Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
The Sun has recently entered your solar tenth house for a month-long stay, dear Aries, raising your ambitions and bringing new energy to your career and public life. You’re becoming more aware of your impact on the world, how you contribute, and how you measure up. Responsibilities to others are highlighted, and it’s time to take charge! You’ll feel the need to make a fresh start after the Solar Eclipse in this sector, occurring in just a few days. Today, you may wrestle with a bit of doubt. The temptation to agree with others is strong now but could lead to misrepresentation or problems later. Alternatively, if someone seems to be undermining you, know that it stems from their insecurities, and perhaps they’re trying to get a rise out of you only to feed their own need for attention. Later today, there is a shift in energy that is more upbeat. It may feel as if life is speeding up enough to pull you out of a funk. You can come up with a fabulous new work-related or money-making idea today or tomorrow, but you could also be wrestling with self-doubt today. You must push yourself past your fears so that you can later embrace new ideas and opportunities.
Taurus
The Sun, now transiting your adventure sector, encourages you to explore and discover new things, dear Taurus. You may be feeling very passionate about something now. In the coming month, you are more adventurous than usual in your quest for experience and learning. Stress levels are lower, likely because you are more interested in the broader picture than you are concerned about the details. However, this very same attitude can find you starting things that you don’t end up finishing, precisely because you haven’t thought through the finer points. Nevertheless, it’s a healthy cycle for breaking the routine and exploring beyond your usual stomping ground. Changes are in the air, and they do seem to be quite positive, but you can be experiencing some self-doubt today. It’s a useful process even though it can feel a little deflating initially. There are solutions to problems to be found from circumstances today, so do take your time before coming to any concrete conclusions. Your intuition will be back on track shortly. Aim to observe and process, and don’t go along with something if your heart isn’t in it. Your confidence increases as the day progresses. By tomorrow, you’re coming up with truly fresh and exciting ideas. There can be a travel, overseas, educational, publishing, promotional, or adventurous opportunity.
Gemini
The Sun just recently moved into your intimacy sector, dear Gemini, bringing a new focus on intimate matters and behind-the-scenes activities into your life for the next four weeks. Some form of self-transformation is likely. If you need to beat a bad habit, this is an excellent time to do so. Don’t be afraid to explore the darker corner of your psyche with the goals of self-discovery and honesty in mind. Nevertheless, there can be some confusion revolving around boundaries in relationships with the Sun and Chiron in conflict today. It’s not an ideal day for bold actions and sweeping decisions or statements. Keeping a low profile until you sort things out is probably for the best. You are aware of so many choices and possibilities that making a decision is almost painful. There can be new information or sudden awareness later today or tomorrow that awakens all sorts of needs in you, and it’s a positive feeling. Something may need to be put to rest or left behind so that you feel refreshed and can begin anew.
Cancer
The Sun has just recently moved into your solar seventh house, dear Cancer, launching a cycle that brings your relationships into high focus. You may need to put some personal goals and agendas aside temporarily as you allow others to take the spotlight in your life. At this time of the year, your path to fulfillment involves honoring an “other” in your life. You have a lot to learn about yourself through your interactions. With the Sun’s square to Chiron today, there is likely to be some level of confusion, perhaps mostly inside you. It’s all expected to lead to something very positive, but it can throw you off temporarily. You will be less hesitant and more determined as the day progresses. Still, important conversations, meetings, or connections are best saved for another day when things are steadier. Take your time while confidence is low and doubts surface. Pay close attention to what appears now, as you may see the fears, resentments, or anger that need management.
Leo
With the Sun’s recent move into your solar sixth house, dear Leo, you’re paying more considerable attention to your daily routines, work, and self-care efforts. You’re taking more pride in what you’re doing and perform better as a result. You might discover new ways of approaching your work or daily routine. Health and fitness matters assume greater importance in your life now, and with a Solar Eclipse in this sector in just a few days, you’re gearing up for making essential changes. With the Sun and Chiron in conflict today, you might feel temporarily demotivated and slightly under the weather just for a short spell. You could be extra sensitive to your surroundings and to what people say. While you sense a need for changes and improvements, a solid plan can elude you. Despite all of this, things are certainly looking up. Towards the end of the day and into tomorrow, it’s time to start pushing boundaries. As long as you don’t absorb too much of the tension around you and focus instead on what you’d like to accomplish, you should have an eye-opening day.
Virgo
You’re in a solar cycle that generally brings terrific energy and inspiration for creative efforts, relationships with children, and romance, dear Virgo. You’re inspired and motivated to express yourself in unique ways. You are especially willing to take chances, and you might pay more attention to personal hobbies or recreation and entertainment. With the Sun’s square to Chiron today, however, you may be dealing with some ambiguities or battling cosmic energy that feels a little clogged. It’s temporary, and it may very well prompt a critical rethink or change. If you’re questioning a recent endeavor or plan, pace yourself in the first half of the day so that stress is minimal. Mixing business and pleasure may not be wise at the moment. Even if doubts are with you, however, allowing yourself to break the routine and to be a little adventurous can help you to overcome some of your fears. If you keep yourself in a rut, self-doubt and hesitance can have you feeling off your game temporarily. Small personal triumphs can be had and enjoyed, and as the day progresses, courage and confidence build. Nevertheless, today’s Moon tends to bring you into your shell, as emotional regeneration is in order.
