Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

You’re bringing creativity to your personality or more imagination and fun to your life today, dear Aries. There can be a boost to your personal appeal now, and it’s a good time to heal a relationship, particularly as pressure or expectations drop. Projects come together nicely. Doing something for the intrinsic rewards makes sense now, and your spirits lift as you do. Good advice can be exchanged, but support can be expressed in nonverbal ways quite effectively now as well. You’re drawn to lively settings and people, as well as interesting ideas. It’s a beautiful time for branching out, connecting, and exploring different ideas. Later today, the Moon heads into your home and family sector, encouraging you to center yourself emotionally rather than exert yourself by taking on the unfamiliar. It’s a good time in the Moon’s cycle to build or restore your energy.

Taurus

Good energy is with you for a feeling of growth within the family circle or with loved ones, dear Taurus, and generous care and acceptance are themes. While early today may not be ideal for hard commitments, rules, and pressure, it’s powerful for intuitive rapport. Actions are colored by dreamy and spiritual elements. It can be a good time to take a break or a refreshing interruption. As you help and share, you naturally draw resources your way. The Moon heads into your communication sector later today, and you could bring others together with your advice. You might discover creative ways to interact with the people you spend extra time with, although you may need to deal with some level of disorganization or a feeling of overwhelm before you arrive at this state.

Gemini

Today is good for doing what you dream of, or simply for dreaming of what you want to do, dear Gemini. Either way, you’re getting in better touch with longings that you overlook or shelf during the pursuit of regular routines and daily goals. There is added creativity in your words and warmth in your expression. You can be filled with new ideas and good feelings. You’re also especially inspired and motivated. You believe in yourself and your endeavors now. As the day advances, a practical focus takes over. You have a greater awareness of your responsibilities. With the Moon’s move into your resources sector, you’re approaching life with a desire to either settle in and get comfortable or work on building something rather than innovating or starting anew.

Cancer

There can be a subtle understanding between you and someone special today that has you feeling valued and respected, dear Cancer. A good buy or a smart business move can also figure strongly now. Generosity or imagination opens you up to opportunity. Getting some time to yourself is important today, with the Moon continuing its transit of your privacy sector for a good part of the day. It’s natural for you to need more time to reflect, meditate, and detox on an emotional level. Your intuition is working powerfully for you. You can quickly become comfortable with your feelings and all that goes on behind the scenes. As the day advances, you’re bound to see the value of implementing more (or better) rules and boundaries. Orderliness, even if it’s just a little more organization than usual, can be empowering now. As well, the Moon moves into your sign, and you crave more interaction with the world around you.

Leo

Your instincts for business and money matters are on point today, dear Leo, and it’s more about intuition than details at the moment. Do something for the sake of enjoyment rather than for an external reward, and you’ll be in great shape. Intuition is working for you, as overanalyzing or trying to force resolutions doesn’t get results today. The Moon continues its transit of your solar eleventh house for part of the day, and friendships, entertaining, enjoying company, or connecting with your happiness goals and dreams can be in sharper focus. Your sense of community or your desire to interact openly and freely with others is strong. You want to get involved. Still, as the day advances, it becomes a good time to tie up loose ends. Remind yourself that if you move slowly and steadily, you’re more likely to reach your goals in ways that make you proud. You don’t have to do everything at once! You may experience a temporary setback or discouraging situation with the Moon square Saturn, but it’s important to bounce right back. Take extra time for yourself today and recognize that you’ll be far better off in the long run if you do.

Virgo

It’s a powerful day for imagination and creativity, dear Virgo. Intuition is robust, and romantic connections can thrive with good timing. You have loads of spiritual strength to draw upon. You can be a guide, teacher, or director of others right now. While you can experience some dissatisfaction with your routines, you’re quite capable of doing something to change them. In fact, you can be motivated to put significant responsibilities behind you. Your leadership qualities or abilities are in strong form today, or your work and productivity are in focus now. Approval comes naturally, and you’re more aware than usual of your reputation and how it impacts your life. For the most part, today brings responsible energy, and you find it easy to get in touch with your current priorities as a result. As the day advances, you’re more emotionally invested in your friendships or your happiness goals.

