Aries
The morning’s Moon-Saturn square can serve as a brief and somewhat irritating reminder of a responsibility, dear Aries. Ideally, it motivates you to strengthen an area of your life. You’ll find it easier to detach yourself from comparisons or societal expectations as the day advances. Your willingness to plumb the depths of a matter can work to your advantage. Venus begins its transit of your partnership sector today, generating delightful energy for enhancing one-on-one relationships in the weeks ahead. You magnetize reasonable, helpful, and pleasant people into your life during this cycle that lasts until October 23rd this year, or more pleasing, agreeable energy into existing partnerships.

It’s an excellent time for pairing up, seeking counseling or doing some of your own, mutually beneficial deals, and enhancing or attracting a partnership.Taurus
Love feelings seem to dominate today, even if satisfying them is not entirely straightforward, dear Taurus. The Moon spends the day in your partnership sector, and others give you food for thought. While today you’re not wholly as independent as other days, you’re finding it easy to connect. Your ruler, Venus, changes signs today, entering your work and health sector, where it will stay until October 23rd. This influence can bring more pleasure and harmony to your daily life, including your work or daily routines and health pursuits. You might enjoy getting your life in order, producing, organizing, and servicing. Or, you could make pleasant contacts through your work or routines.

You feel more accomplished through cooperation and sharing but should watch for glossing over problem areas in the weeks ahead.Gemini
The Moon spends the day in your work and health sector, dear Gemini, and you gravitate to productive or practical activities. However, Venus enters your solar fifth house today, bringing charm, graciousness, the power of attraction, and a bigger urge to interact until October 23rd. This chart sector rules self-expression, creativity, romance, children, entertainment, and other channels through which you express your need for play and reinforcement. It’s an easygoing transit for you. Others appreciate you, and you more often follow your heart’s desire. You approach the world creatively and romantically and take more pleasure in leisure activities and hobbies.Cancer

The Moon transits your sector of joy all day, and this transit is about coming out of your shell. Venus moves into your solar fourth house today, however, bringing more artistry and harmony to your family and home life in the weeks ahead. You are especially sensitive to your environment during this cycle that lasts until October 23rd, and you might seek refuge from demanding situations or quiet time more often than usual.
