The Moon spends more time in your home and family sector, dear Aries, and you seek comfort or a feeling of safety and belonging. Today, though, you may do battle with diverging desires or with others who seem to need your attention. Today’s events or feelings can remind you of the need to revise your dependencies or your approach to money, particularly resources coming from other sources than your income. It’s time to be more aware of your financial situation. This energy may instead play out on an intimate level. The need to make adjustments with a relationship and its power dynamics becomes glaring. Your desires are strong but complicated. Temporarily, there doesn’t seem to be a viable outlet or route to satisfaction. This is a time for making observations and adjustments rather than jumping into action as the Sun heads into a quincunx with retrograde Mars.
Taurus
The Moon spends more time in your sector of communications today, dear Taurus, and you can find personal interests or connections especially attractive. However, mixed emotions and signals are likely to interfere with these goals, so do your best to seek out patches of time to yourself. Today’s Sun-Mars challenge is a minor one but can lead to a sense that you’re in limbo. There can be delays or changes in plans, and timing is not your strong point at the moment, but neither is it for others. It’s best to view blunders as mistakes and nothing more. You may need a pick-me-up right now, yet it can be hard to find it if you’re looking to others to make you happy, especially if you’re not clear about your desires. In truth, a direct approach may fall flat today as people seem quite wrapped up in their own problems. It may be better to wait things out. Mars will end its retrograde cycle next week, helping to clear the path forward.
Gemini
The Moon spends the day in your resources sector, dear Gemini, and you’re again seeking more predictability and comfort. Conflicts of values may need to be dealt with, however. With a Sun-Mars minor challenge influencing the day, something can hold you back, whether it’s a gut feeling, fear, or minor vitality issue, from throwing yourself heartily into a social activity or a pursuit. Very important decisions are best left for another day because of a temporary lack of natural confidence, which can spell poor timing. Ego issues might also be in play with retrograde Mars involved, and you could sense a mild but annoying competitive atmosphere with co-workers or friends that turns you off. It’s best to wait and see. In a week, Mars will end its retrograde phase, and you’ll get a better sense of what you want or how to get it.
Cancer
The Moon spends the day in your sign, dear Cancer, and you’re more likely to want to assert your independence or go your own way. Dealing with others who are unsure of themselves can be frustrating today, but perhaps the delay will work in everyone’s favor, ultimately. Avoid trying to push for an answer or a decision, as it can be difficult to come by right now with the Sun and retrograde Mars forming a quincunx aspect. There can be a lot left up in the air. You’re in good shape creatively, in general, but with this aspect in play, you could be wrestling with some self-doubt today. Certain things can consume so much of your time that you can feel behind in your work or duties. It’s not easy to find a direct route to getting what you want just for now. Feeling listless is temporary. Remind yourself that indecisiveness is not always a bad thing, as holding off on making a decision or coming to a conclusion can work in your favor.
Leo
The Moon aligns with retrograde Mercury in your sector of home and family, dear Leo, and it’s a strong time for calling up important memories and enjoying some reminisce. It’s a good “ideas” day, particularly about your personal life and long-term plans to boost your security or family feelings. There can be pleasant conversations that soothe and help you center yourself. Still, we’re heading toward a Sun-Saturn square, reminding you of a constraint or reality and testing whether current plans or endeavors are strong. Responsibilities or problems can seem a little more burdensome now, but it’s a good idea to view any apparent setbacks as opportunities to make changes before moving forward. Through them, you may discover things you’ve overlooked. If you’ve been overdoing your studies or personal interests to the detriment of your work or health, you might now seek a balance or do some catch-up work to get back on track.
Virgo
You can enjoy a buzz of ideas around you today, dear Virgo, but it’s best not to feel pressured to make sense of it all as there are still some missing puzzle pieces. As the Sun heads into a square to Saturn today, obstacles or your responsibilities can seem to magnify, taking on more significance. A roadblock related to a love relationship, a relationship with a child, or a creative project can arise or feel difficult to surmount. Even a setback can lead to a positive step concerning long-term happiness, however, as is usually the case with transits involving Saturn. You’re learning to look out for your “future self” and understanding more about what you need in the long run. Others may not be as forthcoming, warm, or expressive, which can feel a little cold but could also allow you enough space to discover resources you may not have known you had.
Libra
The Moon spends the day in your solar eighth house, dear Libra, and you continue to go within for some healing introspection. As much as you may want to now, it’s important not to rush a financial or intimate matter. Also today, Pluto ends its retrograde cycle that lasted over five months. The shift itself can feel a little dramatic, or you can feel pressure as it happens this week. However, things will soon take off, particularly in financial, domestic, and family matters. Your relationships with family and family roles are changing, and your determination to resolve challenges is building. Motivation and take-charge energy increases. Acknowledge the need to make changes and improvements for best results now, and own it! Home-related projects might unblock or gain momentum. Letting go of something that’s been dragging you down may be part of this energy.
Scorpio
The Moon continues its transit of your work and health sector, dear Scorpio, and you’re in good shape for taking care of details. Relationships and your social needs come into stronger focus as the day advances. It’s a good time of the lunar month for giving close relationships special attention. You’re seeking more balance and perhaps some feedback. It can be stimulating and rather straightforward to come to a nice you-me balance in your relationships today. Others appreciate your sincerity. A theme of cooperation, friendliness, and openness is with you, although it can be difficult to relax your mind later today. It may be best to avoid setting things in stone. Aim to take your time digesting everything before making conclusions.
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 can find yourself busy although not very focused as the Moon finishes up its transit of your communications sector today, dear Aquarius. The Moon then enters your solar fourth house, and you crave more quiet, calm, comfort, and familiarity. You’re in particularly good shape for bringing more balance to your domestic world, especially with help from Venus. Pleasurable, restful, and simple activities are tonics for you now. Finding your center is important at this point in the lunar month. Domestic issues tend to override other concerns as the day advances. Because you’re particularly sensitive to chaotic environments, a Mercury-Chiron aspect coming into play tonight can put a damper on your outlook temporarily. Letting go of a tendency to overthink can be hard to do, but worth the effort.
Pisces
A practical frame of mind continues early day as the Moon finishes up its transit of your solar second house, dear Pisces. With this transit, you tend to prefer keeping things status quo, although the energy of yesterday’s Full Moon is stirring a desire to make improvements. As the day advances, things pick up pace with the Moon’s move into your communications sector. Venus has just begun its transit of your partnership sector, helping you attract helpful or pleasant connections. Today’s good for satisfying conversations and interesting ideas. You’re inclined to want to reach out. A bond might strengthen through sincere communication. It can be a time of making peace with someone. Mental disconnects or doubts later today can slow you down just a little, but you’ll benefit from doing so.
