Aries

Complicated feelings can easily bubble up to the surface today, dear Aries, with a Sun-Mars-Saturn configuration. Up and down energy levels can plague you now. Anger or resentment that you may have buried or brushed to the side tend to emerge, and while you should deal with them, don’t allow these feelings to set you back. Dealing with sudden desires is not about rushing to satisfy them, but rather identifying their source. Mars is currently transiting an area of your chart that rules all that’s hidden, under the surface, or left behind, and it has a tendency to stir up leftover anger or resentment that you may have buried or brushed to the side in recent times. Today’s aspects tend to stir the pot. Patience is necessary, as pushing may only serve to increase resistance. Your actions in the real world may not seem as effective, or they could go unnoticed, but self-knowledge helps you and prepares you for the next stage. Tap into your inner courage and find your passion, then think about ways to express it all. Drawing upon your creative power and using it to make important changes may come more easily later today.

Taurus

Today’s Sun-Mars square can highlight tensions and unfulfilled desires, dear Taurus. You might feel that others are meddling too much in your affairs, or focusing on practical matters can be challenging. It may be best to avoid pushing something that you can’t change and open up to the possibility of last-minute changes. There is some tendency to butt heads over issues that have been frustrating you. You can be feeling defensive with others or especially anxious to move a project forward, but it isn’t easy to find the support you need as fast as you may want it today. Ideally, some competitiveness stimulates you to do your best or to take care of business. Pacing yourself is hard to do with transits creating a sense of urgency today, but it’s important. Blocks or obstacles seem to slow you down, but they can be a blessing in disguise–slowing down may be exactly what you need to do right now.

Gemini  

Today’s Sun-Mars square is challenging on its own, dear Gemini, but is aggravated by tense aspects to Saturn. This combination tends to produce a feeling of urgency to fill your desires, but the more you push, the more you meet with resistance. Petty disagreements can very easily escalate into full-blown arguments or stand-offs today. You might easily become offended if others are not recognizing your competence or needs. Rushing and impatience tend to exacerbate or create problems now. You may feel that you need to fight to get your needs met or to be heard. Taking the high road is the most satisfying now, even if it’s not immediately obvious. As much as you want to do it all right now, it’s important to pace yourself. Later today, it’s easier to focus on the positives in your life on a mental level as Mercury heads into a harmonious aspect with Ceres.

Cancer  

Tension can arise today if you have too much on your plate or if you give in to the temptation to rush things, dear Cancer. A Sun-Mars aspect creates an atmosphere of urgency, but blocks are likely if you try to push something forward. This transit works behind the scenes in your chart, obscuring the real source of your discontent. You might be overconfident and take on more challenges than you can reasonably meet. Try to tackle things one at a time rather than wear yourself out, and avoid overexertion or stretching yourself too thin. Simple debates can quickly escalate into full-on arguments, and impatience can lead to further problems. Your appetite for pleasure or instant gratification is big today, but the results will not satisfy you in the long term. However, if you can channel excess energy into a constructive project, a work-out, or a brisk walk, you might get a chance to learn a little more about desires that seem to emerge out of nowhere. You might end up enjoying a detour from your usual routine.

Leo  

A complicated but creative Full Moon Eclipse occurs today, dear Leo, and it’s impacting romance, creativity, children, or hobbies in your solar chart. You’ll be seeking your joy this year and the next, and from some disappointments or misunderstandings in the coming weeks, a mission to improve your life can emerge. Today’s Eclipse can illuminate feelings and matters surrounding friends, romance, and personal goals, and there can be an epiphany or a strong urge to create, share, and express yourself. Powerful emotions rise to the surface. A big turning point can happen in your social life, or with a creative project. It’s a time for being brave and shedding some of your inhibitions, but do be mindful of what you communicate. Listen to your heart, but take your time before jumping into action. Your true feelings about a person, romance, or a project can flood your awareness, which can change everything! Or, letting something go makes room for a rush of new creativity flowing. You won’t have all the answers yet, but you’re on your way.

Virgo  

Today’s Full Moon Eclipse tends to pull up intense feelings, dear Virgo, and they can relate to your living conditions or arrangements, personal life, emotional world, home, or family. The need to make improvements surfaces now. Finding a better balance between your professional and personal life will be a theme this year and next, and this Eclipse can get the ball rolling. You could be refocusing and making career or life path direction changes, and discontent with your current state of affairs may be pronounced. This Eclipse brings emotions to the surface and can illuminate previously hidden or overlooked/ignored matters. There can be some level of chaos or state of flux now. Even so, you’re gaining new insight and a positive, fresh direction. There can be an epiphany about security, family, and how to manage your personal life. Once you discover those things that you’ve ignored or brushed aside, you can move on and forward. This lunation can mean house repairs, family drama, and possibly even career changes that affect home life.

