Aries

The Moon spends the day in your solar eighth house, dear Aries, and you may want to pour your energy into a special activity. However, today’s energies are a little tentative with Mars, your planetary ruler, square Saturn influencing the first half of the day. There could be a slowdown if you’ve been rushing ahead too fast, which is quite likely with energetic Mars currently transiting your sign! A delay, criticism, reality check, or discouraging moment can break the flow temporarily. You can be feeling an intense desire to press forward, but obstacles seem to appear as you do. Try not to react to blockages with impatience, as it’s not going to support your cause. Aim to pick yourself back up and strengthen your plans and yourself. This way, you can get back on course better equipped to weather small storms.

Taurus

With the Moon in your partnership sector today, dear Taurus, easing off your personal plans can be good for you as you take more time to understand the role of others in your life. A Mars-Saturn square influences the first half of the day, and it can mean you’re dealing with obstacles or slowdowns. A block or discouragement is possible. Instead, there can be a sense that you can’t express yourself, your desires, or your frustrations effectively. You could be feeling that you’re stuck in the past, unable to move forward. With Mars in your solar twelfth house, considering the past is important, but it’s about putting challenging situations behind you, not focusing on those things you can’t control. Stress is possible about past events, but this may only be a bump in the road, and it may get your to slow down to make important changes. Energies may not be as free-flowing as you’d like, but as the day advances, you feel increasingly less blocked.

Gemini  

Today’s Moon encourages a focus on work and health, dear Gemini. You’ll do well to take care of some business, particularly related to getting your daily routines and affairs in order. The first half of the day can pull up some blocks. A Mars-Saturn square can have the effect of slowing you down if you’ve been pushing too hard or too fast in a particular area. Difficulties with trust and power dynamics that have been festering might now emerge in challenging ways. Bottled up anger can challenge your health and well-being while exploding can be destructive as well. Aim for moderation, and you’ll be in the best place. Do your best to respond to challenges with patience and mindfulness. Success depends on your ability to focus on getting work done rather than worrying too much about how far away a goal might be.

Cancer  

The Moon spends the day in your fun and creativity zone, dear Cancer, encouraging a playful approach. However, the first half of the day has a serious tone. A Mars-Saturn challenge reminds you of limits, rules, or obstacles, most notably through a person or relationship. This means that it’s time to slow down, reconsider, review, and adjust. It’s typically not the time to throw in the towel, although part of you might feel like it. There can be difficulties with a partner or superior today, or you may feel that you’re misunderstood or blocked from pursuing your goals or asserting your wishes. Watch for defensiveness, which won’t serve you well. Try not to waste too much time on anger. Blocks are temporary and may very well be helpful, as redirection can pull your attention to flaws that need correcting before going forward. Look for the lesson, and then focus on doing your best with what you have in front of you. Haste makes waste today.

Leo  

Today’s Moon encourages you to slow down and catch your breath, dear Leo. Other influences in play may force the matter! A Mars-Saturn square is tense but can lead to important releases. You may be dealing with stubbornness in others or blocked plans, but keep in mind that the harder you push or the stronger you come on, the more resistance you’re likely to encounter today. Try not to waste time and energy on things that can’t be changed. Aim instead to concentrate on improving your connections. Influences today seem to demand that we follow the rules or moderate our behavior. If you’ve been pushing something too hard, a delay or obstacle may emerge now that slows you down. This is a time for putting in the extra effort without immediate rewards, knowing that this will serve you best in the long run..

Virgo  

You’re more inclined to want to stick with familiar situations today, dear Cancer, with the Moon’s move into your home and family sector for a two-day stay. In the first half of the day, it’s all too easy to misjudge things, particularly with time, money, and energy requirements. It’s best not to overcommit, or even to commit at all just for now. Concentrating on creating more harmony in the home, whether through seeking balance in your interactions with close loved ones, or adding artistic touches to your home environment, can be successful if you’re flexible. It’s natural at this time of the lunar month to gravitate toward comfortable settings. As you take a breather and reconnect with your feelings or roots, you build faith in yourself.

Libra

The helpful and nurturing side of your nature is called upon today, dear Libra. Feeling good about your home life is a desire or theme now, and if you’re feeling discontented, you’re especially motivated to make changes and improvements. The Moon aligns with expansive Jupiter in your home and family sector, encouraging special attention to these matters. You recognize the qualities and habits that support or delay your growth. You can be dreaming up long-term, master plans for a business or home, or you’re inclined to focus on making your current living conditions more joyful. You’re seeking a stronger sense of belonging or connectedness, and it’s a great time to get in touch with any needs and desires you’ve suppressed. Later today, the Moon enters your sector of joy, and then promptly aligns with Saturn there. You’re attracted to spending time doing productive things, finding it soothing and satisfying. You can have great success working on a creative project or refining a skill, studying, or adding structure or form to a project.

