Aries

Built-up resentments can emerge in disruptive or subtle ways at times today, dear Aries, and it’s a good idea to recognize this pattern so that it doesn’t drive your behavior. Fortunately, a Sun-Chiron aspect is imminent, influencing the day, and it helps balance things out. At the very least, it aids you in finding the lesson in your experiences. Your more unique and valuable qualities are in view. Others might appreciate your wise advice or perspective. While you can be rather sensitive to criticism today, given time to recollect yourself, you might find that it serves to motivate you to move along a more authentic path. Your communications are warm and received well. The Moon’s alignment with your ruler, Jupiter, in your privacy sector today helps you recognize the need to let go and enjoy some quiet time or a break from material pursuits.

Taurus

Some fear or worry can lead to undue pressures, stress, and impulsivity in spots today, dear Taurus. You could sense that others are holding something back from you, or you might feel in the dark about a matter, but it’s a good idea to draw upon your patience and ride things out. You’ll learn more if you relax and observe rather than push, prod, and full-on investigate a matter. Fortunately, a Sun-Chiron sextile influences the day, especially as it progresses, and it helps you learn from your differences. It’s also a good influence to find more fulfillment in your work or projects. Your approach to problems, whether they’re emotional or practical, is holistic and intuitive. The Moon aligns with Jupiter in your social sector, pulling up strong and mostly pleasant feelings about friends, goals, hopes, and dreams.

Gemini

Try not to be your worst enemy today, dear Gemini, as can be the inclination with a Sun-Pluto aspect active. Left unchecked, you might end up sabotaging the very things you feel you want the most with controlling or compulsive behavior. Avoid extremes and showiness now for best results, and be patient that things will unfold as they should. Tensions between going it alone and needing others’ support can rise. As the day advances, you’ll find it easier and more natural to express yourself. If there’s a relationship to build or repair, this is a good time for building bridges. Friends, in particular, put their faith in you, and this feels great. Networking efforts can be fruitful, and you can readily be yourself with others. People gravitate to you, and some may feel that your company has a healing effect on them. With the Moon and Jupiter aligning at the top of your solar chart, you might enjoy some appreciation or recognition.

Cancer  

There is some tendency for us to behave compulsively today if stress is left unchecked, dear Cancer. Watch for a perfectionist attitude or going to extremes to make something work for you when it may be better to enjoy what you already have. Avoid complicating your life when a more straightforward, easier path is probably available. You might want to avoid confrontations until you know where you truly stand on the issue. Fortunately, you also benefit from a Sun-Chiron aspect as the day advances, and it’s suitable for building bridges and making connections. Sharing something personal with a friend or opening your heart up can help heal you and cement a bond. Fixing things with someone goes deeper than mere patchwork now, and supporting others lifts your spirits. This is a time to draw upon experience, inner power, and wisdom and apply it for good, personally or professionally. The Moon’s monthly alignment with Jupiter happens today, and with Jupiter’s recent sign change, it’s happening in your spirit sector, encouraging you to seek out new vistas. It’s a beautiful time to open up and broaden your perception of the world.

Leo  

The Moon spends the day in your partnership sector, and you can be in a social frame of mind, dear Leo. Even so, you’re also in an excellent position to take action on an emotional matter. It’s easier than usual to tackle core issues rather than skim the surface. Indeed, there can be some restlessness today, but it’s the kind that can lead you to great discoveries. Your attention to friendships, networks, and experiences that remind you of your social needs and happiness is powerful and beneficial. You’re learning to pay more attention to your dreams and wishes, as you have spent too much time putting the hopes and plans of others ahead of your own. It’s a time for improving your connection to your friends or community and the quality of your life in the process.

Virgo  

The Moon heads into your communications sector for a couple of days, dear Virgo, and you seek mentally engaging activities. However, with Venus and Saturn harmonizing today, it’s a good time for realistic assessments related to your health, work, or financial matters. You can more clearly see what needs to be improved or changed, and making adjustments comes with few if any regrets. Meeting responsibilities feels satisfying, and you might apply wisdom or good advice with success. It’s a good time to repair or boost relationships in simple but effective ways. Showing affection through loyalty and reliability is well-supported right now. Work that requires analysis or research is likely to go especially well.

