Mercury is currently retrograde as you know. It began with the first shadow, days after America voted. In your own life, the flipping around – probably because of computer issues, extreme weather, human error, travel rescheduling – is well and truly here. Mercury flips in Sagittarius on November 25th, 2024, so prepare for an about-face next week, to add to the current backwards traction. If you want the 2026 Mercury Retrograde dates, just hit Search.

Aries – You are almost on your way to a fantastic new destination out of town or across the region thanks to Jupiter in Gemini. Despite the rethinking of some details between now and Christmas, you are right to be optimistic about this trip between now and May 2025. Think of 2024 as joining the dots to a new home or unforgettable vacation – perhaps an export, gap year, overseas student or translation opportunity. You have the pen and are putting some dots together this week. This may be New South Wales to Tasmania or Paris to London. Foreign parts and foreigners are another matter. Have Plan B, C and D as Mercury is retrograde.

Taurus – It has been 12 long years since Jupiter, the planet of solutions and opportunities, was in your finance and property zone in Gemini. This is where we also find your business, company, taxation, insurance, legacy and collectables too. By rights, you would be enjoying a great early Christmas present by now, but you have until the middle of 2025 to use the cycle.
With this Sagittarius transit, too, it pulls in second and third parties. The likely face in all this is your former, current or potential partner. Yet, we also associate this cycle with family members and friends who feel like family to you. Remain optimistic about the outcome and think liberating yourself in the second half of 2026. That is a good time to set yourself free from what/who ties you down. The current stop-start, rescheduling and delay with the money, property or valuables will end when Mercury corrects his motion.

Gemini – You are now firmly on the road to rescheduling a new date, marital conference, engagement, separation, divorce and the like. Mercury, your ruler, continues retrograde in Sagittarius preparing for a big flip next week. Allow for communication, information or transportation issues between you both – at least until January 2025. But when your ruler Mercury is finally out of Retroshadow, you’ll both have a lot to talk about or sign with some finality.
I daresay this is about money or property given Pluto is about to leave that zone of your chart. Maybe the possessions. Now, where you both stand in any fixed, final and firm way is in flux for a while, but an unforgettable sign-off decision is coming. If you do intend to do anything like buy a yacht with your ex, think about chatting now and committing later.

Cancer – It may take until January, but you are now on the road to new decisions which will make a difference to your daily routine, lifestyle, wellbeing and workload in 2025. This Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius is a bugger, as they say, but eventually the stop-start and changes will themselves stop. A great many Cancerians will be in new jobs or courses next year, and the chopping and changing now is really a pointer to January when the North Node leaves your professional, academic and vocation zone. If not then, towards the middle of the year when new roles, goals or people – come in. This current flux and future big shift are now very true of not only work, but also unpaid work and housework.
It is also applicable to your body, mind and spirit which are connected in astrology. Your health may also be stop-start or rescheduled now as Mercury continues to slide around. Try to get as much in writing as you can, in any case, even though the story will change by January 2025. Until then, keep batting this back and forth or rewriting the schedule.

Leo – This is the Rowling cycle. The legacy she is leaving to her children and to younger people, in general, is a useful guide to what is happening now with your godchildren, your own offspring, a young people’s organisation and so on. You may know your zodiac sign is associated with being Queen or King to a younger court. The way to this, is all stop-start for weeks as the door opens and shuts until January 2025 and the key is not the right fit. This may be about dating a lover who has children from a previous relationship. It may be about another baby or a major phase in your son’s education or daughter’s career. Perhaps you have a large-scale involvement with younger faces.
Allow for Mercury Retrograde. Have Plan B and C on this transit. Mercury flips next week. As well as babies, infants, schoolchildren, teenagers and Generation Z, this transit also rules the bedroom and courtship. Rescheduling, rethinking, retracting the words – it’s a ‘re, re, re’ cycle.

Virgo – We have the Sun circling your zone of home, accommodation, hometown, family and homeland now. Your ruling planet Mercury is also there now, retrograde. So, this week is about the paperwork, meetings, telephone calls or emails – backwards. Yet, Mercury is also appearing to move backwards and forwards in your horoscope for longer than just the next few days, so you must allow for delays and changes with the plans or timing until January 2025.
Get everything in writing and read the fine print. It may be as simple as a family member’s scheduling or as complex as your local council (or government). Naturally, tenants, flatmates and real estate agents also qualify. Thus, reversing or reshaping the initial decisions is quite normal. Maybe more than once. Doing this circular runaround with builders may be par for the course now or with your landlord. I will be amazed if your family plans for Christmas are the same, later on.

