Today's energy has the Sun linking with the Node and moving opposite Saturn and Pluto. People are going to be more dedicated to doing things that push towards their fate and destiny. The decisions we make today can ultimately be very important ones that help to define the paths we're going to take moving forward. In existing situations though, there's also a lot of "put up or shut up" attached to this. You probably already know which paths you want to take, but it's up to you to put things into action.

A general resistance to change can still linger as well, and without external pressure for you to make changes, you can get this sense that "things will be fine anyway". Pay attention to the opportunities that come and go now. It's the things that you aren't doing here that you might end up looking back on later and regretting.

Ultimately, the goal today is to stay active. With Mercury retrograde, you don't want to act recklessly, but you still need to remain in motion. Look to take care of things earlier in the day so you don't have them hanging over your head later on. Move from one task to another as quickly as you can. Be careful about how you plot your breaks. There's a lot you can do to improve situations, so look for every chance you can to get things moving in your favor. Best of luck.

Elements of your past can loom but you might be hesitant to fully deal with them. These sorts of things can seep into the work you do, and at times you might look at past situations or limitations as a roadblock to what you're working on now. It's important to look at your current situations with a sense of reason though. You might be too focused on them and you need to reestablish balance with others things going on around you. Work hard, but try to find some time to unwind as well - this will allow you to reconnect with things you might've missed.