Scorpio  

The Moon joins with generous Jupiter in your communications sector today, dear Scorpio, helping to boost your mood and sunny up your disposition. You’re in terrific shape for guiding, connecting, and learning and warmth can figure strongly in your interactions. Your ideas and kindness are a big draw. It’s important to watch for overloading your schedule with Jupiter involved since its optimism can lead to a sense that you can handle more than is reasonable. You have a fabulous ability to show others where there’s common ground. You might also be feeling very enthusiastic about a project, idea, or interest. Later today, the Moon heads into your home and family sector for a couple of days, meeting Saturn. You’re likely to focus on the practical side of your domestic world or personal life. This transit puts the spotlight on your needs for safety, security, and familiarity. Gather your strength rather than exhaust yourself or scatter your energies now for best results. Because you’re more sensitive than usual, seek positive or calming atmospheres.

 

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

Taurus

While the Moon in your sign all day feels fresh, dear Taurus, the day’s energies are better for biding your time. Aim to avoid taking on new projects or commitments so that you don’t overload yourself. Your focus tends to diffuse. It may not be easy to do what you want because people who need help or support are taking priority. Or, uncertainties in your social life or with a project can leave you feeling a little unsettled today. New ideas and promises coming to you right now may not have much permanence. Aim to be patient and accept a roundabout way of getting where you want to go or wait for a better time to pursue your goals more directly. The Sun and Mercury are encouraging you to settle in, nest, and get comfortable. As they clash with other drives this week, it’s best to make adjustments that allow you to round out your experiences even with your comfort needs prioritized.

Gemini  

The Sun and Mercury are encouraging your attention to the lighter side of life, dear Gemini. You’re curious and seeking some variety. Right now, these drives clash with your desire for more meaning and attraction to deeper connections and projects. It may not seem easy to, but finding a better balance is possible if you set your mind to the task. Nevertheless, today’s energies are a little too murky for big moves. Instead, it’s a time to slow down and process, digest, and enjoy yourself. Aim to slow your approach just enough to see where you might be making errors or overlooking your true feelings on a matter. Listen well to what your intuition has to say, but wait for clarity since it’s not the time for clear answers. A minute by minute approach seems ideal.

Cancer  

Venus enters your sign today, dear Cancer, after spending an unusually long time in the sign just behind yours. The previous transit has given you ample time and opportunity to process your feelings and connect with your emotional and romantic past or to nurse some old hurts before gathering the strength to move forward. Now, with Venus in your sign until September 6th, you’re more expressive and sure of your needs and affections. People appreciate your style and the traits you express naturally. This cycle puts the focus on pleasure and love. It’s a pleasant, attention-getting cycle when you’re inclined to spend extra time on yourself and your needs and wishes. While it may not be the most disciplined time for you, it is undoubtedly a period for carrying yourself with more confidence and warmth. Today, there can be some lack of clarity, but it’s temporary and manageable. It can be most challenging to see finances and personal boundaries clearly. There might even be some sneaky behavior going on around you. Whether it’s about bluffing or withholding information, it’s best to postpone big decisions or complicated topics, and instead, tune into your more creative, imaginative, or spiritual needs. Overthinking things is better avoided.

Leo  

You’re especially observant today, dear Leo, and quick to get to the bottom of a situation. It’s a fine time to nurture an attachment to a project, venture, or a person in your life. Work and health matters gain traction, or you enjoy the stronger motivation to improve them. Background and detail work can thrive today, although you’re also tuning into your imagination. Look for ways to boost your projects or flesh out details for best results now. Relationships strengthen through sharing moments rather than focusing too much on activity. It’s also a fine time for emotional healing, looking into a matter more deeply, and learning useful work or health methods.

Virgo  

There can be some tensions over different viewpoints and problems with decision-making again today, dear Virgo. A disagreement on an opinion may have more to do with perceptions of opposition, as you may be more on the same page than you think. The trouble today is that differences seem more distinct, and it can be challenging to see the common ground. For some, there can be conflicts brewing regarding the depth of a commitment. Jealousy, sharing of power, and level of involvement can be issues on the table. Indeed, new ideas can result from disagreement, but it’s best not to communicate too quickly to avoid complications. The Moon spends another day in your communications sector, and you’re seeking some mental stimulation. In truth, today’s transit can be overstimulating in this regard, but if you aim for moderation and balance, you can learn some interesting things.

Libra

The helpful and nurturing side of your nature is called upon today, dear Libra. Feeling good about your home life is a desire or theme now, and if you’re feeling discontented, you’re especially motivated to make changes and improvements. The Moon aligns with expansive Jupiter in your home and family sector, encouraging special attention to these matters. You recognize the qualities and habits that support or delay your growth.

You can have great success working on a creative project or refining a skill, studying, or adding structure or form to a project.
