Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
You’re in great shape to smooth your relations as the Sun and Venus meet in your partnership sector, dear Aries. This happens just before both bodies leave the sign (they move into your intimacy sector tomorrow). Attracting warmth and support from others can be effortless. It’s a good time for showing you care and keeping things light and friendly. It’s not about glossing over problem areas, but it’s not a time for raw emoting. Again today, you can experience hopefulness about relationships, even if you haven’t felt it for some time. There can be important epiphanies or advances in or about your relationships. Later today, transits are good for clarifying a matter, which puts you in a powerful position. Common sense seems to rule, and problems feel manageable.Taurus
The Sun and Venus align today, helping to promote socializing, peace-making, and harmony, dear Taurus. It seems most prominent on the job or while you pursue health or daily routines. There can be special enjoyment of (or pride in) your work, services, dedication, and health pursuits–you see the more pleasing aspects of these things! Or, someone helps you see the positive side of your routines. You can consciously work on putting yourself in a better light with great results today. You find it easy to fill in the blanks later today, and you benefit from sorting out your thoughts and plans.Gemini
Today’s energies are warm and hopeful, dear Gemini, and later, very practical. The Sun is shining its light on hints of the future regarding romance, joyful pursuits, and self-expression, and you’re motivated to start sharing yourself more heartfully. You may want to start fresh with your leisure time or love life. There is warm, cooperative energy with you, and you are in a great position to gain positive attention. This comes at a time when both the Sun and Venus are about to leave your joy sector, but their alignment helps you crystallize the lessons of their recent transits. You feel good about yourself and your time devoted to self-expression and enjoyment. You’re in good shape for tuning out distractions and working on a priority as the day progresses.Cancer
The Sun and Venus join forces today, dear Cancer, and you might reach a new understanding of a matter close to your heart. Family affairs can be a motivator, or the focus can be on bringing more harmony and enjoyment to your domestic world. Channeling your attention into a project around the home that will truly make life easier can be especially useful now. You might discover previously hidden information, giving you an incredible feeling of hopefulness. Even with possible disconnects today, there is an overriding desire to make nice, get comfortable, and harmonize. Focus on laying something to rest or altering a goal/approach.Leo
The day holds good energy for relating and understanding your needs for others, dear Leo.

There may be a connection or reconnection made now that makes you feel good. Planning and dealing with details are favored later today.Virgo
You have a stronger than usual desire for comfort and coziness today, dear Virgo, with the Sun and Venus meeting in your resources sector. There may be a gift or bonus or the enjoyment of a special treat. Certainly, there’s some tendency for extravagance and indulgence. It’s a good time for expanding your thinking on business or financial lines as your motivation to improve grows. This Sun-Venus alignment occurs only a day before both bodies move on, and it’s a great time of hopefulness, especially about money, things, material comforts, and self-worth. However, knowing when to wait is essential now. Turning your attention to things you already have can be fruitful as well.Libra

You are motivated to spontaneously share yourself or make more time to do what pleases you most! You could feel romantic and rather desirous or discover a new passion.
