As Jupiter turns direct in passionate Scorpio on July 6, you are ready to take some significant steps forward in your life. But wait! Mercury also turns retrograde on July 4, so it will be essential to do a thorough review of your plans before you get too far ahead of yourself.
Whenever Mercury goes retrograde, the most important point to remember is that it will now prove tricky to make informed decisions about the future. Mercury retrograde periods are notoriously well-known for communication snafus as well as difficulty and/or lapses in decision-making. Yet with Jupiter also turning direct, no time will be better for looping back to old contacts, reviewing ideas and rethinking ways of optimizing your schedule.

Mercury ends its retrograde and turns direct on July 28. If youve developed your game plan and done your homework, you'll find the weeks leading up to this juncture fruitful indeed!
Sincerely,

Today's Outlook: The Scorpio Moon gives the day a strong emotional tilt, but buoyant Jupiter adds optimism and power as it turns direct today. On top of that, there is an electric buzz between Venus, the planet of love, and Uranus, the planet of rebellion, creating desire for excitement, stimulation and new experiences. Rules no longer hold us back when sensual Venus tensely squares Uranus. Although we consider what we are willing to risk in order to get what we want, this doesn't mean that we should necessarily go for it.

July 6: Jupiter in Scorpio ends its March 4 retrograde
A lot has changed since Jupiter went retrograde in March. Things you thought were going to happen didn't. There have been delays in projects and plans, and some social and economic changes as well. As Jupiter turns direct in this powerful sign, you are ready to reengage your passion. You've developed your game plan -- now take it as far as it can go. But easy does it until Mercury completes its retrograde on the 28th.

3rd July 2006 - 9th July 2006
How often have you found that a problem was caused entirely by a failure to communicate? Too often is my guess. People leave messages that are not picked up, packages are incorrectly addressed and even when information is safely sent and received, the contents may be misleading. Nine times out of ten when plots are lost, Mercury is retrograde or Neptune is in the mix, and we have both factors undermining our progress this week. Of course, there are the odd occasions when failure to communicate is a blessing. I am reminded of the last time Mercury was retrograde, when I was eight thousand miles from home base. I had turned off the phones, put in my earplugs and gone to sleep: the next morning I found three messages on my ansafone - the first said: we have a serious problem, the second, fly back without delay and the third, panic over, it's all sorted.
