Aries
Thinking or conversations can seem unproductive in the first half of the day, dear Aries, with a Mercury-Jupiter aspect in force. This transit does have the potential to stretch your mind, but it can also serve to frustrate. Life feels slightly lopsided if you’re overthinking things. Otherwise, today’s energies suggest you might discover satisfying ways to bring more balance to a friendship or partnership. Focusing a little less on outcomes means you’re exchanging information and enjoying the flow more naturally. Healthy give-and-take is more clearly rewarding now, as you feel gently challenged. It’s more rewarding to communicate with others when all involved feel heard, and this kind of scenario is likely now.
Taurus
A Mercury-Jupiter influence in the first half of the day can present you with too many options or choices, dear Taurus, which can lead to some indecision. Your short-term thinking may not jive well with long-term goals. Something could leave you feeling stumped. The Moon spends the day in your communications sector, and you’re especially curious, although perhaps a little distractable. Otherwise, the day holds nice promise for feeling empowered by getting a better handle on your daily routines, chores, work, or health. You’re likely to feel particularly motivated to improve your habits. You can bring much imagination into your personal life. Do take the time to listen and look. Attempting to push to find a resolution to a problem is unlikely to work well, but pulling back from it might.
Gemini
There could be some feeling of strain in the first half of the day due to indecision, dear Gemini. It can be hard to arrive at a solid decision. Watch for the urge to take on a new challenge or project that eventually becomes a burden, or you might find your motivation and interest fizzle over time. Even well-meaning promises made now may not keep, so try not to invest yourself in promises made to you, and think twice about making commitments, just for now. Aim to replenish rather than push yourself and build your confidence in an unrushed, natural way. A hobby or a romance can have a powerful effect on you today, and dedication to something (or someone) you love motivates and drives you. The Moon spends the day in your solar second house, suggesting some need for a steady, predictable pace or earthy, grounding activities.
Cancer
You may have a small dilemma or a feeling of being out of balance in the first half of the day, dear Cancer, and it’s best to watch that impatience doesn’t get the best of you. Tame expectations so that you can base a good mood on reality rather than an unattainable fantasy. Still, you draw others in with a peaceful, wise manner today. There may be a plan or project that gets you going, and you enjoy dedicating time and energy to it. You can take a particular interest in your inner world today, and you’re likely to derive quite a bit of satisfaction from efforts to improve family and home life. You’re in a good position to take charge. Your instincts for what should stay and what should go are on target. While you’re in a great place to cooperate with others, you may want to prove to yourself just how much you can accomplish on your own.
Leo
You might find it natural to commit to a goal, cause, or venture today, dear Leo, and narrowing your focus to important details can be useful now. Focusing on cherished dreams or hopes, long-term happiness goals, friends, or networking can be soothing. You’re in a strong position to observe and learn about your own motivations and those of others. Taking a step back from the world a little with the Moon in your privacy sector all day is appropriate. It’s time for some reflection and rest. This is a day for catching your breath, and you may need a little more time to yourself than usual. A lot is going on behind the scenes, and you may be glowing with excitement. You seem to be more productive when you remove yourself from the hub of activity right now.
Virgo
You may not be especially forthcoming on an emotional level today, dear Leo, but this is mainly due to the need for extra time understanding how you feel about a matter. The Moon spends another day in your privacy sector, and it’s a good time to process and digest. In the first half of today, you may not find it easy to choose or decide, or something that you missed in previous days resurfaces for attention. This is about tying up loose ends and making important adjustments. If you’ve been overdoing attention to work or chores, you may feel it affecting your personal time more intensely now and look for a solution to the imbalance. Still, you can get the chance to gain just enough perspective on a situation to see the lesson. You can also feel particularly good about specialized learning or skills development now, and you want to contribute something of value.
Libra
Today’s New Moon occurs in your sector of spirit, adventure, higher learning, worldview, and belief systems or perspective, dear Libra. It’s a fine time to consider a line of study or find the time for more enjoyment and discovery in your life. A review of current or past unfulfilling activities may be the fuel for this reorientation. You’ll be building your faith, as well as understanding where you stand and what you believe. This New Moon acts as a charge, sending you in a new direction. In the coming weeks, you can feel renewed by a new perspective on your life. Sharing your experiences with others, publishing, marketing, or studies can be in stronger focus. It’s an excellent time for an attitude change for the better, positive feelings, optimism, and a stronger sense of purpose or meaning. Still, some self-reflection is appropriate so that you can get in better touch with your true desires. Creative endeavors might benefit from tweaks and edits. The need for more from your life, if misunderstood, can play with your perceptions today. A Mercury-Neptune square suggests that you may require mental refreshment or fresh inspiration, but you may mistake this for restlessness. Consider that discontent may have its root in needs for more fulfilling, creative, or imaginative work. Make time and space, if you can, for artistic or relaxing activities, but if you’re dealing with facts and figures, double-check your work.
Scorpio
After today’s New Moon, dear Scorpio, intimate relationships can benefit from a new start or vision. However, you’re in the process of redefining what you want and need from others, as well as what you expect from yourself. You may be interested in developing a relationship or project further. Seeing old projects or relationships in a new light can prompt a new direction, approach, or beginning. Financial and intimate matters are in focus, and while there can be challenges and obstacles involved, a take-charge attitude is bound to emerge. This lunation can certainly act to stir your desires, and it occurs in the sector of your chart that rules intimacy, trust, bonding, and power dynamics. This house also rules support, shared resources, and debts, and the weeks ahead are strong for finding different ways to connect with a partner, pay off debts, or seek support. Take your time on this, however. It’s too soon to go hard with these things. You may be seeking more passion and intensity in a relationship or with a project, or you can feel compelled to take charge of a matter in which you feel indebted to someone or something. Think in terms of getting organized and simplifying or downsizing, particularly around the home. With Mercury forming a square to Neptune today, watch for wishful thinking that distorts your perceptions and decisions, and aim to put your imagination to more creative, empowering, and productive use.
Sagittarius
Today’s New Moon can prompt new beginnings or directions related to your close relationships and partnerships, dear Sagittarius. This lunation can point to a new or renewed connection in your life, or it can be about fresh negotiations and a stronger feeling for what you want from (and can bring to) a relationship. Aim to set intentions and goals that better reflect your redefined wants, needs, and expectations of others. Energies are powerful for a fresh start or turning point. New beginnings related to close relationship goals and needs are possible now. This can be about relating to others in healthier, more creative ways. You may come to meaningful conclusions about your relationship needs through the events of this time in your life. It’s also a fine time for seeing yourself through others’ eyes, taking steps to improve your connections with others, and finding ways to bring more balance, harmony, and beauty into your life, in general. Being more productive and getting your daily affairs sorted seems integral to this. A Mercury-Neptune square active today tends to confuse rather than clarify, but some diffusion may be just what you need right now. It’s better to reserve judgment on a matter until more information surfaces since it’s highly unlikely you’re seeing the whole story 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
