The tendency to make rash decisions runs high early today, dear Aries. Skipping steps or ignoring precautions can lead to poor choices if you’re not careful. It’s all too easy to get riled up by differences of opinion, but it may be best to conserve energy rather than snap back. As the day advances, the desire to focus strengthens. Facing realities and realigning your thinking and your plans comes naturally. While your thinking is becoming very big and broad, and this overview approach benefits you, life asks you to fill in some important details today. Fortunately, you’re equipped to do so. You might thoroughly enjoy going over finer points.
Taurus
Feeling unsettled early today with a Mercury-Mars tense aspect, dear Taurus. Taking quick action may not have desirable outcomes if you’re acting from this state. Avoid the tendency to jump to conclusions or to make quick and unstudied choices. As the day advances, you’re more inclined to exercise patience and foresight. A Mercury-Saturn influence helps you slow down and handle issues step by step. You might consider attitudes that may need changing to more effectively go after what you want and need. You may need to make decisions on financial matters, and it would be wise to weigh all of the pros and cons. It’s a good time for finding ways to improve your finances by cutting back. This can also be a good time to take a more serious look at your closest relationships or have an important talk that clarifies matters.
Gemini
Watch for impatience when communicating early today, dear Gemini. Skipping steps or information is a real tendency. We can be quick to argue or nitpick with Mercury’s minor challenging aspect to Mars. As the day advances, it’s easier and more natural to take time with your ideas and get them straight. Conversations with a significant someone can have a serious or practical overtone, and decisions you make now tend to be long-term ones. Practical concerns in a relationship tend to take higher priority with today’s energies, or you may be getting serious about a project that involves joint decision-making. It’s a day for getting smart and real about your associations.
Cancer
You can be itching for change early today, dear Cancer. Have faith in your ability to better manage your life, but avoid the traps of thinking that’s too quick. You could find yourself at odds with someone over an issue of values or ownership, although it’s likely to be resolved (or put behind you) rather quickly. The tendency to jump to conclusions or argument is strong, but you’re likely to be far better off observing and using a wait-and-see approach, which comes more naturally as the day progresses. It’s back to business as the morning’s restless energy fades and solid, practical energy replaces it. Responsibilities weigh more heavily, or others remind you of them. You tend to feel stronger knowing where you and everything stands. There is freedom in seeing the truth and accepting it. Co-workers, work itself, or duties and chores can feel more demanding or pressing. You may come across wise advice about a health issue. People see you as more authoritative, competent, or in the know today.
Leo
Early today, unresolved problems can be glaring, dear Leo, but it’s hard to know how to tackle them. Watch for trying to apply band-aid solutions to problems that require more depth and energy. Making too-quick decisions today may not be the best idea. As the day advances, however, it’s easier to draw on patience. Facing realities can feel empowering, especially after feeling directionless. Love relationships, pastimes, or projects can have serious or possibly heavy energy surrounding them. You might make or reconsider a commitment. This is a good day for thinking about how to monetize or add more structure to a hobby, make better use of your leisure time, or cut out those things that interfere with getting the most out of your downtime. The Moon spends another day in your solar twelfth house, encouraging you to take some moments to reorient yourself.
Virgo
You’re likely to experience a wonderful sense of being “in sync” and supported with someone today, dear Virgo, and a conversation or further thoughts and musings may be the key. It’s a good day to cooperate with others. Listening generously can be key. A Mercury-Neptune transit can make it easier for you to find inspiration. You’re also expressing yourself more imaginatively and charmingly. Agreements and negotiations are favorable, and letting go of stress and negative emotion can be particularly helpful and relieving. Guiding, teaching, or soothing people with words and possible solutions to problems can be rewarding. Tolerant and accepting energy helps you detox. You’re all set to learn from different viewpoints and perspectives, as well as inspire others with yours.
