Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
You might come to an important realization about work and health on mental, emotional, and physical levels today, dear Aries. If you’ve ignored your need for more rest, solitude, and time to catch your breath, circumstances might now push the matter! It’s a time to consider ways to regenerate and strengthen emotionally, but some obstacles are possible with a Mercury-Saturn opposition in play. Certain areas of your life encourage flow and release, but blocks or delays can also be part of the picture. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, aim to slow yourself down, and don’t hesitate to enlist help. Taking a small break from a problem can help you get a new perspective and ease the pressure. While remembering your obligations and knowing your limitations can be helpful and practical, harping on them won’t help. If someone is distant or critical, do your best to power through by reaching a compromise, if possible, or finding the right balance between duty and pleasure.Taurus
After yesterday’s eclipse, dear Taurus, you can be in an emotional frame of mind but also quite motivated to start fresh. While there are some beautiful opportunities to discover your true feelings on a matter, Mercury and Saturn form a challenging aspect today, and you could feel that responsibilities to others are getting in the way of your favorite activities. Even so, remembering your obligations and limitations can be helpful and practical. You’re working on building lasting, respectful friendships, and in the process, you may be giving up some connections that no longer serve your purpose well. Today, these areas can be frustrating from a short-sighted perspective. Lending an ear without expecting to arrive at a concrete solution to problems may be your best bet now. Aim to stay flexible and light-hearted to avoid letting small things get to you.Gemini
Your feelings and intuition may be telling you something today, dear Gemini, but obstacles or distractions are possible in the first half of the day. Certainly, it can be difficult to see things clearly with your ruler, Mercury, opposite Saturn. You could be feeling a little alone with your responsibilities or position. The elements of your work or responsibilities that are not very flattering can be in the spotlight. As well, feeling the weight of your duties makes unwinding a challenge. This transit tends to bring out the flaws, criticisms, and naysayers. When it comes to others’ feedback, try to tune out the negative elements, if any, and focus on constructive ones. Similarly, paying more attention to your own communications can be prudent, as they may need refinement for healthy and productive interactions. Fortunately, personal appeal is strong as the day advances, even if there are some professional bumps to smooth over.Cancer
Yesterday’s eclipse highlights and intensifies your needs for exploration and more spirited living, dear Cancer. Fitting special activities into your day makes sense, and while you can’t do so all in one shot, you can begin to work towards a better balance. However, today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition can reveal flaws or obstacles, particularly related to communication, transportation, and equipment. Temporarily, the negatives may be more prominent than the positives. People could deny your requests, shut down your argument or perspective, challenge your viewpoint, or otherwise make you feel shut out and not respected intellectually. Try not to let these things dictate your next move, as that would mean losing touch with your own convictions. For the best results, aim to look for the lesson from critique or resistance, and try not to take delays too personally.Leo
After yesterday’s eclipse, dear Leo, you could be arriving at a plan for changing how you depend on others. Still, today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition can temporarily keep you feeling tied down. Financial or emotional blocks and challenges may help you discover essential needs or information about yourself and your relationships. Taking small steps toward realizing a dream will be very satisfying now, even if you must overcome an obstacle before moving forward. For now, you may feel it’s challenging to establish a comfortable dialogue or deeper connection. A temporarily closed mind or fear can lead to defensiveness in the people close to you, and this is not the kind of atmosphere conducive to healthy or genuinely productive conversations. There can be a problem arising that needs fixing, but aim to stick it out. Taking care of problem areas can help free your mind.Virgo
Relationship issues or needs can be coming to light, dear Virgo. Circumstances are such that you’re getting in touch with feelings you’ve kept at bay, which can be highly revealing. Energies now encourage you to reach a compromise or find a better balance if you’ve been overdoing things. However, today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition can point to temporary mental tension or blocks. Someone might be unduly critical or frustratingly unresponsive, or a delay enters the picture and slows you down. Instead, a slightly uncomfortable truth or reality may emerge, but when you think about the long view, it’s good to be in the know. For best results now, focus on what you can control rather than worry too much about things that are out of your hands. Be sure to keep your mind open in the event there’s something to learn about moderation or practicality today. Indeed, you could arrive at clever workarounds as a result of challenges.Libra
