Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Connecting with someone special on a belief or idea can feel great today, dear Aries. Still, distractions might more easily leave you feeling unsettled in spots today, due to an awkward Venus-Chiron transit. You may have the urge to go your own way, but it might not go over smoothly, perhaps because you’re not entirely behind what you’re doing. Self-doubt can subtly undermine you. There can be disruptions that hint at the need to throw away old attitudes and habits that have limited your growth. Relationships require further understanding, or people in your life need a bit of space. However, it’s an excellent time to take a step back and give yourself a break. The Moon moves into the sign behind yours, where it will stay for over two days. You need some extra time to yourself or simply away from the grind and regular routine. Aim to get rid of excess mental clutter for best results.Taurus
You’re making more compromises these days, dear Taurus, with Venus in your partnership sector. For the most part, you enjoy the process since you crave company more than usual. Today, as Venus forms an awkward aspect with Chiron, you may be torn between the need for another’s company and feedback or approval today, and the desire to go into yourself and make your decisions independently. Doubts can enter the picture, and decisions aren’t very straightforward. Not seeing things eye to eye can result in some disagreements, but ideally, you learn more about your insecurities in the process. You can have a strong need to be productive, although your focus is less on practical pursuits than on happiness goals.Gemini
Insecurities or self-doubt can play with your interactions in spots today, dear Gemini. You may want to keep the peace, but another part of you would much prefer to go your own way. Putting certain decisions on hold may be beneficial until you’re clearer. Through a bit of strain, however, you’re likely to understand your feelings more intimately. Fortunately, you can feel more directed on practical levels, especially as the day advances. Your responsibilities and performance come into stronger focus. You can feel a strong need to manage a situation or put more energy into your practical priorities, and this is where you shine today.Cancer
There can be some disconnects with today’s Venus-Chiron aspect, dear Cancer. Nevertheless, there are opportunities to rise above minor feelings of unrest, particularly if you focus on a work or health initiative that is important to you. Unstable energies on a social level can ultimately invite meaningful change. It’s all too easy to trigger one another’s soft spots today, but you can also aim to learn more about yourself and those you love through these very same vulnerabilities. The Moon heads into your sector of spirit, the higher mind, and sharing ideas as the day advances, where it will stay for over two days. This transit can stir a craving for engaging experiences and a break from the routine or a change of scenery.Leo
What’s not working in your life tend to grab the spotlight in the first part of the day, dear Leo. Aim to keep things even keel since as you become more in tune with your inner needs and tendencies, you make better choices. As the day advances, it’s easier to focus on practical priorities. The Moon heads into your intimacy sector for a stay of over two days. You’re inclined to take things a little more seriously than usual with this transit, especially with a Moon-Saturn alignment. You may want to get to the bottom of a problem, research, investigate, analyze, or pursue an absorbing project or activity. Dealing with a block or responsibility can lead to some critical improvements.Virgo
There may be some hesitation or disconnects today, dear Virgo. A social blunder or mild misunderstanding may need sorting out with a Venus-Chiron aspect. Dealing with others who are unsure of themselves can be frustrating, or if you’ve felt stagnation in your studies or relationships, you may feel more unrest than usual about it now. However, unique opportunities for getting organized emerge now. The Moon heads into your opposite sign for a stay of over two days, and you can be pretty focused on your relationships. The Moon meets Saturn there, and someone might remind you of your obligations. The secret to satisfaction today seems to be balance and patience.Libra
You may face some doubts or hesitation today, dear Libra, temporarily breaking the flow. Misunderstandings or indecision can slow you down as Venus forms a minor challenging aspect with Chiron. However, as the day advances, you find it easier to focus or take a direct path to your goals. Look for a new way to handle a financial matter. You’re in the right frame of mind for attention to detail as the day advances and the Moon joins with Saturn in your sector of work, health, and routines. In fact, you have an emotional need to get on top of your routine or daily affairs.Scorpio
Hanging in limbo is possible in the first part of the day, dear Scorpio, but later today, committing yourself to a goal or focusing on practical priorities can straighten things out. Even so, your interactions with others may need special handling, as people seem more sensitive than usual, particularly as they cling to their own methods and ideas. Some things take a while to evolve and resolve, and you’re in the thick of it, getting rid of excess baggage. As the day advances, the Moon meets with Saturn in your solar fifth house, and some structured leisure or downtime may be in order! You’re attracted to spending time doing productive things, finding it not only satisfying, but soothing today.Sagittarius
Affections and emotions are a little touchy in the first part of the day, dear Sagittarius. You could feel the need for more space. Demands from others can be too much or downright distracting. Aim to identify areas that require adjustments so that you feel more in control. Later today, you find it more straightforward to tune out distractions and direct your energy productively. The Moon meets Saturn in your solar fourth house, and the practical side of your domestic world or personal life captures your attention. As you straighten out your home environment, improved inner clarity can result. Pacing yourself is a good strategy now.Capricorn
There’s a tendency to feel stuck in limbo in the first part of the day, dear Capricorn. Changes of heart can be prominent and distracting. Temporarily, it’s a challenge to see the true value of things, people, and situations. Under these conditions, it’s best not to make sweeping decisions. It’s also a good idea to recognize that others are more sensitive than usual, and you may want to be gentle as a result. However, as the day advances, it becomes far easier to focus and produce. The Moon aligns with Saturn, and there can be an important conversation or obligation to fulfill. A little self-discipline can go a long way as the need to get going on something awakens. Your no-nonsense approach gets results.Aquarius
This can be a time when you’re excited about learning or experiencing new things, dear Aquarius, and this can be a convenient area of focus today. It may be better to zero in on practical matters today, as they’re more soothing and reliable than social ones just for now. Otherwise, someone’s mood swings or changes in plans can disrupt your day. Ideally, if vulnerable areas open up, it can lead you to greater compassion and understanding. Still, you can have a stronger desire to get your practical affairs in order, and paying special attention to detail or your money and personal possessions can be rewarding. You’re in a solid position to take stock of what you have and might need. Rather than focusing on immediate gratification, you are thinking ahead.Pisces
Disagreements about money or core values and respect can be offputting today, dear Pisces, but need not play with your mood. Try not to invest too much into opinions today. With the Moon’s move into your sign today, your initiative and courage are strong. If you can pick something and focus on it, there are benefits to pouring extra effort and attention into a special pursuit today. A Venus-Chiron aspect in play can introduce some doubt, however, and you could find people are a little unpredictable emotionally. Aim to be flexible and to keep your mind wide open now to minimize frustrations. Hopefully, misunderstandings can reveal vulnerabilities that ultimately lead to more self-understanding. At the same time, you may have additional obligations to attend to with the Moon and Saturn joining forces.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