Libra

You’re able to find ways to satisfy both your desire to connect with friends and the need to pursue your personal interests today, dear Libra. You can have quite a bit of fun doing regular things with some creativity, which is in abundant supply today. There is a lot of room for daydreaming, imagining, and creatively expressing yourself now. You might enjoy quiet, pressure-free conversations now. Even so, as the day advances, today is quite strong for business matters or strategies to reach your practical goals. The Moon heads to the top of your solar chart and clashes with Saturn and Neptune, and a relationship could make strong demands on your time or attention. You have much you want to accomplish, and it can seem that others are distracting you from your goals. Get over this hump, however, and you can quickly feel that you’re back in the driver’s seat.

Scorpio

This is a powerful day for bringing more imagination and creativity to your communications or your work, dear Scorpio, and perhaps even to your routines or responsibilities. The key is to let go of personal agendas and minor differences in views. If you can manage that, you’ll have a much more pleasant experience. Even so, planting a seed for a dream or goal, particularly a personal rather than professional one, has a good chance of working out down the road. You tend to be popular today, even when you are focused on your own goals. Strategies for your work or health pursuits are sound, and you’re seeking out hidden answers and motivations. The Moon moves into your spirit sector later today, encouraging you to seek more interesting experiences and ideas. Still, its clash with Saturn and Neptune highlights your ambitions for improving your work and wellness. It can seem difficult to fit everything in. As the day progresses, you’ll find it easier to know and focus on your priorities.

Sagittarius

You have more faith in your creative ability, ideas, and talents today, dear Sagittarius, and it’s a mindset that can help open up opportunities. Others might sense this confidence and, in return, put more faith in you. You are bringing more imagination to your leisure activities or hobbies, and you’re sharing your ideas with more flair or fun. Activities that bring emotional rewards draw you in. It can be a great time for communicating and teaming or pairing up to come up with a great idea. The day’s energies are especially supportive of enhancing relationships and getting to satisfying compromises. Your social life improves and your interests grow. Later today, the Moon moves into your intimacy sector, and you crave more depth or focus on what you’re doing. Mysteries and complex problems attract and engage you.

Capricorn

Good energy is with you for being understood and accepted today, dear Capricorn. You’re not afraid to follow your instincts, and this inner confidence becomes you. Solving a mystery or puzzle might figure strongly. There can be good relations with those you share the day with. Interactions promote good feelings about being productive, bringing more order to your life, and attending to your resources. Personal ambition increases as the day advances, but areas of imbalance in your life or relationships can be more evident. It’s a relationship-oriented time as the Moon heads into your partnership sector. You’re more involved and approachable. Your confidence radiates through others, or you’re seeking some balance and a different perspective on your life.

Aquarius

You can enjoy some intuitive rapport with someone special today, dear Aquarius, and pleasant agreements can be in order. You are able to pursue your personal interests and feel involved in a relationship. It’s a good time for activities that inspire and feed your energy, directing your attention to things that matter most to you. Many problems in relationships come from a lack of self-understanding, and you’re in the position to better express your needs and wants. Your feelings are pleasantly dramatic! You’re feeling particularly connected to the people around you and the things you’re currently doing. Others feel exceptionally comfortable in your presence. Later today, the Moon heads into your work and health sector for stay of a couple of days, and the desire to get busy, organize, or tidy up your affairs can be intense. You can be especially focused on straightening out important areas of your life.

Pisces

There is good energy with you today for focusing on some of the intangibles and spiritual or emotional needs that you may have overlooked in recent days, dear Pisces. You may be able to fill some of your duties in an inspired, creative way, for example, or you could be motivated by a special purchase you plan to make in the future. There is a pleasing, compassionate vibe to your interactions. Support may come from behind the scenes. It’s a time when you need (and tend to get) some emotional replenishment. You’re less interested in enjoying new experiences than you are in exploring your feelings today. As the day advances, the Moon heads into your solar fifth house for a stay of a couple of days, serving to draw you out of your shell. With the Moon’s clash with Saturn and Neptune, you could feel somewhat blocked or conflicted. Simplifying makes the most sense, and you might come to a better understanding of someone that helps you feel more productive.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 18th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. Conversely, when an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. As such, 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).
