Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
You’re more sensitive to disarray in the first part of the day, dear Aries, and bringing more order to your life can be satisfying. Later today, the Moon moves into your partnership sector, bringing on a more social theme. Mars and Jupiter in your sign these days encourage your independent, pioneering side, but this Moon transit stimulates a strong need for companionship or collaboration. Getting to a balance is the challenge now. Still, spending more time on someone else’s plans or needs can give you a refreshing break. You don’t have to agree with them, but what others say may get you thinking in new ways.Taurus
The Moon spends the first part of the day in your creative sector and the second part in your work and health sector, dear Taurus. As such, as the day advances, you can feel more interested in taking care of business. Whatever gets you more organized and feeling in charge of your daily life is most satisfying. Transits today challenge you to see two sides of a situation, although there can be times when this puts you in a frustrating state of limbo or indecision. Moodiness can be an issue later today, but you’re also dreaming up possibilities that you wouldn’t normally consider.Gemini
The tendency to play it safe in the first half of the day is due to the Moon’s transit of your home and family sector, dear Gemini. It’s a good time to check in with your feelings and family or spend extra energy on domestic matters. Safety and comfort are good for you now as you refill the emotional well. Later today, you feel more interactive. The desire to express and enjoy yourself takes hold, and your mood is generous. While there can be some restlessness, it’s probably best to allow yourself the luxury of some release from pressure or tension.Cancer
A busy pace and curiosity can be themes in the first part of the day, dear Cancer. It could be that you feel a little too connected, perhaps feeling too dependent on others’ responses. With all that’s going on, it’s difficult getting in touch with your deeper emotions, but this changes as the day advances. Your need for more comfort, familiarity, and quiet comes to the foreground. It’s a time to tone things down and restore your energy. While it may be best to enjoy some release from ambitions, tension, or pressure, it can be tempting to try to do it all. However, dialing things back can help you pull positive energy from comfortable or familiar activities.Leo
The first half of the day is good for getting comfortable or centering yourself, dear Leo. You’re not inclined to linger on problem areas unless the tools for fixing them are right in front of you with the Moon’s transit of your solar second house. Later, the Moon moves into your communications sector, stirring your desire to reach out and make connections or learn something interesting. Aim for a state of being pleasantly busy, as it can be difficult to focus or concentrate later today.Virgo
It may not be easy hiding your feelings as the Moon transits your sign continuing today, dear Virgo. With this transit, even if you’re not verbally expressing them, you’re “wearing” your emotions. It serves you better if you use this energy moderately. As the day advances, you’re more inclined to want to make or build something than to innovate or pioneer. While your emotions steady out with the Moon’s move out of your sign, something can challenge your need to simplify and take care of basics, which can generate restlessness. You may not be sure whether you want to go your own way or lean on others. Aim for grounding, emotionally-centering activities.Libra
A need for time to restore your energy and build up your inner strength continues in the first half of the day, dear Libra. Later, the Moon enters your sign, and emotions need clear channels for expression. You’re especially inclined to reach out to others for acknowledgment. There can be restless moments with the Moon’s opposition to Jupiter, but it’s an excellent time for learning about what you need. There can be trial and error, and you might want to look out for the temptation to overdo or overindulge. For example, you may be attempting to please someone and at the same time striving for independence. However, you’re better off keeping things even now so that you’re not at a disadvantage later.Scorpio
Your emotional focus may be on your social life or connection with a special project in the first half of the day, dear Scorpio. You’re seeking inspiration and nurturance through others or your dreams and hopes. You’re doing more thinking, wishing, and planning today. The Moon moves into your privacy and soul sector, however, and you should do well to pause your busy schedule and allow yourself to enjoy the moment. If you need it, this can be a time to pull back just a little to center yourself emotionally. While you need a detox from the routine, the routine tends to call you in later today. Consider that something has to give if you aim to find a balance between working and resting or attending to physical needs and emotional renewal.Sagittarius
You’re tuned in to your responsibilities and performance as you begin the day, dear Sagittarius. However, the Moon moves into your social sector today, where it will transit for over two days, encouraging you to pay more attention to your happiness goals, connections, dreams, and hopes. Friendly energy takes over! You’re more creative and at ease when expressing yourself. Still, you have much going on in your personal life and can find it hard balancing your interests today. Watch for the tendency to take on more than you need.Capricorn
Energetically, the day can have a somewhat scattered feeling for you, dear Capricorn. However, it can shape up to be quite pleasant. In the first half of the day, you seek some space. Routines are good for you, but so are moments when you break out of them temporarily to do something new and different. As the day advances, you can feel some push to take care of business, take the lead, and perform at your best. It’s a good time to reconnect with your goals and check in with your progress. Still, a lot is going on inside, and it’s challenging to juggle all you want to accomplish. Try to tame the tendency to want to do it all.Aquarius
The Moon continues its transit of your solar eighth house for the first part of the day, dear Aquarius, inclining you to observe more than participate. You might relish a little time to yourself. Later, the Moon’s move into your spirit sector pulls up a need for more exploration or interactivity. Your appetite for taking on new interests or developing existing ones builds. Still, too many choices can be overwhelming, and you might watch for taking on too much when releasing tension is better for you now.Pisces
The Moon highlights your need for others today, dear Pisces, and you tend to seek collaboration and feedback. You’re learning a lot about yourself through your dealings and exchanges. You may feel strongly about achieving a more balanced, harmonious atmosphere around you. Later today, the Moon moves into your sharing and intimacy sector, and your need to observe and reflect intensifies. Part of you may want to test your feelings or limits, and another part wants to simplify. Ideally, you find the middle ground.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
