The Moon spends the day in your sign, bringing your emotional needs to the foreground, dear Aries. It harmonizes with both the Sun and Saturn, helping round things out and ground you. While this Moon position can be impulsive, you get a sense that sustained effort pays off most. Even so, Mars and Pluto are clashing today and tomorrow, and people can be sensitive about their ideas or choices. Career or family drama is possible. Organizing around the home may help you feel freer in your work, but you need to find the time to get everything sorted. Focus on one step at a time for best results today.
Taurus
The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, drawing out your need for more moments for rest and reflection, dear Taurus. It’s a good day for taking things in stride and sticking to the background so that you can get some peace. Nevertheless, with the Moon’s harmony to Saturn at the top of your solar chart, you want to work and produce. Ideally, you can find a good balance. Today and tomorrow, certain opinions or words people choose to express themselves can get to you more than usual. You might consider that something may be hitting the nerve of a deeper issue if you’re getting worked up too much on what is said. If someone can’t seem to see what you’re seeing, avoid pushing the matter. However, if you need to get something out of your system, then a confrontation may force the issue.
Gemini
With the Sun in your sign forming a trine to Saturn today, dear Gemini, your willingness to take care of details or tidy up certain areas of your life can figure strongly, and it’s highly productive. You’re in good shape for studies (especially structured ones), work on a long-term project, and gaining practical knowledge. A sense that you are on top of things, even in small ways, and meeting responsibilities is empowering. Conservative planning can be rewarding. Later today, you’re likely to find others quite accommodating and agreeable. Seeing the bright side of a situation leads to increased peace or joy. Some wisdom may be gained or shared with someone older or in authority. Today is particularly strong for putting effort into growing something, whether that’s a business, relationship, or project, and enjoying the process. Someone may be putting their faith in you to take the reins.
Cancer
The Moon spends the day in your solar sector of reputation and responsibility, dear Cancer, and long-term goals are in the foreground. You could feel more comfortable than usual with your role, career, aspirations, or obligations. You’re in good shape for productive, practical tasks, and a feeling that you’ve accomplished something worthwhile can be especially satisfying. However, you could resent it if someone seems to be trying to direct you since you’d much rather be free to express yourself spontaneously. Conflicts emerging today and tomorrow can give you insight into the hidden forces at work in your life that may be undermining your progress.
Leo
With the Moon in your spirit sector all day, you can experience a real need for a breath of fresh air or a change of pace, dear Leo. With people in your life putting more faith in you, you’re motivated to be your best. There can be some tense spots today and tomorrow, and some stubbornness can be frustrating. Power struggles on the job might ensue, and the little things tend to irritate most, especially if there are disrupted schedules to deal with or if people are interfering with your methods or process. Seek peace and quiet away from the storm, but if you need to get something out in the open or out of your system, this may be your opportunity. Alternatively, watch for behaviors that lead to anxiety or guilt.
Virgo
The Moon spends the day in your solar eighth house, and you tend to do more observing and investigating, dear Virgo. Getting to the root of problems or looking at a situation’s many layers can be a goal. A slow and steady pace is best right now–you’ll find things fall into place more readily. Today and tomorrow, people or circumstances can challenge you to confront important and perhaps previously buried issues in your life. You could find that you’re dealing with pressures and tensions coming from others or problems arising from within that are sources of frustration or anger. You may even be flip-flopping between a strong desire to get to the truth of an issue and a fear of doing so! It’s best to watch for a tendency to think in extremes rather than seek the middle road.
Libra
You’re more involved with others or approachable today, dear Libra, with the Moon’s transit of your partnership sector. You could feel a little dependent on others right now, but mainly in a pleasant, connected way. While you may prefer to go with the flow than make waves today, there can be some rising tensions to manage, and they’re likely to do with power or control as Mars and Pluto clash. You may feel caught in the middle. There may also be tricky issues with family and authority figures to deal with now. Everyone seems to want their way, and few are conceding, which leads to rather tense scenarios.
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.
