Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
The Moon encourages your lighter, more spontaneous side today, dear Aries. This transit is not only about escaping the ordinary but also about expanding your experiences or mind. Opening up to others somehow invites more opportunities into your life. There is more generosity and a spirit of goodwill in your interactions now that can be especially pleasing, although some friendships can be a little touchy. In truth, generally speaking, it’s a somewhat unreliable time, and you could be dealing with communication or mechanical delays and issues today and tomorrow. There’s also a tendency to skip steps or jump ahead–something to watch.Taurus
With the Moon in your shared resources sector all day, dear Taurus, you see layers of situations that escaped your notice in the past. You crave a deeper feeling of connection with someone or your projects. You could be determined to resolve an emotional or private matter. However, there’s a tendency to disagree or work at cross purposes with others today. Transits can inflame money, business, or ownership issues, and focusing on complicated emotions can interfere with your productivity. Fortunately, you can feel especially generous, and you attract love or admirers readily, particularly through your pursuit of daily affairs, chores, health, or work.Gemini
Mars continues to transit your sign, dear Gemini, encouraging your pioneering side, but today’s Moon stimulates a strong need for companionship. It may not be easy to find a balance, especially since someone could arouse defensiveness in you. However, clashes can reveal a side of yourself or your unmet needs, and it’s instructive. If you approach things patiently, you’ll learn more about your desires and attachments. Your spirit is generous now, and transits bring out your desire to be the best you can be and stir a sense that you have the freedom to do more.Cancer
Even with some tension in the first half of the day, dear Cancer, an overall generous feeling keeps your spirits high. Interactions are mutually beneficial and supportive today if you aim to see both sides of the story. The Moon is in your sector of work and routines, highlighting your daily affairs and desire to be useful. While it can be a good period of the lunar month for getting your life straightened out in small ways, watch for pressure or tension early today, as impatience can trip you up. You don’t have to ignore your motivation to set things right, but it’s a good idea to pace yourself.Leo
Today’s Moon brings out strong affections, dear Leo, as well as your sense of play. You gravitate to things that allow you to express yourself uniquely. There’s some tendency to swing between seeing too much or too little opportunity. You can feel discontent if you haven’t approached your life in a balanced way. Sensitivity on a social level can lead to quick reactions, which can heat things up. While the day’s transits are not exceptionally stable or reliable, you tend to enjoy some fresh energy. Aim for rejuvenation instead of trying to do too much.Virgo
The Moon in your home sector all day inclines you to want to refresh, dear Virgo, particularly through familiar activities. At this time of the lunar month, you need to process, digest, and connect with your feelings and needs. Your spirits are high, and you can be pleased with matters that seem to be settling, although you could be waiting for an answer. It’s not an ideal time to make final decisions with Mercury approaching a station, but you can learn a lot from your experiences. Transits do tend to stir some tension in close relationships, but getting in touch with the desire to grow and improve at the heart of this stress can help you tame restlessness. Later today, someone could have a wonderful influence on your personal awareness.Libra
With the Moon in your solar third house all day, dear Libra, your focus is on things to do with the mind, learning, and communication. While the day holds rather forgiving and gracious energy, there can be some tension revolving around opinions and beliefs. You are sharp, but because your mind tends to rule today, be careful that you’re not missing some important reactions. It’s far too easy to get signals crossed on this day before a Mercury station. As well, a Moon-Mars opposition can lead to some impatience. Aim to get in better touch with your true desires before taking action.Scorpio
The Moon spends today in your solar second house, dear Scorpio, and your comfort needs are more important in your mind’s eye. Tensions can build regarding boundaries, money, power dynamics, or respect in the first half of the day when it’s easier to see differences. There’s certainly a vague sense that you want to do something different, more exciting, and more fulfilling. Attractions can be intense, but you can also feel unsatisfied if you sense you’re out of balance. While the day holds some impulsive energy, for the most part, you’re happy to stay put and reel things in. With others, it’s best to double-check that the conversation is working both ways.Sagittarius
You’re in the spotlight with the Moon in your sign today, dear Sagittarius. While you should watch for impatience today, there is generally good humor around you, and you’re willing to turn over a new leaf. You can feel a strong compulsion to leave behind emotional issues that have annoyed you or undermined your comfort. Aim to focus as much as you can on positive mental stimulation, but on this day before a Mercury station, it’s best to wait and see rather than lock something down. Impatience doesn’t serve you well.Capricorn
The Moon in your solar twelfth house all day puts you in a more reflective mood than usual, dear Capricorn. As much as you’d prefer to escape, life can feel a little chaotic in the first half of the day. You’re likely to find that a little more personal space as the day advances. The goal is preferably to refresh and reorient yourself. You could feel some pressure to speak before you’re ready, but it’s probably better to sort things out in your head first on this day before a Mercury station. A building sense of feeling freer after turning a corner. It’s best to aim for balance as much as possible, and getting in touch with true needs and wants should probably be a priority.Aquarius
It’s best to watch for a tendency to want to skip steps today, dear Aquarius. It may be best to decide to act from your heart rather than react to people or circumstances around you. You incline to go your own way, which can work for you, but jumping to conclusions or decisions may not be wise on this day before a Mercury station and a general tendency to misjudge things. Responsibilities or problems from the past have a way of surfacing for your attention. There can be some restlessness and indecision to manage. And, when you get what you want, you may feel disappointed, which could signal that you’re not entirely in touch with your desires. You may swing between wanting to do something independently and wanting others’ involvement. Fortunately, you could be feeling some sort of calling towards a particular subject, and it’s nice to have a mission.Pisces
Revisions can consume your time today and tomorrow, dear Pisces. While it’s no small feat, prioritizing is best, and it’s a good idea to note that others are more sensitive to limits than usual today. People can introduce surprises to your day, or unreliability can keep you on your toes. Sudden urges can be compelling, but getting to the heart of your desires is more important since whims can throw you a little off course. On this day before a Mercury station, aim to wait and see instead of locking into an agreement or coming to a firm conclusion. Fortunately, transits are forgiving and stir your innate tendency to see the best in things.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
