universe gives you a little push in the right direction. You have been contemplating an important decision for days, perhaps weeks, going back and forth without reaching a conclusion. Today's waxing moon tells you that enough analysis is enough: it’s time to commit to a direction and move forward. Jupiter amplifies your natural charm, so any negotiation, difficult conversation, or agreement you need to finalize should be done today, as your words will flow seamlessly. In love, the harmony you seek may be closer than you think, but it requires you to also contribute without always waiting for the other person to take the first step. Your family needs you present today, not perfect, just present.
Lucky number: 28 · Compatibility: Gemini · Advice: Making decisions is also an act of love towards yourself.
Scorpio
Scorpio, today you feel that something is stirring beneath the surface, like when the sea changes before one even realizes it. Your intuition, so sharp, is sending you a clear message: a transformation is underway and it is positive, even if it only manifests in small details for now. Trust what you perceive. In terms of finances, an opportunity may arise from the most unexpected source, from an old connection or from a project you thought was dormant. Don’t let pride or distrust make you miss it. In love, the intensity you carry inside can be a gift if you channel it well today. Lower your guard a bit, as not everyone comes to harm you.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius, Jupiter is your planet, and today it’s working overtime for you. You can feel that expansive energy throughout your body, that desire to move, to explore, to make things bigger than they were yesterday. Today is especially favorable for anything related to new horizons: a new project, a conversation with someone who lives far away, a plan that involves change or movement. In love, your charisma is at its peak, and that attracts. If you have a partner, surprise them with something unexpected; if you're single, the universe may bring someone interesting your way today. Financially, an opportunity may arise today, so don't shut yourself off. Your optimism is your best tool: don’t lose it.
Lucky number: 55 · Compatibility: Aries · Advice: New horizons don't wait: move towards them.

Capricorn, you know better than anyone what it means to work hard without seeing immediate results, to keep going when others give up, to build patiently. Today the universe acknowledges that. Jupiter brings you signs that the accumulated effort is about to pay off, and the waxing moon tells you that it is not a time to ease up but to give that final push. In terms of finances, something you have been working on for months may show significant progress today. Pay attention to the details; that's where the key lies. In family matters, summer brings memories of loved ones, and today is a good day to extend a bridge, to send that message you have been postponing. In health, take care of your bones and back: your body also needs rest after so much strain.
Lucky number: 62 · Compatibility: Taurus · Advice: Perseverance is not stubbornness; it is faith in what you are building.
Aquarium
Aquarius, today your mind soars farther than usual, and that’s saying a lot. Jupiter activates your sector of communities, friendships, and collective dreams, reminding you that you are not alone on this path. There are people around you, near and far, who believe in you and what you have to offer. Today is a good day to reconnect with someone you haven't seen in a while, to reignite a project that involves more than one person, or to ask for help without feeling diminished. Financially, an idea that seems outlandish might be more viable than you think: don’t dismiss it without exploring it. In love, you need someone who truly understands you, not just goes along with you. Seek deep conversations today. Your heart will thank you.
Lucky number: 38 · Compatibility: Sagittarius · Advice: Your wildest ideas often turn out to be the ones that make a difference.
Pisces
Pisces, today the universe whispers softly in your ear, in that way only you know how to listen. There is a blessing on the way that still doesn't have a visible form, but you can feel it, and that is enough of a sign to keep moving forward. Jupiter is illuminating your spiritual and inner world today, inviting you to trust in what cannot be seen but is felt: in that faith that has carried you through more than once. Economically, it’s not a day for major movements, but rather to receive with gratitude what comes your way, no matter how small it may seem. In love, your sensitivity is a magnet today, and someone might surprise you with a gesture that touches your soul. With family, the warmth of summer brings nostalgia, but also gratitude for those who are present. Light a candle, give thanks, and let the good things come in.
