Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

You may be dealing with extravagant impulses, dear Aries, and whether you battle or give in to them, there is a need to keep perspective now. You may be feeling restrained or restricted, and this can be at the heart of sudden desires and whims. As the day advances, though, you can feel satisfaction and empowerment when you think about matters realistically, particularly about a relationship or financial situation. Simplifying your life is important and can help you feel back on track. Making lifestyle changes is successful now, largely because your heart is in it!

Taurus

As Venus and Uranus oppose one another today, dear Taurus, you might be torn between the need for another’s company and feedback or approval, and the desire to go your own way and act independently. There can be some emotional impulsiveness to deal with now. Be sure you’re making your own choices rather than merely reacting to others. While relationships require a fresh approach, you can also delight in stability and steadiness now. You may be drawn to someone who is wise and mature. This is a good time for finding or establishing a relationship with a guide or teacher, or for bonding with someone through your values and beliefs. Developing useful skills is taking more precedence over innovative new techniques now, especially as the day progresses.

Gemini

You tend to make changes to your relationships or mix things up if you’re feeling overwhelmed or confined early today, dear Gemini, as Venus and Uranus form an opposition. This can be about doing too much people-pleasing recently and now wanting to regain a sense of independence. Look for ways to enjoy more personal freedom while keeping the important things, including essential responsibilities, free from disruptions. As the day advances, though, you’ll find stability and even predictability especially comforting. Getting organized and taking care of business can be enjoyable, and you’re likely to come up with great ideas about doing business, making money, or improving methods and efficiency.

Cancer

Early today, there can be some tense or rebellious energy to deal with, dear Cancer, especially on social and romantic levels. Disruptions or epiphanies arising now can lead to meaningful change and increased creativity. Try to find a balance between pleasing someone and asserting your independence for best results. This is a time for trying something new and breaking out of a rut. Mind you, as the day advances, you’ll find routine comforting and following some rules or getting something into order satisfying and even pleasurable! Realities faced now can lead to acceptance of things as they are, which feels good today.

Leo

This morning’s Venus-Uranus opposition has a way of stirring the pot, dear Leo, as areas of unrest can emerge rather abruptly. Venus is pulling you towards comfort and partnering these days, and Uranus towards independence and freedom. Aim to adapt to interruptions now, but don’t allow yourself to be at the mercy of others’ unreliability. As the day advances, it’s far easier to concentrate and focus on making yourself happy. Practical matters and tasks tend to fare well, and you’re seeing great value in people who’ve been there for you. It’s a good time to do something for the people you love and appreciate. Today, it’s actions and gestures that go over well, as we’re not particularly impressed with words alone.

Virgo

Early today, a desire for freedom from confining thoughts or situations can take over, dear Virgo, particularly if you’ve been feeling caged in, too comfortable, or stagnant in your studies, routines, or relationships. You can benefit from keeping things fresh but it’s important not to go to extremes with this. As the day advances, feelings even out and affections stabilize. Simple gestures and actions seem to work best. Conservative moves are favored. While you can begin the day wanting to branch out but lacking a plan for doing so, you’re likely to end it feeling satisfied with working on projects that you already have going for you.

Libra

This morning’s Venus-Uranus opposition can rile you up, dear Libra, particularly regarding possessions, clutter, or entertainment and comfort issues. Circumstances may seem to force a change if you’ve been clinging too tightly to habits and things. As the day advances, though, you may want to settle into a routine or work on refining a project that you already have going. You can make some nice progress around the home or with family, and you more clearly appreciate the practical value of material things, focusing on those that are most useful or that will grow in value. You are a little more discriminating and prudent with money and resources.

Scorpio

This morning, Venus in your sign opposes Uranus, dear Scorpio, and relationships seem to need more freedom and spontaneity. A sense that you’re moving forward is likely to emerge from disruption, though, particularly as the day advances. Focus on developing your independence rather than be at the mercy of others’ moods for best results. Later today, it’s far easier to focus on the practical, particularly those things that truly make you happy. Shiny, new things are no longer quite so appealing. You might thoroughly enjoy fulfilling your responsibilities, and you come into your own as you manage your expectations.