Libra

A Lunar Eclipse occurs today, dear Libra, and influences the sector of communications and immediate environment in your solar chart. Your senses are stimulated to the max right now! You can experience a revelation of sorts, but you may want to avoid being too impulsive with sharing it. Allow yourself some time to sit with it. A writing or learning project can come to completion, and there can be publicity or promotion playing a significant role in your life now, or stress over a looming deadline. Watch for outrageous rumors, and try not to be too hasty with your movements and communications. Whatever develops under this Full Moon, it’s meant to push you forward, even if at first it slows you down. Watch out for processing too much information or sensory overload — take better care of yourself and be discriminating with what you take in. There is certainly a tendency toward emotional extremes, but a Mercury-Uranus transit in effect today helps you see the benefits of trying to look at a matter more objectively.

Scorpio  

Today’s energies are excellent for investigation and getting to the heart of a problem, dear Scorpio. Still, there can be some misunderstandings or delays to navigate. A couple of minor but nagging influences can challenge your perceptions or delivery, and there may be some tensions revolving around opinions and ideas. Try to look beyond words chosen to the intentions behind the communication. You might decide to get your mind off people-problems by focusing on something more manageable and predictable. Patience is needed now! Fortunately, a Sun-Chiron aspect helps you express some of your more complicated feelings with relative ease right now. It’s a good time for efforts taken towards healing, either physical and emotional. It’s also a strong time for appreciation of your unique perspective or talents regarding work and health. Research can lead to new or improved methods to better enjoy your daily life, whether it’s about work or self-care programs.

 

Sagittarius  

You may want to immerse yourself in a project or a person today, dear Sagittarius, but practical responsibilities that need more immediate attention can challenge this. Still, this brief blockage may strengthen your resolve to work things through. Fortunately, a Sun-Chiron aspect active today helps balance things out. You are standing out from the crowd, particularly on creative and romantic levels. It’s a fine time to believe in your abilities and quietly go about your tasks. A partner or friend could point you in the direction of creative change and inspiration. Sharing activities, ideas, and entertainment with people you care about can be especially healing and could help cement a bond. People are attracted to your more unique qualities and talents. It’s a good time to recognize your vulnerabilities and work with them in positive ways. Avoid worrying about your abilities and simply do your best and enjoy yourself for best results now.

 

Capricorn 

The more open and generous your approach today, dear Capricorn, the more rewards seem in the offing. A Sun-Jupiter trine helps you see the benefits of current projects and boosts your outlook, in general. There may be a romantic attraction that motivates you. You’re interested in growing and improving in your creative pursuits and connections, as staying the same doesn’t appeal. Your best self shines through in what you’re doing, and the day has every potential to be empowering. You’re likely to crave a change of pace or a break from the usual routine. You may be teaching in some capacity now, or you could be learning something new and different that’s inspiring. A new channel for expressing yourself might open up, and a surge of enthusiasm brightens your day and your vision of the future. Later today, a Mercury-Jupiter aspect comes into play, and routine tasks are unlikely to satisfy you. Your mind is wandering, or you’re dealing with a multitude of distractions. You may be seeking a higher purpose or something more satisfying related to work or routines and habits. While there can be some difficulties prioritizing, if you let go of this need, you’ll be in fine shape.

 

Aquarius 

This can be a fine day for cooperating with others, dear Aquarius, and good feelings tend to be reciprocated. There is a strong sense of mutual harmony and a general boost in feelings of peace and security with and through others. Still, you’re seeking a little more meaning from your pursuits or relationships than usual today, and you’re happy to see signs of improvement and growth. It’s a good time for tapping into your intuition. Radiating an expectation of success with people you love does wonders for you now, but so can some introspection. Later today, a Mercury-Jupiter influence suggests you may have too much information to make the bigger decisions, or the news you receive now is missing key points or is misleading. You’ll feel less stress if you let go of the need to find definitive answers today. Enjoyable activities are most relieving.

Pisces 

Today’s good for dreaming up big ideas that help boost your confidence, dear Pisces, particularly on social levels and related to your interests or studies. It’s a fine time for gaining trust or developing and growing a relationship or even a project. The Sun in your communications sector harmonizes with Jupiter in your social sector, and conversations are generous, open, and meaningful, although somewhat meandering later today. Networking can bring rewards or opportunities. You are more invested in your relationships today, and it makes sense to approach your day with an open mind and heart. A Mercury-Jupiter aspect also active today suggests that you may have too much to think about to the point of stress, perhaps related to your personal/home life or friendships. Meaningful, spirited conversations are favored over small talk, which can fall short right now
