Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Aries
Aries

You’re putting more care and attention into your work or routines these days, dear Aries, and it feels good to do so, but some circumstances now can leave you feeling exhausted, making it difficult to give it all you’ve got. Today, you have a stronger inclination to indulge, perhaps because you need a diversion! It may not be the best time to schedule work or activities that require attention to detail. When it comes to work or chores, you might feel you can take on a lot, but keep in mind that energy and time may not match your optimism today. It may be wise to tame expectations of others, as people may be taking you on a bit of a rollercoaster ride, whether knowingly or not. It’s best not to invest your happiness in expectations of others, anyhow. Focus on your own pleasure, and disappointments are less likely to spoil the mood of an otherwise satisfying day.

Taurus

Taurus
Taurus

This can be a playful day in many ways, dear Taurus, with the Moon in your sign until tonight and Venus in your pleasure sector connecting with Jupiter. You’re inclined to joke around or flirt more than usual, as well as indulge your desire to enjoy yourself. There can also be a tendency to overstate or promise too much, even unintentionally, if only to keep the good mood alive. These things can bite back at a later date, of course, so keep your future self in mind! There is also a tendency for moods to swing, and friends and lovers may not mix well for the time being. The Moon heads into your resources sector tonight, and this can have the effect of settling your emotions. Still, there seem to be demands coming at you from different directions, and there will be more of this tomorrow.

Gemini

Gemini
Gemini

Jupiter is strong and challenged today and tomorrow, dear Gemini, and while your mood can be quite good, you may not be in any mood to attend to business and practical matters. This influence can also incline you to overindulge or shoot a little too far or high, overestimating what your (or life’s) capabilities. Try to find a balance between your very valid need for comfort and inactivity and your need to tend to chores. Some things can wait, others are better off handling as soon as possible. Also be wary of others’ promises, even if good intentions are behind them, because they, too, may be overshooting. The Moon spends much of the day in your privacy sector, but tonight, it enters your sign, and you can feel an emotional awakening of sorts.

Cancer

Cancer
Cancer

The pursuit of pleasure today can quickly reach into overboard territory, dear Cancer, and this doesn’t have to be a problem if it’s needed, but do keep your future self in mind! Jupiter is strong but challenged today and tomorrow, and this can lead to some feelings of discontent or restlessness. What you do with these states of mind can make all the difference. They might motivate you to make improvements, for example, or to express yourself creatively. The Moon spends much of the day in your social sector, further reinforcing a need for recreation and freedom from material concerns now. Tonight, the Moon begins its transit of your privacy sector, suggesting a need to go within and rest or recoup your energy. This doesn’t have to be an official escape or retreat, but it makes sense to make a little more room for downtime for a couple of days.

Leo

Leo
Leo

We have Jupiter strong and challenged today and tomorrow, dear Leo, and if you over-schedule, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment without realizing it. There is a tendency now to attempt to keep a good mood alive by feeding it with activities or promises, and expectations, both of ourselves and others, can be through the roof. You might also tend to putter around rather than produce, and while this is fine here and there, you might plan accordingly rather than take on something too ambitious now. Mind you, if you’ve prepared well, this can be a time for pushing your usual boundaries just a little. Or, any discontent you might feel now can fuel your motivation to make changes. Family relations can be stimulating today, but too much might be made of small things. The mood is open, but a little undependable. The Moon moves into your social sector tonight, further encouraging a break from material concerns.

Virgo

Virgo
Virgo

You may want to watch for taking on too much today, dear Virgo, with Jupiter in challenging aspect. This is also true of tomorrow. With Jupiter in your communications section this year, you are excited about learning new things or enjoying diverse personal interests. However, if you do too much at once, you run the risk of becoming overwhelmed and abandoning ship, which can be a tendency now. Even so, your mind is a sponge these days, and even if you’re gathering bits and pieces, it can lead to something quite big and successful, so keep your mind open to learning. Today’s tendency to overestimate what you can do or take on should be watched. If you feel frustrated with life as it stands or you’re annoyed by a chaotic environment now, this discontent could fuel your motivation to make valuable changes.

Libra

Libra
Libra

With Jupiter active and challenged today and tomorrow, dear Libra, it’s a good idea to remind yourself that having more of something will not necessarily make you happier. The temptation to overdo pleasures is strong, and while splurging can be good for you from time to time, it may stimulate a feeling of regret today. With Jupiter in your solar second house these days, you are particularly drawn to objects and situations (perhaps even people) that you believe will make you feel more comfortable and at ease. However, simplifying your life, or turning to tried and true comforts, is likely to be more successful. The Moon spends much of the day in your intimacy sector and then emerges in your adventure zone tonight, pulling you up and out of your subjective frame of mind. Tonight, the desire to free yourself from negative attitudes or self-limitations is particularly strong.