Libra

Mercury moves into harmony with your sign after spending time tucked away in your home sector, dear Libra, and it can feel quite liberating as you become less guarded. With Mercury now in your entertainment, romance, and pleasure sector, it’s more comfortable and natural to express your ideas and opinions. You’re more communicative and friendly during this cycle that lasts until March 15th, and you’re inclined to seek intellectual entertainment or mental stimulation. There can be a stronger need for communications and movement in a romantic relationship. Later today, a theme of impatience or disagreement can emerge, although it’s rather quick to evaporate. It’s best not to speak too soon or without thinking while it lasts, as what you say may not represent how you feel. Disruptions now can stir up new ideas, but it’s best to watch for abrupt moves to avoid complications. If you are impatient with others instead of assertive and direct, then you run the risk of unnecessary stress.

Scorpio  

Mercury begins its transit of the sector of your solar chart that rules heart, home, and family, dear Scorpio. Thought processes are inward and intuitive during this cycle that lasts until March 15th. There can be a lot to learn about (or through) family and close loved ones in the weeks ahead. Thoughts and conversations often turn to domestic affairs, family concerns, or the past. You are not as communicative in the outside world, and you may not feel quite as understood or “heard” at this time. You may be a little more guarded than usual with your thoughts and ideas. However, it’s another story in your personal life, which is far busier. Later today, there can be some tensions if you give in to pressures to push a matter or to rush through things. There can be some abruptness in communications or actions, which might lead to unnecessary complications. Kept under check, you may find ways to break out along a new path of expression. Try not to rush things, and don’t let others boss you around, and you’ll have a better chance of resolving problems.

 

Sagittarius  

Mercury completes its transit of your resources sector, dear Sagittarius, and now enters your communications sector. As the planet of communications, it feels right at home there! This cycle that lasts until March 15th helps you make sharper assessments and gain some mental clarity. It encourages reaching out, making connections, picking up new interests and skills, and sharing your ideas. Learning, teaching, studying, and conversations flow naturally now. Later today, Mercury forms a hard aspect to Mars, which can generate some tension if you give in to pressures to rush something through. Impatience can be a problem, particularly with ideas. Simplifying or focusing on one thing at a time may help. Watch for hasty moves and jumping too quickly to conclusions. Slowing down just a little can ultimately get you where you want to go, if not faster, more smoothly.

 

Capricorn 

Mercury moves out of your sign and into your resources sector today, dear Capricorn, where it will stay until March 15th. This influence is beneficial for your practical affairs–you’re bringing more intelligence and attention to matters related to finances, valuables, possessions, and security or comfort. These very things can also be strongly on your mind in the weeks ahead! You can pick up useful, practical information, mainly because this is the kind of information you seek most. Later today, Mercury and Mars form a challenging square aspect, and it’s best not to rush conclusions or statements. It’s far easy to say something you later regret under this influence. It may not be easy to relax temporarily, but tension might push you to take care of something you’ve let go. Taking something as an intellectual challenge may be your best bet. Moderation and patience are key, even if they’re difficult to put into practice.

 

Aquarius 

The Moon spends the day at the top of your solar chart, inclining you to nurture your ambitions today, dear Aquarius. You’re especially aware of your influence and reputation now. Also today, Mercury enters your sign, and until March 15th, you’re finding your voice and making snappier decisions. It’s a self-starting and sometimes restless cycle. You may need to put a little extra effort into making time to relax. Otherwise, it’s a strong period for mental clarity. You prefer to take the lead when it comes to mental or intellectual tasks rather than consult others or collaborate. While Mercury transiting your sign is a mostly helpful influence, it forms a square to Mars today, and you should watch for the tendency to jump the gun. It’s best not to rush now — problems may result from pushing something too quickly. Try not to give in to pressures to say or do something in haste. It’s also possible that family or home matters can conflict with your plans, or people close to you may be annoyed by your attention to other things. There may be a disagreement that requires putting egos aside to resolve.

Pisces 

Mercury begins its transit of your privacy sector today, dear Pisces. Until March 15th, your decision-making skills and thought processes tend to be more intuitive, inward, or solitary. It’s a good cycle for processing recent experiences, as well as for reasoning your way through issues that you’ve left unfinished or pushed to the side. You can arrive at a greater understanding of your life, and you might help others with words of advice and wisdom. You’re looking at the past from a new perspective and paying more attention to your private life. Even so, Mercury forms a challenging aspect to Mars later today, and it can fire you up to take care of a problem area. However, it’s better to avoid rushing words or actions now. Unresolved matters can weigh on your mind, which can distract you or incline you to rush through communications. Tense or rushed speech can, in turn, lead to unnecessary complications or misunderstandings. There might also be competitiveness with others that irritates rather than motivates. Try not to put plans into motion because you’re impatient–wait until you’re confident and have time to put more thought into them.
