Mercury opposite Jupiter
It’s going to feel like one drawn out version of Opposite Day as Mercury opposes Jupiter in the sky. You can expect people to be contrary for contrary sake, to flip-flop on long held positions, and to reverse direction as crazily as a weathervane in a windstorm. What can make the whole thing maddening is that they will have no knowledge – or memory – of what they are doing. Everyone will suffer from a cosmic case of ADD until this planetary energy lifts – which will be on the 23d. The best way to negotiate this is to avoid any arguments for arguments’ sake and to practice some reverse psychology of your own. Signs most affected: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces.
