Horoscopes

Aries 

For the most part, you feel supported today, dear Aries. Good energy is with you for expressing your more playful side, and you may be recognized for your creativity. While there may be some sensitivity to what’s said on a professional level or concern about your reputation today, it’s a strong time for practical affairs, purchasing, and drawing up plans. You could be recognized for your work, and you could be working on or reviving projects with long-term benefits. New insights about relationships or finances can be had today, and you might get to a better understanding of what to do next in order to secure a better position. Your judgment of value is strong now, and this can mean better purchasing and relationship decisions.

Taurus

Again today, there may be a tendency to be quick on the trigger when it comes to speaking or communicating in reactive mode, Taurus. Watch for hypersensitivity when patience will service you far better. Later today, Venus in your sign is connecting well with Pluto, and this brings clever energy to your world. It’s a strong time for charm levels, but more importantly, on healing and positive reinforcement. You can do well by looking at things a little more deeply, doing a little investigating or researching, and thinking in terms of recycling or reworking what you already have. Your patience now brings in positive vibes and attention. Relationships are subtly enhanced. You are suddenly made aware of what, and who, it is that you truly value.

Gemini

Today is quite mixed in energy, dear Gemini. There is some tendency to go overboard, to say too much, to think too much, or to promise more than is healthy. You may feel slighted by an interaction with a friend. Don’t ignore your inner voice today. There is very good energy today for pouring into something, or someone, special due to lovely Venus moving into harmony with Pluto by aspect. Harness the energy available to you now into something truly worth pursuing instead of scattering yourself. You are seeing the significance of the balance of power is in your relationships more clearly now. You may even get to the heart of what or who you want under this influence, as you are often too distracted to truly see it. Love is rich and complicated now. Attractions are complex as well, and secret love may be revealed now.

Cancer

This is a time for subtly increasing your personal influence in groups, with friends, and with a partner, Cancer, if your intentions are simple. If you’re looking for more influence because of fear, then your best approach would be an above-board one. A relationship can enjoy a nice boost today through mutual respect, understanding, and inner courage. Let yourself feel more intensely, but also give others personal space and freedom. You may get into better touch with what it is you truly value in yourself and in others, as this can be distorted at times, especially as you are often so concerned with what others need, and you can really benefit from checking in with your own needs. Today is good for doing so.

Leo

While there can be some hurt feelings today, particularly surrounding opinions and work, dear Leo, it’s also a strong day for building your confidence. You may get the opportunity to see what you truly value, and how you are truly valued by others, when it comes to the services or support you provide or your career. Positive word can come about your long-term plans. Get caught up in the work that truly excites you, and you’ll do especially well now. You are more inclined to put yourself out there and pour your energy into the things you love today. A sense of purpose comes forth. Higher -ups or the public are appreciative of what you’re doing as well.

Virgo

Today, there can be a tendency to inflate or exaggerate what’s said, or even what’s not said, dear Virgo, quite possibly to your disadvantage. Even so, today is very strong for applying yourself once you do get motivated. You are thinking in bigger terms but also streamlining. You can in fact hone in on what is truly important to you and what has long-term appeal and benefit. Don’t hide your creative side right now. You may enjoy a financial boost or possibly a gift or bonus coming your way. Relationships and feelings are more intense than usual, but pleasantly so.

Libra

Watch for doing too much today, dear Libra, particularly if it involves pleasing others who may not fully appreciate all that you do for them. However, as the day advances, you can benefit from a stronger sense of what’s truly important to you. If you need to strengthen a relationship, particularly with a loved one, this is a good day for doing so. For some, this can be a good time to get a loan or other support. You might learn more about an important person in your life. It’s a good day for intimate relationships and conversations. There could be an opportunity arising to attract people who can help you grow. Attractions are strong and run deep today.

Scorpio

While there is a tendency to make more of something than it is today, dear Scorpio, as the day advances, so does your judgment. Circumstances are such that you feel more empowered, patient, and in control of your life. Good energy is with you for coming to a real understanding with someone special. People are drawn to you – you are positively radiating. Relationship matters can do especially well, and you readily gain support for your ideas or recognition and respect for your intelligence and manner. Your observation skills are on target. Some of you could be attracting work that truly suits you.

Sagittarius 

There is a tendency for a misunderstanding or miscommunication to occur today, dear Sagittarius. Somebody is making more of an issue than it is, and exaggeration leads to mistakes or frustrations. Later today, however, you are resolving to make changes and to grow with and through them. You’re more inclined to come across as powerful, prestigious, or trustworthy. Projects can be revived or furthered. You have a real sense of what works in the long term, and this benefits you both financially and personally. You might discover what it is you truly value and work towards it.

Capricorn

There is a tendency for people to blow something out of proportion today, dear Capricorn, and while this can be distracting, overall, this is a strong day for making subtle but important advances. You tend to command positive attention, and you could find ways or make plans that help you to expand your creative reach or expand your personal horizons. With Pluto in your sign supported by Venus in your creativity and romance sector, your personal magnetism is strong and natural, and there can be healing, positive interactions with people that feed your good mood and sense of effectiveness. Expressing yourself creatively can also attract positive responses.

Aquarius

While you may have difficulty with something that’s said or harsh criticism today, Aquarius, advances can be made now. There can be good opportunities to expand, strengthen, and enhance family relationships, and on some level, you may very well find peace with your past. There can be some intense emotions in the process, but it leads to growth and is ultimately very satisfying. Chances are good that today you will find something that was once lost, rediscover your feelings for someone, or uncover an important resource.

Pisces

You may be making more of something than it deserves today, dear Pisces. Try not to jump to conclusions, and take information coming in with a grain of salt. Emotions are a little strong at times, and they can color our perceptions. However, there is also strengthening energy with you as the day advances, and this can bring a nice boost to your relationships and especially friendships. A good talk may be part of this, but nonverbal communication can figure strongly as well. You are also in a strong position in group settings, as you’ll find you not only enjoy the company, but you may be appreciated for the unique things you bring to the group. While there can be some problems with misunderstandings, your concern and care can certainly save the day.

*Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on March 29th:

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).
