Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
You’d prefer to cooperate than compete with today’s Moon transit, dear Aries, and you might seek healthy ways to escape the daily grind. It’s a good time of the lunar month to reconnect with your happiness goals. Reconnecting with someone can figure strongly now. You want to explore different options today. However, a Venus-Pluto aspect coming into influence later today can produce some tension, or it can stimulate insecurities regarding money, relationships, and pleasures. Unresolved problems and fears of losing a position can emerge and disrupt your good humor in spots tonight and early tomorrow. For best results, keep a goal in mind and aim to do your best without succumbing to the pressure to do it all immediately. Pacing yourself is important now.Taurus
The Moon spends the day in your sector of goals and reputation, dear Taurus, stimulating a stronger awareness of your objectives, accomplishments, and performance. Following the rules may be your best bet with this short but useful transit. It can also be a fine day for discovering a good buy or deal. As the day progresses, your needs and wants are complex, and fear of change can be at the root with Venus moving into a challenging aspect to Pluto. You may not know how to get what you want directly, and the temptation can be to find subtle or roundabout ways to pursue your goals, but this could make your life more complicated than necessary. Differences of opinion can be more difficult to navigate. You seem to crave more comfort and security in your relationships these days, but it can be difficult to let down your guard just for now. Aim for moderation.Gemini
The Moon spends the day in your spirit sector, dear Gemini. You may be excited about helping people understand your point of view today. Bonding with others about ideas and ideals can figure strongly now. Life becomes a little more intense as the day advances, and emotions can be up and down. A fair part of you wants to have some fun and is taking things lightly, but another part can’t help but see flaws. As a result, it can be hard to relax fully. You may be particularly sensitive to others’ agendas or motives, and you are quick to see discrepancies or problem areas later today. Watch for emotional reactions or hypersensitivity that keep you from enjoying yourself. However, pay attention to complicated feelings. With some self-honesty, you might get in touch with desires you didn’t know you had.Cancer
You’re inclined to observe and analyze today, dear Cancer. Business strategy can thrive today, and so can planning out personal moves. Quiet, pleasurable activities are in focus. Later today, there may be some challenges or concerns about your relationships, and the tendency is to see the darker side. Or, you might deal with the jealousies of someone close to you. Interactions are not as flowing later today as they were earlier. Part of you wants to see the good things, and the other part focuses on negative possibilities. Choose to rise above this, but give some thought to what’s bothering you since fears and insecurities are likely to blame. For the time being, it may be best to seek ways to make yourself happy that don’t depend on others.Leo
The Moon spends the day in your partnership sector, dear Leo, and you can find yourself more invested in your relationships and social life than usual. You’re seeking more balance and perhaps some feedback. You appreciate a theme of cooperation, friendliness, and openness. As the day advances, we approach a Venus-Pluto aspect that complicates feelings or desires, particularly if we don’t feel comfortable with them. This transit alludes to a possible struggle between dealing with routines and responsibilities and the desire for more time to enjoy others. The idea that you may be losing ground or missing out if you don’t attend to your work can prevent you from fully relaxing. There can be the jealousies of others to navigate now. Do your best to rise above any mind games people may be playing. Aim to take charge of your own happiness by occupying your mind with something enjoyable that doesn’t depend on someone else.Virgo
The Moon transits your work and health sector today, dear Virgo, and you’re a little more focused than usual on your duties. You might find yourself in an excellent position for a work project or plan, and you can quite enjoy yourself as you take care of things. It’s a fine day for easy productivity. Later today, we approach a Venus-Pluto aspect that can complicate your feelings or affections. There can also be some challenges getting on board with others’ plans and ideas, particularly the long-term, life path goals. Cooperation is not as straightforward as the day advances. It may be a good strategy to focus on solving intellectual problems instead of attacking more emotionally-rooted ones. Do your best, but don’t worry about pleasing everyone today. Consider ways to express your feelings through creative mediums, which can be especially successful now.Libra
