Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Today’s energies can prompt you to want to begin anew, dear Aries. A New Moon occurs in the sector of your solar chart that rules your earning power, comfort, and security. It’s strong for intuition, particularly regarding finances, income, personal resources, valuables, and self-worth. It’s time for a fresh start with issues of usefulness, respect, and stability, and you’re likely to feel encouraged, inspired, and determined to make positive changes. A take-charge attitude can emerge from a feeling of lack, a dream or sudden fear that you’re not on top of things, or from an event that reminds you of who or what you value most. Sometimes feeling temporarily insecure about your situation motivates you to strengthen your position. While money management can be in focus with this lunation, it’s also a fantastic time to enjoy earthy and grounding activities.Taurus
Today’s New Moon is about you, dear Taurus. You’re more motivated, inspired, determined, and hopeful, and you’re bringing these attitudes into the world. The week ahead is a time for reinventing yourself or a fresh start related to your approach to the world, personal image, independence, and attitude or outlook. Opportunities are likely to open up to you in the coming days. Your drive to be counted, seen, and heard emerges, and you might want to update your personal presentation or image, which can lead to a new beginning. Especially if you feel that others are not quite getting you, this is a time for setting things straight. Avoid rushing into new launches or initiatives, aiming to pace yourself. You want action, and you do everything with style today. You can be particularly motivated to challenge yourself mentally.Gemini
Today’s New Moon arrives as a gentle push to put the past behind you with solid plans, actions, or even symbolic actions, dear Gemini. It’s a time for cleaning the slate, and you get solid support for doing so–you’re likely to feel both inspired and determined. There is much going on behind the scenes or in the background in your life with this lunation. You’re tying up loose ends or dealing with secrets, private matters, and karma. Your dreaming world is vivid, and intuition is exceptionally active at this time. Aim to listen to your inner voice, but take your time as you ease into transitions in the days ahead. It’s a great time for review, letting go, and recharging your spiritual “batteries” (which can significantly impact your physical energy stores). Things may come to light that help you let go of attachments that have been stunting your emotional growth.Cancer
Today’s New Moon challenges you to start fresh with your social life, networks, involvement with others or the community, contributions, and attention to happiness goals, dear Cancer. Your sense of belonging to something bigger than yourself can be in focus! You can feel inspired and determined to make improvements and positive changes in the days ahead. This New Moon can also awaken yearnings for kinship, friendship, and involvement on the soul level. You may be taking care of others, or you may be seeking support. It can also be a time for planting seeds for future goals and dreams. You have more power and opportunity to make a difference with others or to make an impact in your social circle or community. You can gain some forward momentum and motivation from long-term projects that invigorate and excite you in the week ahead. Keep an eye out for opportunities emerging through friends, networks, or groups.Leo
In the days ahead, you can be quite inspired and determined to start fresh and make improvements, dear Leo. If you need to begin anew with career or performance goals, aim to set your intentions with a New Moon today. This lunation is wonderfully supportive of your professional plans, long-term goals, or life path pursuits. Your reputation can get a nice boost, and responsibilities are easier to meet. A new plan will likely unfold in the days or week ahead, and it can fill you with high hopes and a sense of purpose. It’s the most public time of the year for you — a time when others notice you for your accomplishments. You see how others’ vision of you impacts your life. In fact, this is a great time for updating or refreshing your image through positive actions. This can be a time for making a comeback of sorts if you’ve been keeping to yourself or focused on other life departments in recent months.Virgo
Today’s New Moon reminds you that new approaches to education, home life, publishing, and recreation may be in order, dear Virgo. In the week ahead, you might commit to a new line of study or to pursue more enjoyment and discovery in your life. New or revitalized interests, studies, ideas, and different perspectives can lead you in new directions. Breaking out of limiting habits and routines can be almost as important to you as breaking into unexplored territory. Either way, you’re feeling refreshed. Your quest to learn and grow is intense, and your studies or interests can take you somewhere exotic mentally. Gaining new knowledge or fleshing out your knowledge of particular subjects can figure strongly. You can feel enthusiastic and excited about new beginnings and fresh starts. It can be a particularly excellent time for networking activities, promotion, or otherwise spreading the word.Libra
New beginnings with shared finances or debts are in store, dear Libra. Today’s New Moon gives you a cosmic nudge toward sharing, supporting, and enjoying a relationship or project in more depth. A fresh start in an intimate relationship or with a particular passion project is also possible now–you’re inspired and determined to make improvements! It’s also an excellent time to become more aware of any negative or undermining dependencies you may have on others and things. This influence stirs up your desire for emotional intimacy and closeness with others, which can enforce more creative relating patterns. Still, it might also stir your frustrations if current relationships do not satisfy your more profound needs. Still, new insights can be intensely revealing, particularly about money, love, or intimacy in the days ahead.Scorpio

This can also be a time for increased activity with clients, counselors, or the like, and you might find yourself in higher demand than usual. It’s a busier time of year for involvement in others’ lives and an opportunity period for building your people and negotiation skills. You’re likely to feel that you’re progressing or improving, and this sense serves as a powerful motivator across the board.Sagittarius
Today’s well-supported New Moon helps you start fresh with work, health, routines, wellness, and good habits, dear Sagittarius. Circumstances are such that you’re inspired and motivated to begin anew with your health and wellness, physical healing, your day job or chores, daily affairs, or pets. There can be new projects, assignments, priorities, and tasks to manage in the coming days. Inner stirrings can prompt a new approach to work and health or the desire for something new from your routines. This can be an opportunity period for building better, more satisfying systems. Avoid beginning too quickly, aiming to pace yourself. Even so, it’s a great day to set your intentions.Capricorn
Today’s New Moon can bring on a new beginning or fresh start regarding love, romance, creativity, children, fertility, entertainment, leisure, or hobbies, dear Capricorn. This lunation begins a period for taking charge of these areas of your life — for making improvements to your life that help restore balance. You require quality leisure time and channels for expressing yourself creatively. You might explore or develop the creative or romantic sides of your personality in the days ahead, and today is about setting your intentions and goals in these areas. You might experience a sudden desire to share yourself with others, perform, get noticed, or express yourself in creative or playful ways.

You want a safety net, comfort, familiarity, and nurture, and you’re taking steps to boost these areas. An opportunity period opens for you to better understand your personal needs and loved ones. Aim to make some resolutions about how to improve your home life and your sense of security and comfort now. Fine-tuning the systems in your home life can be particularly satisfying and benefit you in many different life departments.Pisces
