Relationships are still on our minds as Mercury continues to be in retrograde until October 2. As it moves into Virgo today, here is a good question to ask the people around you: "What do you need from me?"

This can be a loaded question, but it comes from a place of desire for connection. And the question (appropriately) gives both parties something to think about. As I discuss on the call, you may not have the details worked out right away but they'll come over the next month.

At my last Coffee & Charts call, I offered these tips for moving with the global flow:

• On Tuesday, September 22 allow space for quick conversations and meet-ups. These might be last-minute but it's what happens every time Mercury and the Sun pass each other.

• As the Sun moves steadily through the Mercury portal and across from the Jupiter portal, notice how you are trying out some of the ideas you've thought about with your relationships.

• When Venus passes through the same area starting Sep 28, you'll get some feedback about how it's going. Don't forget to give encouragement to others who are putting effort into their relationship with you.

• From September 26-28, if you have something in your chart at 18-19°, an idea may  arise that helps you streamline or restructure your life. If it touches your heart, pay attention and pull on that thread.

May these tidbits be helpful for you on your journey!
