Aries
With Pluto ending its retrograde cycle today, dear Aries, matters related to career, finances, and intimacy will likely unblock in the weeks ahead. Even so, this can be an intense time for happenings in your career and your personal life. Extremes of feeling are possible as the shift occurs. Still, sound energy is with you for making necessary changes in relationships with a parent or boss as you advance. If there is a negative attitude or bad habit that you need to kick, this is the time to do so! Today, you might connect with someone who helps broaden your experiences, or you are ready to explore something new, seeking out a little more meaning. Once you have perspective, today’s energies are useful for taking a good look at what you can improve with your work, finances, or health. Good advice from someone you trust may be in the offing now.Taurus
Pluto turns direct after retrograde motion since May, dear Taurus. As you advance, faith in a system or conviction for a particular belief returns, and your desire to explore the world increases in the weeks and months ahead. Your desire increases to share your ideas and pursue a topic. Problems with a partner or close friend that have been swept under the carpet begin to make themselves known. The good news is that you now feel more able to handle these things and are prepared to make long-lasting improvements. While the shift occurs now, people may be more emotionally reactive than usual. However, you’ll gain clarity on a partnership, travel, educational, legal, or promotional matter going forward. Fortunately today, you take a special interest in the practical elements of a project, and your instinct for what has long-term worth is strong.Gemini
Pluto stations and turns direct today, dear Gemini, after retrograde motion since May. In the weeks ahead, you’ll feel more confident and motivated to take charge of your work, daily routines, habits, health, and finances. You become less concerned with whether you’ve made the right choices in the past and more focused on your current path and prospects. You’ll recognize unnecessary elements in your routine or attitudes more readily, making streamlining easier. You may be actively doing research and can apply yourself with increased focus and dedication. Results arrive this week. The shift today may magnify worries temporarily, but you’ll gain perspective before long. Also today, there can be improvements in the family dynamic or household, particularly related to meeting responsibilities, which can be satisfying and stabilizing.Cancer
Pluto stations and turns direct today after over five months of retrograde motion, dear Cancer, and there can be a feeling of a breakthrough with a close relationship. You might come to a decision that has been a long time coming. You could be surprised to discover an ally or a newfound faith in someone you already know in the coming weeks. You can learn valuable things about someone special in your life, finding new layers to a person or special relationship. More clarity is likely in your love relationships and partnerships. As the shift happens today, you can feel some pressure, or there can be some dramatic feelings or discoveries. However, today’s energies are good for attention to practical details that help you improve or secure relationships and projects. Learning more about what may have been robbing you of your good spirit can be motivating.Leo
Pluto stations and turns direct today, dear Leo, after retrograde motion since May. This shift puts you on the verge of some exciting approaches to managing your domestic life, work, and health. A work project or a job can move forward now and in the coming weeks. The motivation to pursue a new or previously shelved health program can return. You’ll be feeling more and more “on the ball” and empowered. There can be some intensity while the shift occurs now, so don’t rush into anything. Aim to observe and strategize until you grow more accustomed to this energy shift. However, if you pace yourself, the day holds great energy for working through problems. It’s a good time to devise strategies for handling problem areas. You have excellent support for concentrating on pet projects, studies, or creative pursuits.Virgo

It’s a time for applying recent insights about your relationships and pursuits. You’ll be ready to make essential changes, and it all starts with your can-do attitude and rising motivation levels. Romantic feelings, personal interests and projects, and creative pursuits are life departments that get a nice forward boost now. Even so, this week, you might feel some pressure or worries along these lines as the shift happens. Things can temporarily feel overwhelming, but this is only your way of adjusting to the changes. Venus harmonizes with Vesta today, and this helps you more thoroughly enjoy your work or responsibilities. Friends, siblings, neighbors, or classmates can come through for you. Be willing to consider letting go of a matter that’s keeping you from enjoying yourself, growing, and improving.Libra

Your relationships with family and family roles are changing, and your determination to resolve challenges is building. Motivation and take-charge energy increase. Acknowledge the need to make changes and improvements for best results now, and own it! Home-related projects might unblock or gain momentum. Letting go of something that’s been dragging you down may be part of this energy. Watch for a tendency to put yourself on the defensive today.

A project can unblock, or news arrives that pushes your studies or a venture forward. With clarity, both your motivation and energy levels take off. Aim to do a clear-out on a mental level so that you can envision your goals. Fortunately, supportive energy flows for you related to magnetism and appeal, networking, and camaraderie or collaboration.Sagittarius
Pluto ends its retrograde phase today, dear Sagittarius, and slowly but surely, you’ll be taking charge of your life especially in Pluto-ruled and influenced areas.

It can be an excellent time to recognize and work on letting go of automatic behaviors that have kept you from thriving. During the shift itself today and this week, concerns can intensify initially, but they should decrease as you begin to make more sense of them. A business or financial matter might be unblocked or released. A cautious or conservative streak with money and possessions continues for a bit longer, but you aim to rise above worries. Today’s energies are good for making the most of a situation, however, and you can very well find just the right motivation to make improvements.Capricorn

Opportunities can emerge to make changes to your friendships that benefit you for some time to come. Income from a business can spike. Today is good for productivity.

Brainstorming or networking can lead to bright ideas or solutions to predicaments.Pisces

In the future, you’ll find that uncertainties clear up. Friendships may be intense, but instead of dwelling on problem areas, you are motivated to make necessary changes that bring you closer to resolving long-standing problems. Small changes made now can impact the future in significant ways. New ideas and approaches to your social life can emerge and empower you.
