Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
There can be excitement and enthusiasm for an idea or project today, dear Aries, and vital energy between you and someone special. There can be an opportunity to speak about something dear to your heart, and you are likely to do so with particular charm and persuasion. A Venus-Mars trine can mean a boost or advantage gained in a love relationship, partnership, project, or close friendship. You’re excited to take action on an issue–there is a desire to move ahead, get things done, and not simply wait for things to come to you. It’s a time to stay on top of things socially, as opportunities abound, and you don’t want to miss out on them.Taurus
You have a Venus-Mars trine lifting your spirits today, dear Taurus, and you can find ways to turn competitiveness to your advantage. Opportunities can come from behind the scenes or hidden sources and through your strong connections to others. Your confidence and motivation add to your appeal and chances of succeeding at what you set out to do. You can be productive today and might come up with genuinely brilliant ideas for business, work, or health routines. It’s also a fine time to come to an agreement or infuse a relationship with some excitement. If chores or work have felt dull or pointless, you’ll seek ways to find more satisfaction, perhaps bringing a special unique touch to what you do.Gemini
A Venus-Mars aspect today is excellent for creative, romantic, and recreational pursuits, dear Gemini. Others are drawn to you, particularly for your independence, spirit, and frankness. You’re giving off exceptionally warm or exciting vibes. Your magnetism is strong, and you can feel on fire with passion and creative energy. You could receive gifts and attention– the kinds that help boost your confidence. While there could be exciting new prospects, ideas, and projects now, pace yourself as Mars, in your sign, will be turning retrograde on the 30th, and you may not have as much energy or enthusiasm then. Reassessing your pursuits or drives can be in focus in the coming months. However, today is enjoyable. Pastimes and joys that have something to teach you seem to be a real draw, or you put more effort into the practical side of your hobbies and relationships. It’s a fine time for feeling inspired but also willing to put in the extra effort.Cancer
If you can focus on positive expressions and activities today, dear Cancer, you can tap into a lovely Venus-Mars transit. Focusing on a solvable problem in the mental or mechanical world can be enjoyable and helps release energy constructively. Again today, you can feel driven to take action on a personal matter or to put something behind you. Family matters can be notably warm, smooth, and natural now. Passions are intense, even if some relationships or your feelings are complicated later today. You might find ways to make peace with the past, freeing you up for exciting times to come. Your mood is hopeful, accepting, and creative; you could make happy connections now. Finding more meaning and purpose in what you’re doing can lead to performance peaks. Most importantly, you have a stronger sense of fulfillment.Leo
There can be moments of great and even inspiring harmony today as Venus and Mars form a trine, dear Leo. While there can be tension in a relationship, you may be making interesting connections with someone, and stimulating conversations can ensue. Something you experience today can help motivate you to be your best, particularly related to mental interests and projects. Look for opportunities to connect with someone special through groups, acquaintances, and networking. Things you previously resisted learning can now be more relevant. You might make connections that boost your spirits through the internet, on the phone, or even in the neighborhood. You can feel especially motivated regarding pet projects, ideas, and friendships. It can also be a day when someone’s loyalty or commitment touches you.Virgo
While an upcoming Sun-Pluto square can create some tension, dear Virgo, be sure to tap into today’s Venus-Mars trine that’s friendly and exciting. Others can be especially intrigued by your talents, performance, or the services you offer professionally. It’s a good time to show the world your unique qualities and skills. Events taking place now may stimulate your ambition and gently push you to do your best. You can be feeling quite motivated, particularly when it comes to business and money. Relations with others may be exciting, and enthusiasm runs high. Light conflict tends to stir creativity and motivation today.Libra
Your magnetism runs high today, dear Libra. You’re spirited and ready for action, and super energy is with you today for connecting on a romantic level and for a boost with partnering, learning, publishing, and communicating. A bit of friendly competition can help inspire improvements. Mutually beneficial agreements might be reached. Be sure you don’t take on too much since Mars will turn retrograde on the 30th, and your interests or motivation levels may change. However, today’s transits are strong for a shared activity with a common goal. In fact, you gravitate to people and pursuits that help you feel connected, committed, and useful. You are highly visible today, whether you’ve chosen to be or not, so show your best colors! Later today, watch for taking competition a little too far, as there can be some tension brewing, possibly over past mistakes, guilt, or buried frustrations emerging and affecting your mood.Scorpio
You can feel inspired by your conversations and the connections you make today, dear Scorpio, and your intimate life can get a boost with extra attention. You could be feeling quite passionate about a person or an idea. Finances and business are also favored, with support coming at just the right moment. Relationships can be pleasantly spicy, and your personal magnetism is strong due to today’s Venus-Mars trine. This influence brings two energies that complement each other well in harmony, endowing you with the ability to assert your needs with charm. Your intimate life can get a boost with extra attention and natural acceptance. Working on goals towards inner peace and finding your center can also be satisfying.Sagittarius
Today holds wonderfully creative potential as Venus and Mars form a trine aspect, dear Sagittarius. The trick is to see the beauty of the moment rather than worry about everything else. Nevertheless, transits challenge you to improve, take affirmative action, and go after what you want now, so it’s unlikely to be a passive day. Some romantic excitement in the air or creative interactions can be inspiring. You’re making a good impression on others now. This is a good time for shared activities, too, with Mars in your partnership sector stirring a need for action in relationships. Transits bring a certain ease yet pleasant excitement to social situations.Capricorn
It can be an exceptionally creative time for your work and practical goals, dear Capricorn, and personal or professional appeal. Your reputation can get a boost. Today’s mood is warm, generous, and hospitable but gently competitive. You can make good strides in work-related matters, although your mood is also quite sociable. You shine today in your ability to smooth ruffled feathers. Stamina levels are strong, and with the motivation in place, you can find it easier to get the job done without wasting extra energy. You may not know where you’re heading just yet, but there is good energy for exploration and discovery.Aquarius
There’s strong potential for stimulating interactions today, dear Aquarius. This transit triggers creative urges and a need to share them. A positive, spirited approach to specific areas of your life, especially relationships or creative endeavors, can benefit you considerably now. You are magnetic but you’re also making happy things happen! Competitiveness is likely today, but you can turn it to your advantage. Overall, there’s a nice, warming flow of friendliness between you and others. There can be a feeling of camaraderie and mutual appreciation with a friend, and conversations or compliments can happen now that strengthen your faith in yourself and others.Pisces
Today’s Venus-Mars aspect motivates you to actively pursue better circumstances for yourself, dear Pisces. You can be extremely eager to make changes in your life, particularly on a deep, internal level. Focusing on personal matters, healing energies, and positive reinforcement can be more than worthwhile. Finding creative channels or ways to give voice to some of your inner longings is rewarding. Romantic inclinations are powerful, and you’ll likely seek more intimacy and passion in your relations. You want to feel supported and nurtured, but you’re also stimulated and ready to make it happen! It’s a strong time for looking within yourself and feeling comfortable about your feelings and connections. Those not on the same wavelength as you can very well slow you down, so you’ll want some space balanced with company. There can be a competitive or tense feel to later today, but also distinct opportunities to grow and excel.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
