Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
A Sun-Jupiter square aspect today could rile you up or trigger restlessness, dear Aries, convincing you that bigger is better, when it’s more likely to be too much right now. Areas of your life where you may have overextended yourself are likely to relate to your daily affairs, communications, studies, and other busy work. If you’ve been putting too much pressure on yourself to do it all, it’s time to focus more on priorities. You may be taking stock of what you’ve accomplished and consider whether you’ve done or achieved enough these days. There could be some moodiness if your personal “report card” isn’t up to par. You can have much difficulty concentrating and focusing early today, and overlooking important details can be a consequence. However, remember that balance is key. Try not to move forward on a new idea right now, at least not too quickly, and avoid taking on too much in an effort to catch up or get somewhere fast. Spreading yourself out too thin will not lead to success, so finding that balance is crucial. Fortunately, as the day advances, you readily draw upon memory or wisdom to solve a problem or advance a goal. You’re getting a better sense of where to go or what to do next.Taurus
Early today, there is a tendency to go overboard, dear Taurus, as the Sun and Jupiter form a square. Whether it’s about wanting to impress someone you love or simply because you’re in a good mood and want to share, the temptation may be to go over the top. Other possibilities are spending too much or making big statements or promises that will ultimately be difficult to fulfill. In truth, you can have a good time and open your mind to possibilities today, but it’s best to know your limits. Gambling is unlikely to pay off right now. If you’re investing yourself in the wrong things, moodiness can ensue. Simplifying is probably best, even if going big seems more attractive! As the day advances, pacing yourself comes more naturally. In fact, you can feel quite motivated, and getting organized can be satisfying.Gemini
With today’s square between the Sun and Jupiter, dear Gemini, you might experience a conflict between nurturing your strong need for security and safety and your similarly big desire for personal space and a sense of autonomy. While you can imagine all sorts of things you’d like to accomplish, part of you is holding back, or the demands of home and family are keeping you feeling tied down. To manage this conflict, consider ways to manage your expectations, strike a compromise, and find a better balance. Be kind to yourself by not expecting so much that you forget to enjoy the moment. Simplifying or giving a little in both areas of life will serve you best in the long run. As the day advances, you feel a stronger sense of responsibility, and you more readily focus on emotional and practical priorities. You’re interested in making things run more smoothly, and you’re looking at the important details that need attention in this regard.Cancer
With today’s Sun-Jupiter square, dear Cancer, circumstances have you looking at the bigger picture and assessing whether recent projects are heading in the right direction. With this transit in play, over-optimism can leave you vulnerable to self-deception. Watch for faulty judgment, as you may not be seeing all the facts. Try not to take on too much, particularly regarding serving and helping others, which could be excessive. It’s a question of time and energy — you need to take better care of yourself. You may swing from wanting extra emotional space and wanting to share more of yourself. Aim to get all the facts before you jump into something new or a promise. If you’ve become a little too short-sighted recently due to a hectic schedule, you’ll feel the need to broaden your horizons. As the day advances, you know the value of getting practical things done. You might do your best reflection or musing with a partner or good friend.Leo
The Sun’s square to Jupiter today imparts a feeling that we can do more than we actually can, dear Leo. While good intentions can be behind this sense, it’s better not to bank on promises made now. A friend can promise a little too much than they can reasonably deliver, and the same may be true of an idea! A project or plan might show signs of weakness. While this can rain on your parade now, you can also decide to work on problem areas and make improvements rather than give up on something important to you. It’s best to hold on to your money and perhaps wait for a day when you see things more clearly to make a big purchase. The day advances with more purpose. You are happy to make improvements. There are solutions to problems to be found later today, and they’re very practical ones.Virgo
Today’s transits tend to magnify discontent, dear Virgo, but as the day advances, you find your groove. A Sun-Jupiter square early today can have a way of bringing to your attention areas where you’ve been overdoing things or in over your head. The Sun in your sign has been encouraging a personal or self-improvement focus in your life. On the other hand, Jupiter has spotlighted performance, ambition, or career and accomplishment. You want to do both areas well, but something has to give! Allow yourself to dream and think big, but try not to overdo things, as you’ll end up too exhausted when genuine opportunities present themselves. As the day advances, there is a growing need to mingle, reach out, share, and express affection. Constructive conversations or activities with a partner or friend can be in store.Libra
