Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

You might now notice details you missed due to your haste the first time, dear Aries, which can be helpful but could also lead to tension. For the best results, finish up those things that need more attention rather than pushing ahead right now. Aim to tie up loose ends and avoid speaking too soon or impulsively about a matter. Your ability to take criticism may be tested, or you could wrestle with your inner critic, as you could feel that what you’re doing now is not your best. Detach yourself and take breaks to help manage potential frustrations better. The day advances with lighter energy but no less involving. The Moon spends the day at the top of your chart, encouraging you to do the responsible thing. Looking back at unfinished work can be rewarding.

Taurus

You may disagree with someone about core values, dear Taurus, or about whether someone values you in crucial ways. Consider putting a problem aside for a bit if it’s just not budging. You may think of a better way to go about it at a later time. Fortunately, tension breaks up as the day progresses. Today’s Moon encourages you to explore. There can be a natural feeling of restlessness stimulated as a result, as the ordinary doesn’t appeal. This is a good time for kind gestures and extending your support to others. While Mercury’s retrograde in your romantic sector can point to some reserve or backtracking in this department, warm expressions of affection, particularly through small gestures and actions, are well-received right now.

Gemini

You may feel a strong desire to move forward, dear Gemini, but obstacles seem to appear as you do. It’s important not to react to these blockages with impatience, as it’s not going to support your cause. Instead, aim to wait things out. Use any delays you face to make important edits and refinements. This way, you win! The day advances with more smoothness. It’s a good time to take extra special care of your domestic world and special things. A special someone may be part of the reason for getting your affairs in order, or a partner can be supportive and part of the process now. It’s a decent time for domestic work and cooperation. The Moon spends the day in a highly intimate and introspective area of your solar chart, and you benefit from observing and waiting things out before drawing conclusions.

Cancer

With Mars in your solar twelfth house and Mercury retrograde these days, dear Cancer, you’re meant to consider the past more frequently. Still, it’s about putting challenging situations behind you, not dwelling on those things you can’t control. Early today may not be as free-flowing as you’d like as you battle this tendency to feel stuck, but as the day advances, you feel increasingly less blocked. A kind gesture or communication from a friend or acquaintance can touch you now. The Moon spends the day in your partnership sector, and you seek feedback or a better balance. With this Moon transit, it’s natural to compromise, seek the middle ground, and come to a moderate view on a matter.

Leo

Early today, bottled-up anger can challenge your well-being, dear Leo, while exploding can be destructive as well. Aim for moderation, and you’ll be in the best position now. Do your best to respond to challenges with patience and mindfulness. Success depends on your ability to focus on getting your priorities sorted rather than worrying too much about how far away a goal might be. All of this can be uncomfortable but revealing, allowing you to see which areas need the most work. However, the day shapes up to be lighter and freer. Even with Mercury retrograde, you’re in great shape for expressing yourself. The Moon in your sector of work and health encourages special attention to your practical life and sorting out problems.

Virgo

There can be difficulties with a partner or superior, dear Virgo, or you may feel misunderstood or blocked from pursuing your goals or asserting your wishes. Challenges may have to do with something you’ve buried or tucked away. Watch for defensiveness, which won’t serve you well. Try not to waste time on anger and do your best with what you have. Blocks are temporary and may be helpful, as redirection can pull your attention to flaws that need correcting before going forward. The day progresses with more lightness but plenty of food for thought. You’re getting along well with people today, and sharing personal wisdom and ideas with others can be reinforcing now. You are in a nurturing frame of mind, although you should watch that you don’t take on so much caregiving that you end up overwhelmed.

Libra

Early today, dear Libra, try not to waste time and energy on things you can’t change. Instead, aim to concentrate on improving your outlook by finding topics that excite your interest. Fortunately, there can be especially meaningful conversations happening now, although conclusions are not yet wise since there is likely more to the story. This is a potentially strong time for free-form style in your interactions with others, which can encourage great ideas and improved bonding. If you focus on making improvements rather than grand gestures or big moves, you’ll more thoroughly enjoy your day and your connections. The Moon spends the day in your solar fourth house, suggesting a need for familiar, safe experiences, which can be refreshing and recharging.

Scorpio

Early today, there may be some off-timing or inhibitions that prevent a smooth flow of affection and direct assertion, dear Scorpio. This may be a better time to slow down or yield. While temporary, a delay or block now can help you discover areas that might need revision. As the day advances, your load feels lighter. It can be a good time to nurture a friendship or partnership, especially with memories and reminders. There is a greater appreciation for the quiet, easygoing moments in a relationship, and kind gestures or words of appreciation can go a long way toward improving your connections today. The Moon spends the day in your solar third house, and your curiosity seems to take the lead! It’s a good time to pick up information tidbits.

Sagittarius

Energies early today point to the need to wait things out and spend a little more time getting things right before pushing ahead with your plans, dear Sagittarius. In fact, a delay might be a blessing in disguise if it reveals a flaw in a plan. The day lightens up, but it still provides you with much to think about. The key is to focus on improvement rather than expansion. If you can find your emotional center, it could be a great time to connect with a friend or a subject that interests you. You might also discover a hidden gem in past work or plans. Conversations and musings today can help reveal something you may have missed or overlooked in busy times.

