\u201cCircle back\u201d is the working title for this week as Mercury retrograde asks you to do just that. Issues (or drama) from last week are up for debate, as resolve crumbles and we begin to wonder, \u201cwas that\u00a0really\u00a0<\/i>a good idea?\u201d It could be cause for fireworks (or more likely, waterworks) especially on Tuesday and Wednesday when the moon and Mars make everyone a little more sensitive than usual.<\/p>\n

The good news? After from Thursday onwards, things look a little smoother as la luna inspires a more outgoing mood. The discontent from Monday\/Tuesday should evolve beyond the initial \u201couch\u201d to to \u201copportunity.\u201d The mood, reminiscent of the old saying, \u201cnecessity is the mother of invention\u201d. Get crafty and look outside your comfort zone to discover the solution to misunderstandings.<\/p>\n

Hot tip: I always recommend you read your rising sign for the most resonant advice. If you don\u2019t know it, you can work it out by casting your chart here. Want to learn more?

Aries and Aries rising<\/h5>\n

As tempting as it may be to rush out of the gates on a new idea, now is not the time to press go. In fact, it\u2019s kind of the opposite. Getting worked up while you\u2019re stuck in traffic won\u2019t get you to work any faster. It\u2019s an analogy that will come in handy this week. Resign yourself to the glacial pace and save your energy for something you can change\u2026 no sooner than Friday<\/p>\n

Taurus and Taurus rising<\/h5>\n

If you feel like you\u2019re struggling to get out of second gear this week, you have every right to blame\u00a0Mercury retrograde. As it slowly lurches back to reassess the loose ends of last week, moving fast will be near impossible. Build in extra time and aim to under commit to avoid disappointing anyone.<\/p>\n

Gemini and Gemini rising<\/h5>\n

With your ruling planer shuffling backwards you\u2019d be forgiven for feeling a little less than your usually sparkly self this week. Use the gentler pace to lean in to self-care and treat yourself to some quiet nights in. Even Geminis need downtime<\/p>\n

Cancer and cancer rising<\/h5>\n

Don\u2019t be surprised if you find yourself living up to your astrological motif (read: crabby) as the week gets off to a touchy start. Rest assured that the irritation you feel early on the week is temporary and not indicative of this entire mercury retrograde.\u00a0When tempers flare, slow down and prioritise movement.<\/p>\n

Leo and Leo rising<\/h5>\n

Reevaluating the state of play – especially at work – is your only mission this week. While the powers that be will be moving slower than usual (or possibly not at all) use the time to focus on your own priorities and figure out what genuinely matters for you.\u00a0No sudden movements, just give yourself time for some soul searching.<\/p>\n

Virgo and Virgo rising<\/h5>\n

Take your foot off the gas this week and let your to-do list slide. As eclipse season continues to shake things up, the retrograde challenges you to take your hands off the wheel and let things play out. No big decisions, just let yourself explore possibilities as they arise. Visibility may not be great right now so best to avoid any giant leaps.<\/p>\n

Libra and Libra rising<\/h5>\n

A spicy start to the week could leave you feeling affronted, particularly with someone at work. As a decision or move comes unstuck, maintaining a sense of composure amidst the big shifts will be your biggest challenge – but not an impossible task. Ride it out and have faith things are not done changing just yet.<\/p>\n

Scorpio and Scorpio rising<\/h5>\n

Rehashing an issue from last week could feel draining, or downright irritating especially before Wednesday. Tempting as it is to retreat into your shell, this is something that needs to be hashed out. Take it slow and aim for steadiness and a calm exploration of the underlying issue rather than a fast and fiery resolution.<\/p>\n

Sagittarius and Sagittarius rising<\/h5>\n

With eclipse season shaking up the snow-dome that is your life, the reflex to make sudden movements when drama descends will be big. But now is not a great time to cut and run. Try to sit and wait to see where the cards land. This week they\u2019re still very much up in the air.<\/p>\n

Capricorn and Capricorn rising<\/h5>\n

Hearts will be worn firmly on sleeves this week, especially on Monday and Tuesday. Remember no amount of pragmatism will ease a situation when hypersensitivity is involved. If you do put your foot in it, apologise and then give the person space to lick their wounds and trust \u00a0that things will feel considerably less raw by the weekend.<\/p>\n

Aquarius and Aquarius rising<\/h5>\n

Turning the tables to reframe an ongoing issue – potentially around home and family – could have you ready to sign your life away. But before you\u2019re swept away in the excitement, give yourself time to fully investigate all your options. Fools rush in, and right now rushing would require brute force. So bide your time and let things unfold gradually.<\/p>\n

Pisces and Pisces rising<\/h5>\n

There\u2019s some he said\/she said feels this week with Mercury retrograde and eclipse season setting the scene for all the crossed wires. Reread emails, reconfirm reservation and pay extra for tracking on your DePops. This is a time when things will get lost, forgotten or misunderstood. Slow and steady and you\u2019ll make it out with minimal fuss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29212,"featured_media":34972,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[260,35],"yoast_head":"\nHoroscopes April 24: Mercury Retrograde Asks You To Hit Reverse<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Things may come to a head on Tuesday, but there is good news a couple of days later, says astrologer Emma Vidgen.
