We may feel a heightened sense of urgency today as the dramatic Leo Sun harmoniously trines electric Uranus. Hidden tensions suddenly come to the surface, which can upset the status quo. However, we are also excited about the possible changes and may even take unnecessary risks to make something happen. The flighty Gemini Moon joins spontaneous Mars midday to raise the stakes, but things calm down when the Moon enters quiet Cancer at 9:11 pm EDT.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You are in your element today as the Sun in your 5th House of Fun and Games connects with brilliant Uranus in your sign. Instead of doing things in a familiar manner, you are motivated to try something new. Your mind is buzzing with exciting ideas now, and you are itching to see how they translate into the real world. Obviously, you would like to succeed, but you’ll be quite satisfied if a good time is had by all.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You have a lot of details to handle today, but you’ll probably figure out a way to do something more fun instead. For example, rather than finishing a project you might channel your creativity toward planning an escape from work. Ironically, the craziest ideas are the ones you’ll most likely get away with now, so don’t be afraid to step outside of the box.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You may get a chance to do something that is not part of your regular routine today, but it will probably turn out differently than you think. Perhaps you are invited to attend a social event, only to discover that your assumptions about those in attendance need to be revised. Fortunately, you are able to shift gears easily and adapt to unusual circumstances. You may be pleasantly surprised as long as you remain open to the unexpected.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You’re not thrilled about being thrust into the public eye today, but it’s probably a good idea to hide your annoyance. Overcoming your resistance enables you to surprise others with your stellar performance. However, playing your part can bring recognition by your peers or even a raise in pay, so don’t say no just because the thought of being on stage makes you feel uncomfortable.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
This can be a most memorable day for you because you can get away with being as weird as you want. Your need to do something totally outrageous may reach a point of no return today, provoking you to take sudden action. But rather than being sensitive to other people’s needs, maverick Uranus connects with the Sun in your sign, encouraging you to do as you wish. Nevertheless, there is still an unspoken boundary. Don’t go too far over the edge now or you’ll have to spend time later cleaning up the mess you make.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You have something that you need to do at work today and you won’t let someone get in your way without putting up a fight. Fortunately, you can emerge as the winner if you are honest about your intentions and don’t scatter your energy. Don’t think twice about standing up for yourself, even if you would rather avoid conflict. Hopefully, the skirmish will be over quickly and you’ll be able to get on with your job once the air is cleared.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Unconventional friends can inspire you today because you view them as your “Get out of Jail Free” card. You may feel restrained by the current social circumstances, making it difficult for you to escape the boredom of the day. However, it’s easier to step out of the box when you’re hanging out with people who are innovative, radical and eccentric. Nevertheless, it’s a mistake to expect someone else to make your move for you; take a chance and let your freak flag fly.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You can be the hero who saves the day if you are willing to move beyond your fears and share your unorthodox solution to a problem at work. Although you might expect others to reject your idea because it’s so wacky, they may quickly approve because they like how unusual it is. Don’t hold your punches now; state your case as clearly as possible and then let go of your attachment to the outcome. You may be pleasantly surprised with the results.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
It’s time to resurrect your dreams of taking a holiday to an exotic destination now that the Sun is visiting your 9th House of Travel. Its easy trine to irrepressible Uranus in your 5th House of Play turns an unrealistic fantasy into a reachable goal. You don’t need to fill in all the details yet; just declare your intentions and start making plans now. Before you know it you’ll be on your way.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You may need to deal with a few surprises in your personal life now, but ultimately everything should turn out just fine. Your need for stability on the home front runs up against your desire for more personal freedom. Normally, you aren’t thrilled by the idea of unexpected change; however, today you are relieved when the stuck energy is finally released. Don’t hold on to old fears because they will only stand in the way of your potential happiness.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Your key planet Uranus forms a superconductive trine with the Sun in your 7th House of Partnerships today, electrifying your communication. You have an opportunity to express yourself in a way that might reveal a part of you that you have been hiding. Fortunately, a relationship can be strengthened now when you take a risk and share what’s in your heart, even if your feelings are radical. Don’t hold back; this is a chance for you to be uniquely you.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
An exciting breakthrough at work is possible today and it could ultimately affect your finances in a positive way. You have an excess of innovative ideas now that you can bring to the job. But don’t waste time making plans or telling others what you intend to do. Your intuitive channels are wide open, so get busy and follow your instincts.
