Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Your planetary ruler, Mars, meets Saturn today in the sign behind yours, dear Aries, making it wise to slow down if you’ve been overdoing things. You may need to own up to an issue you previously swept under the carpet or overlooked. Or, you might need to make a personal sacrifice to help someone. You might feel overruled now, but you can build quite a bit of strength from this scenario, as it can motivate you to make significant changes. Devising strategies and considering what you want to accomplish down the road helps you avoid pushing something too fast. The need to be patient can emerge, and once self-discipline kicks in, it feels great! Focus on building strength and moving toward your goals in a more orderly, steady fashion. It’s also a time for acknowledging deeper desires that you may not have even known you had.Taurus
Mars and Saturn join forces in your social sector today, and you might experience a reality check in a friendship, group association, or with a special project or long-term goal, dear Taurus. You may need to lay down the law or put on the brakes temporarily before moving ahead. This transit reminds you to consider your limits! Pacing yourself can benefit you, even if it initially feels restrictive. A need for maturity can emerge and is your very best bet for surmounting obstacles right now. Saturn reminds you of a rule, responsibility, or obligation. Through its influence, you may face the idea that one of your dreams or an ideal needs refinement due to practical considerations. For best results now, adopt a step-by-step approach to solving a problem. This may seem counter-intuitive with the spontaneous Moon in your sign all day, but steadying yourself today is a good strategy.Gemini
Mars and Saturn join together at the top of your solar chart today, dear Gemini, and you may need to take charge. A reality check ultimately puts you in a better position, but you could feel slightly overwhelmed temporarily. The details you may have overlooked in the past emerge, or a new game plan is in order, and it’s time to adapt your expectations. With pressure coming from all angles, you might decide to make a stand or dig in your heels and resist. You may need to lay down the law if you’re in a position of authority. A conservative approach in business is necessary now. In fact, you can come up with efficient and workable long-term life strategies and plans at this time! It might be necessary to make some personal sacrifices to overcome a hurdle; the key is to be patient. Eliminating waste in your professional life can be especially helpful now, and you may need to assess the viability of a project/goal to know your next step.Cancer
With Mars and Saturn coming together in your spirit sector today, dear Cancer, it may be time to face reality or handle a responsibility. Overcoming an obstacle in your life can be a focus. You’re in a great position to study or learn something worthwhile. With a clearer outlook, you get in a better place to make adjustments and plans that are genuinely doable. Pacing yourself is best with this grounding, stabilizing influence. However, it also calls upon you to exercise some self-discipline. In other words, it gives back as long as you put in the effort! It’s best to deal with problem areas head-on. Do your best to focus on a game plan or strategy rather than dwell on the frustration of current obstacles. You’re putting your life into better order now, which will ultimately be a relief.Leo
Mars and Saturn meet in your solar eighth house today, dear Leo, and you could get a push to become more organized and take better care of yourself. This may come as a reality check on a financial or intimate level. It’s now time to make up for glossing over vital details or procrastination in the past. For the best results, you might work on sorting things out, debugging plans, and reviewing recent life issues with maturity and realism. It’s best to focus your energies on problems you can solve step-by-step. Under this influence, traditional methods are likely to work best. Drama in your personal life is possible, but avoid getting caught up in a tug of war when you can utilize your energy more constructively. Because this alignment occurs in your intimacy sector, you may need to put some work into a relationship, and it’s a good idea to consider what’s best for the long-term, not just for the time being. A partner’s money or support can be a source of stress, but it’s a good time to work on plans to improve.Virgo
There can be heavy energy with a partner or significant person, dear Virgo, as Mars and Saturn meet in your opposite sign. Or, putting extra effort into a relationship can be in focus. Responsibilities to others can feel weighty, or someone may seem to be blocking you. The reality of a relationship or person in your life can be in focus. Be patient, mature, and responsible now for the best results. These traits seem to earn long-term rewards right now. If a relationship or project withstands pressure, this can be a time for developing a new and improved plan. It’s important to be fair and to meet others halfway, and if you’re getting the short end of the stick, examine whether it’s temporary or ongoing. Instead, you can put real effort into a significant practical pursuit at this time, and it’s wise to focus on the end goal rather than the frustration of the tasks at hand.Libra
