Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

While confidence can take a bit of a dip in the first half of the day, dear Aries, some pleasant, supportive aspects can boost your emotional health, family life, security, finances, and practical matters. Certainly, you might wrestle with going your own way versus maintaining the status quo. If you need more time to truly own a particular path or position, then take that extra time. As the day advances, deep thinking sessions and conversations are excellent for finding solutions, coming to agreements, and enjoying clarity. This is a good time to learn more about your inner workings and motivations.

Taurus

You are in good shape for mediating and connecting today, dear Taurus. Transits are decent for thinking, conversing, and solving problems with a generally cool head. You could be strengthening a friendship or bringing something unique to the group. Today is beneficial for most social activities and relationships, even if there can be some ups and downs. Rebelliousness and freedom issues are themes, but there can be pleasure and spiciness in your interactions. Turning your attention to the outside world or your loftier goals can be just what you need to gain perspective today.

Gemini

Your excellent long-term vision is particularly attractive right now, dear Gemini. Money matters are fortunate today, and conversations can lead to exciting discoveries. You’re willing to support and guide someone now, and it’s appreciated. You feel freer to explore ideas and projects you love. Your intuition is strong for practical matters, business, money, and career. Dreams of where you want to head can figure strongly. You can experience a tug-of-war of sorts between your desire to get things done and your need to relax and blend in with your surroundings today, however. Confidence-building makes the most sense right now.

Cancer

Focusing on the bigger picture helps you frame things in a comforting way today, dear Cancer. You more fully appreciate a friend or group, and your focus can be on positive reinforcement and healing. Your patience with others goes a long way towards enhancing your connections. There can be a real rush of positive, forward-looking energy with you. An entirely new activity can help bring emotional refreshment. There is certainly a desire for something out of the ordinary now, but distractions, schedule changes, or lack of planning can interfere. Crossed wires can cause some minor issues and muddled plans. Still, through small problems, you might discover alternate ways to enjoy yourself.

Leo

Today’s transits boost practical thinking and problem-solving, dear Leo. However, it’s not about details today–it’s more about the big-picture thinking that allows you to see patterns. It’s a time to recognize the positive side of things. You are in better shape now if you have someone to talk to about your experiences, and opening yourself up to someone’s input can be rewarding. Today’s Moon highlights your need to look within or observe rather than push forward with plans. Tensions over money, valuables, and business matters can be part of the day, but as the day advances, you feel stronger and more content. As much as you want to, it can be difficult to get motivated and get going on something independently. Perhaps the best way to handle this is to use extra energy to offer others help rather than wait for something to happen.

Virgo

Today’s transits support positive, forward-looking exchanges or experiences with friends or associates, dear Virgo. A recent issue can appear resolvable after a conversation or a look at the big picture. You’ll have the most success getting through to others if you draw heavily on your powers of reasoning and compromise. Or, opening up with a friend or partner can help take the load off. Good energy is with you for negotiations and partnering. Still, you can be more sensitive to imbalances in relationships than usual. Your desire to go your own way might clash with a desire for company. Aim to identify your feelings and sort them out if they are interfering with clarity.

Libra

Today’s transits get to the heart of a problem, dear Libra. Despite some moodiness, you’re feeling rational while still motivated and passionate. A problem now feels more manageable as your head clears. You want to get your daily affairs into order, and the need to be productive and useful kicks in. You tend to go out of your way helping out, but you might need to delegate some tasks, taking some time for yourself. Avoid over-committing. So that you keep your sense of humor, it may be best to arrive at a compromise and relax expectations if they’re too rigid.

Scorpio

Transits boost communicating and connecting today, dear Scorpio. You’re seeking things that will take you away from the routine, or at least ideas or concepts that excite you mentally. With a conversation or further thought, problems seem far more manageable now. There’s fair-minded and cooperative energy in the air, drawing your attention to the bigger picture, which is helpful at the moment. Conversations help you identify patterns and make connections. Today’s transits excite your desire to express yourself. While the mood is playful and pleasant for the most, there is a tendency towards excess that may need to be tamed.

Sagittarius

You are exceptionally resourceful today, dear Sagittarius, and strategizing makes the most sense. Today is about working through problems by identifying patterns, and applying some logic to a tricky situation is quite helpful, even if this approach doesn’t always work for you. Your observation skills are on target. The Moon spends the day in your family and home sector, and it’s a signal that you need some downtime. It’s a great time to get in touch with any needs and desires you’ve kept at bay or suppressed.

Capricorn

A significant person in your life can help build your confidence or encourage you to do something you’ve always wanted to do, dear Capricorn. Conversations can be motivating. With the Moon in your solar third house all day, you can enjoy the feeling of being busy but might find it hard to know exactly what you want to do with yourself at times. Distractions can be plenty. People can be holding back their true feelings and more sensitive emotions today, so it could be an uphill battle trying to get the information you crave. However, letting things flow may very well lead you to interesting places.

Aquarius

While confidence can be lacking in the morning, dear Aquarius, you’re in generally good shape for work projects, health programs, and responsibilities. As you seek extra meaning in your affairs, it motivates you to do your best or shoot for something bigger. There can be helpful, pleasant, and happy conversations and exchanges that enable you to see the overview or big picture. Sorting things out logically can be most successful. While social worries can impact productivity early today, streamlining comes naturally as the day advances. You could find that letting go of a desire to find all the answers helps you get to a much better place.

Pisces

While early today can be confusing or feature indecision, dear Pisces, the rest of the day can be refreshing for you on mental levels. You might discover a new channel for communicating. Fair-minded, easy-going, and cooperative energy keeps you engaged, and good news or pleasant conversations can figure strongly. In fact, you may be mediating or advising. It can be a good time to express yourself, your feelings, and your ideas. The Moon spends the day in your sign, turning up the emotional volume. Feelings you may have kept at bay demand your full attention now. You can be filled with initiative today, but perhaps a little restless if you’re not sure where to direct your energy.

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on July 26th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. 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).
