Horoscopes
Aries
This is a good day for all activities that revolve around getting rest, time for reflection or deep thought, research and investigation, and volunteer work, dear Aries. You are still in a period of natural repose which continues until early November 1st when you begin a fresh new lunar cycle. You stand to gain some wonderful insight into a love relationship today, as the atmosphere is ripe for intimacy. Or you can feel a sense of renewal regarding your feelings about a matter, admitting to feelings you’ve been avoiding, or understanding yourself just a little bit better. Even so, mixed emotions and signals are likely in the coming days as we move towards a Full Moon that has a way of exposing all. Today and tomorrow, seek out patches of time to yourself.
Taurus
This is a good time to give others room to be themselves without any pressure to perform or to measure up, dear Taurus, and to take the same liberties. You’ll find it natural to connect with your dreams and ideals. Others are more cooperative, appreciative, and tolerant than usual, and you’re sure to enjoy the smooth energy of the day. It’s a day that favors putting your fabulous listening skills to use. Even so, new insight into a close relationship comes from pushing boundaries just a tad – just enough to become a little more intimate. Getting to know a significant other’s opinion or beliefs on a matter can boost levels of intimacy as well.
Gemini
The effort that goes into your work may be appreciated now, dear Gemini, even though you are so good at what you do that it usually appears effortless! Others are seeing how practical and valuable you can be. Work, duties, or routines can thrive as a result of your increased motivation. Interactions today can be intense but revealing – far from superficial. Getting to the bottom of a matter is important now. You are highly visible today, whether you’ve chosen to be or not, so show your best colors! Others may expect you to take the lead.
Cancer
Your inner child is coming out to play today, Cancer, and others are genuinely appreciating your spirit. You are not afraid to – and in fact, want to – show your uniqueness. You are taking great pride in your creations now, and you’re also expressing great compassion towards others, which can be infectious. Your ability to attract people and things into your life is high today. You’ll find others are cooperative as the energy of the day flows smoothly with your fundamental nature. New insight into financial affairs or recovering a lost personal possession may figure now. Love relationships receive a blast of warm energy.
Leo
With the Sun’s recent alignment to Jupiter, Leo, you’ve been enjoying a sense of renewal on the levels of trust, faith, and hope, and you may see some extensions of this theme today as the Moon harmonizes with both bodies. If you want to get closer to someone, it’s a fine time to do so, although this can also happen organically today. It’s a fortunate time for family matters, domestic activities, and financial affairs. Family members are cooperative. You are more perceptive than usual, as you can quickly cut through the fluff to motivations. If this is taken too far, of course, it can be counter-productive! However, you have a decent sense of your limits right now. Your research and detective modes are working especially sharply today and tomorrow.
Virgo
Free and breezy conversation will work wonders today, dear Virgo, whether or not they lead to concrete places. You are not always confident that you’ll say the right thing, and today, others are so tolerant that it wouldn’t matter if you did muddle up a few words. Just allow things to flow naturally. Good energy is with you for negotiations and informal or formal agreements. In general, your communications are pleasant and uplifting. You enjoy coming to others’ aid, particularly on a mental or knowledge level, as long as they seem to appreciate it sincerely. Your cooperative, helpful nature comes shining through, making it natural for others to acknowledge your efforts.
Libra
This is a good day for confidence in your resources, work, or routines, dear Libra. You’re likely to enjoy the cooperative energy surrounding you – as a Libra, harmony means the world to you. Intuition or gut feelings tend to be correct today regarding money, work, health, and capabilities. As such, you’re gravitating towards the right methods and situations. This can be a good time to make a purchase or to sniff out good deals and useful products. Renewing an old acquaintance can boost your spirits for some of you now.
Scorpio
The Moon harmonizes with the Sun and Jupiter in your sign today, dear Scorpio, and this brings more light to your personality. The boost is subtle but effective. This is a good day for relaxing recreation – a time to refresh and rejuvenate yourself through activities you genuinely enjoy. It’s a good time for approaching someone with an invitation, or for attracting invites to you. Others take note as you are radiating natural energy and confidence. Since the Sun and Jupiter aligned in your sign a few days ago, your sense of personal renewal of faith and hope has been building.
Sagittarius
While the Moon spends the day in your cautious home and family sector, Sagittarius, the Moon’s harmonious aspects to both the Sun and Jupiter bring increased light to your personality. Others are likely to admire you for your optimism and hopefulness – traits that come so very naturally to you. You remain in “processing” mode as you usually are at this time of year, however. Your goals will become more evident as you go along. For now, enjoy the quiet and the good feelings. It’s quite easy to go with the flow today, in fact. There is a general desire for harmony that keeps people in better spirits than usual, and this suits you well. You may choose not to venture too far from home today, and this is just fine, as this can help you get in better touch with your feelings.
Capricorn
Connections with friends or your personal connection to your dreams and wishes inspire you today, Capricorn, so make sure you are fully emotionally present to gain the most from your interactions. A cooperative feel to the day lifts your spirits and also heightens your desire to socialize. Pleasant exchanges are likely now, and while energies are not obviously productive for the time being, the day is nevertheless valuable for lifting spirits and contributing to a sense of overall well-being. This, in turn, inspires you to do your best when you do get back to business!
Aquarius
Practical matters are in good shape today, Aquarius, not only because you are paying them more attention than usual, but also because your heart is in making things work. Taking care of finances comes naturally with the Moon in your resources sector all day. You may be thinking about ways to improve your disposable income or to enjoy and make full use of what you have. The Moon’s trine to the Sun at the top of your solar chart suggests that cooperation on the job helps your overall mood and assists you with clarifying your goals. Others readily see you as a leader with your demeanor as purposeful as it is today.
Pisces
A surge of enthusiasm brightens your day, dear Pisces, with the Sun in your spirit sector in harmony with the Moon in your sign. If there’s something you want to make up for or catch up on, now is a good time. The day is fortunate for personal influence and warm, smooth relations with others. Your cooperative spirit will not go unnoticed. In fact, you’re hard to ignore today. You could have flashes of inspiration that help you solve problems. Your convictions are exceptionally strong now, and you could be defending something or someone today with vigor. Even so, the fact that you’re coming across pleasingly helps you gain maximum support.

Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.

BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
EARTH WEAK
There can be a lack of desire, interest, or skills regarding practical affairs. We may not be very much in touch with reality. Difficulties concentrating, grounding ourselves.
WATER STRONG
We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality.
BALANCE OF MODES
The modes are balanced.
LUNAR PHASE: FIRST QUARTER
Moon from 90 to 135 degrees ahead of the Sun.
We are motivated to take action, perhaps due to a clash, conflict, or stress, as we are more aware of problems and differences now. Plans are beginning to take off or turn a corner. We should watch for pushing too hard.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on October 30th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
