Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
With the Moon in your solar sixth house today, dear Aries, it’s a potentially good time for problem-solving. You’d prefer to get things done quietly without too many distractions today. While your initiative is strong, you may need to fight the tendency to spend too much time on little problems whose solutions won’t benefit you enough to justify the time spent on them. Still, you may be rediscovering the fun or exciting elements of a routine or long-standing situation. You can be especially practical yet also forward-looking in your approach. People are especially interested in your conversation, ideas, and opinions, and you may be leading the way in some manner with friends and associates. You are more resourceful than usual, and could easily gather inspiration from people in your life.Taurus
You can enjoy stirring conversations that can stand out as creative today, dear Taurus. The Moon is in your recreation sector all day, bringing out a need to share your affection, play, enjoy, and celebrate. You can be comfortable as the center of attention now, but you’re not actively seeking it. You can feel especially hopeful and open to making changes. There is a sense that you are more in charge of your happiness, and of course, this is the case. You’re in good shape for insights mostly revolving around your personal life, intimate relationship with yourself, and awareness of your fears, addictions, attachments, and dependencies on others. Your vision of these things can improve, and ideas and strategies for better managing your life and dealing with problem areas can come to you in a flash now. The sharing of helpful ideas or support can figure strongly.Gemini
There can be some tension building in a close relationship, dear Gemini, but it may be about the need to grow and improve. It can be helpful to consider ways to preserve your independence on some level. The Moon is in an insular area of your solar chart all day, and you may want to either stick close to home or surround yourself with familiar sights. Still, the day is good for arriving at solutions and answers to recent dilemmas and understanding your desires and needs. Transits mostly favor quiet activities. Still, be aware that you might say things from your head and not your heart, which can have mixed results. Avoid trying to score intellectual points or winning a debate at the expense of healthy communication. Fortunately, as the day advances, it’s a time to come together with others or make satisfying agreements. You might arrive at good, solid strategies for better dealing with your life. It’s a strong time for getting to the very core of a problem and seeing things you missed in the past.Cancer
Today’s transits find you more communicative and curious than usual, dear Cancer. You’ll find that others are cooperative and looking forward rather than getting stuck in a groove, but they could be prone to debate and sensitivity when it comes to their opinions and beliefs. You could feel more enthusiastic about a writing or learning project, and you might gain a pleasant, helpful perspective through a friend. People are drawn to you and your ideas. You can be feeling especially motivated and energized, and ideas about work or health are fertile. You want to move ahead–stagnation won’t do! Pacing yourself makes sense, especially with Mercury about to turn retrograde, but do enjoy entertaining different ideas today. There can be a lot of satisfaction in offering your practical support, largely through information or your skills.Leo
Today’s Moon inclines you to want to be self-sufficient and comfortable, dear Leo. Even so, there can be some impatience or a building sense that you want to do something different, more exciting, and more fulfilling. This could build to a recognition that you need others, perhaps a team, in order to maximize success. However, a prime motivator can be the goal of ultimately feeling less indebted to others and dependent on things. You’re in good shape for assessing your resources, money, and capabilities, and your choices and decisions improve as you do so. Patience can help you to achieve your goals. You’re well-positioned to help others with your advice, your perspective, or information. You may be nurturing others through your words now.Virgo
The Moon continues to transit your sign today, dear Virgo, and you’re attracting some attention your way. You’re also inclined to take things a little more personally right now. Your heart tends to rule your head, and you can be feeling nostalgic. While you should definitely watch for impatience, you can enjoy a sense that you’re starting fresh and making your own decisions. Your attitude towards living your life is much more exuberant, and you tend to see more opportunities as a result. A creative activity or hobby could be part of the picture. Today is also strong for looking at home and family affairs differently and arriving at new strategies to improve things. It’s a good time for sharing personal thoughts and memories with people you trust. As the day advances, there is generally good judgment with you, particularly regarding opportunities. You may find new meaning and purpose in something you’re doing now. There is a good sense of when to take the lead and when to let others do so. Still, Mercury will turn retrograde tomorrow, and it makes sense to avoid locking something down today.Libra