The jittery Gemini Moon can heighten our senses, diversify our interests and increase our overall curiosity. We are easily distracted by anything that appears to offer new information or a different perspective. With restless Mars also in Gemini, we are prone to scatter our energy, start several projects and perhaps leave them unfinished. Thankfully, the Moon’s harmonious midday trine with disciplined Saturn enables us to concentrate for a while.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You are naturally inclined to be a pioneer, exploring unknown territories and courageously doing things for the first time. Today’s fidgety Gemini Moon encourages you to add even more activities to your already busy schedule. Although you might enjoy running off in several different directions at once, narrowing your focus now and concentrating on one task at a time will enable you to be even more productive.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
The Moon’s visit to your 2nd House of Self-Worth today motivates you to reevaluate your possessions and what they mean to you. A realistic assessment of what you have versus what you need can produce some pretty interesting results. You might realize that it would be easier to get by with less, but are unwilling to make the adjustments necessary to change your lifestyle. Although no immediate action is required, a fresh perspective will do you good.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
It’s hard for you to decide what’s best for you today because the Moon in dualistic Gemini has you seeing double. Even after you have made your choice, a single destination morphs into two distinct possibilities — just like the many-headed Hydra who grew two heads every time one was cut off. There’s no need to answer every question posed to you; some dilemmas are better left unresolved for now.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You have the ability to sound more certain today than you actually feel. Although you may be lost in self-doubt, your co-workers might not realize that you are so unsure of yourself. Ironically, you could receive support from others and be more successful professionally if you share your current concerns with a trusted friend, rather than trying to hide your insecurity. Being honest now really is the best policy.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You Lions usually prefer to play in a pack, but today you might want to go your own way. You like the idea of doing things as part of a group, yet you also need to maintain some autonomy or you will feel trapped by the very same people that you want in your life. Don’t sacrifice your individuality to be accepted by others because you will likely need more freedom, rather than less, over the next few days.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You might feel as if you’re struggling to maintain your sense of purpose today. You have a very clear sense of what you need to do, but circumstances may pull you in several different directions at once. While you prefer to drill down on the details of what you already started, responsibilities demand that you spread yourself thinner to cover the workload. Recognize your limits; staying within them now will make everyone involved happier.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You may have grandiose ideas about what you want to do in the future, and adopting a common-sense approach actually enables you to live out your dream. However, this is not an overnight project; your long-range planning might take months to manifest. If you find yourself getting restless now, remember the old adage, “Rome wasn’t built in a day.”
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Sometimes when you dive into an emotional situation, you do so with such intensity that you lose perspective. However, today you’re able to be fully involved without being hooked by someone else’s melodrama. Your rational approach gives you a cool head now, so others may lean on you even more. It’s a gift to share your thoughts as long as you don’t attempt to control what happens next.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You are a champion at gazing far off into the distance, but not as good sometimes at seeing what’s right under your nose. A close friend or partner may attempt to change your perspective by inundating you with information about something that’s occurring right now. Unfortunately, you may think that the current events are merely a distraction from your more evolved perspective. Don’t be so quick to judge others; instead, be open to what they can teach you in the present moment.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You may want to talk today instead of doing your work, but too much idle chatter will only lead to trouble. Thankfully, the interactive Gemini Moon’s current visit to your 6th House of Daily Routine is stabilized by self-restrained Saturn. Although it’s hard for you to settle down now, it becomes easier if you stay focused on your immediate goals. Remember, your actions have more impact than your words.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You are buzzing with creative ideas today, but all your innovative thinking could be for naught unless you take the time to turn your thoughts into action. However, initiating a new project doesn’t ensure automatic success; you must have the necessary persistence to finish whatever you start. Following through with your intentions is possible if you keep your eyes on the distant prize of success.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Although you might like to space out and lose yourself in a daydream today, there’s way too much going on for that to realistically happen. You may be drawn from one project to another, without having enough time to settle into any of them. Instead of working yourself up into a state of high anxiety, remember that this level of noise won’t last. In the meantime, set your fantasies aside until you have taken care of business.

