ARIES & ARIES RISING

As Mercury finishes its retrograde, that check appears from mail purgatory, the books start to balance, and the fog clears from your financial landscape. If accounting went a bit feral in recent weeks, make moves to Mercury-proof your weak spots. Splurge on a silk pouch for keeping your receipts. Create new systems that track your spending so those Uber bills don’t suddenly pounce. If you’ve never been a spreadsheet person, choose one that’s pleasing to the eye. By bringing beauty to your bookkeeping fixes, they’ll be more likely to stick.