Scorpio

Scorpio
Scorpio

With Jupiter in your sign this year, you seek out a little more from life and have more confidence to explore, dear Scorpio. When Jupiter is challenged, though, as it is today (in a minor way) and tomorrow (in a bigger sense), you may experience some restlessness or insatiability. Watch that you don’t overdo or overstate in an effort to overcome boredom, particularly in your relationships. Otherwise, this transit isn’t difficult. It can stir up just enough discontent to motivate you to make improvements, in fact. Also today, there could be some ups and downs with expectations related to your social life or creative projects. The Moon heads into your intimacy sector later today, and for a couple of days, you’re inclined to lay low. You’re in deeper touch with your feelings and desires now, and this can help with the Jupiter transits that otherwise might lead you astray.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius
Sagittarius

With Jupiter currently transiting your solar twelfth house, dear Sagittarius, there are ample rewards and benefits from getting some downtime and solitude or from your private life these days. Coming into influence today, Venus forms a minor challenging aspect to Jupiter, and tomorrow, the Sun will challenge this planet of plenty (which happens to be your ruler). As such, your desire for retreat, leisure, and escapism may face some obstacles or interfere with other life departments. Jupiter will move into your sign in November, and this will pull you right out of your shell. For now, you may need to process events and keep to yourself, and it’s mostly for your benefit, as long as it’s not overdone. Striking a balance will be a challenge now. The Moon moves into your partnership sector later today, and this begins a brief transit, lasting a couple of days, in which your social life or need for companionship is strong.

Capricorn

Capricorn
Capricorn

The Moon continues its transit of your playful solar fifth house today, dear Capricorn, but later heads into your sector of work and routine. As such, you’re likely to experience a shift of focus from leisure to taking care of business. Mind you, Jupiter is strong and challenged today and tomorrow, which tends to lead to some wastefulness, over-extension, or laziness. This year, Jupiter has been transiting your solar eleventh house, bringing rewards and benefits to (or through) your social connections, business dealings, and progressive endeavors. This transit lasts until November. Today, there can be some restlessness stimulated or a tendency to go overboard in these areas. It’s a time for feeling optimistic, but of course if this is taken too far, judgment goes off track along with it. Under these conditions, it’s better not to take on additional commitments or break outside of your usual boundaries too far.

Aquarius

Aquarius
Aquarius

While the Moon continues to encourage you to seek out refuge today, dear Aquarius, later today, it begins its transit of your playful solar fifth house, stimulating a desire to share yourself. This year, your ambition, career, or life path are stimulating elements of your life, and often quite pleasant! Today, though, you may have so many wants and needs that you don’t know where to begin. This is due to a strong and challenged Jupiter. Perhaps the most significant potential problem with it is the tendency to promise too much, borrow from your future, or over-commit in some other way. As long as you work around restlessness and over-reaching, the day can be enjoyable. In fact, the discontent you feel now can prompt a nice change or improvement. You could have a cleansing conversation about a personal matter.

Pisces

Pisces
Pisces

With Jupiter strong and challenged today and tomorrow, dear Pisces, you’re likely to feel pleasantly emotional and connected, although you may need to manage your expectations or feelings of restlessness. This is especially the case in a relationship. In fact, you may be questioning the support you’re receiving. What can help is consciously finding ways to feed your desire for knowledge, variety, and activity in a manner that builds you up and benefits you. The usual fare is not likely to satisfy today! The Moon continues its transit of your communications sector, further increasing your need for mental stimulation. Chances are good you’ll find a lot to be interested in today if you seek out the best in what’s before you.

Date & Time: 5 Aug 2018  9:31 pm

There can be a boost to our intimate life, creative impulses, and self-understanding. Events occurring now might involve some kind of karmic repayment or benefit. We could discover new information, hidden information, or a lost item. This is a time for recycling – seeing new uses for old items. True feelings come to the surface.

Description: Transiting Neptune Opposition Transiting Ceres
We might experience disappointments or disillusionments regarding our emotional support systems. There can be waning motivation, lowered energy, or personal problems that interfere with our ability to nurture and care for others, or we could feel unappreciated for our efforts to care for others. Our support system, home, or family life may be confusing, up in the air, or otherwise lacking/disappointing. We may need to make boundaries clear if we feel taken advantage of. We might also consider adjusting our expectations of others and avoid putting too much pressure on others through our own neediness, for example.


 

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes

 

Today’s Emphasized Signs of the Zodiac

 

TAURUS STRONG

Stable and enduring, strong values, unyielding, earthy, acquisitive, strong desires. Can be stuck, stubborn, overly possessive, self-indulgent.

LEO STRONG

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

 

Today’s Elemental Balance

 

EARTH STRONG

Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.

AIR WEAK

We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.

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. 

FIXED STRONG

The Fixed signs are: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. We are thinking about the long view, seeking out security and stability rather than change. We may be committed, focused, resistant to making changes, and stubborn.

 

Today’s Lunar Phase

 

LUNAR PHASE: THIRD QUARTER

Moon from 90 to 45 degrees behind the Sun. 

We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible.

 

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 5th:

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

THE MOON IN TAURUS

There can be fears now of not being competent or effective enough to meet our responsibilities, or we could find it hard to strike out on a unique path, again due to fears or insecurities.

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).
