In the meantime, read on for what Mercury in Sagittarius has in store for your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Horoscope Sign Aries.

You’re in the mood to take risks, but with this energy, it’s easy to undermine important details,Aries. With Mercury igniting your adventurous and philosophical ninth house, you’re craving big experiences and looking for new perspectives.You may book a spontaneous road trip or enroll in a weekend workshop requiring you to venture outside your comfort zone. If you’ve ever wanted to try something completely out of character, now’s the time. Just remember to double and triple-check the return dates on those flights!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Horoscope Sign Taurus.

Be mindful of your overly blunt approach,Taurus. With Mercury in Sagittarius, activating your eighth house of taboos and joint ventures, you’re likely feeling the urge to deepen your connection with someone or something.

This could mean tackling those big conversations that have been lingering in the back of your mind or diving into financial matters with a bold attitude. Just be cautious about being a little too honest — it’s easy to go full “tell it like it is,” but remember, not everyone’s ready for that kind of truth bomb.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Horoscope Sign Gemini.

Conversations with significant others prove to be more enlightening than you realize,Gemini. With your celestial ruler, Mercury, in Sagittarius — and your seventh house of partnerships — expect conversations with partners or close friends to take on a deeper meaning.You may find yourself unexpectedly giving heartfelt advice, suddenly having big-picture relationship talks or getting philosophical over brunch. Just be careful not to promise more than you can realistically commit to — Mercury in Sagittarius loves big ideas, but the follow-through often gets lost in the excitement.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Horoscope Sign Cancer.

Create more room for freedom in your day-to-day routine,Cancer. Mercury in Sagittarius is activating your sixth house of rituals, health and work habits, so expect a shake-up in your daily grind!

You may adopt a new wellness trend, rearrange your workspace or tackle a huge to-do list with new-found enthusiasm. Just remember that Mercury in Sagittarius isn’t known for patience — don’t jump between so many tasks that you burn out before you get anything done.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Horoscope Sign Leo.

Express yourself and put your larger-than-life personality on display,Leo. Activating your fifth house of creativity, romance and fun, Mercury in Sagittarius can explain why you’re feeling extra spontaneous these days. Whether signing up for dance classes or doing karaoke in a dive bar, you’re inspired to do something wildly out of your comfort zone.

Romance gets a dose of excitement, and you’re ready to put yourself out there in a big way. Just be wary of going overboard with extravagant plans — it’s easy to bite off more than you can chew but remember, it’s the fun and adventure you’re after, not the need to impress others.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Horoscope Sign Virgo.

If you’re feeling called to adorn your living space, it’s no coincidence,Virgo. Mercury (your celestial ruler) is activating your fourth house of home, family and emotional foundations, so you’re probably thinking about making bold changes in your personal life, if not planning your next family trip.

Conversations with your loved ones may be extra philosophical as you sporadically talk about plans and dreams for the future. Just be cautious of turning everything into a “big” project — the bountiful energy of Sagittarius can also be excessive.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Horoscope Sign Libra.

Feeling chatty,Libra? With Mercury lighting up your curious third house of communication, siblings and immediate surroundings, expect witty exchanges and an influx of ideas. This is a great time to pitch new concepts, reach out to old friends or perhaps plan a little getaway.

You may even feel inspired to join a book club or take on a new creative writing project. Just remember to pace yourself; it’s easy to get so caught up in the thrill that you end up juggling too many conversations and projects at once.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Horoscope Sign Scorpio.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21)

Horoscope Sign Sagittarius.

Say it loud, say it proud,Sagittarius. You’re already outspoken, but this transit ramps up your opinionated and philosophical nature. With Mercury in your sign, this transit is a call to express yourself fully and boldly.

People around you can feel your energy, and you’re likely the life of any gathering. Just be mindful not to overwhelm others with your unfiltered honesty. Not everyone can keep up with your candid style, but those who do will appreciate the clarity you bring.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Horoscope Sign Capricorn.

Retreat, recharge and reflect,Capricorn. Mercury in Sagittarius is igniting your 12th house of closure, healing and unconscious patterns, pushing you to do some serious soul-searching. You may retreat from the usual hustle to explore your inner world or rethink your spiritual practices.Maybe you’re inspired to explore meditative practices or journal through some big ideas. Keep your balance, as you could easily get so caught up in deep thoughts that you lose touch with the outside world.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Horoscope Sign Aquarius.

Gather with your best pals, or take to social media to share your thoughts,Aquarius. Mercury in Sagittarius is lighting up your 11th house of friendships, social networks and future visions, so you’re as drawn as ever to the social scene, which is already up your alley.

You may feel compelled to network and discuss big, forward-thinking ideas with friends and colleagues. This is an excellent time to plan for the future or perhaps even organize a group event. Just try not to overcommit, as Mercury in Sagittarius has a habit of promising the moon, but following through can be a different story.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Horoscope Sign Pisces.

Enthusiasm is the first step, but planning gets you to the finish line,Pisces. With Mercury in Sagittarius charging up your 10th house of authority, career and reputation, you could feel compelled to make big, bold moves in the workplace. You’re also thinking outside the box.

This might look like stepping up to lead a meeting, presenting a new idea or pitching a new project, as you bring a visionary quality to your professional life. Just be mindful that while your ideas might be ambitious, you’ll need a solid plan to bring them to life.
