Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Your social life is active, picking up speed, or a central focus these days, dear Aries, but today, the Sun enters your privacy sector for a stay of a month, adding a new layer to your experience. This transit encourages more rest, reflection, and review. It’s a period for tying up loose ends and finishing up old matters. If you’ve been a little too optimistic with new projects, this is a time for paring down. If something no longer works for you, you’ll see it more clearly now. You might consider this a clean-up period on emotional or psychic levels. Healing, restful activities are helpful now, particularly if you’ve gotten yourself into a state of overload. You are looking at the past from a new perspective and paying more attention to your private life. You are more aware of the psychic undercurrents around you during this period. It’s a good time for forgiving others and letting go, if necessary. You may have a difficult time seeing yourself as others see you, and decisions may require more time than usual. However, more than likely, they can wait!Taurus
There is a stronger focus on responsibilities, performance, or career these days, dear Taurus, but today, the Sun moves into your social sector, and some of your focus shifts toward happiness goals. Until March 19th, you’ll crave more interaction with friends, teams, groups, networks, or the community. Instead, it can be a time of special attention to happiness goals, dreams, and wishes. You could be doing more collaborating and cooperating. It’s a time when participating in some way can be satisfying, and putting ego needs to the side in favor of group efforts can be helpful. Sharing with others gives you a boost, and you get more satisfaction than usual when your actions positively impact others. In the weeks ahead, you more often answer a desire to branch out. Feeling connected and in touch with your most cherished goals, dreams, and ideals is what this new month-long cycle is about.Gemini
You are focused on feeding your spirit and sense of adventure these days, dear Gemini, but today’s move of the Sun into your career and reputation sector brings a new theme to your life that shifts more of your attention to work, performance, and responsibility. It’s also a cycle of increased visibility and accountability, lasting until March 19th. Changing long-term goals or focusing on achieving existing goals can be in focus now. Career or life-path goals can be on your mind more than usual, and you take more pride in your performance. As a result, your motivation to succeed can strengthen. This transit encourages you to carefully play by the rules and nurture your ambitions. It’s a goal-setting time of year. You may be leading or managing others now, or you could be outshining others in your career. You receive more attention and perhaps a little scrutiny in the weeks ahead.Cancer
The Sun heads into your adventure and spirit sector today, dear Cancer, and will spend time in this area of your solar chart until March 19th. This cycle is excellent for spirited, spontaneous activities and activities that help you promote, share, learn, explore, and discover. Moving out of your routine occasionally is vital to understanding the bigger picture. There can be more positivity in your outlook, actions, interests, thoughts, and conversations in the month ahead. You embrace new ways of looking at problems as you’re tired of dull rules, routines, and information. You seek new horizons on mental levels, and you might discover exciting topics to explore now. Discovering truths and answers to the more significant life questions can be a goal. Still, today begins slowly–you prefer to take your time or you need a little time to rev yourself up. Later today, the Moon enters your sign, and you awaken to a need to connect with the world around you.Leo
The Sun begins its visit to your intimacy sector today, dear Leo, encouraging an inward focus while it transits this area of your solar chart until March 19th. It’s a time of year when self-transformation is in the spotlight as you seek to grow and evolve. You are motivated to improve your life from the inside out, or intimate connections and sharing or financial and emotional support become a central focus. You want a relationship or project that you can explore in-depth and connect with on a deeper level. During this cycle, investigating, researching, playing detective, and analyzing are all in favor. In the process, aim to be as honest with yourself as possible for the best results since you have much to learn and observe at this time of year. You can feel especially accomplished if you tackle problem areas in your emotional life.Virgo
There has been a strong focus on your daily affairs these days, dear Virgo. While this theme will develop further, the Sun begins its transit of your partnership sector today, and you’re feeling more social. Until March 19th, the Sun here can help you bond with someone special and encourage you to arrive at a better balance in your life, in general. Energetically, it’s not ideal for personal plans. However, you take more pride in getting along with others and finding harmony and balance in your personal environment in the weeks ahead. At times, it may seem that others are directing your life in some way. Of course, to relate well with other people, a strong sense of self is vital. You need to know what you want and what you’re prepared to give. You’re more relationship-focused than usual now, and you’re inclined to seek out one-on-one activities. You are putting more of yourself and your energy into your relationships with others.Libra