Libra
The Sun is currently transiting your home and family sector, and your personal life is taking on more significance, dear Libra. Making yourself feel secure and content can be rewarding now. The weeks ahead are excellent not only for connecting with family but also with your own heart. Today, however, others may seem to doubt you, but consider that people tend to be so rooted in their issues that they can’t see others clearly right now. As well, the changes taking place today are ultimately very positive, and in the coming days, you’ll see vast improvements to your relationships, even if it doesn’t quite seem to be the case just yet. Avoid over-explaining yourself, as tempting as it may be — let your good character speak for itself. Tonight and tomorrow, you are likely to come up with some innovative ideas, particularly when it comes to family and home matters. Intimate matters are likely to be healthy, although some discomfort or insecurity may be involved in the process of moving forward. Allow yourself to enjoy others by detaching yourself a little from your fears and insecurities, as sound energy is coming for pushing beyond your usual limits and barriers.
Scorpio
With the Sun rather freshly transiting your communications sector, dear Scorpio, the coming weeks can be busy, sometimes hectic, and focused on learning, sharing, and transmitting. Until January 20th, your focus is on managing your daily life more effectively and communicating with people more frequently. It’s an excellent time to get into touch with others and to handle some of the critical details of your life. It’s time to take charge, and you’ll feel this even more strongly after the Solar Eclipse on the 26th. Even so, people tend to be stuck in their issues today. Fortunately, we’re heading toward some beautiful changes. You may need to deal with some doubt before pressing forward. Just for now, it can be hard to make sense of the signals you’re receiving from others. Do what you can to muster up not only patience but trust that things will right themselves with just a little time. Aim to give yourself some time to recharge after a spell of feeling drained and indecisive.
Sagittarius
The Sun just recently began its month-long journey through your financial and values sector, dear Sagittarius. During this cycle, your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you right now, and what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value are actively on your mind, perhaps driving many of your actions. Today, though, there can be some confusion over boundaries or differences in values that can be frustrating. Solutions seem out of reach, or you’re just too tired to think of them. New insights into your career path, money, and resources or a work project can emerge later today or tomorrow, and these can truly propel you forward. However, getting there can be a bit of a struggle. It’s important not to miss opportunities due to insecurities or doubts. Sometimes, brief periods when you’re downcast or skeptical can ultimately fill you with more courage, mainly because you quickly tire of feeling vulnerable. Take your time with big decisions until you’re feeling back to normal.
Capricorn
The Sun has just recently moved into your sign, dear Capricorn, beginning a month-long cycle that boosts personal power. It’s time for making changes that shape your life and year ahead. Strive to be the best you can be during this solar cycle that emphasizes your personality, personal needs, plans, and manner, which will get you off to an excellent start for the year ahead. After the New Moon Solar Eclipse in your sign on the 26th, you’ll feel even more in charge, although you may feel a little low before you get to that point. Today, the Sun’s square to Chiron suggests a bit of faltering, although things seem to straighten out towards the end of the day. Changes are in the works, and they’re very positive ones, but tend to create some level of confusion at the outset. You might be especially sensitive about family or personal matters today, or you could find that something triggers your vulnerabilities and sets you a little off track. It’s temporary, however. The Moon enters the sign just behind yours, and the coming days require some laying low or extra rest.
Aquarius
The Sun has recently begun its transit of your privacy sector, dear Aquarius, and this can point to the need to go under the radar for a while as you set aside a little extra time to rest, reflect, digest, and process. Until January 20th, you’d do well to review the past year and decide what needs to go along with which improvements you’d like to make. You may naturally withdraw a little from more worldly endeavors, and you require more time for introspection. Communications can quickly go awry as they are misunderstood at times today, however, and it’s best to avoid scheduling important meetings or discussions now. It may be best to save it for a better day when lines aren’t crossing. Even so, it may be a good idea to keep your eyes open to opportunities to get closer to someone, as these are very real right now. Pushing yourself above your insecurities can be worth the effort. A significant change is in the works, and while its benefits are not yet clear, you are likely to receive a boost of confidence nevertheless. Your courage to improve and put frustrating situations behind you is building.
Pisces
More emphasis on socializing and formulating personal goals is in order now for you with the solar cycle that has just recently begun, dear Pisces. Connecting with your need for friends or community can be in focus in the weeks ahead. You’re heading towards significant changes, but today requires some reorientation. You may deal with doubt or fears about what you can handle. This is likely to be a fleeting feeling, and although it may not seem productive, if you examine why you are feeling this way, you might discover something important about yourself. As the day progresses, your confidence is likely to build. Tonight and tomorrow can be empowering. It’s a strong time for new visions and possibilities. There may very well be a new avenue of communication that opens up with someone special, but don’t let insecurities or uncertainty interfere with grabbing this opportunity. Open the airways, communicate, and encourage others to do so as well.
