Mercury sextile Venus

Mercury and Venus love to mingle so you can expect to be invited to all kinds of get-togethers while these two planets are forming a sextile in the sky.  They will bring a breath of fresh air to your social calendar as you make the acquaintance of people that you wouldn’t typically meet.  It’s a great opportunity to broaden your horizons, add to your contact list, and even brush up on your conversation skills.  This planetary energy is usually chatty and fly-by-night, except that you could be making the acquaintance of someone who will go on to become a major player in your life.  But you’ll have to wait to see what the next couple of weeks will bring. Signs most affected:  Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, and Libra
