Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Unfinished business can weigh you down in the first half of the day, dear Aries. There can be inner unrest or vague tensions related to matters you’ve been avoiding. It may be that conflicting options are on the table, and indecision sets in. Conversations and interactions can be pleasant but convoluted or insubstantial. You might decide to take a time-out from heavy thinking to consider ways to handle the matters that have you feeling uncertain at some point when you feel more confident. It may be that you need more time to intuit your next move. People have a way of jumpstarting your thinking processes at this stage with Mercury in your partnership sector, and instincts improve for relating as the day advances. In fact, you might enjoy a conversation with someone who’s on the same mental wavelength as you. Mercury and the Sun align in the sign opposite yours, and mental energy is intense and in the spotlight. Relationships themselves can be the primary topic of discussion. Some emotional detachment can be helpful at the moment. Conversations happen that may not engage your emotions, but that can be very constructive. There may be new clarity or a turning point in a relationship, and it’s a good time to let others take the lead in conversations.Taurus
In the first half of today, you may need to settle with not knowing all the details, dear Taurus, as much as you’d prefer to sort something out. There can be a slight and temporary dip in confidence about recent decisions and choices, but this is only part of the natural ebb and flow of things. Distractions can take the form of friends or ambiguities in your social life. If your heart’s not entirely in something, procrastination comes more easily. Later today, more clarity arrives, particularly as you sort out your feelings and needs. Communication can help center you and relieve your mind regarding your troubles or concerns. With the Sun and Mercury aligning in your work and services sector, an idea can fully bloom, and thoughts about your health, daily affairs, chores, or work can be insightful. Conversations or incoming news can lead the way to new beginnings.Gemini
You may need to accept some ambiguities and await a decision in the first half of the day, dear Gemini. Neptune is currently transiting your career, life path, and performance sector. When under mild strain as it is these days, uncertainties related to your general life direction or responsibilities and duties can interfere with your mood or focus. Satisfying decisions can be hard to come by with unfinished business at the back of your mind. You’d do best to avoid revealing something private or speaking too soon. But as the day advances, you can find yourself more and more engaged on a mental level. You are articulate and possibly dramatic, and you might enjoy entertaining others with your conversation. Or, the Sun-Mercury alignment can help you gain some clarity about creative projects, a relationship, course, or a hobby. You’re taking more pride in your work, ideas, and beliefs, and others are taking note! Creative projects could reach a turning point, or there can be a romantic revelation. Observations made now are likely to be significant, and assessing recent ideas can be beneficial.Cancer
In the first half of the day, you may have trouble concentrating on facts and figures, dear Cancer, finding that your mind wanders too easily. Plans may not work out to the letter, although sidetracking may lead to new ideas. You can’t force inspiration, so it’s best to let it come to you naturally. Stepping back from a problem can help. Later today, it becomes far easier to sort out your needs and feelings, and getting to the root of any recent problems in your personal life is possible. In fact, it can be a time of meaningful conversations or plans regarding domestic matters, with the Sun and Mercury heading into alignment in your solar fourth house. Things may be coming together on the home front or regarding living conditions, and ideas can blossom. Mental activity is intense–you can be making plans, solving problems, and handling details. Significant ideas, news, or conversations can be part of your day, even if you don’t yet know their value!Leo
While you’re in the mood to fact-find, connect, and learn, dear Leo, a decision may not be clear-cut in the first half of the day. You could be swinging from fact-finding and daydreaming today, having difficulty getting the full picture of a situation. This can mean you miss the mark, and you may need to wait for a time when your intuition and mind are working together harmoniously, if possible. Consider your ideals and how to incorporate them in satisfying ways into your current projects and pursuits since ignoring them won’t work for you for too long. While you could find others aren’t quite getting what you mean, as the day advances, sorting things out comes far more naturally, making it easier to verbalize what you want. In fact, the Sun and Mercury approach a conjunction, and it can be a mentally busy time. A significant idea or project can blossom. Learning is quick and easy, and new ideas can be exciting.Virgo
In the first part of the day, whether there are more distractions or you’re more distractable, dear Virgo, you can have problems focusing. Don’t fret too much about it since being temporarily out of sync can have the effect of redirecting you out of a rut and into an interesting new direction. Still, ambiguities in a relationship could make it difficult to concentrate fully on the task at hand. If you can’t seem to get a conversation in sync, try not to take it personally, as it’s likely just a hiccup. Later today, words come more easily. Money matters and practical affairs are in focus, with the Sun and Mercury coming together in your resources sector. As further details emerge, new insights, ideas, and perspectives on these matters can figure strongly. Helpful information can now be processed, organized, and sorted. This transit can help bring objectivity to an issue or clarify a financial, ownership, or respect matter. You might turn recent ideas or possibilities into solid plans as you flesh them out with details and specifics.Libra
