Horoscopes
Aries
Even though you’re approaching a weekend, you are moving into a more responsible and motivated period, Aries. Perhaps you’re inspired to make more money or by a particular new idea – whatever the case, you are experiencing more get up and go, and it’s largely revolving around practical affairs – business, career, and money. People more readily follow your lead and go along with your plans today. Keep the momentum going by really applying yourself to the things you love to do, or simply the things that you’re good at and you know will further your goals. Whether or not you receive recognition, you are likely to feel quite proud of your performance.
Taurus
The day has the potential for true relaxation of the mind as you adjust your vision to panoramic, Taurus. The Moon’s move into your solar ninth house this morning encourages you to look at the bigger picture. It’s not as simple as looking at the bright side of things; it’s more about gaining a broader perspective such that daily bumps and bruises seem less relevant and the big picture so much more important. Doors can open in your life now for personal growth opportunities, and a broad mind is a prerequisite. Physical activities can thrive.
Gemini
With the Moon in your solar eighth house from the morning forward, Gemini, you tend to think and feel more deeply, which inclines you to a slightly somber or serious mood. You are a little more introspective now, and necessarily so, as this is part of a larger cycle that encourages you to look within and outside of yourself in a natural progression. This two-day transit is very useful, as you can learn a lot about yourself and others through observation. Today, you might have an important memory, a personal revelation, or a previously hidden resource can emerge.
Cancer
While the Moon is transiting your opposite sign as it is from the morning forward, dear Cancer, others can be an important mirror into your own life. There could be someone who challenges you or makes you feel uncomfortable, and when you come down to it, they are actually contributing important things to your life. This can be an indirect thing, as others could jumpstart your own thinking processes as you react to them, or defend your own ideas and point of view. There are times to go solo, and there are times to be with others, and today’s energies favor the latter. Whether you’re noticing differences or similarities, you’re challenged and ultimately strengthened. Teamwork is especially favored in the second half of the day.
Leo
Even if you’re not in a work environment, you’re inclined to want to organize or set right your immediate environment today, Leo, with the Moon’s move to your solar sixth house this morning. Even if you are emotionally geared to ironing out details and managing routines, you can experience a feeling of being refreshed and revitalized through your work or service. You are in service mode to some degree, as you delight in being supportive. Take extra steps to reach out and help others now, or to strut your stuff with the things you can do.
Virgo
The Moon moves into harmony with your sign this morning, Virgo, and this brings natural energy to your life, especially for emotional and creative expression. It helps that the Moon harmonizes with Mars in your adventure sector – you are more likely to successfully go after what you want or assert your needs and desires. You’re not fighting the waves right now. Creatively speaking, you are in tune. It’s a good day for expressing your affections in simple, straightforward ways, or through your actions.
Libra
Feeling strong and supported from the inside out is vital, Libra, and with the Moon in your solar fourth house from the morning forward and harmonizing with Mars, ideally you’re aiming to strengthen your inner confidence. Today’s energies are generally good for feeling rooted, secure, and supported, but you won’t necessarily be content unless you accomplish something. Recent insecurities seem to dissipate. Take the initiative to establish a sense of peace with those closest to you.
Scorpio
Your inclination early morning is to keep to yourself and tend to your needs, Scorpio, after which your focus shifts and you’re more interested in reaching out to others. Working together with a partner as a team yields the best results today. It’s a good time for earning respect naturally. You enjoy communicating candidly with people you care about. You are coming across as articulate and intelligent, and others respond positively. You are in strong form socially and romantically, and attracting good energy to you, as well as radiating it.
Sagittarius
It’s a good day for practical matters, Sagittarius, with the Moon leaving your sign this morning and entering your solar second house. Emotions tend to settle right down, and life no longer feels like a pressure cooker. You are more able to see what you can achieve realistically, and this clarity can light a fire under you. It’s a good time to make lists and sort things out. You won’t be especially happy unless you’re getting something done and being productive, but you benefit from patience and proper pacing now.
Capricorn
The Moon moves into your sign this morning, Capricorn, making it a strong time for awareness of your emotional needs. However, this can also have the effect of exaggerating needs to the point that they feel urgent. You should beware of acting in an immature fashion, as the tendency now can be to aim for instant gratification. You tend to be in the spotlight, whether you’re asking for attention or not. People are valuing the very qualities that come naturally to you today, and this can subtly boost your popularity. Later today is good for showing your feelings for someone, or for creating something that comes from the heart.
Aquarius
The Moon moves into your solar twelfth house this morning, Aquarius, and this can put you in the background or working behind the scenes in some manner. This two-day transit occurs monthly and is helpful for taking some of the pressure off. It’s a great time for regrouping and refreshing, but not the best time for getting noticed. Take the time to envision what it is you want, and wait until the Moon enters your sign to start pursuing your goals. While this is a quiet time, it doesn’t have to be inactive, and in fact, today you can be quite pleasantly busy, particularly with domestic matters. You can be extremely creative in your impressions and visions.
Pisces
Today’s energies favor social interaction, Pisces, and while you can certainly keep things light, it is a good time for mingling and sharing. You enjoy the feedback you receive from others, which tends to jumpstart your own thinking processes. Later today is especially strong for establishing or developing rapport. These days, you are more assertive and confidently so. The latter part of the equation is the key to success, and helps others to receive you well. You are likely to want to keep busy and connected today – a welcome break after a day of taking things a little too seriously.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on April 10th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
