Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Saturn in your sign is clashing with your ruler, Mars, in your partnership sector today, dear Aries, and this can produce a conflict with a significant someone or a general sense that people and circumstances around you seem to be chaotic or out of your control. Others may seem to push and prod you, or they pull your attention away from what you want to do the most. While you may need to draw boundaries, it’s better to tone down criticisms. Be cautious not to be overly restrictive with people you care about. It’s also best to recognize where you may be pushing your limits. Aim to open up to emerging opportunities to exploring new ideas and interests. Studies or projects can show signs of progress, or they can motivate you to do something new and bold. While the excitement of innovation sticks with you, you’re also drumming up to take care of business.

Taurus

Your approach to getting things done can be different but highly effective at the moment, dear Taurus. You’re inspired but practical-minded. As the day advances, a Mars-Saturn opposition occurs along the service axis of your solar chart. Circumstances are likely to alert you to areas of life where you’ve been moving too quickly or where you haven’t been considering what’s best for you in the long term. The challenge may be to convince yourself that you have the right to relax! Consider ways to incorporate more time in your routine for attention to your inner world and mental health. Pressures to perform and excel are with you, but you need to make regular time for rest. While it can seem that the momentum is breaking, it’s more likely a necessary slowdown that’s also quite temporary. It’s about taking care of your emotional life and inner world, even in the face of pressures and demands of the outside world. Clear your mind of guilt and avoid focusing your frustration on minor problems.

Gemini

Others admire you for your unique style and perspective today, dear Gemini. You can feel quite inspired to do something new or different. However, with a Mars-Saturn opposition today, you might feel stifled creatively, temporarily blocked, or confined. Expressing yourself freely doesn’t come easily, or it brings on negative feedback today. Instead, there could be challenges related to a group endeavor or friendship, especially if you are attempting to steer them in a different direction. Whatever the case, the matter requires patience. You’ll do best if you can pace yourself and deal with whatever delay or rule needs your attention first and foremost. As well, aim to recognize the need to focus on your current responsibilities before seeking out new horizons. Concessions made now can ultimately help you reduce stress and pressure.

Cancer

There can be much activity in your personal or home life these days, dear Cancer, with Mars transiting your home and family sector. Mars forms complicated aspects today, however, and you may be facing a snag in your plans or an obstacle in your path. This may take the form of a responsibility that puts your domestic plans temporarily on hold. Or, disapproval plays with your motivation or enthusiasm for a project. It can be tempting to fight against restrictions, but slowing down may serve your long-term interests better. You might also discover that you can enjoy some active downtime, and this can be a way to satisfy both your need for rest and action! You can feel compelled to put a problem behind you, and, with some patience, it can be a good time for breaking through an emotional barrier or for resolving a home-related problem.

Leo

You could be pretty excited to move a personal interest forward, dear Leo, but a delay or slowdown may seem forced on you now. With a Mars-Saturn opposition active today, the more you push, the more resistance you meet! A discouraging remark or criticism might throw off your thinking, or an obstacle can appear, slowing you down. Be cautious of focusing on the short term rather than the big picture. If you feel hemmed in or stifled from expressing yourself, consider that the actions you take to correct things may very well redirect your attention to essential details. Or, slowing down helps you center yourself. Scattering your energy is not the answer, as it may lead to doing many things, but none of them especially well. However, you could feel quite inspired by collaboration. Someone may encourage you to pursue a dream.

Virgo

Given a bit of space to think and follow your hunches, dear Virgo, you can be remarkably resourceful and enterprising. However, purchases, projects, or business pursuits may face a restriction or obstacle as Mars opposes Saturn. Instead, this aspect can aggravate a disagreement. Obligations and responsibilities tend to emerge, and these slow you down. Ultimately, it may be better for you to do so. Exercising patience can have its rewards, although they may not yet be apparent. Accept that you may not be able to charge ahead with your plans just for now. While you might be craving quick and easy decisions, today’s energies can have you wondering what your next move is, or you may struggle with weighing your options for far longer than feels comfortable. It’s best to look for the middle ground. As well, there are real benefits to putting in the effort to build and develop something important to you. Energy and motivation levels will rebuild and increase the more inspired you feel, so take this time to connect with your intuition and gather your resources.