There can be something missing from observations in the first part of the day, dear Libra, which can lead to poor decisions unless you wait things out. A Mercury-Neptune transit doesn’t make it easy for you to see the full picture. The tendency is to approach a situation either too rationally or with too much imagination. It’s temporary, of course, but it would be a good idea to avoid hard and fast decisions or commitments. Vague physical and emotional complaints or disorganization are likely. If you let your mind idle, you might end up worrying needlessly over the tiniest things, leading to restlessness and irritability. But as the day progresses and the Sun and Mercury head into alignment in your sign, bringing far more clarity. Verbalizing your desires can be in sharp focus. In fact, you can feel driven to express yourself. You can experience important realizations, epiphanies, and clarifications. An idea comes into full bloom, or the information you’ve been waiting for arrives. You may see details you missed in the past.Scorpio
In the first part of the day with a Mercury-Neptune quincunx, dear Scorpio, thinking can swing from too factual to overly imaginative, but if you can’t combine the two, you’re missing something. Or, your thought processes are going in circles because you need a break from overthinking. If you’ve denied yourself moments to unwind, now’s the time to seek healthy escapes. If you feel vaguely guilty about needing time to yourself, remind yourself that you can’t always be “on.” But as the day advances, communications can help you sort things out, or organizing your thoughts seems particularly worthwhile. We head toward a Sun-Mercury alignment in your soul sector, and it’s a time to verbalize or sort out a private matter. You’re inclined to analyze and process recent events or ideas, and ideas coming to you can be highly significant. Revealing conversations or details emerging can prompt a turning point of sorts.Sagittarius
In the first part of the day, unfinished business can hang over your mood, dear Sagittarius. Doubts can crop up, and if you experience some lack of energy, it might only mean you need to take a break or a bit of time to adjust. A Mercury-Neptune minor challenge can challenge your concentration. An inconsistency in an idea, plan, or conversation might nag at you. While it can be valid, consider that some uncertainties may be insecurities in disguise. People can be slightly off their game or more undecided than usual. But as the day advances, a Sun-Mercury alignment comes into play, and it can help you see a plan or friendship with greater clarity. You might enjoy playing with emerging new ideas for long-term pursuits. Friends have something important to contribute or say right now! It’s a time for feeling motivated and inspired by your dreams or visions of the future. You might arrive at a fuller understanding of a long-standing issue.Capricorn
There can be some mental wavering in the first part of the day, dear Capricorn. With Mercury at odds with Neptune, integrating your mind and intuition may not be straightforward. You might consider it a signal that you need a break from overthinking. It’s best not to communicate in an offhand manner since the chances of misrepresenting yourself run higher than usual. Seeing the whole picture is challenging for now, and decision-making is far easier when you can see more layers of a situation. Try to tackle one thing at a time since it can be chaotic otherwise. But as the day advances, communications can be lively, stimulating, and refreshingly open. Mercury and the Sun head into alignment, helping you see career and life path goals or professional matters and responsibilities more clearly. Your view is more balanced and logical, and while this perspective may not take all things into account, it’s valuable. Verbalizing your thoughts gives them life and helps you understand them better. Your powers of reasoning are mighty right now, and there can be meaningful conversations or communications that help you turn a corner, at least on a mental level.Aquarius
In the first half of the day, you could lack a clear plan or worry about unfinished business related to money or business, dear Aquarius. You don’t yet have all the answers, but you may need to let the answers come to you on their own terms! With Neptune in your resources sector, uncertainties about money, income, or even your worth can be at the root of restlessness or distractions. It may be the time to make some adjustments or slow down to catch your breath and gain perspective. But as the day advances, there can be a real buzz of ideas with you. In fact, illumination can occur on a mental level. Mercury and the Sun head into alignment in your spirit sector, and conversations, news, and thoughts arising now can help clear up misconceptions, ultimately helping you make definite plans. Blanks fill in, mainly related to studies, personal interests, publishing, or a communications project. You can be excited to share your ideas or opinions. An important piece of information can arrive that completes a picture. It’s helpful to keep in mind that while conversations can be interesting right now, an emotional or sensitive element could be missing.Pisces
Consider that you may not have enough information about money matters, joint business ventures, or shared resources to make satisfying conclusions in the first half of the day, dear Pisces. However, as the day advances, clarity increases. Until then, you can feel slightly off your game or out of sync with others temporarily. There is a scattered feel to early day, and it could benefit you to think about how insecurities or lack of organization may be interfering with your pursuit of business or practical affairs and independence. Playing around with ideas becomes a more enjoyable, light-hearted experience as the day advances. In fact, you could solve a mystery or problem as the Sun and Mercury head into alignment in your solar eighth house. You’re likely to discover new information about an intimate relationship or financial issue. If you need to sort out a complicated matter, this is an excellent time to do so. It’s not so much a time for deep connections as it’s suitable for looking at deeper issues with more objectivity and reason. In fact, detaching yourself just enough from emotions can be beneficial from time to time. You’re mentally sharp, seeing details you may have missed or that weren’t available in the past. An important conversation or observation may occur now.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