There has been a stronger focus on creative and romantic pursuits these days, dear Libra, and while this theme will develop further, your focus is shifting a little toward health and work goals. This transition to a more work-centered period, when routines and practical matters receive more attention, is due to the Sun moving into your solar sixth house today. This transit will last until March 19th, and you’ll pay more attention to the routines and systems in your life that give you a sense of order and control. Bringing more structure to your life and your recent projects can do you a lot of good. It’s an excellent time to take charge of daily routines. The spotlight is on work, service, health, daily affairs, and personal habits or routines. You’re taking more pride and interest in these things, motivating you to improve them. It can be a time for really digging into the details of your life and solving problems. You’re particularly good at adjusting to life’s circumstances and making small changes that help you get on track. You might also work on perfecting skills and projects. Watch for a tendency to worry, fret, and otherwise overthink.Scorpio
There is more introspection in your life these days, dear Scorpio, and your approach to the world is often cautious. However, today, the Sun moves into a more outgoing sector of your solar chart, and you’re beginning to feel connected and ready to share yourself. This is a happy, creative sector of your chart, and the Sun will be here until March 19th. In your own way, this is a time to express yourself creatively or romantically. It’s a cycle that brings out your more playful, outgoing qualities. New avenues for self-expression and entertainment can open up, and the need for positive feedback is powerful. This show-and-tell house is about naturally expressing your talents, abilities, and affections. A stronger urge is with you to create, show others what you can do, experience and enjoy romance, and partake of many of life’s pleasures. This Sun transit is subtly boosting.Sagittarius
The Sun moves into your home and family sector today, dear Sagittarius, beginning a month-long transit. Until March 19th, you take more pride and interest in your domestic life, family, foundation, or closest ties. In many ways, this is a time for anchoring or nesting on a psychological level. It’s not the most adventurous or outgoing cycle in the Sun’s journey through your solar chart, but it’s a valuable period for gaining a stronger sense of self. Soothing and centering yourself with familiar activities now can help you meet the demands of the outside world later. Domestic and personal matters are prominent themes now. There can be much to learn about or through family and close loved ones during this period. It’s a good time to invest more creative energy into your personal life and domestic environment.Capricorn
The Sun moves into your communications sector today, dear Capricorn, and during its stay until March 19th, you crave more connection with the world around you. Your curiosity is more prominent than usual, and your need for mental stimulation motivates you in many areas of your life. You might find that you’re often on the go, even if this is figuratively speaking, and that while you’re not always focused and concentrating, you’re branching out and learning a lot in the process. Expressing yourself more clearly in your communications becomes more important to you in the weeks ahead. You can be excited to share your ideas and opinions. It’s likely to be a busy, engaged period of the year when you want to improve your personal environment, communications, transportation options, and interactions with others. This cycle is more about discovery and branching out than specializing. In truth, you can cover a lot of different ground but don’t always get the chance (or feel the need) to focus.Aquarius
The Sun heads out of your sign and into your practical solar second house today, dear Aquarius, where it will transit until March 19th. This transit encourages a step-by-step, comfortable approach to your life. You’re symbolically moving on and likely to find this cycle grounding. During this cycle, aim to take advantage of this energy to focus on being more emotionally present in various areas of your life. It can also be a time for making the most of your natural talents and abilities. Opportunities emerge that have you taking charge of your income and valuables. This cycle emphasizes matters of comfort and security, including financial affairs. It’s an excellent time to work on feeling more empowered by focusing on what you have, what’s working for you, your blessings, and the here and now. It’s a time when you seek more comfort and security.Pisces
There is a strong focus on the background or hidden elements of your life these days, dear Pisces, and while this theme will develop further, the Sun begins its visit to your sign today, bringing you into the spotlight. This transit will continue until March 19th, leaving you feeling more in charge and capable. You have increased personal presence in the weeks ahead. Aim to make the most of this period by being positive and believing in yourself, as this is the start of a new solar year. During this cycle, you’re likely to feel more and more outgoing and interested in putting yourself out there. You hold more power than usual to make resolutions and changes that truly improve your life. As this cycle begins now, you are regaining your initiative. Still, the Moon spends much of today in your home and family sector, and you’re taking a bit more time to get into the groove of things.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
