SUNDAY 12TH - SATURDAY 18TH APRIL 2026

	Mercury enters your own sign this week and in doing so makes you feel more chatty than you've been for a long while. At last you're more confident about sharing your thoughts with others, so they'll find you more forthcoming than of late. You'll also have lots of nervous energy to get rid of, and it'll make you feel restless and on edge unless you can get out and about as much as possible. With the New Moon illuminating your own sign this week, you're now in a good position to push ahead with personal plans and also to make any constructive changes that are necessary in your life. And if anyone's going to come up with brilliant ideas or find themselves being asked out on a date, it's you!
	Mercury moving into your chart's most secretive zone puts you in a rather more reflective and quiet mood, making you much less eager to share your thoughts with others. Even so, you could benefit from confiding in someone, provided you trust them absolutely not to broadcast your innermost secrets to all and sundry. Failing that, you might like to write your thoughts down in a diary and keep them in a safe place. The New Moon illuminates your chart's most private sector and suggests that you're about to embark on a rather secretive exploit or encounter. Should you be contemplating something like this, ask yourself whether you'll be able to carry it off properly or whether you'll slip up and land in some very hot water indeed.
	Your ruler Mercury moves into your chart's social sector and heralds the start of a phase when friends and other contacts will play an important part in your life. This is also a good time for mixing business with pleasure, because you're at your most charming right now and you'll be able to impress some very important people. However, go easy on the food and drink, otherwise you'll feel awful afterwards! Major changes will be happening in your social life as you enter a more upbeat and exciting phase, thanks to the New Moon. Someone you meet now could boost your confidence in an unexpected way. Cerebral pursuits can also be great fun, so now's the time to go back to school and take a course in creative writing or learning a foreign language.
	Mercury moving into your chart's ambitions zone this week gives you the perfect opportunity to make some creative changes in your work environment, especially if it's been getting you down lately. You might even be inspired to apply for a new job or seek promotion, and the planets are certainly working in your favour now. The New Moon signals that there are positive, important career changes underfoot, so do not be afraid to take a risk and follow your own star. Your sixth sense for how to impress someone whose support you need to get ahead will not let you down, so go all out for what you want and be ambitious. A new era is beginning - all you have to do to make real and lasting progress is simply ask for what you want and be determined.
	Mercury moves into the area of your chart that rules travel and education - and something is going to arouse your curiosity and you'll enjoy learning more. It's time to give your grey cells a little exercise - whether you do this for pleasure or profit. Right now, you aren't content with your current level of knowledge and want to increase it in some way. You might even be thinking of taking a college course or learning a foreign language. The New Moon signals the ending of a time in which you have been under pressure to conform to others' expectations and demands, so leave the past behind and concentrate on broadening your horizons. Those who feel they have the right to tell you what to do will change their tune if you are firm.
	As Mercury - your ruler - moves into your chart's power sector, this is a great time for talking with anyone who has a big impact on your heart or your bank balance. The more open and honest you can be with them, the more successful your conversations will be. The New Moon is illuminating your chart's relationships sector, so grab the chance to turn over a new leaf with someone you know very well. Maybe you've been taking each other too much for granted recently, in which case you now want to woo them all over again.
	With Mercury moving into your chart's relationships zone, the best way to understand other people is to talk to them at every opportunity. Otherwise, you'll be left guessing about their needs and motives, and you could easily get things wrong as a result. This is a very good time for any negotiations and discussions, because you're eager to hear what others have to say. But don't be too keen to reach compromises - it's far better for you to hold out for what you think is right. Your love life enters a new, more positive and optimistic phase, thanks to the New Moon. Be open to the possibilities around you. It also seems that someone is now ready to forget a certain issue and put out the hand of friendship, so be prepared to meet them half way.
	As Mercury moves into your chart's heath and work sector, you may not be feeling 100% and you'll find that colleagues have plenty of advice or help for you. So, there's no need for you to struggle on alone - reach out to others. You might also make some extra money at work, perhaps when you're offered a pay rise or bonus. The New Moon signals far-reaching career changes. It also seems that you can count on someone in a key position, so do not hesitate to seek them out and ask for their support. But be realistic and prepared to wait a while for what you really want.
	Mercury is moving into your chart's most social sector, so matters related to abroad seem to be important. Furthermore, foreigners in your circle are at their most sociable and you'll be inundated with invitations to enjoy yourself; whilst doing so, there's going to be plenty of opportunity for casual romance. The New Moon signals a fresh chapter in your love life. New doors are opening and the people you are due to meet could introduce you to a more exciting and inspiring world. Life is due to take a more exciting turn as you branch out and meet new people - one of whom could play a major role in your life in the months to come.
	With Mercury moving into the sector of you chart governing your roots, your thoughts start to move in the direction of the past, putting you in quite a sentimental and nostalgic frame of mind at times. Although you'll enjoy mulling over old memories, do your best not to neglect the present because you're so wrapped up in the past. Nevertheless, you could hear from someone who's been quite a stranger recently, and that will trigger a fresh wave of memories. The New Moon is filling you with great ideas for your home and family. New Moons are always a good opportunity to start new projects, and right now you'll fare best if you can get ahead with domestic plans. Try to get started in the next few days, because your time will soon be taken up with lots of preparations for a special occasion or celebration and if you want someone to help you they may not be available then.
	Mercury moving into your chart's communications zone makes you want to be extra active and gregarious. There will be times when you'll find it almost impossible to sit still and you'll want to be on the move as much as possible. Short journeys will be interesting, enjoyable and productive, and you'll make some new contacts in the process. You'll also get a buzz out of putting pen to paper, whether you're writing letters or keeping your diary up to date. The New Moon signals a more confident, fulfilling period, in which you can express your feelings and creative talents. New channels of communication are also about to open up, so do not miss the opportunity to bring about important changes.
	Mercury moves into your chart's wealth zone, so you will gain goodwill as well as more money from travelling, paperwork and perhaps a fresh outlook on life too. Should you have a Gemini or Virgo in your circle, they might be giving you some good advice - so maybe you should listen. The New Moon illuminating your chart's wealth sector gives you a great opportunity to boost your finances and, in doing so, provide for your future. It's a good time for getting new ventures off the ground - and if you start something new now, it stands a very good chance of being a success.
