Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

While the Moon spends much of the day in your comfortable solar fourth house, dear Aries, you may be feeling some unrest as the day progresses. With Venus heading into opposition with Uranus, you may very well be dealing with unusual impulses, and whether you battle them or give in to them, there is a need for greater self-awareness now. Feeling restrained or restricted can be at the heart of sudden desires and whims. You may want to display your independence now, but it’s not likely to go over well if you’re not wholly behind what you’re doing. Disruptions experienced now hint at the need to throw away old attitudes and habits that have been limiting your growth. You might even decide to get rid of material things or clutter in your environment to help the process along. Reducing debt can be important for you not just on the material level, but also regarding unhealthy feelings of indebtedness towards others, or dependencies that make you feel less than confident. Relationships might require special understanding or people in your life need a bit of space today.

Taurus

With Venus heading towards an opposition to Uranus, dear Taurus, aim to act from your heart rather than merely react to what’s going on around you. If you’ve been feeling caged in, you’re extra sensitive to any sign of this today! Discontent with the status quo can be at the root of impulsive actions or sudden reactions. Unusual attractions to people and things can be experienced now and can be another symptom! You may feel torn between the need for another’s feedback or approval and the desire to go your own way and act independently. Whatever does happen, you see both yourself and your relationships (or a partner) in a brand new way through the events and feelings of the day. Try to discern between true, honest desires and mere whims. Find ways to seek more of what you want from your life while also taking care of the feelings of people you hold dear.

Gemini

While the Moon spends much of the day in your solar second house, encouraging you to tune into your needs for predictability, dear Gemini, the day may be anything but predictable! This is due to a Venus-Uranus opposition holding sway over the day. People may be emotionally reactive under this influence, and you may be one of them! However, because this is happening in the background of your solar chart, you’re more likely to experience it as an internal conflict. You can feel on edge if anyone seems to be trying to pin you down or if you feel caged in. This may prompt you to dream up ways to handle things such that you feel free while also meet your responsibilities. The tendency for impulsive moves is strong. However, chances are that if you stop to think about it, there are elements of your life, particularly with work, health, and daily habits, that could use some refreshment or change of pace, and today’s feelings can stir you into action.

Cancer

The Moon spends much of the day in your sign, dear Cancer, stimulating your emotions. As the day advances, there can be some tense or rebellious energy with us, and for you, it’s likely to occur on social and romantic levels as Venus and Uranus oppose one another in your solar fifth and eleventh house, returning to an aspect they first formed in September. Keep in mind, though, that disruptions or epiphanies arising now can lead to wonderful new opportunities. Finding a balance between pleasing someone and asserting your independence can be tricky but not impossible. Creatively speaking, this is a time for trying something new and breaking out of a rut. You may not know whether you want to be close to someone or prefer some space. If you’re feeling caged in, look for non-disruptive ways to enjoy a sense of being free and independent. Or, if you are dealing with flighty or unreliable people, consider ways to make your own fun so that you’re not as dependent on others to enjoy yourself.

Leo

The Moon spends most of the day in the sign just behind yours, dear Leo, and you’re inclined to keep a low profile. As the day advances, the Moon moves into Leo, and you seek out more interaction and feedback. As well, a Venus-Uranus opposition comes into play and acts to stir the pot! This can stimulate any latent needs for more space or leeway in a relationship or with family. Or, uncertainties about your work situation or the general direction you’re heading in life can impact your relationships. Venus is pulling you towards comfort and partnering these days, and Uranus towards independence and freedom. Avoid jumping to conclusions or making dramatic stands and sudden moves now, as these feelings are likely temporary and there is some volatility to the day’s energies that will pass quickly enough. Feelings stirred today can open your eyes to areas that need improvement or refreshment, however.

Virgo

The Moon spends much of the day in your social sector, dear Virgo, and you’re looking for something fresh to do or to inspire you! As the day advances, a desire for freedom from confining situations can take hold, particularly if you’ve recently been feeling too caged in or stagnant in your studies or relationships. The need for refreshment and improvement becomes clear, and it can relate to stirrings first experienced in September, but it’s important not to go to extremes with this with today’s somewhat volatile energies. It’s best not to make commitments if you are not one-hundred percent behind them, and it’s wise to attempt to discern between reactions and real feelings. Transportation and communication mishaps or differences of opinion might also be part of the picture now. However, if you don’t take others too seriously, or yourself for that matter, it can be a good day for interesting, progressive, and off the wall information, news, and ideas.

