Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Today’s Sun-Chiron transit positions you well for viewing problems in a new light, dear Aries, especially seeing things more holistically. The desire to grow, learn, and improve is strong, helping to create successful interactions. You might arrive at an agreement or open your heart to someone. People tend to respond especially favorably to you. You might enjoy nurturing an artistic vision or riding on a desire to learn. But as the day advances, watch for defensiveness and sensitivity ruining a good thing. Still, it’s a good time to gain the motivation to plan more responsibly or clearly as Mars and Saturn head toward a square aspect. You may be dealing with communication or transportation delays, but while they appear to set you back, they might ultimately point you in the right direction.

Taurus

With today’s Sun-Chiron aspect opening up possibilities, dear Taurus, you might discover ways to improve and repair relationships. This transit helps you see personal, family, and home matters in a holistic way, which aids decision-making. Finding support and building a positive self-image are themes, and it’s an important time to enjoy support and reinforcement as you rise above insecurities. It’s ideal energy for making long-term plans. You can also share your ideas and plans with people close to you and enjoy the process. Feedback is likely to be favorable. Today, it’s crucial to acknowledge your strengths and accept compliments, as this will empower you and boost your confidence. However, while psychological support can be easy to find in the first half of the day, the day advances with some tension. We approach a Mars-Saturn square that can challenge you to face up to reality or manage a delay or slowdown. Tension and blockages might revolve around your social life or finances, or there can be a conflict between sticking with tried-and-true methods and going out on a limb.

Gemini

The first half of the day is strongly influenced by a Sun-Chiron trine, dear Gemini, and communications are more creative or fascinating. Friends can be a source of inspiration, and happiness goals are in happy focus. This transit might open up a supportive conversation with a friend or a refreshing feeling of camaraderie. You could also discover interesting ways to keep yourself mentally stimulated. It’s a potentially excellent time to think about a larger plan for your life. However, as the day advances, tension can stir as we approach a Mars-Saturn square. This transit could indicate a slowdown if you’ve been rushing ahead too fast, which is quite likely with energetic Mars currently transiting your sign. This slowdown could take the form of a delay, criticism, reality check, or discouraging moment. Aim to pick yourself back up and strengthen your plans and yourself so that you get back on course better equipped to weather small storms.

Cancer

The first half of the day features a Sun-Chiron trine, dear Cancer, that can be wonderfully soothing as it softens the rough edges. It can encourage you to take positive steps toward improving your performance, business, or finances, potentially leading to a significant financial boost. You’re also in fine shape to improve your reputation. You might come up with new ideas that help you improve your workflow. A gentle approach to the world seems to find you at your best right now. Later today, a clash between Mars and Saturn comes into play, and it can mean you’re dealing with obstacles or slowdowns. You might sense that you can’t express yourself, your desires, or your frustrations effectively. You could be feeling that you’re stuck in the past, unable to move forward temporarily.

Leo

The first half of the day is influenced by a pleasant Sun-Chiron trine, dear Leo, positioning you well for creativity and self-expression. The Sun is not only your ruler, but it’s also in your sign, and you’re framed wonderfully well. This transit improves understanding, and problem-solving comes more easily. Your charm is stronger and more noticeable. Whatever you do feels alluring and unique right now! You’re following your inner guide or muse, which can encourage others to want to do the same. The day grows more complicated as it advances, however, and we approach a Mars-Saturn square. This transit can slow you down if you’ve been pushing too hard or too fast in a particular area, such as in your relationships. Difficulties with trust and power dynamics that have been festering might now emerge in challenging ways.

Virgo

In the first half of the day, dear Virgo, your mind might open to an idea or concept. As you naturally do your own thing, people are impressed and intrigued. Getting in better touch with your inner world seems to be the key to strengthening your life under the influence of a Sun-Chiron trine. Your private life is rich today. Supportive influences in your emotional life seem to dominate now, and quite pleasantly. It’s a good time for connecting and sharing something of yourself that helps others open up. It feels good to be trusted! However, as the day advances, we approach a Mars-Saturn square, and the tone becomes more serious. Fortunately, you can turn this to your advantage. This transit might remind you of limits, rules, or obstacles, notably through a person or relationship. It means it’s time to slow down, reconsider, review, and adjust rather than give up on something altogether.

Libra

The first half of the day is strong for a sense of ease and cooperation, dear Libra. Friends or associates can be a source of opportunities to expand your knowledge and experience. A fresh approach to a relationship can come naturally, or refreshment occurs with your connections, networking, or group experiences. It’s a time to humble yourself and listen to what people genuinely tell you, after which you can work on what to improve. You might also find it easier to put your worries aside to attend to larger priorities with the Sun’s trine to Chiron. As the day advances, themes are more serious. We approach a Mars-Saturn square that can be tense but could ultimately lead to a release. You may be dealing with stubbornness in others or blocked plans, but keep in mind that the harder you push or the stronger you come on, the more resistance you’re likely to encounter just for now.

Scorpio

In the first half of today, dear Scorpio, your ability to follow through and back up your words with effort and action helps make you shine. A Sun-Chiron transit brings good energy for new creative approaches to a work project or goal. It’s a fine time for your reputation and pursuits related to business, work, habits, and health. You might thoroughly enjoy pouring extra energy into nurturing a pet project or business. As the day advances, however, we approach a Mars-Saturn square, indicating a need to slow down if you’ve been pushing a pursuit — or yourself — too hard. Intimate matters or issues of money, commitment, trust, and power dynamics can be tricky now, and patience is required.

