That should probably be "los cuernos están en tu mente."
Without more context, a proper translation can't be given. There may be an idiomatic use or a play on words we don't know about.
The literal translation is "the horns are in your mind."

Without further context, I'd assume that this is part of a fight between a couple. One of them accuses the other of having an affair, and this is the denial. "Ponerle a alguien los cuernos" is to cuckold them.

The context would definitely help, but I agree with Pjt that it looks like a fight where someone thinks their partner is cheating on him/her.
Los cuernos están en tu mente -> Te imaginas que te pongo los cuernos (pero no) -> I'm only cheating on you in your imagination.

I couldn't think of a sufficiently elegant way to express it, but Angélica is spot on with "cheating".

I agree with Angelica and Pjt33. Context would help, but the interpretation seems rather spot on.

I agree with Angelica.
Already here in México the word Cuernos en tu mente o cabeza means the infidelity of both genders.
Sincerely yours.