The Sun in Leo
Courage and the force of will are primary influences while the Sun visits Leo. In some, a need for recognition may increase dramatically. An air of friendliness should be pervasive.

Those who are willing to assume leadership responsibilities and risks are likely to be richly rewarded during this period. Those with more aggressive personalities should be wary of becoming too domineering.

Seeking answers to “hidden truths” is likely to produce positive results during this aspect.

Mars In Gemini

Mars Sextile or Trine Neptune

Uranus In Aries
The astrological influence of Uranus is measured in increments of 7 years. What this means is that the effects of Uranus influence an entire generation. Day to day the Uranian influence may be imperceptible, but when the period is viewed as a whole the impact of Uranus is likely to be strikingly apparent.
Iconoclasm, independence and self-sufficiency are likely to be major themes during this period. Traditional values will be challenged. Those with a pioneering spirit will flourish.
Uranus Square Pluto
A mental restlessness and the need for complete personal freedom are possible influences of this aspect. In some the need for total autonomy may be so strong that they will challenge any attempt to subdue their independence.

Strong economic gains can be made during this period. Pluto in Capricorn favors those who are able to make logical decisions and devise pragmatic solutions to the challenges before them.
The determined Taurus Moon prompts us to stand firm in our convictions, but we may be growing tired of holding on to a particular point of view. It becomes nearly impossible to remain so stubborn once the Moon shifts into adaptable Gemini at 12:34 pm EDT. While this shift into the sign of curiosity increases our mental activity, helping us process more information, an erratic Mercury-Uranus aspect can shake things up and promote carelessness.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
At first it seems as if others are telling you to slow down today, but this familiar advice to an impulsive Aries isn’t about your speed. The emotional Moon’s entry into your interactive 3rd house encourages you to react instinctively, but your intuition can lead you astray now. Although you’re tempted to respond right away, it’s smarter to deliberate first. Waiting for a while before speaking your piece will make everyone happier and leave you without regret.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You don’t want to do anything until you’re ready to do it. If someone else attempts to change your timetable, you might overreact. Try softening your position today; it’s not helpful if you become so locked into your own schedule that you can’t respond rationally to an intriguing opportunity. Accepting an unexpected invitation can bring an exciting social interaction that improves your outlook on the day.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
The Moon’s entry into multifaceted Gemini can be quite confusing, especially as it raises your feelings closer to the surface. This normally wouldn’t be a problem, except it appears that you want contradictory things that might require you to proceed in two different directions. However, you might be more successful by postponing your decision until your mental clarity returns. If you can be comfortable with your ambivalence, then nothing needs to be changed for now.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Your anticipation of the future is likely more intense now than the events that actually follow. However, no matter how you look at it, you’re in for significant changes. Don’t panic; it may take time to put the big pieces in place. During your preparation process, it’s crucial to stay in the present moment and handle each situation as it arises, rather than worrying about what you might have to do tomorrow.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You are ready for a bit of fun now, even if you still have plenty of things to do. Keep in mind that it isn’t wise to avoid your responsibilities, for they will continue to multiply over the next few days. Grab a bit of enjoyment when you can and then get back to work. It’s all too easy to overextend your lunch break, so let the good times roll for a limited amount of time before returning for another round of serious business.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You have a lot to manage today as the Moon moves into your 10th House of Social Responsibility. You want to do things right, but you may get distracted by interesting conversations with unusual people. There’s nothing wrong with being curious as long as you’re willing to take the time to ask questions in a sensitive manner. However, don’t be overly concerned about what others think; just concentrate on your path to success.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
It’s hard to know if you should be jazzed about what’s coming next or concerned that you recently missed your chance. You can sense that big changes are lurking just out past your perceptual limits. Nevertheless, you cannot wrap your mind around this elusive situation today. Although you may need to face your anxiety, remaining flexible is more important than following a specific agenda.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