Demands are high, and emotions are on the strong side, dear Libra, with the energies of yesterday’s eclipse. You might see the flaws in plans or projects, but this opens you up to a new approach and a stronger position once you’ve handled the details. A Mercury-Saturn opposition today can enforce an edit or correction. Problems related to work, health, or routines can weigh you down. There may be demands on you, or people around you are taking things too literally. If you’ve been doing far more than your share, it may be time to take steps to make changes. Typically, the best way to handle a Saturn aspect is to be easy on yourself and humble with others. But even with some blocks or delays, you are more courageous about embracing and expressing your feelings.Scorpio
Your personal life and projects deserve some special attention, dear Scorpio, and feelings are full, rich, and hard to ignore! Don’t speed ahead just yet, but don’t ignore the calling to explore your needs and feelings. Still, a Mercury-Saturn opposition in play today can point to worries or frustrations. Watch that you are not focusing too much on negative issues, and avoid complaining unless it’s something that truly needs addressing, as conversations can too quickly take a wrong turn today. It could be a time for cutting back or reminding yourself of limits, being careful not to stifle your creativity in the process. There may be some reason to stop what you’re doing and face a challenge or block today. Delays or criticism may be irritating, but they can motivate you to firm up your work or ideas. Aim to take the good things from the experience and discard the rest!Sagittarius
Today’s energies remind you to find ways to recharge so that you can give other areas of your life your best, dear Sagittarius. Today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition can bring your attention to a delay, disappointing result, or critique. While this can put a bit of a damper on things, the sooner you handle a duty, the sooner you can enjoy yourself. You may deal with touchiness in others, and responsibilities can weigh more heavily on you, or there can be frustrating disapproval. With this transit in play, fears and insecurities could mar conversations, or there can be a mental disconnect with someone close to you. It’s probably wise to save important ideas or topics for a better time. Or, try to come to a compromise where you choose your words more carefully but express your discontent nonetheless.Capricorn
After yesterday’s eclipse, dear Capricorn, emotions you may have pushed to the side can emerge. A change of plans or a sudden awareness of an outstanding matter can lead to a scuffle of activity. However, it’s best to gather your thoughts and formulate your plans. Today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition across your communications sector can point to negative feedback or delays to manage. Timing may be a bit off, and you might decide to be careful with what you say and how you say it. A slight difference in opinion can become something much more, for example. Decision-making can be challenging, and people may not be jumping on board regarding your ideas temporarily. The best way to deal with this energy, which can repeat in different but just as frustrating ways in the weeks ahead, is to aim to humble yourself and take lessons from slowdowns, blocks, and even criticism.Aquarius
Current transits tend to spotlight a matter of money or your resources, dear Aquarius. It’s a time for recognizing your needs, and with more clarity about your feelings, you’ll have a better idea of your next step. Situations may serve as a nudge to get on top of your finances. A more intense desire for security and comfort can also be a motivator. However, a Mercury-Saturn opposition today can point to concerns or tensions related to money, ownership, or boundaries. A misunderstanding or block can leave you feeling deflated. You could be frustrated with people who seem to be making light of your fears or concerns. Financial decisions are not straightforward at the moment, and you may decide it’s best to conserve your energy rather than argue a point or push an issue, as people don’t seem open temporarily. Aim to work on strengthening your position for the best results. As well, consider that you might discover new and improved methods as you advance.Pisces
With last night’s Full Moon eclipse in your sign, dear Pisces, emotions can bubble to the surface, pointing you to areas of your life that need more tender loving care. You can have epiphanies about your needs, especially if you’ve been primarily focused on others recently. Today’s Mercury-Saturn opposition can point to a block or obstacle to manage, however. There can be some feelings of being unappreciated. You might also see more flaws in recent plans, and someone could seem frivolous and impractical, or they may not be taking you as seriously as you would like. Temporary deflation or discouragement is possible now. Ideally, your workarounds for delays can help as you see new ways of doing things and relating with others. Still, it’s best to avoid giving unsolicited advice or listening too closely to it if you receive it, as people can be more sensitive than usual.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
