Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Today’s Full Moon brings more warmth, emotion, and color to your social sector, dear Aries. The need to assist–or for assistance–can emerge. You are in an emotional frame of mind, but you’re also quite motivated to make changes. It’s a time for making yourself proud, and the bonus is that others are likely to appreciate you as well. Events are such that you are more sharply aware of the vital role you play in others’ lives. Pay attention to what you’re feeling, although give yourself time to make sense of everything. Be careful not to hook yourself to something unless your heart is truly into it, as Mars opposes Neptune at the same time as this lunation. If you feel overwhelmed, know that it’s temporary, and aim to take things step by step, day by day, trusting that you’ll get there! Aim to get more organized, too, since feeling on top of things helps you out in times like these. Still, you could be feeling pressured by others or pushed into a corner when you’re not sure of what you want.

Taurus

Today’s Full Moon occurs at the top of your solar chart, dear Taurus, reminding you of the need to pay special attention to your work or reputation. A call to action is likely now. While you could feel some pressure to perform, don’t push yourself too hard. You may receive extra attention, or you might find yourself in a position to take control of or manage a situation. Get more information before making important decisions, but pay absolute attention to what’s now coming to light. With Mars opposite Neptune also in play, some things are hanging heavily in the air, and they keep you in limbo now. Watch for exhausting yourself, but also the other extreme–procrastination. You may be doing a balancing act now! Fluctuating energy levels are likely about inspiration, and pausing or taking a timeout can help you regain it. If you’ve been working too hard or doing too much for others, you can feel the drain now. It’s vital to balance your life by making more time for spiritual, imaginative, and reflective activities. Otherwise, you might lose some of the motivation and spark you’ve enjoyed recently. If you have a past matter to resolve or disorganization has been an issue in your life, keep in mind that getting over this hurdle can be a real relief.

Gemini

Today’s Full Moon is a call to expand your interests and experiences, dear Gemini, particularly if you’ve been overly focused on your personal life. You may encounter unexpected transportation issues or news, but new ways of getting around can also open up opportunities for you. This lunation brings illumination, color, emotions, and awareness of your needs related to learning matters, personal interest, and mobility. An idea or interest you’ve been working on can take flight. Even so, you can be wrestling with expectations, battling waning enthusiasm, or dealing with some confusion or uncertainty in your social life now. Something up in the air feels heavy or drains you of energy as Mars opposes Neptune. People may be getting the wrong idea, or your desires are conflicting. Because you’re more sensitive today, others’ dramas can feel larger than life. Taking a step back from the action is appropriate until you gain some perspective. Don’t let a lack of direction leave you behind.

Cancer

This morning’s Full Moon awakens a need or desire, dear Cancer, reminding you of overspending or debt, but it can also be a time when you have cause to celebrate. Money or intimacy issues can reach a head and demand your attention. This is a time for reaching a settlement or making changes in the ways you depend on others. This lunation illuminates matters that have been previously hidden or left unacknowledged, and it can play out on the level of finances or shared resources. Something is reaching a head now, and it’s time to address areas of discontent. If you’ve been on a different page with a loved one about your goals or if a lack of direction weighs you down, this can be a time to face the issue. You may be flip-flopping between feeling determined and feeling uninspired, but it’s temporary. It can also be a sign that you need some time to find and connect with your passion, enthusiasm, and inspiration before pressing on. Find healthy ways to rest, escape, and renew your spirit, but don’t let your practical affairs slide too much in the process. Finding a better balance is what this Full Moon is about.

Leo

The Full Moon early today falls in your opposite sign, dear Leo, bringing relationship issues or needs to light. A personal matter may come to your attention, or you get in touch with feelings you’ve kept at bay. This energy can be very revealing! If you’ve been focusing too little on your relationships, they can demand your attention now. This lunation tends to encourage you to reach a compromise or find a better balance if you’ve been overdoing things. There could be an epiphany reached about a partnership or an announcement made. Still, uncertainty is possible. This lunation can stir up intense feelings of discontent as it coincides with a Mars-Neptune opposition. Your mind may be working overtime, or you could be facing some lack of inspiration. You may feel overwhelmed with activities. Pay special attention to the creative and imaginative side of your plans–it’s not the time to ignore your needs for inspiration and motivation. Keep in mind that the lack of a long-term strategy can interfere with your presence of mind, or the opposite–if you’re pinning your hopes on something in the distant future, you may be missing current opportunities. Take time to reorient yourself.