Libra

You may be facing some disapproval or blocks today, dear Libra, as Mars, currently transiting your sign, opposes Saturn. A special someone in your life can be overly serious, critical, or otherwise in your way, for example. Mars has been pumping you up with its transit of your sign, reminding you of your independent streak, and someone may feel a little left out. Instead, circumstances can seem to block your progress, or you get a general sense that people around you are unsympathetic or party poopers now. Either way, it can be challenging to find a real outlet for your desire to do something new and exciting. A compromise may be your best bet, and slowing down can also help you reorient yourself. If you’ve been taking on too many commitments lately, you’re now likely to feel drained. Look for liberation or inspiration from educational, travel, publishing, or promotional pursuits and goals.

Scorpio

You may break out of a rut or find a release from an old obligation, dear Scorpio, and it feels good to do so. However, as the day advances, a Mars-Saturn opposition can serve as a reminder of certain rules, obstacles, or realities. It’s a time for slowing or buckling down and addressing a small motivation issue. Aim to keep the larger plan or end goal in sight so that you’re not focusing on the monotony of specific tasks. Even though you can be feeling a little stuck right now, and it isn’t easy to see, you are moving forward. Your desire to connect with others is strong, but you have a private streak these days as Mars journeys through your solar twelfth house. It can be particularly difficult to integrate these things right now. Whether or not to take a personal or creative risk may be a question that doesn’t have an easy answer! You might seek some inspiration through a private conversation or an important observation. Treat this as a time for reflection that can ultimately redirect you in personal and professional areas.

Sagittarius

You may be looking for friendship and expansion opportunities, dear Sagittarius. Still, today’s Mars-Saturn aspect asks you, in some manner, to slow down. There can be a sudden reminder of responsibilities or obligations that need your attention, slowing down your social life, or disapproval from someone in your life that has a similarly discouraging effect. You may feel torn between your personal life and demands from friends or associates. Reaching a compromise is difficult now, but it is probably the best solution to problems. Impulsive, impatient, and rash moves are unlikely to lead to reward right now. Saturn serves as a reminder not to take on more initiatives before finishing what you’ve already started. Today is best for hard work, attention to detail, and conservative rather than bold moves. You may, however, gain some inspiration from a friend or partner. Slowing down and pacing yourself makes the most sense, allowing your intuition to kick in.

Capricorn

You are not interested in following all the rules to the letter today, dear Capricorn. The things you’re doing or your ideas are particularly inventive. You’re in an excellent position to see where you can move forward with less baggage. However, a Mars-Saturn opposition later today points to the need to slow down to catch your breath, or it may suggest your attention is needed at home or with family. An obstacle can be frustrating as it seems to break the momentum, but it is ultimately good for you, especially if you’ve been pushing too hard. There can be a reality to face or a delay that you hadn’t anticipated. You may very well be torn between dealing with a personal matter and outside demands. Aim to do what truly needs doing and avoid wasting precious time stressing over things you can’t change. While you’d rather jump on opportunities, you may need to pace yourself and wait for real (or better) leads. Bringing more inventiveness to your work or routines can be rewarding now, and you could find support for your projects and work efforts. It may be that the more creative or inspiring your work, the more productive you’ll be right now.

Aquarius

Energies today stir your desire for new pleasures and experiences, dear Aquarius. You could be freeing yourself from a problem or burden or actively pursuing a desire or goal. Still, today’s Mars-Saturn opposition across your communications sectors can produce a delay or frustration. Something may discourage you or slow you down. With this energy active, the more you push, the stronger the resistance! You might be tied down by mundane activities, correcting errors, errands, chores, and other responsibilities that you hadn’t anticipated or put out of your mind. If you’ve been neglecting problem areas, they may demand your attention now. While today’s obstacles seem to break the momentum, the workarounds that result can draw your attention to areas that need correcting. Look for a balance between freedom and comfort, even if it means reducing or cutting out some activities. As well, certain people can be inspirational and supportive now.

Pisces

You’re craving a change of pace, dear Pisces, and exciting feelings and tastes motivate you. Today’s energies certainly stir your mind and desire to put your ideas into action. You’re in good shape to connect, study, and gather information. Your unique ideas will come across more clearly, and reaching out can bring interesting people into your life. With Mars and Saturn in opposition, however, responsibilities or duties can seem to pull you out of your private world, bringing you back down to earth as the day advances. There can be a clash of values, boundaries, or problems related to possessiveness in a relationship. Common sense and instincts can be at war, but after wrestling with an issue, you may very well discover that you can wait for something a little longer. If you’ve been pushing your boundaries, the need to pace yourself becomes apparent. Financial disagreements can also figure strongly now. Consider conserving your energy for what truly matters.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 8th:

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).

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.

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).