Sagittarius

With a Sun-Chiron trine influencing the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius, the atmosphere is ripe for improvement and growth. Allowing yourself to experiment and make mistakes seems the right path. You’re in great shape to nurture your desire to learn or share your ideas, and your spirit to venture out into new territory is strong. With the Sun and Chiron both in your self-expression sectors, you get a nice boost to your mood, creations, ideas, and confidence. This transit favors thinking in broader terms rather than specifics temporarily, which is right up your alley. As the day advances, a Mars-Saturn square comes into play, and you can experience stop-and-go energy in your relationships. Interactions may suffer from poor timing or the perception that others are disapproving and disinterested. There can be a feeling of being blocked, either by people or circumstances. While frustrating, it’s also a message from the cosmos to be patient.

Capricorn

With the Sun and Chiron harmonizing today, dear Capricorn, you’re opening up to new approaches and interacting in different ways, and it can be incredibly successful. This transit can boost your sense of inner strength. Willingness to let go of a bad habit or negative line of thinking seems the right way to attract more positivity into your life. Dreams and ideas you come up with today can later take on substance, and your confidence in them will help get things going. Connections with family are more compassionate or creative. As you open up, others seem more cooperative and supportive. However, as the day advances, we approach a Mars-Saturn square. If you’ve been pushing in one direction too quickly, you may encounter blocks to your plans now. An aggressive or impatient approach to a work project or health program may need adjustments.

Aquarius

A Sun-Chiron trine influencing the first half of today encourages a fresh approach to relating, dear Aquarius. It not only comes naturally, but it can also be quite successful. This transit can potentially boost your confidence in your ideas and relationships. You have more courage to express your affections, which may be mirrored back to you through someone special. It’s a time for genuinely listening to others’ concerns and ideas, even if they disagree with yours, and benefiting greatly from it. As the day advances, a Mars-Saturn square comes into play. It can seem to apply the brakes to projects and plans that have been moving too fast for their own good. Keep in mind, however, that this is merely a slowdown, not a halt.

Pisces

Today’s Sun-Chiron transit helps you gain a more holistic understanding of a situation, dear Pisces, and new or improved methods can emerge from this enlightenment. This influence has a way of evening out the pace and mood and can help you arrive at an understanding or agreement with someone close to you. Changes in how you relate to others can be subtle but can lead to significant improvements. In business or material things, you can be attracted to unusual items or enjoy a good find that brings something creative into your life. The day’s energies grow complicated as it advances, however, and a Mars-Saturn square comes into play. Mars in your home and family sector is clashing with Saturn in your sign, and you can experience a feeling of being unsupported or overly burdened. While this is temporary, it’s important to emphasize that you have the power to examine ways to make changes in your life, helping prevent problems such as these from growing or festering.

GEMINI STRONG

Agile, versatile, inquisitive, flowing, conversational, airy, many ideas. Can be volatile, superficial, changeable, restless and inconsistent.

LEO STRONG

Self-confident, generous, warm-hearted, powerful leader, dramatic. Can be overly proud, vain, extravagant, arrogant.

Today’s Elemental Balance

FIRE STRONG

The Fire signs are Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. The element of Fire is enthusiastic, dynamic, and spontaneous, but lacks reflection. We are more courageous and adventurous now, with a tendency to act before thinking. There is little concern about what happened in the past. We are competitive and possibly impatient or bored easily.

WATER WEAK

There may be some insensitivity or lack of empathy now. We may be out of touch with what we’re feeling or with our emotional needs. We may be tougher than usual now, and more inclined to follow mental or practical considerations than we are to listen to our intuition.

Today’s Modal Balance

CARDINAL WEAK

This is not a time that we tend to naturally initiate actions. We may be stronger at following up than starting anew. Survival mechanisms may be weaker now.

MUTABLE STRONG

The Mutable signs are Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini, and Virgo. We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.

Today’s Lunar Phase

LUNAR PHASE: FIRST QUARTER

Moon from 90 to 135 degrees ahead of the Sun.

We are motivated to take action, perhaps due to a clash, conflict, or stress, as we are more aware of problems and differences now. Plans are beginning to take off or turn a corner. We should watch for pushing too hard.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 15th:

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 the Moon 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 involving inner planets 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 lifetime).

We’re less inhibited about expressing sensuality, self-love, body love, and pampering. We’re challenging what we previously valued. There can be abrupt changes with money, valuables, possessions, and income that lead to a reshuffling of priorities or values. Income might come from non-traditional sources or ventures. We’re bringing progressive ideas to the world of business. New ways of doing business, as well as making, viewing, and handling money are likely. Income and the energy we put into making money can be variable. (May 15, 2018, to November 6, 2018, then March 6, 2019, to July 7, 2025, and then November 7, 2025, to April 25, 2026).

PLUTO

PLUTO IN AQUARIUS

(1777 – 1799) It is important to note that Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 to 32 years in each sign. Therefore the interpretation of Pluto in its sign applies to a generation rather than the individual. This is the generation of worldwide co-operation. People in this generation have the ability to make scientific breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity, and may be forced to change the way science is viewed. (Pluto is in Aquarius from March 23rd to June 11th, 2023, from January 20th to September 1st, 2024; from November 19th, 2024, to March 8th, 2043, and from August 31st, 2043, to January 19th, 2044).
