Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
While you may have felt some inner unrest or vague tensions related to matters you’ve been avoiding recently, dear Aries, you’re now feeling a lot more clarity. People more often jumpstart your thinking processes at this stage with Mercury transiting your partnership sector, and your instincts improve for relating. Today, you might enjoy a conversation with someone on the same mental wavelength as you. Mercury and the Sun align in the sign opposite yours, and mental energy is intense and in the spotlight. Relationships themselves can be the primary topic of discussion. In truth, you can sometimes benefit from a bit of emotional detachment, and right now, conversations might happen that may not engage your emotions, but that can be very constructive. New clarity or a turning point in a relationship might also be in focus, and it’s a good time to let others take the lead in conversations.Taurus
Some clarity arrives today, dear Taurus, particularly as you sort out your feelings and needs. Communication can help center you and relieve your mind regarding your troubles or concerns. With the Sun and Mercury aligning in your work and services sector today, an idea can fully bloom, and thoughts about your health, daily affairs, chores, or work can be insightful. Conversations or incoming news now can lead the way to new beginnings. A work or health matter may gain traction or clarity today, and you tend to do a lot of reasoning things out and attending to details now. Details tend to serve you well today as you remember important things or fill in some blanks. You’re in great shape for making plans and lists, editing, refining, and talking things through.

You’re taking more pride in your work, ideas, and beliefs today, and others are taking note! Creative projects could reach a turning point, or there can be a romantic revelation. Observations made now are likely significant, and assessing recent ideas can be beneficial. Still, the Moon in your solar fourth house also awakens a desire to get comfortable, and taking some moments to surround you with what feels happily familiar is helpful.Cancer

Learning is quick and easy, and new ideas can be exciting. It might help to pay particular attention to details, news, and ideas presented around you today.

Words and clear thoughts come readily today, dear Virgo. Money matters and practical affairs are in focus, with the Sun and Mercury coming together in your resources sector. As further details emerge, new insights, ideas, and perspectives on these issues can figure strongly. This transit can help bring objectivity to an issue or clarify a financial, ownership, or respect matter.

The Sun and Mercury head into alignment in your sign today, dear Libra, and very soon, a Solar Eclipse will occur in your sign in just two days. It can be a time of powerful mental energy, but soon, it’ll be more about intuition. Today, verbalizing your desires can be in sharp focus. In fact, you can feel driven to express yourself. You can experience important realizations, epiphanies, and clarifications. An idea comes into full bloom, or the information you’ve been waiting for arrives. You may see details you missed in the past. You’re inclined to make an impact, or others seem to be talking about you! There could also be opportunities to connect with helpful people. While it’s a time of mental renewal and increased decisiveness, watch for being too objective in situations that require more sensitivity today.Scorpio
Today’s transits stir the feeling that communicating will help solve problems, dear Scorpio. Communication can also help you sort things out, or organizing your thoughts seems particularly worthwhile. Today’s Sun-Mercury alignment happens in your soul sector, and it’s a time to verbalize or sort out a private matter. You’re inclined to analyze and process recent events or ideas, and ideas coming to you can be highly significant. Revealing conversations or details emerging can prompt a turning point of sorts. You have a lot on your mind today! You are better able to rationalize a matter that, before today, was difficult to express or understand. Even though you can be a little caught up in your private world, the Moon spends the day in your connected solar eleventh house, and your social affairs can be on your mind and close to your heart.Sagittarius
Today’s Sun-Mercury alignment stirs strong mental energy, dear Sagittarius, and it can help you see a plan or friendship with greater clarity. You might enjoy playing with emerging new ideas for long-term pursuits. Friends have something important to contribute or say right now! It’s a time for feeling motivated and inspired by your dreams or visions of the future. As well, you might arrive at a fuller understanding of a long-standing issue. You can enjoy exciting ideas through a friend, your connections, or networks. Look for friendship and expansion opportunities. While you should probably wait to put new plans in motion since we’re just behind an eclipse, it’s a powerful time for ideas. You might feel more confident about speaking your mind now, but consider that it’s all too easy to communicate on a mental level, forgetting your heart as you do.Capricorn
Communications can be lively, stimulating, and refreshingly open, dear Capricorn. Mercury and the Sun fall into alignment, helping you see career and life path goals or professional matters and responsibilities more clearly. Your view is more balanced and logical, and while this perspective may not take everything into account, it’s valuable. Verbalizing your thoughts gives them life and helps you understand them better. Your powers of reasoning are mighty right now, and there can be meaningful conversations or communications that help you turn a corner, at least on a mental level. We are only a couple of days behind an eclipse, meaning it’s not yet time for new launches, but ideas are worth your time and attention.Aquarius
There can be a real buzz of ideas with you today, dear Aquarius. In fact, illumination can occur on a mental level. Mercury and the Sun align in your spirit sector, and conversations, news, and thoughts arising now can help clear up misconceptions, ultimately helping you make definite plans. Blanks fill in, mainly related to studies, personal interests, publishing, or a communications project. You can be excited to share your ideas or opinions. An important piece of information can arrive that completes a picture. It’s helpful to remember that while conversations can be interesting right now, an emotional or sensitive element could be missing. Additionally, we are just two days behind an eclipse, and it’s not yet the time to push a new beginning. Still, this doesn’t stop today’s revelations from being pivotal.Pisces
With today’s exciting Sun-Mercury alignment, dear Pisces, playing around with ideas is a more enjoyable, light-hearted experience. In fact, you could solve a mystery or problem with this conjunction occurring in your solar eighth house. You might discover new information about an intimate relationship or financial issue. If you need to sort out a complicated matter, this is an excellent time to do so. It’s not so much a time for deep connections as it’s suitable for looking at deeper issues with more objectivity and reason. In fact, detaching yourself just enough from emotions can be beneficial from time to time, and this exercise is valuable today. You’re mentally sharp, seeing details you may have missed or that weren’t available in the past. An important conversation or observation may occur now. Still, with only two days until an eclipse in the same sector of your chart, wait before you push an important project forward. Today is more about ideas than it is about taking action.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
