Scorpio

Capricorn
A Sun-Vesta aspect today encourages a focused, dedicated approach to a project or relationship, dear Capricorn, and this can really pay off. You are putting problems behind you, and it feels great. There continues to be good energy for opening the airways. Good news or advice may be circulating. The Moon transits your home and family sector all day, and the need for time to relax and wind down comes on. This does seem to clash with your recent drive for more activity and exploration. While you should do your best to avoid extra strain, try to take care of your diverse needs without overstraining. Although your confidence has been building, the need for comfort and familiarity can take over now, and it’s a valid one.
Aquarius
Today’s energies are good for applying yourself to a problem that you may have put off, dear Aquarius. Fortunately, you’re more determined than ever to make it work. You can be mainly focused on strengthening areas of your life that aren’t as visible, including relationships with loved ones and your attitude or outlook. Getting a section of your home organized may be part of this. It can also extend to any long-term project that you’ve put on a shelf or didn’t have time for in the past. Support might arrive from behind the scenes, and you can be feeling on top of family or home-related challenges. Still, your recent commitment to getting more time to yourself may need to be put on hold with the Moon’s transit of your busy, connected solar third house.
Pisces
Pouring some of your energy into a worthwhile task can be well worth the effort today, dear Pisces. A project or predicament may deserve a second look now, and this time around, you’re determined to bring it to the finishing line. Still, you can feel a bit conflicted today with the Moon’s transit of your solar second house. It’s usually a comfortable transit that encourages you to stick with what you know for a couple of days. Some predictability can be good for you now. This may feel a bit frustrating initially as if you’re forced to put on the brakes just when you were gaining some forward momentum. While this transit may seem to compete with your need for collaboration and your social urges, it can be helpful to slow yourself down just for a bit. Be gentle with yourself and your activities and projects for best results now.