The Moon’s shift into your 8th House of Deep Sharing today gives you a chance to dig beneath the surface. However, the lightweight Gemini Moon could still leave you feeling slightly unsatisfied. Pushing too hard can set you up for disappointment now. While others may be able to match your passion, they won’t be able to sustain it. Be persistent; your patience will pay off when everyone else catches up with you in the days ahead.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You stand to learn something important about yourself when you actually take the time to listen. But you may grow bored of someone else’s stories today as the restless Gemini Moon rattles your 7th House of Relationships. It’s ironic that another person can get on your nerves, yet also offers such an important lesson. A quick escape is tempting now, but staying present in the dialogue can ultimately change your perspective for the better.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You are easily distracted today and may be unable to stay focused on your work. It’s hard to keep your thinking in perspective because your mind is jumping all over the place. Don’t try to suppress your runaway thoughts by force. A smarter strategy is to grant yourself permission to ride a carousel of ideas and feelings. Think of this as a mini-getaway; your job responsibilities will be patiently waiting for your return.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You could be asked to offer your impression about someone you know. But the level of energy it takes to engage in a discussion — even in just sharing your ideas — might be more than you want. Your avoidance tactics won’t likely be very effective now, so you may as well stop trying to put off the inevitable. A little procrastination is harmless, but too much can lead to unnecessary trouble. Ultimately, it’s best to just say what’s on your mind.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Your thoughts are running astray today and you can frustrate yourself by thinking that you have the power to rein them in. However, it’s possible to calm your nerves by diverting your attention. Watch a movie or just relax to your favorite music. And remember, these distractions are not long-term solutions; they simply shift your focus for a while. Be patient; the nervous energy will run its course and settle down over the next few days.
Once you get through the main challenge of the day – a caustic, 45-degree skirmish between Mars in Gemini and Jupiter in Taurus (12:08AM PDT) – the universe pretty much gives you a wide-open Sunday to do whatever you want. Yes, any Mars-Jupiter joust can be somewhat jarring and provocative – physically, emotionally and mentally. Therefore, don’t think the Mars-Jupiter encounter is a trifle. Nevertheless, the Sun parallels the Moon at 8:14AM PDT – an alignment that has similar energy to their monthly union in the zodiac. As a reminder, parallels and contra-parallels are solar, lunar and planetary alignments calculated (North and South) relative to the Celestial Equator rather than the Ecliptic (Earth’s path around the Sun). The parallels and contra-parallels reveal a more vertical, power-oriented focus than the zodiacal aspects – which are more relationship-oriented because they are calculated in a horizontal manner along the Ecliptic. Utilize the grounded, practical and pragmatic vibrations of Taurus Moon today to get all your cylinders clicking in gear. Give stubborn behavior patterns the boot. Return to physical fitness routines with enthusiasm. The love boat enters exotic ports of call tonight as the Moon in Taurus approaches a supportive, 60-degree rapport with Venus in Cancer (forming exactly at 1:45AM PDT on Monday). Social activities and the creative arts can also become your personal playgrounds.
The Sun fires into the midsummer sign of Leo the Lion, marking the first day of a new astrological month. In the northern latitudes we feel the radiant heat warm our hearts, prompting us to let our love lights shine. Meanwhile, the Moon enters earthy Taurus at 12:57 am EDT, reminding us to stay in touch with our senses. However, a sobering Mercury-Saturn aspect and a fantasy-prone Sun-Neptune alignment alert us to the contradictions we may face.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Although it’s been difficult to reestablish your confidence lately, things are now beginning to improve. Naturally, a shift in your attitude won’t occur overnight, but you could feel more positive day by day. Just let the current events unfold while affirming that better times are on the way. Believe it or not, the Sun’s entry into your 5th House of Creativity today may be enough to chase away the clouds.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
The Moon’s return to your sign can put you in touch with your feelings while the Sun’s entry into your 4th House of Home and Family turns on the streetlights for your walk down Memory Lane. But there’s no use in holding on to childhood perspectives anymore, especially if they reinforce your concerns about scarcity. Remember that the universe is overflowing with unlimited possibilities, so show up with a smile and do what you can to transform your fears into love.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You might overcompensate today and show only your very best side. But your positive attitude could come across as false if you sound blindly optimistic. It’s of no value to hide the truth now, even if it’s more than you think others can take. Don’t get bent out of shape over the wrong things; stick to the facts and let others take responsibility for their reactions.