The day shapes up to give you a pleasant sense of a mission, dear Libra, but early today, it can be hard to feel satisfied with the status quo. A part of you can be very restless and hungry to experience something different, but you could be without a plan or definite direction. You could also be tied to obligations or service to others. Guilt could be holding you back from doing your own thing. You might also be feeling a little insecure or unsure of yourself now. It’s important to be extra sensitive when exchanging opinions, as a debate can become much more right now. For best results, be discreet. You may not have all the information necessary to solve a problem. As the day advances, you can have a strong desire to do something productive on the home front or with family. You are in the mood to make something happen or solve problems to feel ahead of the game.Scorpio
If you’ve been expecting more from a recent endeavor or even relationship, dear Scorpio, this can be when you question your next step. This morning’s Sun-Jupiter square suggests some drama or exaggeration in your life. You may notice increased pressure on you from friends or networks, or you can struggle to balance your intimate and social life. If this aspect plays out on an emotional level, you can feel torn between wanting closeness and needing some time and space to detach. Consider that waning enthusiasm is temporary. While thinking in big terms is fine, this transit inclines you to be immoderate or overshoot. However, as the day advances, you might enjoy applying yourself to special pursuits. It’s a good time to communicate effectively.Sagittarius
A Sun-Jupiter square today suggests desires that are temporarily hard to fulfill, dear Sagittarius. Instincts tell you one thing, and people tell you another today, making it difficult to arrive at clear decisions. Pushing too hard towards a goal can wear you down or overwhelm you, which is counterproductive. Do your best to avoid skipping steps because you’re anxious to get the ball rolling. Pacing yourself comes easier as the day advances, but it can come in handy all day if you can manage it. However, opening your mind to new possibilities and ideas is worthwhile now. As the day advances, your appreciation of those things that ground you grows. You’re gravitating to what makes you feel secure and keeps you focused on the moment.Capricorn
Early today, there can be some pressure on you, dear Capricorn, with a Sun-Jupiter square in play giving you the sense that you don’t have the time or energy to accomplish your larger goals. Avoid skipping important steps to reach an ambition, and consider pacing yourself instead. Becoming overwhelmed by things to do will not help you achieve more, and right now, the desire for freedom from restrictions and routines is strong. Avoid taking on more tasks, as they only add to your worries. The day advances with engagement, but less pressure! In fact, you can benefit from employing some strategy. Constructive conversations can figure strongly. Your personal impact is strong, and you’re coming across responsibly.Aquarius
With a Sun-Jupiter square today, dear Aquarius, you may be swinging from a generous mood to a more serious frame of mind. Jupiter has been encouraging you to take a risk with your heart or your creativity these days, but the Sun is stirring the desire for deeper bonds and connections. This mini struggle can come to a head now. Watch that you don’t take risks that are over the top, particularly with money, as instincts for financial matters may be out of step temporarily. You might also be a little unsure of someone’s feelings for you. There can be some confusion about whether you want light or intense interactions. The day advances with a focus on strategy instead of expectations, and it feels right to pace yourself and make plans. Good energy is with you for sorting, particularly on practical levels. You may be taking care of loose ends on a financial or business matter.Pisces
With today’s Sun-Jupiter square, dear Pisces, going overboard is a potential problem. You may think you can keep the peace by pleasing everyone, but this is a taller order than you think! This transit energizes your sectors of home, family, and partnerships, and any of these things can place demands on you. Restlessness is possible if you feel overwhelmed with things you want to do or if you’re caught up in a dilemma that leaves you wondering what your next step should be. Your need for security and a sense of belonging is stronger than usual, but it’s important to take independent steps to achieve these rather than wait for others to fill these needs. Aim to transform discontent into productivity, a task that becomes far easier as the day advances. Later today, you not only enjoy focusing on realistic personal goals, but you thrive with them as your focal point. Motivation builds as you have a stronger sense of where you’re heading.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