Sagittarius

Early today, Venus opposes Uranus, demanding some spontaneity, change, and freedom, dear Sagittarius. These are designed to keep things fresh, but can be a little abrupt. Changes in your schedule lead to a bit of chaos, in fact. Keep in mind that change may be in order, and disruptions might steer you along a different path that ends up serving you well, perhaps even pulling you out of a rut. Stay on top of this by figuring out in advance where changes are best made. As the day advances, it’s easier to manage your expectations. Venus is currently transiting your privacy sector, and you seem to need extra time to process and digest recent experiences. Today, Venus is both supported and challenged, complicating feelings. Some level of comfort comes from learning the truth about a matter, or by coming to a perspective that is more realistic than the one you’ve been hanging on to. Accepting things for what they are and appreciating them is the key now.

Capricorn

You’re not especially tolerant of situations that seem to confine you early today, dear Capricorn, particularly on creative and social levels. There can be some unreliability, distractions, or changes of heart to manage. Identify which areas of your life have become too routine or predictable, and then consider possible updates and adjustments that can benefit you. As the day advances, you feel increasingly more empowered by facing realities and truths. Focusing on one special task at a time is comforting and beneficial as Venus and Saturn form a harmonious aspect.

Aquarius

A Venus-Uranus opposition serves to awaken in you a need for change and refreshment, dear Aquarius, but a sextile between Venus and Saturn encourages you to keep your feet on the ground. There is part of you that is itching for a change of pace, and if you don’t recognize this within yourself, you might end up stirring up conflict without actually scratching the surface of your discontent. Aim to be flexible, especially since changes of plans or unpredictability in others can figure strongly early today. As the day advances, though, it’s easier to rectify problems or clear up misunderstandings. There can be some helpful advice coming from behind the scenes or in your private world, and there can be benefits through your work or from others.

Pisces

A Venus-Uranus opposition can serve to pull up strong and perhaps rebellious feelings today, dear Pisces. Patience and attention may be short, or there can be a tendency to pull away from situations that feel too confining or limiting. 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. As well, as the day advances, Venus connects with Saturn and being grounded in reality is increasingly more attractive. You can be motivated to tackle tasks that you’ve previously let slide. It’s a good time for showing your loyalty to someone.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes

Today’s Emphasized Signs of the Zodiac

VIRGO STRONG

Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.

LIBRA STRONG

Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental.

SCORPIO STRONG

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

Today’s Elemental Balance

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 STRONG

Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.

Today’s Modal Balance

The modes are balanced.

Today’s Lunar Phase

LUNAR PHASE: NEW MOON

Moon 0 to 45 degrees ahead of the Sun. 

This is an energetic, impulsive, and subjective period of time. We are looking for new projects and opportunities. 

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on September 12th:

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).

SQUARE CHIRON  Orb 1°58′ Separating

There can be fears now of not being competent or effective enough to meet our responsibilities, or we could find it hard to strike out on a unique path, again due to fears or insecurities. The desire to break from the status quo is strong, but we may not have the necessary confidence to do so. We may have difficulties empathizing with others and understanding ourselves.

URANUS

URANUS IN TAURUS

(1934 – 1942) We approach money and personal possessions in new ways and learn how to free ourselves from certain material constraints. Innovative ways to make ourselves comfortable emerge. We’re less inhibited about expressing sensuality, self-love, body love, and pampering. We’re challenging what we previously valued. There can be abrupt changes with money, valuables, possessions, and income that lead to a reshuffling of priorities or values. Income might come from non-traditional sources or ventures. We’re bringing progressive ideas to the world of business. New ways of doing business, as well as making, viewing, and handling money are likely.
