Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Today is good for nurturing and enjoying your ambitious side, in addition to embracing your deeper feelings and attachments, dear Aries. Still, a Mercury-Neptune opposition suggests seeing things through the lens of wishful thinking. Shortcuts taken now can be regrettable and possibly costly at a later date. Conversations can be vague or even guilt-ridden in spots. Precise and factual reasoning can suffer, and your mind tends to wander. Even so, it’s imaginative, and given the right place for your musings, you may very well come up with creative solutions to problems. If you can find healthy ways to get away or mix up the routine, do so. Your mind tends to take some detours, which can certainly be interesting, but not excellent for concentration. Stretching the truth and coverups are best avoided now, even though they can be attractive. Seek a better balance between work and rest.Taurus
An opposition between Mercury and Neptune can signal a need to pull back from overthinking things, dear Taurus, but it can also confuse matters, so try not to bank on what you see today. Do your best to avoid misunderstandings and double-check your facts. It’s also a good idea to seek out harmless ways to engage your imagination and need for a bit of magic or drama in your life. Watch that you don’t get carried away by an idea or vision that takes you too far away from what needs to get done, but do find ways to satisfy your itch for new options and possibilities when it’s appropriate to do so. In fact, it’s a good day for taking it easy and engaging your imagination. There can be a strong connection with the past and your memories, possibly stirred by a chance connection.Gemini
You can be especially fascinated with a workable idea, project, or mystery to solve today, dear Gemini. It’s a fine day to seek some inspiration. Nevertheless, something you say or do could be relayed or interpreted in the wrong way, with your ruler, Mercury, in opposition to illusory Neptune. Uncertainty about your career or goals can interfere with the enjoyment of the moment. This transit does suggest all that is imaginative, fantastic, or spiritual engages you now. Aim to seek people you trust for opinions on your more practical affairs, but look within for answers to matters of the heart. You may feel that you have too many choices right now, and, likely, you’re not truly ready to come to a solid conclusion. If that’s the case, then wait things out. Take the time to reflect–you’re likely to find that giving things more time is helpful.Cancer
Your imagination may be working overtime today, dear Cancer. Mercury and Neptune form an opposition, making it hard to concentrate when you need to most, and possibly disrupting your routines. You can have a hard time arriving at definites and conclusions. Let your imagination go, but do so at the right time and place and not so far that you set yourself up for a letdown. On the one hand, the desire is to obtain information and make sense of something, but on the other, the tendency to break it apart is powerful. It’s not the time for critical detail work or beginning entirely new ventures. Watch for misunderstandings in your conversations. Otherwise, transits now encourage you to reach new heights, dream, and aspire.Leo
You can thoroughly enjoy observing others and drawing interesting conclusions today, dear Leo. While you might enjoy a mystery, some things can be downright confusing today with a Mercury-Neptune opposition in play. As much as you’d like to be gung-ho, you may end up on the fence. For best results, be especially vigilant when it comes to lending and spending today. New ideas can be imaginative but may need more attention to detail before passing the test. It’s a time for checking and double-checking your work if you’re dealing with facts and figures. It’s also important to avoid over-committing, which applies to your spending, relationships, friendships, work, and obligations. Let your imagination loose when it’s appropriate to do so, as you’re likely to see more possibilities than you might on a regular day.Virgo
Mercury in your sign these days is most excellent for mental tasks, dear Virgo. Today, it reaches an opposition to Neptune, and there could be some drama in your close relationships. You might be frustrated with others who can seem to be unresponsive, indifferent, imprecise, or extremely vague. Situations are ambiguous when you’re seeking definite answers. You might also question whether you’re being lied to today. If it’s possible and appropriate, try to let things be and depend on yourself just for the time being. Watch that you don’t say something that leaves too many things open to interpretation, as people may not be getting it. Explaining, pushing, or questioning will not make anything better at the moment. It may be that you need to wait things out a while longer.Libra
Your imagination can be rewarding in many ways today, dear Libra, but as the day progresses, a Mercury-Neptune opposition can cloud things. It can be challenging to distinguish between what we want to believe and what’s real. This transit reminds you that you can’t always have clear answers — and don’t always need them! A chaotic or disrupted routine or lack of directions can be distracting today, but the detour your mind takes as a result of this can be enlightening, ultimately. Nevertheless, it’s important to watch for miscommunication, and discretion may be in order today. Positively, someone or something can inspire an exciting new idea.Scorpio
You tend to express yourself more spontaneously, from the heart, and creatively today, dear Scorpio. Excitement about love and projects rises. However, an opposition between Mercury and Neptune today can challenge your thinking. It may very well open your mind to see new options and possibilities. However, it can be a little disruptive, and misunderstandings are possible, particularly with friends and lovers. There can be trouble with people overstepping their boundaries, promising more than they can deliver, or with missed connections and off-timing. Rest and reflect for best results! Consider that you’re more vulnerable to delusion or confusion just for now. This is not the time for make or break decisions — give things time before arriving at firm conclusions.Sagittarius
While the day can inspire some imagination, dear Sagittarius, it can be challenging to deal with things clearly and directly. Mercury opposes Neptune, and it’s essential to avoid making important decisions based on your current perceptions. Consider that wishful thinking is likely to strongly influence what you see right now. Others may not be telling you all you need to know for the time being, or they could be misinformed. Distractions are plenty, and the chance of misunderstandings runs high today. Dreaming up new possibilities can figure strongly, but it’s not the time to commit to something substantial. You’ll need some time to process what you see today, particularly when it comes to your home, family, and personal life. This way, you won’t jump to premature conclusions.Capricorn
Today’s transits can help you detach yourself a little from heavier topics and demanding activities, dear Capricorn, and it’s a nice change of pace. As the day advances, though, keep your wits about you. There is a tendency to gloss over facts, and it’s doubtful that you’ll get helpful information or straight answers from others. With the energy of a Mercury-Neptune opposition, self-deception is also possible. If you can keep things creative and free-form, then you can enjoy the exercise of opening your mind to new possibilities. You could be hungry for entertaining and enlightening concepts, ideas, and fantasies. In the right places, these can be rewarding.Aquarius
Your imagination for making money or improving your practical affairs is in full force today, dear Aquarius. With Mercury opposite Neptune later today, you may not have all the facts or information to go on. Uncertainty about your income, resources, or abilities can weigh on your mind or distract you from doing what you want to do. People and information can be elusive now. The compelling need to organize your thoughts, especially about finances, projects, and relationships, is real. However, others may not be as interested in setting things straight. You may need to take a step back and allow your intuition to kick in before you move forward.Pisces
Conversations with friends or ideas shared with a team or group can be enjoyable today, dear Pisces. However, later today, Mercury opposes Neptune in your sign, and questions from others could awaken the escapist in you. At the same time, you do need to take some time to get to conclusions. Consider whether you can give a little and give others something to go on. You might experience a mental disconnect with someone now. Be careful if you give answers that unintentionally mislead as these may fix things at the moment but lead to long-term problems. While it’s all too easy to become distracted today, it’s also a strong time for new ideas and imaginative thinking. Given some space and freedom, you can come up with something very innovative.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
