Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
With the Moon in your solar eighth house all day, dear Aries, you’d probably prefer to observe others. The day’s energies are upbeat, but the tendency to jump to conclusions or decisions runs high. Tension is building, especially if you’re feeling restricted or without direction. Pay special attention to your intuition, and don’t be afraid to pay attention to things you usually sweep under the carpet. A little self-honesty goes a long way right now, particularly if a desire surfaces suddenly and urgently. Compromise and objectivity are both essential now in your dealings with others.Taurus
You’re mainly concerned with close relationships today, dear Taurus. The desire to improve and grow is likely behind impatience today, and toning down impulsiveness is your best bet to achieve it. It’s not the best time in the lunar cycle to act entirely independently or make executive decisions, as you’ll find life all the more enjoyable with two. You are projecting a warm, approachable manner now, and this can attract favorable circumstances into your life. Nevertheless, you are holding tightly to your individuality, which can be confusing. It may be best to find ways to combine your desire for independence and good company for best results today.Gemini
Today’s energies are good for original ideas and problem-solving, dear Gemini. It would help if you watched for impatience and hastiness to get the full benefits. While transits tend to highlight originality or the element of surprise, attention to routine matters is needed. Knowing you’re fixing problems, you might find yourself enjoying the process. Prioritizing tasks early in the day before it gets a little chaotic can be a good strategy. Ideally, the tension in the air now is the kind that gets you motivated to handle things you might avoid on another day. A project can suddenly seem more demanding than it once did, but if it’s worth it, persevere. Family or the desire to enjoy downtime can motivate you now.Cancer
The Moon is in your recreation sector most of the day, dear Cancer, bringing out your sense of play and strong affections. You are getting in touch with the child within, and you gravitate to those things that allow you to express yourself uniquely. There’s some tendency to swing between seeing too much or too little opportunity. You can feel some unrest if you haven’t approached your life and its departments in a balanced way. While the day’s transits are not exceptionally stable or reliable, you tend to enjoy some fresh energy right now.Leo
Today, the Moon spends most of the day in your sector of home and security, dear Leo, and you may want to stick with familiar activities. It’s good for you at this time of the lunar cycle as it allows you to process and connect with your feelings and needs. You are likely in good spirits, pleased with matters of the past that seem to be settling. Transits do stir some tension in close relationships, but getting in touch with the desire to grow and improve at the heart of this stress can help you tame restlessness. Consider ways to boost closeness while nurturing your individuality. Even though you’re focusing on your inner world more intently today, the outside world seems to have its way of tugging at you.Virgo
While the day holds rather forward-looking energy, dear Virgo, there can be some tension revolving around opinions and beliefs. The strong desire to bring improvements to your work and health continues, but you sometimes need to tone it down to give other areas of life more attention. The Moon spends much of today in your solar third house, and your focus is on those things to do with the mind, learning, and communication. Conversations today can be especially rousing. You are sharp, but because your mind tends to rule today, be careful that you’re not missing some important reactions. In other words, take a breath and a moment to check others’ responses to what you’re saying.Libra
While the day holds some impulsive energy, dear Libra, for the most part, you’re content to stay put. The Moon spends most of the day in your settled, comfortable solar second house. Physical comforts and pleasures – anything that reminds you of the beauty of the here and now – can be most appealing. Today’s Venus-Uranus transit tends to stir impatience or a vague sense that you want to do something different, more exciting, and more fulfilling. Your stronger need for companionship or connection with others may clash with a tendency to go it alone or handle problem areas your own way. Listen, respond, and make sure the conversation is going both ways for best results.Scorpio
The Moon continues in your sign for most of today, dear Scorpio. While you should watch for impatience today, this is a good time for getting noticed. You are excitable and perhaps a little easy on the trigger, but you’re also more than willing to turn over a new leaf. You can feel a strong compulsion to leave behind emotional issues that have annoyed you or undermined your personal comfort. Restlessness could interfere with what could be a very creative, spontaneous day if you are not careful. Unfinished business can surface, and handling a duty may be necessary before moving on. Recognize the need to let something go if it helps you go forward lighter and happier.Sagittarius
The Moon spends most of the day in your privacy sector, dear Sagittarius, putting you in a more reflective mood than usual. You’re likely to find that a little more personal space and time to relax helps you refresh and reorient yourself. You are on the final day of a lunar cycle. Although it points to lower energy levels on an emotional plane, it’s a good time for tuning in to your feelings and reviewing the events of the last four weeks. You could feel some pressure to speak before you’re ready, but it’s probably better to sort things out first. A building sense of feeling freer after you turn a corner can guide you now.Capricorn
The Moon spends most of the day in your social sector, dear Capricorn, and you’re looking ahead. You may want to watch for a tendency to want to skip steps. It may be best to decide to act from your heart rather than react to people or circumstances around you. Your inclination is to go your own way and stick to it, which can work for you, but jumping to conclusions or decisions may not be the wisest choice for now. Responsibilities or problems from the past have a way of surfacing for your attention. There can be some restlessness and indecision to manage–when you get what you want, you may feel disappointed, and if this is the case, then consider that it may be you’re not entirely in touch with your desires.Aquarius
Your responsibilities to others are in the spotlight today, dear Aquarius. Well-meaning flattery gets you everywhere, and good energy is with you for showing your effort or competence. Revisions can consume your time. It’s no small feat, but prioritizing is best, and it’s a good idea to note that others are more sensitive to limits than usual today. Others can introduce surprises to your day, or unreliability can keep you on your toes. Sudden urges can be compelling, but getting to the heart of your desires isn’t straightforward now, and whims can throw you a little off course. Conversations can be lively and stimulating, as well as refreshingly open, however.Pisces
There is a tendency to skip steps or jump ahead today, dear Pisces. You can feel especially passionate about your ideas and views and quite sensitive about them as well. Your emotional energy runs high today, and interesting experiences or ideas can fuel it further. At the same time, routine tasks are a little more difficult to take, and some restlessness is possible. While conversations can be stimulating, we’re not necessarily speaking from the heart right now, and our feelings can be left behind. Beware of a tendency today to focus on everything but the most important thing on your agenda. Whims can take hold, and if you are feeling unsettled, try to get to the heart of the matter.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