Libra

The Moon spends much of the day in your responsible solar tenth house, dear Libra, but as the day advances, energies are far from predictable with Venus in opposition to Uranus. The desire for beautiful things or certain possessions that you’ve been considering is stronger now with Venus in your solar second house these days. Today, you might find someone opposes you or news comes in that forces you to change your goals. Alternatively, there is a sudden desire to act out, buy something new, or throw something out. However, the best way to use the energy of the day constructively is to find a new way to handle a financial matter. The trick is to think outside of the box now, as anything too ordinary or mundane will only serve to frustrate now. If others are not exceptionally reliable, it’s important to grant others space and freedom, but perhaps even more important is to build and nurture your independent spirit. You are in the mood to experiment with different styles, products, and ideas now.

Scorpio

With Venus and Uranus reaching an opposition, dear Scorpio, today requires some flexibility, and relationships seem to need more freedom and spontaneity. While this aspect can feel a little chaotic or disruptive, you may quickly get the sense that you’re moving forward through it. Focusing on developing your independence rather than being at the mercy of others’ moods makes the most sense now. Keep in mind that others’ expressions of freedom can be raw or extreme. Someone may be seeking closeness or increased intimacy, while another seems to be chasing excitement or adventure, and it can be difficult to find a middle ground, but it’s far from impossible. There can be an unusual attraction or desire that comes on suddenly, or you might experience a sudden awakening to a relationship issue or awareness of something important about someone close to you.

Sagittarius

Venus and Uranus form an opposition now, dear Sagittarius, as they did in September, but now that Venus is retrograde, you may be returning to old freedom issues. People may not be exceptionally reliable in your life or changes of schedule might throw you off center. Changes may set you on a different train of thought or a new path that breaks you out of a rut, so keep your mind open. Do your best to identify areas of your life that require adjustments rather than simply succumb to sudden feelings or impulses now, and you’ll feel more in control. While there is an unpredictable feel to this energy, keep in mind that change may be in order, and disruptions might steer you towards positive things. If you can’t depend on someone, aim to work for yourself and your happiness as much as possible so that you don’t waste your time waiting for the rest of the world to deliver!

Capricorn

The day’s energies are a little chaotic, dear Capricorn, but can lead to meaningful stirrings. A Venus-Uranus opposition first experienced in September returns as retrograde Venus covers old ground, and you may return to past problems related to freedom. There can be a reawakening of a sense of aliveness in relationships now, but there can also be a spirit of rebellion or uncertainty. You are experimenting with your creativity perhaps with some mixed results, but the process is important. People seem to be breaking the rules today, and emotions tend to be on the fickle or uncertain side, which is not your usual cup of tea but can be stimulating in the end. Your best bet is to identify the areas of your life that have become too routine or predictable, and then consider making updates and adjustments that can genuinely benefit you.

Aquarius

The Moon spends much of the day in your work and health sector, dear Aquarius, and you’re inclined to want to keep a low profile so that you can get things done! As the day advances, however, a Venus-Uranus opposition comes into play, and its energies can keep you on edge. Those things in your life that have become too routine or lifeless may stand out for you now, and part of you itches for a change. Try to identify what’s making you feel restless and make a small difference or adjustment, as this can be empowering. If you’re craving new or different things or some extra personal space, it’s best to seek these things out with moderation and, if others are involved, with tact! Flexibility is important now. Instead, you may be craving some quiet time, and your personal life is keeping you on your toes, making it difficult to do so. Ideally, the energies of the day awaken you to a need for refreshment, and the feelings that emerge now can point you in the right direction.

Pisces

There is an adventurous spirit to the day, dear Pisces, that sometimes borders on rebelliousness. A Venus-Uranus opposition now can pull up some unrest, and attention spans may be short as a result! Changes may bring in some fresh air and point you in the direction of new interests, even if at first they may seem abrupt or unwelcome, so don’t discount them too soon. There may be changes of mind or plans to deal with, and they can be irritating but can also set you along a new track that suits you just fine. Do your best not to invest too much into opinions or schedules today for best results. An old relationship issue that first emerged in early September may resurface for your attention now. If you’re dealing with clashes, keep in mind that even through these conflicts, we can learn a lot about ourselves, and today’s energies point to little life lessons through interactions with others.

Today’s Lunar Phase

LUNAR PHASE: DISSEMINATING

Moon 135 to 90 degrees behind the Sun. 

Sharing our knowledge with the world is a major motivation at this stage. We believe we have gained much knowledge and wisdom through our experiences, and want to ensure others have the benefit as well.

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).