Libra – Your interest in publishing, multimedia, education, communication (everything from stand-up comedy to debating) and ‘the word’ is ready for re-re-re-reactivation. Actually, you have been on this path since it went Retrograde Shadow. But it may not be until next week that you realise recycling and rehearsing is the key to the idea, course, project or technology.
What happens this week is rather like hearing your flight called at an airport. You are almost ready to take off on a new journey but don’t be surprised if there are delays or gate changes. Libra, you are going to see sideways and backwards progress until January 2025. From that point forward, though, you can look forward to a way out or a way forward.

Scorpio – New avenues for making or saving a great deal more through business, taxation, shares, your property or fundraising interests are here thanks to Jupiter in Gemini. The delays and rescheduling are down to Mercury Retrograde. Even if you are sent up a cul-de-sac or get stuck in ‘traffic’ before Christmas, you will still unwrap something very special next year. A year-end bonus is one example. A new job or project with a raise, redundancy package or family gift is another. Shares coming in? Retirement packaging going out? Property sale or purchase?
Whatever comes your way now, even if it’s just a small fortune saved, is the gift that goes on giving. Mercury Retrograde suggests a complicated path to the actual unwrapping, but this will really help you rehearse, rethink and review. In fact, it’s a time for making deals and organising bargains if you remember that a jumble sale in November, December is Mercury Retrograde. Shares change hands. And how.

Sagittarius – It has been quite a long time since appearance, image or profile mattered this much. Nothing is final yet, and there will be a delay or change before Christmas. Yet from that point forward, you should focus on 2025 as a setting for the final version (by title, reputation or look) of you, you, you. What a difference a quick face or name message makes. If only it was quick…ahem.
No matter what obstacles you have experienced so far on this Mercury Retrograde transit, treat this as a rehearsal. We live in the internet age and soundbites, Twitter photographs and strong ‘one shot’ associations are what we are made of. Do allow for computer or telephone issues or, perhaps, printing changes or delays. Maybe something bigger. This is in flux.

Capricorn – This Mercury Retrograde with all its rescheduling, rewrites and rethinking takes place in your Twelfth House, so the flux is behind the scenes or within. A good example would be counselling for alcoholism at A.A. or dream coaching. Hypnosis, religion, Tarot, mediumship, meditation or yoga and therapy are all Twelfth House. We associate this cycle with your interior – your spirit or soul – but also with what you cover up from other people. This takes us into signed confidentiality agreements or your subconscious. Be it Jung or a psychiatrist, allow for the re-re factor.
Just be aware that, in all cases, this goes backwards and forwards until January 2025. The great thing is, it’s so good for beta testing or rehearsal. Christmas is coming, though, and as religion is also ruled by this transit, there may be cancellations or rescheduling with the carols, for example. One church may close so you end up at another one and it ends up being a completely different religious experience. Have Plan B and C at this time of year, no matter if you are a Druid or just having counselling.

Aquarius – There is so much going on with your circle, community or network. Do think about the people power within that crucial group or circle as you have seen it previewed in 2023 and 2024 so far, yet it will not be until November 19th, 2024, that you realise how potent this is. Your Sun is in this chart zone in your birth horoscope and Pluto is moving in there for 20 years.
Aquarius, this is the first of several chances to use your well-known potential as the ‘feeder’ or supplier of any network as you have what it takes to understand group psychology. And, yet, for all the Aquarius people riffing on Sagittarius cycles in their solar Eleventh House – it’s backwards. It’s stuck. This is a slow start which began rolling backwards and forwards earlier in November and the real power handshakes will not really start seriously until January 2025. Yet, the signs are there this week.

Pisces – If you are wondering about the timing with what is an obvious career rescheduling, business snag, unpaid work fork in the road or skewed university pathway, wonder no more. You will be aware that even if this takes time. When Mercury is out of Retroshadow in January 2025, you will be on your way. Even if all you basically want to do is solve a problem, you will be amazed at how the knot is untangled without too much effort from you if you treat this as a rehearsal and not the big finish. Mercury hits his first snag next week.
This is, of course, the time of year when there are reshuffles in your workplace, industry, profession, business or academic world. That may provide you with your logical answer. People take early holidays, or they take time off work because of COVID. It is also a time of new appointments and promotions which can meander all over the place and sometimes be cancelled. If you are far along the trail already, you can look forward to the role or project that makes January a sign-off and maybe a sign-on. Get as much as you can in writing now and then you can lock things down after Christmas and go over and over the words.