Mars and Saturn meet in your work and health sector today, dear Libra, and your duties require more attention, diligence, and concentration than usual. Instead, a roadblock or slowdown reminds you that long-term success requires pacing yourself. Look for ways to simplify so that you can move forward in the best possible direction. Putting in extra effort, following the rules, and facing realities are all important and are more likely to lead to good things, even if you’d rather be doing something else! Facing up to facts with work and health matters helps you make solid, genuinely doable plans of action. In truth, it’s a great time to solve problems, perform, and overcome emotional hurdles. It can be challenging to cut certain things out, but it is satisfying to know you’re taking better care of yourself.Scorpio
With Mars and Saturn meeting in your solar fifth house today, dear Scorpio, there could be a reality, slowdown, or block encountered in a relationship or creative project. Enthusiasm can dip temporarily, but remember that a dose of reality can support you more adequately in the future! It’s a time to draw up solid plans and take things one step at a time based on new, more realistic expectations. While there may be some hurdles to overcome now, it can be easier to meet goals with the motivation that comes from a stronger sense that you can discipline yourself and take charge. Some seriousness is present or necessary in your interactions. It’s best to concern yourself less with whether you’ve made the right choices in the past and more with your current path. If things seem complicated now, take the time to digest and process rather than react too quickly.Sagittarius
With Mars and Saturn joining forces in your home and family sector, there can be a block or restriction to deal with in your personal and family life, dear Sagittarius. Instead, it can be a time to bring more structure to your domestic world. Slowing down plans makes more sense than scrapping them, even if you experience waning motivation. Serious energy may surround household matters now, or you may need to face reality surrounding living conditions. There can be hard work involved with getting a problem area handled, but while there can be some heavy hours put in, you may be actively working on improving your living conditions or home life, leading to long-term benefits. The focus now should be on strengthening and rebuilding; you can feel good about doing your part and meeting your responsibilities.Capricorn
Mars meets Saturn in your communications sector today, bringing a stronger sense of responsibility to your life, dear Capricorn. Conversations about important topics are in focus, or you become aware of details that need special attention. It might also be a time to go all-in with a particular project or learning pursuit. You have more power to actualize your dreams, but you must take responsibility, follow the rules, and put in the work. For best results, approach problems one at a time and step by step. Challenges in getting your ideas across can lead to better or improved channels for communication or transportation later. Aim to liberate yourself from unrealistic dreams if they weigh you down! There are rewards to putting in a little extra work now.Aquarius
This can be a time to get serious about finances or face reality regarding money, dear Aquarius. You can feel strongly about taking more control over your money, resources, or talents, which helps you to feel empowered. With Mars and Saturn aligning in your resources sector, it’s a strong time to examine what you’re capable of doing to overcome obstacles. Getting rid of unrealistic dreams or expectations can be helpful now. Consider that your life will improve as you deal with the facts and avoid living in fear of what might or might not happen. Activities that enhance your feeling of being on top of things and in charge of your life are in focus. Hard work may be involved! Following the rules makes the most sense for the time being. You’re learning what’s most important to you with this transit, and you’re also seeing that you’re quite capable of handling a challenge. Aim to expect more, but not too much, from yourself now. Remember, facing financial realities is a crucial step towards your financial stability and success.Pisces
A steady approach is a good idea today, dear Pisces, with Mars and Saturn coming together in your sign. Gaining a strong sense of what you can and cannot do is important now, not by lowering your standards or abandoning your dreams, but by getting a better grip on reality. This transit reminds you to take better care of yourself, follow the rules, be thorough, and take matters step by step to get things right. Bringing more realism into the picture is the key to feeling empowered now. If you’re left to your own resources, you will likely discover you can hold your own! After all, self-reliance is a valuable skill! Try to simplify and focus on the practical, as this can be the start of a new and improved plan of action. You may need to get serious about a personal matter. Aim for self-discipline and consider the long-term benefits of an orderly approach.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
