Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
You’ve been feeling more creative and ready to enjoy yourself these days, dear Aries. This process has ups and downs, and early today may be one of the “dips.” Energies may temporarily drop with a Sun-Neptune quincunx. You may be second-guessing things, which naturally slows you down. While you may feel a little confused for now, this is a time to see different angles of a situation and adjust your plans if needed. Avoid too-high expectations today. Pie in the sky thinking has its place and its merits, but if you are banking on something happening and it doesn’t, you’ll end up deflated. There may be some doubts that need clearing up, and it’s a process that you can’t and shouldn’t rush. Later today, your spirits are lifting. You’re more sociable, connected, and hopeful.Taurus
The Moon in your sign all day feels fresh, dear Taurus, but energies early today are better for biding your time. Your focus tends to diffuse. Avoid taking on new projects or commitments so you don’t overload yourself. It may not be easy to do what you want because people who need help or support are taking priority. Or, uncertainties in your social life or with a project can temporarily leave you feeling unsettled. New ideas and promises coming to you may not have much permanence. Aim to be patient and accept a roundabout way of getting where you want to go or wait for a better time to pursue your goals more directly. The day advances with easier, more straightforward energy. New approaches to domestic affairs can figure strongly, and you can enjoy pleasant turnarounds in your personal life.Gemini
Transits in the first half of the day are a little too murky for big moves, dear Gemini, but it’s a good time to slow down, process, and digest. Aim to slow your approach just enough that you see where you might be making errors or overlooking your true feelings on a matter. Listen well to what your intuition is saying, but wait for clarity. Your defenses may not be up to par, leaving you somewhat vulnerable to others’ judgments or comments. As the day advances, cooperation improves considerably with clearer and more generous and free communication.Cancer
Different drives compete for your attention in the first half of the day, dear Cancer, and this can be exhausting on an emotional level. Adjustments may be necessary if you sense something is a little off. You can also be more sensitive than usual, and you may need some rest or special attention to overlooked needs. Watch for seeing problems where they don’t exist. If emotions and reactions seem inappropriate for the situation, it’s time to look within. Processing or digesting can be good for you. As the day advances, it’s easier to let go of overthinking and embrace enjoyment. You can be more optimistic or willing to see the bright side of a situation, leading to increased peace or joy.Leo
The Moon in your sector of career and responsibility all day keeps you on your toes, dear Leo. Still, in the first half of the day, it may be better to slow down, make adjustments, and imagine possibilities rather than pursue your interests directly. Either you need to think something through or make refinements before moving forward. You could feel a little vulnerable or low and temporarily demotivated as the Sun in your sign forms a minor challenging aspect to Neptune. Consider sleeping on your ideas and waiting for confidence to return. This way, you’ll get the chance to consider all (or more) angles of a situation. It’s possible that you’re missing some critical emotional considerations in your haste to move your plans forward. Now is the time to get in touch! Look for objective feedback or rest and build up your strength. Later today, you’re in great shape to put your creativity and skills to good use. You can feel incredibly at ease and comfortable, and it’s a fine time to express your ideas.Virgo
There can be some minor confusion or doubt in the air in the first half of the day, dear Virgo, which can slow you down. Solutions to problems are more likely to arrive if you aren’t obsessing over them today. With current transits, you’re likely to be more impressionable, vulnerable, sensitive, and inclined to daydream. It can be tempting to withdraw, avoid, and escape. While you should probably take a timeout, it may not be reasonable to bow out of too much now. Watch for confusion or vagueness with others. You may feel a little out of step, unsure if you want time to yourself or companionship. Before moving forward, aim to rest, digest, and process a bit more. The day progresses with more ease. In fact, you can experience a real sense of joy through your connectionsLibra
A slight dip in energy is possible today, dear Libra, although the second half of the day can be about rebuilding enthusiasm. Try to go with the flow rather than insisting on a solid plan early today. It’s a better strategy now with the Sun and Neptune in a minor challenging aspect. You may feel temporarily and just a little out of step with those around you. While it’s tempting, getting out of a particular responsibility can be too costly in the long run. However, life seems a little easier if you take a break from the routine. Save critical decision-making for later. If you do something to help someone out, do what you believe to be fair instead of going over your limits and feeling resentful. Later today, you might be able to unload some of your concerns and problems with a helpful friend.Scorpio
As much as you’d like to move your plans or goals forward, some uncertainty can slow things down today, dear Scorpio, which can be a good thing. Career matters, responsibilities, or structure and order can be stronger draws these days with the Sun and Venus in your solar tenth house. Today, your attention to personal interests, daily affairs, and personal life can compete. You may want to do it all when you don’t have the time or the energy. You’re probably better off nurturing your imagination than seeking definite answers for now. Strive for objectivity, even if you need to find it through someone else, before making any substantial commitments, or delay them for a better time. Exchanging pleasantries and enjoying the flow rather than focusing on the actual outcome is your best bet. As the day advances, it becomes far easier to manage. There’s a stronger spirit of cooperation and creativity.Sagittarius
Plans may not be coming together in the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius, but it’s likely only a tiny speedbump. Pushing to find a resolution to a problem is unlikely to work out, but pulling back from the situation might do the trick. The Sun and Venus in your spirit sector encourage spontaneity and exploration these days, but early today, you can feel a little torn or temporarily demotivated. Finding a balance between responsibility and pleasure can be difficult, as it may involve cutting out some activities or toning things down, but it’s likely for the best right now. The gap between your wishes and reality may seem more prominent than usual, but don’t waste time on discouragement. Instead, give yourself time. As the day advances, you come into your own. Friendships can help take your mind off heavier subjects.Capricorn
Aim to be selective with where to direct your energy, dear Capricorn, and plan to rest or strengthen yourself instead of pushing something that isn’t ready to move. Transits in the first half of the day favor enhancing or improving existing resources rather than beginning new endeavors. There’s a tendency to feel a bit out of the loop temporarily. Doing some deep thinking can be productive, but getting to the heart of a matter can be tricky for now. You’re sensitive and may not be ready to learn everything about a situation. The Moon spends the day in your sector of joy, and you’re inclined to seek a fun diversion. Fortunately, as the day advances, relaxing and enjoying yourself is far more manageable.Aquarius
Feeling a bit deflated is temporary, dear Aquarius, and can be a sign that you need a break or timeout. The Sun and Venus are encouraging your social, involved side these days, but early today, your need for reflection or independence seems to compete with these drives. Promises and plans formed now may go by the wayside later, and you could be tempted to go the easy route. Rather than committing, it may be best to put things on hold until you figure them out. The important thing is that you’re stretching your mind and entertaining new ideas. Seek ways to balance and manage your life without undermining your happiness. Adjustments or time to reconsider may be necessary, and it becomes far more natural to enjoy yourself later today. There can be helpful conversations and more enthusiasm for your personal interests.Pisces
There is a particular focus on work or health goals these days, dear Pisces, but a hiatus may be in order in the first half of today. In fact, you may feel a little demotivated or uncertain just for the time being, and this is simply a sign that there are more angles to consider before moving on. Or, you may not have paid enough attention to your emotional or spiritual goals, and it’s time to catch up or catch your breath. Stepping to the side could be better than confronting or challenging. This allows you to observe and redirect plans or your energies if needed. Later today, it’s time for thinking and feeling in bigger terms than usual, and it comes far more naturally to look forward.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