The Moon spends the day in your creative fifth house, dear Libra, stimulating your desire to share your feelings or have some fun. With the Moon’s harmony with Venus today, it’s a fine time for social confidence and an improved personal outlook. Your sense of harmony and balance is powerful. You might enjoy a special hobby or new form of entertainment. As the day advances, you’re a little more serious. Inner fears or tensions can emerge, and this can affect your behavior. The areas of life where you worry you don’t have an edge or an upper hand, possibly your home or family life, begin to interfere with personal enjoyment until you deal with them. Attempting to get your way will not contribute to a feeling of empowerment in the long run, making it best to try to address insecurities or fears. Consider this a time to explore complicated emotions.Scorpio
The Moon transits your home and family sector all day, dear Scorpio, and you’re focusing on your personal life. You’re in particularly good shape for bringing more balance to your domestic world. Pleasant, restful activities are your best bet now. Domestic issues tend to override other concerns today. Later today, we approach a Venus-Pluto tense aspect, and there can be frustration with conversations that seem to beat around the bush or that quickly turn into a game of power or righteousness. The desire to have the last word is strong, but probably not worth the effort. The question will be whether the argument itself is more important than the people involved! The day is good for tackling mental challenges, and you might easily and happily throw yourself into solving a mystery or problem. Be aware of a tendency for communication mishaps, but also consider that these can also lead to new insights and understanding.Sagittarius
Pairing up with someone can be pleasant and rewarding today, dear Sagittarius. There can be good conversations, and sharing ideas is satisfying. The Moon spends the day in your communications sector, and you’re inclined to want to reach out. With a Venus-Pluto influence coming into play later today, however, there’s some tendency to play mind games. Or, worries of losing footing interfere with healthy interactions. Simple conversations or interactions may end up stirring big feelings as the day advances. Differences in values, tastes, or money can be an issue in a relationship. These things don’t have to be disruptive if you find ways to direct emotions constructively. Through some ups and downs, you might gain a new understanding of what you truly value. As well, there’s good energy with you today for approaching problems courageously and directly.Capricorn
There is a stronger focus on money, possessions, and business matters today, dear Capricorn, with the Moon in your resources sector. This transit may instead be about wanting to feel comfortable and secure. You can have a larger appetite for things, in general, at the moment. A smooth, easygoing approach to others and your work or chores yields the best results in the first half of the day. Interactions can be tricky as the day progresses. A direct route to getting what you want isn’t obvious, so the temptation is to try to maneuver things to go your way instead. While it’s probably not the best time to state your desires, it’s best to avoid mind games that will either backfire or leave you feeling uncomfortable.Aquarius
The Moon spends the day in your sign, dear Aquarius, and its harmony with Venus brings good energy for connecting with others and cooperating. Personal urges tend to override most other concerns. Others see you in a particularly attractive light, and your need to be understood and acknowledged comes to the fore. As the day advances, a Venus-Pluto aspect comes into play, and feelings are more complicated. Strategies to get what you desire can be useful at times, but they may not work in your favor now. Part of you wants to throw yourself into new experiences with Venus in your creative sector. Another part of you can worry or hold yourself back. Consider that you may be making more of a situation than it warrants, stressing you unnecessarily. If you need more time to build your confidence in an endeavor, make room.Pisces
You may feel a stronger need for private time or extra time to regroup emotionally today, dear Pisces. It’s a time in the lunar month for exploring your inner world, and laying low can be beneficial. It can be a good time for quiet activities and pleasurable pastimes with the Moon’s easy aspect to Venus in your home and family sector. Taking things easy is fortifying. As the day progresses, an influence coming into play brings out complications or complexity in your feelings and interactions. You could suspect a hidden agenda when you’d prefer to communicate with more sincerity. Insecurities can have you feeling you need to oversee your relationships, or your fears keep you from resting. Give yourself some time to explore your feelings before pushing forward so that you can bring them into the light rather than let them work quietly against you.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