Virgo

Today’s Full Moon could prompt a scramble to meet deadlines or deal with work or health matters, dear Virgo. Demands are high, and emotions are on the strong side. Still, you have a good sense that if you stay on top of them, you’ll be able to make meaningful changes. A work, health, or a matter that you’ve been avoiding may now come to a turning point. You might be seeing the flaws in plans or projects, but this opens you up to a stronger position once you’ve handled the details. Today’s energies are tricky due to a Mars-Neptune opposition. Be especially vigilant if handling money. You can be so passionate about moving forward on a project that you may be tempted to borrow from your future now, which may be cause for regret later on. It’s also best to avoid becoming so distracted that you forget something important or misplace an important item, as your head may be in the clouds right now. Allowing yourself a healthy escape from the routine can be appropriate and helpful now.

Libra

You can experience a romantic revelation or a powerful desire to create something unique with today’s Full Moon in your sector of joy, dear Libra. Your personal life and projects deserve some special attention. Feelings are full and rich, and hard to ignore! This lunation brings illumination to your life regarding friends, personal goals, and creative pursuits. Others may be seeking you out and vying for your attention. Letting something go can make room for a rush of new creative juices to flow. Don’t speed ahead just yet, but don’t ignore the calling to explore your needs and feelings, either. This Full Moon occurs around the time of a Mars-Neptune opposition, which can bring on a whirlwind of emotion. If you find that you’re suddenly running out of steam, it likely has to do with uncertainty in the relationship department or a temporary lack of inspiration. Mars in your sign can get you going these days, often for your benefit, but sometimes it’s a little too easy to get all riled up. Today, you may find it challenging to pursue your desires directly. Discerning between fact and fancy can be difficult. Finding a middle ground is the key, but can be challenging today when all of the energy you’ve been feeling seems to evaporate and you feel sluggish. This is temporary and suggests a need for inspiration. You may need to let go of the desire for others to be transparent about their intentions, just for the time being, and to back down and give people space. Relying on yourself may be best at the moment!

Scorpio

Today’s Full Moon is likely to encourage more attention to your personal life, family, or needs for quiet, safety, and familiarity, dear Scorpio. Be sure to recharge so that you can give other areas of your life your best. If you’ve poured too much energy into your responsibilities to the outside world, circumstances now remind you to find a balance. If you’ve been overextending yourself, you need to find ways to get more downtime. You may benefit greatly from catching up with family or your own heart. Emotions are rising today, and you may need new dreams or a fresh perspective to inspire you. There can be ambiguous desires and situations today with Mars in opposition to Neptune. You may need to manage uncertainty in your social and work worlds. A chaotic or uncertain work or health environment is likely at the root of your frustration. It can be difficult to be clear about your direction, but it’s important to get things done even in the absence of clarity. If you find yourself questioning your motivation or enthusiasm for a particular endeavor, consider ways to bring more imagination into a project to revitalize it. Aim for moderation today, as errors tend to happen when we go to extremes.

Sagittarius

Today’s Full Moon can bring deadlines, errands, and paperwork to your attention, dear Sagittarius. If you’ve been neglecting your daily responsibilities, now’s the time to bring more balance back into your life. This lunation might also, or instead, pull up emotions that you’ve pushed to the side. Something previously hidden or only “in the works” comes to light. A change of plans or a sudden awareness of an outstanding matter can lead to a scuffle of activity. This can also be a day for especially meaningful personal revelations. Themes related to learning, communicating, commuting, and connecting are in focus. The day holds exciting but chaotic energy as this Full Moon occurs around a Mars-Neptune opposition. Imagination is powerful, and maybe going a little too far temporarily, and mixed signals can abound. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by a project, it may be better to take some time away to refresh yourself, which can give you the chance to get in touch with what you truly want and need. Areas of neglect, waste, or overestimation in your life can become more apparent. Handling these things can help boost your confidence and clear your conscience. Be on the alert for overindulgence or a tendency to accumulate too much–these things can leave you feeling behind. Ultimately, you’ll feel stronger for learning which dreams work for you and which may be undermining you.