Libra
A practical mindset could clash with another part of you that would prefer to throw some caution to the wind today, dear Libra. You could feel divided early today. There can be a rush job or an unexpected change in plans that serve to mix things up a little but can leave you feeling edgy. You can be all wound up with no real plan unless you resolve to pick a project and enjoy it without worrying about what you may be missing as you do. The day advances with far less urgency and pressure. In fact, there’s fantastic energy for special attention and focus on work, health, and business pursuits. Intuition for money, work, and health matters is excellent. You can feel motivated to change things in your environment to improve your productivity.
Scorpio
Early today, tense aspects can lead to quick and perhaps poor choices if you’re not careful, dear Scorpio. It may not be easy or straightforward to harmonize your desires or impulses with your communications. You could be a little restless, with part of you craving emotional excitement but uncertainty about how to get it. The day advances more smoothly. Wonderful energy is with you for nurturing a creative project or special friendship with Venus in your sign connecting with Ceres in your sector of joy. As well, the Moon spends the day in your creativity sector, encouraging special attention to expressive, playful, and heart-centered activities. You could find yourself naturally gravitating towards positive situations and people, perhaps finding yourself exactly where you need to be at the right time.
Sagittarius
Earlier today is good for entertainment and a playful, cooperative mood, dear Sagittarius, but you prefer not to idle as the day advances. A more purposeful mindset kicks in with the Moon’s move into your solar sixth house. You’re ready to put the work in with the Moon’s move into your work and health sector for a couple of days. You can quite enjoy yourself as you take care of things. It’s a fine day for easy productivity. As much as the urge to get cracking on duties, chores, work, or health routines is with you, there can be some doubts later today. You can quickly tire of anything that feels run-of-the-mill or lacking in magic and poetry at the moment with Mercury challenged. Look for creative solutions since it can be hard to focus on priorities if you have too many of them.
Capricorn
You’re inclined to keep to yourself early day, dear Capricorn, but grow into a desire to share or express yourself. Fortunately, you’re received well. You tend to seek more interaction with the Moon’s move into Taurus and your solar fifth house. The Moon transits a sector of the chart for only two to three days, but it can serve to remind you of important needs. This particular transit encourages attention to self-expression, creativity, fun, pleasure, and leisure or entertainment. More than usual, you’re emotionally invested in your heartfelt pursuits. Venus harmonizes with the Moon, Saturn, and Chiron, boosting your social confidence and your personal outlook. You could be itching to break out of your usual schedules and habits. Later today, your attention span may be short, so aim to avoid taking on too much. Take this time to understand yourself and your feelings, but avoid making big decisions now.
Aquarius
You’re in good shape for rounding out your understanding of things today, dear Aquarius. Today’s Sun-Chiron trine is useful for seeing things more holistically, particularly in your social life. Extra openness, sincerity, and warmth are themes in your friendships and communications. You’re likely to find support for your creative efforts, projects, and desires today. Your interactions with a partner, friends, or acquaintances are likely quite positive and inspiring. Ideas emerging now contribute to a dream or vision. Your goals and dreams seem more doable, and this lifts your spirits. Investing more of yourself in your projects and ideas can be exhilarating, filling you with a stronger sense of purpose. As the day advances, you’re in great shape for bringing more order to your world. You might learn new information that empowers you, particularly along professional lines. The use of strategy is especially important right now, as whatever comes up today tends to require extra thought and analysis, and it’s likely to benefit from a slow rollout.
Pisces
With the Moon now in your solar fifth house for a couple of days, you’re paying more attention to the things you love, dear Pisces. Entertainment and activities that allow you to express yourself and your sense of fun are a stronger draw. More than usual, you recognize your emotional life, sense of independence, and needs for nurturance and special attention today. You have more confidence in your need for personal time, and energy flows particularly well for relationships and creative pursuits. A relationship develops as you share ideas. A person in your life may come through for you now, and this is helpful. Attention to strengthening ties with others and special projects in the present can do much for them down the road. Avoid rushing later today for best results.
