Aries
This season you’re looking for ways to improve as the Sun gleams in your sixth house of wellness and organization. Spend time doing a thorough summer cleaning, getting rid of items you haven’t reached for in a while, or letting go of friends who are no longer providing a balanced friendship. Virgo season is the ideal time to implement healthy changes to your routine, like setting aside time to cook yourself a delicious meal or taking your mental health seriously.

Taurus
A blast from the past is right around the corner as back-spinning Mercury throws people from the past onto your path.

That being said, this season you’re feeling a bit more adventurous and creative which could lead you to discovering new hobbies and passions.

As you welcome the Sun into your fourth house of domesticity, you’re striving for a more peaceful, low-key end to your summer.

While you’re on your break from being social, take the time to focus on yourself and practice some self-care.

With Mercury, the ruler of communication, spinning in reverse through your communicative third house, your ability to connect with others may be on the fritz this season.

In the meantime, triple check your emails and texts to ensure your messages aren’t lost to interpretation.

If you're feeling a bit unsure, find security in your support system.

Virgo
Happy Birthday Virgo! You’re feeling inspired and ready for anything during the Sun’s stay in your sign. However, your ruling planet, Mercury, is in retrograde creating a slight hitch in your plans. It may be best to stay out of the spotlight until Mercury stations direct. In the meantime, choose your words carefully as they have a higher chance of being misconstrued. Keep your interactions in person, especially when you’re trying to convey important messages.

The Sun is chilling in your twelfth house of rest and relaxation, giving you the perfect opportunity to go off the grid. With your season right around the corner, wrap up the things you’ve been working on so you can thoroughly enjoy your birthday. If needed, delegate tasks to others. It’s okay to ask for help, especially if you’ve been a little stressed out recently. Make sure you implement moments of relaxation into your schedule by listening to a fun podcast, meditating before you go to bed, or doing yoga in the morning.

Scorpio
You’ve been working non-stop recently, Scorpio, and your efforts have definitely paid off! Now you can let go a little and start relaxing. In fact, you’ll get even more done outside of the office than you will by physically being at work. Go out to industry events and network with others. This may lead to new opportunities you haven’t considered before. Wait until Mercury rights itself before you work on any huge group projects, as Mercury in retrograde can make it extra difficult to collaborate.

While Virgo season is typically quite an adventurous time for you, Mercury retrograde is putting a halt on travel and spontaneity.

Spend time reflecting and thoroughly planning your next moves before you take action. Think outside the box and disregard the limitations society tries to impose on you.

With the Sun at its furthest point from you and Mercury in retrograde, you’re going to be pretty out of balance this Virgo season.

Before you take action and do anything drastic, think things through and really consider all of your options.
