Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
With Mars in your sign these days, dear Aries, you can feel a rush of energy to move forward. Today, you may be feeling blocked or held back, however, and it would be wise to slow down to handle your responsibilities before pressing ahead. It can be frustrating if you’re relying on others, as people may not seem to be keeping your preferred pace. It’s temporary, and delays that occur now can help you pace yourself. Today’s Moon transit wants you to put things in order and attend to your duties or practical affairs, and an important errand or detail may emerge. While it can feel that you’re going off track, this can be a good time to do something different–it might even serve to refresh you.Taurus
You have a more vital need for extra rest, privacy, and alone time these days, dear Taurus. You might also get the chance to work through some personal problems. While there can be challenges getting to the root of irritation or anger with the current Mars transit through your solar twelfth house, you can find much to enjoy as you attempt to understand your inner workings. Today, there can be a block to break through as Mars meets a minor challenge from Saturn. Patience is necessary, as pushing may only serve to increase resistance. Transits in your life remind you to slow down and discover what you truly want and need. Still, the Moon moving through your sector of play all day can bring out your more expressive and affectionate qualities. Look for ways to relieve recent stress for best results rather than take on too much.Gemini
It’s a generally busy time for innovative new ventures, friendships, or community, dear Gemini. You can be more passionate about sharing ideas, beginning new projects, and expanding your knowledge and interests. It’s a fine time to explore what you’re doing to keep yourself connected and engaged. However, you can frustrate easily today, as blocks or obstacles seem to slow you down. This can be a blessing in disguise, as slowing down may be precisely what you need to do to pace yourself. With the Moon in your sector of inner security all day, the homebody in you comes to the fore. The Sun in your sign and Mars in your social sector keep you connected, but today, the Moon encourages you to relax and center yourself. Consider that while some issues or desires can feel pressing or urgent, waiting things out may make more sense, working in your favor in the long run.Cancer
Your enterprising spirit is powerful these days, dear Cancer, with Mars at the top of your solar chart. However, today you could face some blocks with a Mars-Saturn minor challenge reminding you to slow down and pace yourself. You may be dealing with relationship challenges that weigh on your mind and require resolution before you feel confident to move full steam ahead. Once beyond these issues, you’re in a perfect place to gain someone’s support or backing for a work or life-path goal, and this feels good. The Moon spends the day in your communications sector, stirring your curiosity and your need for light and easygoing exchanges. Your commitment to getting more time to yourself may need to be put on hold today temporarily.Leo
It’s a generally good time to free yourself from unnecessary burdens these days, dear Leo. Energy levels are strengthening, even if focus is not always your strong point. Energy is a little choppy today, and it would benefit you if you could pay more attention and determine when to push forward and when to hold back. Once beyond a timing problem and with a better ability to pace yourself, promotional or publishing activities can be in better shape. You might come up with clever and novel ways of combining work and learning. Today’s Moon stirs your need for security and comfort, and while you might resist slowing down at first, getting a pleasant, helpful break will ultimately feel good.Virgo
Your ability to manage stress and pressure is stronger these days, dear Virgo, even if you are feeling more sensitive. Today, however, if you’re getting ahead of yourself, you’ll be reminded of time constraints. Today, the Moon is transiting your sign, enlivening your emotional landscape and stirring more vital awareness of your feelings. Moodiness can interfere with career goals or filling your duties. However, good energy is with you for finding some release from stress, primarily through sharing ideas and concerns.Libra
While Mars receives some nice support during its transit of your partnership sector, dear Libra, it faces a small challenge with Saturn today. As such, there can be temporary blocks or conflicting desires that slow you down. Finding a balance between responsibilities and desires can help smooth things over. The Moon is in your privacy zone all day, making it a good time for activities that refresh and replenish rather than wear you out further! You could wrestle with whether to stick with what you know or push out of your comfort zone today. However, it’s a good idea to wind down as you close out a lunar month. Tomorrow, the Moon will move into your sign, and you could feel as if you’re beginning anew on an emotional level.Scorpio
Mars has been visiting your work and health sector, dear Scorpio, and you can be more energetic with your work, organization, research, and self-care programs. Paying special attention to your daily affairs comes naturally these days. Today, a Mars-Saturn minor aspect suggests a minor setback or delay that prevents you from pushing your plans forward. A sudden awareness of uncompleted tasks can take up a lot of your time. While frustrating, it’s temporary and may even help you pace yourself if you’ve been getting ahead of yourself. The Moon spends the day in your sector of networking and friends, stirring your interest in your happiness goals. It’s best to focus on moderating your expectations and actions with so much on your plate.Sagittarius
You have more energy to pour into hobbies and recreation these days, dear Sagittarius. Today, with a Mars-Saturn minor challenge, there can be a hurdle to clear, perhaps to do with attempting to go forward too quickly. However, once you’ve digested the lesson that slowing down is best for you for now, you’re likely to enjoy pacing yourself. Nevertheless, people can be a little stiff, awkward, or withholding today. It may be time to get serious about learning or studying, and you can experience clashes with others as a result. Something reminds you of your obligations, which could initially feel like a drag, but once you accept your responsibilities, you’re likely to handle them more efficiently.Capricorn
This is a generally good time to fix, improve, and otherwise renovate your personal or home life, dear Capricorn, even in little ways. Today, there can be some frustration with a project that isn’t moving fast enough for you. However, slowing down just a little can get you to a better, more productive pace. Still, the Moon encourages you to explore and discover rather than produce. As divided as you feel about work and play, this is a fine time to think up new ideas and possibilities. The trick is to avoid shooting so high that you give up too quickly.Aquarius
This is a time of increased mental activity with Mars transiting your communications sector, dear Aquarius. You express yourself directly and spiritedly. While you can be a little rushed at times, you’re learning things rapidly and passionately. Innovative new projects can motivate and excite you, and you’re mainly focused on putting your ideas into action. Today, you may temporarily step on the brakes if you feel others are pushing you too hard. A Mars-Saturn minor challenging aspect can require adjustments in the ways you relate, especially how you communicate, which may be necessary before moving forward. Fortunately, slowing down can help you pace yourself.Pisces
Building for the future is a driving force these days, dear Pisces, with Mars in your solar second house. It can also be a time of increased sensitivity to how others seem to be valuing you. While the drive to make more money or feel more secure can be strong, try not to push yourself too hard, or you’re likely to meet some resistance now. As well today, a Sun-Moon square can have you caught between two strong needs– peace and a sudden and increased desire for companionship. Ideally, you recognize that settling in on some level today can be helpful right now, and you can then express excess energy constructively.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