Capricorn

Today’s Full Moon turns your attention to a money matter or your resources, dear Capricorn. It’s a time for recognizing your needs, and with more clarity about your feelings, you’ll have a better idea of your next step. There may be a financial breakthrough or a quick purchase, but whatever does occur, it seems out of the blue and unexpected. Opportunities to advance business and financial goals can arise now. You might also be asserting your independence in surprising ways. Situations may serve as a nudge to get on top of your finances. A more intense desire for security and comfort can also be a motivator. Show your abilities in the best possible way, as others are noticing. Still, with this Full Moon and a Mars-Neptune opposition today, you can be see-sawing. Ideally, you eventually get to a better balance as you see areas of imbalance more clearly! Aim to be easy on yourself today. Improving your domestic life or living conditions can be a priority, even if it seems you don’t have the time to do so. Consider that ambiguities in your living situation can leave you feeling uncertain in other areas of your life. If you’re feeling without an anchor or game plan, let this feeling redirect and reorient you in useful ways. Getting more acquainted with your needs and wants will help! Seek ways to inject more imagination into your projects or goals and deal with issues surrounding the home or family life that are leaving you feeling insecure or guilty. Another potential hurdle is waning enthusiasm, leading you to seek out new sources of inspiration if the usual ones are no longer satisfying.

Aquarius

Today’s Full Moon occurs in your sign, dear Aquarius, and feelings bubble up to the surface. A relationship matter might come to light, or a personal revelation is possible. You’re likely to have epiphanies about your needs, especially if you’ve been overly focused on others. This lunation can bring an epiphany or culmination of sorts. There can be quite a bit of attention coming your way. Emotions that surface now can point you to areas of your life that need more tender loving care. Because emotions run high right now, you may want to sort them out before taking action. As well, you may battle feelings of restlessness or a need for change that’s hard to direct, as not only the Full Moon but a Mars-Neptune opposition seems to pull up areas of discontent. Confusing circumstances could surround certain communications, or you may be waiting for an answer and feel in limbo. You may feel overwhelmed with a recent project or endeavor that you’ve taken on. Seek healthy escape routes that feed a need for fantasy, adventure, and idealistic thinking. Find alternate sources of enjoyment and inspiration temporarily until you regain your momentum.

Pisces

Today’s Full Moon can awaken you to feelings and emotions you’ve kept at bay, dear Pisces, and it can pull up strong intuition and hunches. This lunation happens in your privacy sector, and a lot may be going on in your inner world. You might come to an important realization related to work or health on mental, emotional, and physical levels. If you’ve been ignoring your need for more rest, solitude, and time to catch your breath, then circumstances might push the matter! It’s a time to consider ways to regenerate and strengthen emotionally. You can be quite sensitive to imbalances today, and this Full Moon is complicated as it happens at the time of a Mars-Neptune opposition. These influences can lead to a desire to escape, or they can be a real distraction from what you’re doing. Be more vigilant with money and sharing since it’s hard to see things clearly temporarily. Take care of your valuables, and consider ways to improve your life and relationships through more imagination, romance, and gentleness. Consider that you’re more sensitive than usual to the moods of people around you–if you’re not aware of this tendency, you can end up taking on emotions that don’t entirely belong to you!

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 9th:

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).

URANUS

URANUS IN GEMINI

(1942 – 1949) It is important to note that Uranus spends a long time in each sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation rather than the individual.

Original and inventive ideas may spring to life.

NEPTUNE

NEPTUNE IN ARIES

(1861/62 – 1874/75) It is important to note that Neptune takes about 164 years to make a complete cycle, spending about thirteen years in each sign.

This generation have the potential to be spiritual pioneers. They take risks in exploring the mystical realms. This generation may also boast many pioneers in the arts.

You belong to a generation which is able to bring about social change. You are part of the changes in government and the approach to human rights. Spirituality and the occult are given more credence or power. Alternatively, some of your generation will choose to drop out of the system.

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. Therefore the interpretation of Pluto in its sign applies to a generation rather than the individual. This is the generation of worldwide co-operation. 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).