Capricorn

Watch for overdoing things today, dear Capricorn, simply because you feel capable of doing more than usual. If you move beyond reasonable boundaries, then aim to do so gradually. Remind yourself that delays can allow you to make advantageous refinements and edits so that you can resume your activities better equipped later. The Moon spends the day in your sign, heightening your emotions. You’re in a good position to express yourself as the day advances. However, as much as you may not feel like it, go over important emails or documents before sending or signing. Revision may be necessary.

Aquarius

You’ve been more confidently pursuing fun and games recently, dear Aquarius, and today, you might come to a roadblock or a financial limitation. Instead, worries and concerns might temporarily put a damper on your mood. You may be fearful of change on a basic security level, yet attracted to taking some risks, and this poses a dilemma now. Take your time, avoid pushing in the face of resistance, but pay attention to your responsibilities and fulfill them to the best of your ability. Maintaining a balanced approach is key to avoiding unnecessary complications. You might benefit from reviewing a relationship or financial matter now, as you might discover something you previously overlooked. The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, encouraging some time out.

Pisces

You may be digging in your heels, especially if others appear to be pushing or rushing you, dear Pisces, or if they are a little too brusque or insensitive for your liking. A slow, patient, and moderate approach is the most successful today. Fortunately, even if you start the day feeling a little restricted, as the day moves forward, you are a little lighter. The Moon spends the day in your social sector, and you enjoy taking a break from performing or accomplishing. Conversations with a special someone can be revealing, but it’s important to keep in mind that matters aren’t yet final, and more details can emerge later. For now, someone might raise thought-provoking questions.

We are looking to attach value and meaning to our goals. This is a time for analyzing, questioning, perfecting, and improving.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 16th:

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).

The Moon through Pluto: Signs, Aspects, & Degrees

THE MOON

THE MOON IN CAPRICORN

ASPECTS OF THE MOON

We tend to seek out harmony, balance, and beauty. Love, romance, decorating, beauty treatments, the arts, creative pursuits, parties, dates, and recreation are generally favored now. There is increased sensitivity, affection, and warmth, but there could also be some appeasement, tact, and diplomacy.

THE SUN

THE SUN IN LEO

You are good-hearted, have a sunny personality, and a strong need for attention. You have a generous nature, but can be arrogant.

25TH DEGREE OF LEO

Part of Body: Pericardium

ASPECTS OF THE SUN

CONJUNCTION MERCURY Orb 4°23′ Applying

Thoughts and communications about ourselves and our goals. We are expressing ourselves confidently, directly, and clearly.

SQUARE URANUS Orb 2°52′ Applying

We may want to break free from restrictions or responsibilities, but if we aren’t in touch with this need, we could cause some problems or feel restless and irritable. There could be rebellious feelings. We don’t want to be told what to do. Use this time to see what changes need to be made.

TRINE CHIRON Orb 0°55′ Separating

We find it easier to bounce back from criticism, rejection, or feelings of insecurity; to humble ourselves. We can be filled with a sense of purpose. We more easily cooperate with others.

MERCURY

MERCURY IN LEO

29TH DEGREE OF LEO

Part of Body: Atrioventricular septum

Sabian Symbol: A mermaid emerges from the ocean.

ASPECTS OF MERCURY

SQUARE URANUS Orb 1°30′ Applying

We may not be seeing things clearly, or we are second-guessing our perceptions. There can be difficulties concentrating and focusing.

VENUS

VENUS IN VIRGO

15TH DEGREE OF VIRGO

Part of Body: ‘Bare area’ of liver

We are easily distracted, craving pleasure or leisure. We may be overdoing things, overselling ourselves, overbuying, or overstating our affections. There can be a lack of self-discipline now. However, we can also push ourselves to reach a little further than we usually do, particularly on a social level.

OPPOSITION SATURN Orb 3°28′ Applying

You have an inability to trust and show your love for other people. This probably stems from childhood experiences with your parents. You may have felt unworthy of your parents’ love. Alternatively you may have perceived your parents’ as cold and unloving. As an adult you may become involved in relationships with an older person or someone who offers you financial or emotional security. You need to develop your own value system and develop compassion for yourself and other people.

Sabian Symbol: The head of a youth changes into that of a mature thinker.

SATURN

SATURN IN PISCES

Acompassionate and intuitive worker, although sometimes anxious and fearful. Strong karma to be worked through. A time to assess our dreams, mental health systems, and sense of compassion and empathy. (Saturn is in Pisces from March 7th, 2023, to May 24th, 2025, and then from September 1st, 2025, to February 13th, 2026).

Sabian Symbol: In a huge tent a famous revivalist conducts his meeting.

URANUS

URANUS IN TAURUS

(1934 – 1942) We approach money and personal possessions in new ways and learn how to free ourselves from certain material constraints. Innovative ways to make ourselves comfortable emerge. 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).

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE IN PISCES

You are on a spiritual quest, and your destiny is linked with expressing your artistic and creative talents. Your challenge is to discover your highest potential and intuition. You may express your talents through spiritual or artistic groups.

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).

Sabian Symbol: The dawn of a new day, everything changed.