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You might feel relieved as the bright Sun leaves your sign, taking the spotlight off you and allowing you to work quietly behind the scenes. But you don’t want too much isolation because the Moon slips into your 11th House of Social Networking today. You wish you could just make up your mind and follow your agenda, but you’re being pulled in two totally different directions. Ultimately, you will be happiest if you go with the flow now instead of trying to hang on to the illusion of control.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You are naturally resistant to change and may not want to engage with what’s coming around the next corner. Nevertheless, your anticipation continues to build now because you know that you’re on a new course and can’t wait to see where it leads. The Sun’s shift into your sign today initiates a highly active phase for the next month. But don’t rush the creative process; everything will unfold exactly on time.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You aren’t happy if someone is keeping information from you today, but thankfully you can handle the situation skillfully because the willful Sun and trickster Mercury are traveling through your 12th House of Secrets. Even a difficult experience can quickly morph into a positive one if you exude confidence, rather than doubt. You can change the game now by preemptively exploring the hidden realms of your subconscious. Happiness comes from the clues you find buried deep in the shadows.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You want to be free of the responsibilities that have been holding you back recently. Fortunately, the brilliant Sun’s entry into your 11th House of Friends encourages you to act boldly in social situations. There’s no need to panic and take a risk, but creating a sound plan that is followed by decisive action can be an unbeatable combination.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
It’s tricky if someone assumes that you will always drop your personal priorities when asked. You wouldn’t mind offering your help, but you don’t appreciate the pressure of being told what to do. There’s no need to say yes and jump right in. Others will get by without you immediately coming to the rescue today. Taking time to consider all your options before responding may be enough of a cue to convey that you don’t want anyone to take advantage of your generosity.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Perhaps you are dreaming about the future in order to avoid dealing with the promises you made. Your intentions may have been sincere, but your time is running short now and you don’t know how you’re going to fulfill your obligations. Keep in mind that even the smallest molehills seem like mountains today. Don’t make any sudden changes to your overall strategy yet; wait a few days to see how the new landscape takes shape.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Having faith in yourself is crucial, but too much confidence inflates your ego. Even the most surefooted of you goats can slip if you’re moving too fast, and an overabundance of bravado today might be enough to make you careless. Don’t give reality a chance to teach you a lesson in humility. You’ll reach your ambitious goal if you focus on each step along the way.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Everyone is playing a part in your movie now that the dramatic Leo Sun is in your 7th House of Others. Unfortunately, you may be growing weary of someone’s affected behavior. You crave sincerity and truthfulness, but could feel as if you’re currently being shortchanged in your relationships. It will be a lot less stressful if you accept the fact that others are probably giving all that they can. Be appreciative of what you have today, instead of wishing for more.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You would like to have more free time at your disposal today, but you may have already overcommitted yourself in the chore department. Running errands and helping others could prevent you from following your fantasies. But don’t complain about your obligations; just doggedly finish what you can. Thankfully, if you apply yourself diligently during the day, you may have time for more pleasurable activities in the evening.
There’s a mix of fiery adventurousness and earthy caution that affects your social life this weekend. This cosmic pattern emerges on Friday night when the Sun enters creatively courageous Leo while the Moon moseys into bucolic Taurus. Expect contrasting cues and fluctuating feelings as you shift between Leo’s desire to touch hearts and take chances in self-expression and Taurus’ preference to remain comfortable by staying grounded with predictable activities and people.
One thing these signs have in common is that they occupy the middle of their seasons, which makes them fixed signs, the stubborn ones that are the most resistant to change. Now that’s fine if you’re all set to cuddle up on the couch with your sweetie and not leave the house for two days. But if you’re in the real world dealing with real people, overcoming the childlike urge to stamp your feet and refusing to budge will go a long way to reducing conflict.
Still, everyone can enjoy the dramatic side of Leo by being more romantic than usual. Slowing down to communicate with greater focus and attention is one way to bring more passion to a relationship.
The Moon in comfort-seeking Taurus also favors a more easygoing pace as this sensual sign is made for enjoying life’s sweet delights. Good food, silky textures, soothing sounds and tender touch are especially alluring now. Simply spending time with someone you love outside in nature (or any comfortable setting) cultivates a cozy connection.

