Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Today’s Sun-Uranus alignment encourages the need for innovation and inspiration with your business, finances, creativity, and talents, dear Aries. It’s a time for embracing change and accepting that unpredictability can sometimes bring exciting new possibilities into your life. Your thinking is progressive and enterprising, and you’re exploring your more unique qualities and talents. This transit might bring on a sudden desire for a fancy new item or new technology in your everyday life that changes your methods or mood. You might instead want to unburden yourself of excess possessions or clutter. You might become aware of what you’ve been holding onto emotionally and physically that has held you back in key areas of your life. While things may not go as planned today, there can be worthwhile realizations and detours as a result.Taurus
The Sun and Uranus align in your sign today, dear Taurus, bringing strong personal energy into your world. You’re learning a whole new way of doing your life with Uranus in your sign, whether it’s about your true calling, personal initiative, presentation, or attitude. You’re working for yourself first and foremost, and freedom to “do you” is more important to you than ever, perhaps and quite surprisingly, more so than security and certainty. You’re intolerant of limitations and restrictions today as you try to break free from those things that are holding you back from growing. You can be excitable and perhaps a little impatient, particularly with rules or impositions. While you can be feeling rebellious now, you put yourself in the very best position if you answer to a genuine need to make progress rather than merely react to what others are doing. Your individuality, uniqueness, and free spirit are all in the spotlight today. The Moon moves into your solar ninth house for a couple of days, further reinforcing a desire to break the routine.Gemini
Transits today shine a light on what inspires and excites you, and these things may surprise you, dear Gemini. The Sun and Uranus align in the sign just behind yours, and today’s events or realizations might open the doors to a healing process or a new beginning. There can be coincidences or impromptu connections that change your entire focus. Things can happen that feel predestined, out of the blue, or entirely uncanny. Minor disruptions can have the effect of distancing you from self-limiting secrets or situations, ultimately giving you more freedom. If you’re not in touch with your need for change, you might grapple with inner restlessness or touchiness today, which can nevertheless be revealing.Cancer
The Sun’s yearly alignment with Uranus occurs today, dear Cancer, and it’s stirring your social sector. It’s a strong influence on your social life, your sense of community, and money matters. You might broaden your horizons through networking, or there can be some rejuvenation in a relationship. You might explore new labels or connect with different people. Some upsets or disruptions are possible, too, as Uranus tends to help you detach from areas where you’ve been too attached for your own good. Indeed, there can be some excitement or surprises now. Even so, curveballs thrown at you today tend to nudge you into new directions. You feel refreshed, even if there is initial disorientation or disruption of plans.Leo
Inner stirrings that leave you feeling rebellious against the path you’re currently taking or against authority figures can be intense, dear Leo. The Sun’s alignment with Uranus today can bring a breath of fresh air to your career, professional interests, or life path. The winds of change are blowing in these life areas, and for the most, it can feel like a pleasant breeze today. It’s a fine time to intuit where you may want to head. There may be some incentives or benefits for your accomplishments or work. A partnership in or through business can figure strongly now. You might hunger for a fresh start or increased freedom. You may be facing a matter that has your reputation going through changes. It’s important to remind yourself of the need to change along with changing times rather than resist those things that help you grow and improve. Remember that minor disruptions or unexpected changes today can lead you in new directions that ultimately work in your favor.Virgo
The Sun and Uranus meet up in your sector of spirit and adventure today, dear Virgo, boosting a theme of discovery to your life. This can be a time of new, unusual, or possibly even radically different interests, and the Sun spotlights them now. Your worldview is changing, and events that occur now can be catalysts for exploring new ideas. In fact, your extracurricular activities are evolving. Educational plans might shift, or a sudden opportunity for different experiences can emerge. Work and health are also areas that you’re approaching differently. There can be a mind-opening experience, or it’s a time of finding inspiration through branching out and exploring places or topics you wouldn’t investigate on a regular day. Your unique ideas, approach, or guidance can be in the spotlight. The Moon’s move into your creative sector further boosts your desire to enjoy and treat yourself.Libra
Today’s Sun-Uranus alignment can stir feelings and urges, dear Libra, prompting a desire to make long-lasting changes. You might experience a wake-up call or unexpected event that stimulates the need to change your dependencies or your approach, particularly to people in your life and with money matters. If you’ve felt at someone’s mercy in some manner, the urge to break free is strong now. It’s an excellent time to overturn expectations and perhaps break some of your usual routines so that you can grow. It’s a good time to detach just enough that you can make bolder decisions. Aim to use this energy as a boost of courage to make a meaningful change.Scorpio
Today’s Sun-Uranus alignment occurs in your house of “other,” dear Scorpio. Someone might bring surprises into your life, or you may get in sudden touch with your relationship needs, whether they’re new or revised. It’s not easy to accept rules and limitations today, or you meet this energy through a partner or special friend who is rebellious. Unpredictability can be disorienting, but it can also lead to a new understanding of what you need from others and what you’re capable of all on your own. Alternatively, through someone else’s input or unreliability, you may arrive at a different perspective. Old ways of relating to others are falling to the side, paving the way for exciting breakthroughs.Sagittarius
The Sun and Uranus join forces in your solar sixth house today, dear Sagittarius, bringing new energy for work and health and breakthroughs in communication. Increasingly, you require a fresh or different approach to how you do your chores or job, handle routines, and manage health and wellness. Today, these things are in the spotlight. It’s an excellent time to consider which elements of your daily life or work and habits are no longer serving you well. If your routines have been stifling or confining you, you’ll want to break free in some manner, and being mindful is important. You may very well discover new methods to improve important systems in your life.Capricorn
The Sun’s meeting with Uranus in your creative sector today can bring a feeling of rejuvenation and spirited energy into your life, dear Capricorn. You might stand out for your unique creations or personality, or a need awakens to express yourself in unique ways. Signs point to the need for you to detach yourself a little from areas of over-control or those things that deplete your energy stores. This transit awakens you to the need to make changes, grow, and improve. There may be disruptions, detours, or excitement with matters related to your loves, passions, hobbies, and feelings. Plans might change at the very last minute, enabling more freeform and inspirational experiences. It’s much better to identify where change is necessary for your life than to resist it and block things further.Aquarius
Your personal life or domestic world needs a brand new approach, dear Aquarius. The Sun and Uranus join forces in your solar fourth house of home, heart, and family today. The desire to grow, improve, and change can be intense today, or changes seem to be coming your way, and adjustments are necessary. The directions you take can be rewarding, perhaps even leading to some nice opportunities. It’s possible that you need disruptions to routines for your life to move forward. Falling back on the same old conditioned approaches in relationships or habits will only frustrate you today, so aim to make progress with a new style or plan. This way, you might break out of the mold that others have created for you. Partnership matters can be very favorable today, particularly if independence and individuality are emphasized and honored.Pisces
New interests or channels for communicating are changing your perspective, dear Pisces. Your ideas, advice, or guidance might stand out as particularly unique and in demand as the Sun and Uranus align in your communications sector. It’s a good time for communications, work, and health matters. Something can inspire you to branch out with your interests or studies as you awaken to a new way of thinking and expressing yourself. Consider that if you can’t rely on the usual channels for expressing yourself, it can help you answer to your inner rhythms and respond to your intuition more often.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