The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, dear Libra, and you can be in a reflective mood as you require a little more personal space to relax. This state puts you in a superb position to let go of the past to make way for the future. Nevertheless, the appeal of learning or connecting and the draw of your curiosity can be distracting in spots today. Others might more readily lean on you for support, or you might aim to clear your head of distractions and focus on the things that truly mean something to you. Avoid working against yourself, and instead focus on making an improvement to your life. You may be taking special interest in a project, idea, or topic as the day advances. This is also a strong time for connecting with a special someone. The benefits of a friend, partner, or support system become evident.Scorpio
You are in a sociable mood today, dear Scorpio, with the Moon in your social sector all day. Still, watch carefully for a tendency to want to do too much, too fast. Socially, there can be easier expression or a feeling that you’re supported and accepted. You attract people or energy that helps you grow, expand, and improve. Someone might offer a good suggestion or idea that helps you in your daily life. While the day can be strong for making connections, if you’ve been overloading your schedule or if you’ve taken on too many side projects recently, you’re likely to feel it strongly now. Try not to expect too much from yourself right now, and aim to be more selective in what you take on. Nevertheless, as the day advances, it can be a powerful time for viewing your finances or other resources differently, which leads to interesting ideas and strategies.Sagittarius
With the Moon transiting the most visible area of your solar chart, dear Sagittarius, your responsibilities are highlighted. Practical matters capture your attention more than usual, and your longer-term goals are in mind. You’re not afraid to draw on your intuition as you focus on your duties or practical affairs today. It’s a fine day to think in terms of technological upgrades, improved methods, and innovative approaches. But while today’s energies are generally good for work and business, with Mercury reaching a station tomorrow, take things easy. What you should strive to do is avoid taking on too much on the one hand and resting on your laurels on the other. Find a happy medium. Think in big terms, and tend to the details when you’re tuned in to them at a later date. For now, it’s a powerful time for generating significant ideas, strategies, and goals.Capricorn
With Mercury turning retrograde tomorrow, dear Capricorn, aim to take extra care communicating, as the information floating around you may not be complete. There can be some pressure to get things done, so sitting idly may only frustrate you. It’s a good day for mind-expanding experiences that broaden your horizons, however big or small. While you enjoy sharing your ideas today, you tend to go your way no matter the feedback. While you generally pay much attention to details, your enthusiasm today can interfere. However, you possess a stronger than usual sense of what will work and thrive, so pay attention to new ideas that come to you and take notes, saving them for a steadier day. As today advances, you’re gaining interesting insight into matters of the past, things hidden from sight, and areas of your own psyche that may have been holding you back from enjoying yourself.Aquarius
The day’s energies are upbeat, although sometimes impulsive in the first half of the day, dear Aquarius. Tension is building, especially if you’re feeling restricted or without direction. Otherwise, it’s a good time to access your inner wisdom and put your powers of observation to work. The Moon spends all day in your intimacy sector, activating a desire to look for the layers of situations rather than take things at face value. The Moon’s trine to Uranus indicates a need to feel you’re making progress. An emotional release or relief from a burden can figure strongly. You can be excited about making changes in your home or with family. As the day advances, others seek your guidance, advice, or support, and you’re especially happy sharing your ideas and generous with your time. There can be wonderful inspiration through friends or networks right now. Still, with Mercury turning retrograde tomorrow, hard and fast decision-making is not advised.Pisces
You’re particularly concerned with close relationships today, dear Pisces. While there can be a tendency to rush things, consider that tension building within you has to do with a desire to grow and improve. You gravitate towards activities that feed your desire to feel connected to the world around you today, whether focusing on dreams or plans close to your heart or connecting with others. Others’ input helps you clarify your position, even if it’s contrary. Aim to get to know someone better or learn another side of a story to round out your perspective. There’s also good energy with you today for learning and working on improving a system or project in your life. Don’t be discouraged if you find yourself moody, as ups and downs are par for the course, and they may end up leading to a better final result. It’s a fertile time for work, business, and other practical ideas. Mercury will turn retrograde tomorrow and enable a new perspective on old problems, projects, and approaches, particularly related to work and long-term goals. Today, while it’s best not to lock anything down, entertain new insights and discoveries that might help and empower you.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