We experience a more subdued Aries Moon today, since its most significant aspect is an opposition to authoritative Saturn at 11:53 am EDT. The enterprising Aries Moon encourages us to take risks as we search for ways to bring more excitement to our lives. But we may not be able to free ourselves from previous obligations because Saturn’s presence places the damper on our fires of enthusiasm. Thankfully, the heaviness dissipates later in the day.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You don’t need to wait until the Moon visits your impulsive sign in order to take an unnecessary risk. However, today’s Aries Moon provokes you to say yes quickly, before considering the alternatives. The Moon’s midday opposition to stern Saturn in your 7th House of Relationships indicates that a critical friend or partner could come down on you pretty hard. Don’t jump to defend yourself against someone else’s judgmental perspective. Remember, there might be a real lesson here for you to learn.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
Perhaps you’ve been quite busy trying to keep up with everything that’s happening, so taking some time to be by yourself today sounds like a good idea. But now as you try to retreat it seems as if others won’t leave you alone. Although everyone appears to have a different idea of what you should be doing, it’s up to you to resist outside pressure by clearly establishing your boundaries.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Even if today is a workday, you may be more interested in the social aspects of your life than performing your job. You might be tempted to take a long lunch, waste time in idle chatter with your coworkers or look for other ways to fulfill your need for interaction. Unfortunately, your boss or some other authority figure could step in and prevent you from escaping your duties. Be smart; finishing your task list early in the day will leave you time to play later on.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You’re uncharacteristically eager to take charge at work today and others may be surprised with your actions. Although sometimes people assume that you are shy, you’re quite willing to be in control when you know where you are going. Just be careful not to indiscriminately share your feelings with everyone. Finding the right person to confide in can make all the difference in the world.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You might not be satisfied with what’s happening in the present moment, tempting you to escape into your dreams. However, withdrawing into fantasies isn’t a viable strategy for achieving long-term happiness. Thankfully, the courageous Aries Moon in your 9th House of Adventure prompts you to make changes in order to bring the excitement you seek back into your life. Nevertheless, you will still have to do what others expect of you prior to putting your big plan into motion.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your friends and associates might have a hidden agenda today. On the surface, they may continue to support you if you retreat from the social scene in order to delve deeper into your own feelings. However, you can feel the pressure from their unspoken demands, provoking you to pull away even more now. One way to ameliorate the current situation is to let others know that you just need some time alone and will reconnect with them once you are ready to return to the game.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Someone close to you may seem a bit too aggressive as the Moon visits brash Aries and your 7th House of Others today. Thankfully, a lunar opposition to stern Saturn in your diplomatic sign enables you to clearly set the limits you need to feel comfortable. However, you could overreact and inadvertently push the other person away. Relationships require give and take, so remain open to continuing communication as long as your boundaries are respected.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You won’t likely sit around doing nothing today with the irrepressible Aries Moon activating your 6th House of Work. But you could be so enthusiastic about getting through your to-do list that you rush into your tasks before you consider the smartest approach. Unfortunately, you may waste time and energy without finishing what you start unless you’re willing to slow down, rethink your strategy and begin anew.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
It feels like a playday to you, but promises that you made to others might prevent you from having too much fun. You may believe that everything would be fine if only your friends and coworkers ease up on you. But their expectations probably aren’t that unreasonable. Instead of scheming to escape or complaining that life isn’t fair, see how creative you can be while fulfilling your obligations.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
The Moon’s opposition to your key planet Saturn puts you in touch with the emotions that often get in the way of your success. Ambitious Saturn’s presence in your 10th House of Career motivates you to set high standards and do whatever it takes to accomplish your goals. But the impulsive Aries Moon leads you to believe that you can arrive at your destination faster by taking a few unauthorized shortcuts. Avoid the potential for frustration by doing things right and giving yourself plenty of time to finish your work.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You may be running around in circles today without having much to show for all your efforts. Instead of continuing to spin your wheels, stop for a while so you can reestablish your connection with the ground. Naturally, a more practical approach will help, but restarting slowly is the real key to gaining traction. You’ll be able to deliver on your promises as long as you don’t blindly rush ahead.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You may benefit now by adopting a steady approach to a financial problem that’s been bothering you. But ignoring the facts and attempting to solve the dilemma by taking aggressive action won’t be useful as the Moon in your 2nd House of Money runs into a tense opposition with stern Saturn today. Don’t try to shift the blame for a difficult situation onto anyone else. Take responsibility for your position and establish a sensible plan to alleviate the current pressure.
