Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, January 3rd

We want to get along with everyone today and might even sidestep an unpleasant conversation while the Moon visits community-minded Aquarius. Our desire is to only promote positive energy now as talkative Mercury opposes optimistic Jupiter. Our enthusiasm fuels endless discussions of philosophical ideas that make reality sound better than it actually is. However, a restrictive Moon-Saturn square prevents us from going too far off track.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

A current relationship may seem overly confining, but you won’t likely do anything to rock the boat today. You’re probably more interested in dreaming about your perfect partner than making real changes. Thankfully, there’s no need to worry about how to increase your freedom now. Go ahead and indulge in your fantasy; when you’re finished daydreaming, return to the present moment and take a deliberate step that will make a real difference.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You’re ready for a major change now, but you only want it on your terms. Your current need to be in control might make others anxious today because they don’t understand how you can keep it all together in the midst of so much activity. Focusing your attention helps your cause. No matter what happens, concentrate on your goal and grab any opportunity to give it your best shot. You won’t ever know what is possible unless you try.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Being wildly impractical only inspires you to plan your next little adventure. You are thinking in the broadest strokes and might quickly choose a journey to the other side of the world before settling on a trip across town. While others may laugh at you because they think your ideas are too outrageous, you just might get the final laugh when you send them postcards from Timbuktu.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Usually you’re the one that needs additional reassurance in a relationship and expressing your feelings is a great way to move toward a deeper level of intimacy. But lowering your guard can’t just happen overnight, especially if you’ve recently been hurt. Thankfully, you don’t need to let your past negatively influence the present. Push back against your fears today, for your heart is much stronger than you realize.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

There may be a widening gulf between you and another person who decides that freedom is more important now than dependence. The Moon’s visit to your 7th House of Relationships indicates a partner who is more of a spiritual collaborator than just a friend. Needless to say, this level of emotional detachment is not your regular path to intimacy. Keep in mind that you can have breathing room and still deepen the connection between you and your companion. If you love someone, set them free.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be feeling a bit out of sorts today, like you don’t want to do your daily chores the same old way. You are seeking a radical new approach and are apt to become an eager student if it appears that someone knows something you do not. Although, education is not the only necessary ingredient, it is a critical part of the process. Paradoxically, stepping out of your comfort zone now might actually settle your nerves.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Taking a risk sounds like a good idea today, but you must find your own center and get into a productive flow before you start something new. However, you need to be convinced that it can add more pleasure to your life. This is a very creative time for you and it’s crucial to enjoy yourself while expressing your inner artist. Make an extra effort to acknowledge both work and play, for now these two opposites are intricately entangled. Follow your muse and don’t look back.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Even if previously hidden aspects of your personal history are quite unusual, you still might be ready to take center stage today and share your story. However, you may prefer to keep certain parts of your private life totally to yourself. The level of disclosure is your choice; think carefully about what to leave out since you can change someone’s perspective of you in ways that you don’t realize. Nevertheless, you could be radically honest, tell the whole truth and let the chips fall as they may.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Trying extra hard to concentrate is a sensible strategy because a variety of new possibilities are wildly intriguing now. Unfortunately, it may be impossible to shut off your curiosity once it has been aroused. Still, it’s better to be interested in learning about new subjects than to be so set in your ways that you don’t push beyond your limits. Obviously, you need to fulfill your commitments today, but it’s imperative to feed your hunger for knowledge as well.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may feel as if you are standing at the edge of something entirely new today, yet you probably prefer holding onto the status quo as long as you can. Unfortunately, trying to live in the past isn’t a useful strategy when the future is already here. Your life is changing in profound ways; accepting your new reality is the first step to reclaiming your confidence so you can take advantage of the wonderful opportunities knocking at your door.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might want to put a bit of distance between your thoughts and your feelings today, but the two seem to be interwoven in a complex web. The changeable Moon’s current visit to your fixed sign brings powerful mood swings to your normally cool and collected world of logic. Don’t bother trying to untangle the threads now. Instead, observe how these two modalities work together so seamlessly that they actually support one another. Keep both your heart and mind open for the best results.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You must suspend belief to enable your dreams to take hold today. Fortunately, the Moon’s current transit of your 12th House of Imagination could jump-start a sweet fantasy. But don’t waste any energy now attempting to clarify what is true and what is not. Instead, just assimilate the entire story for the creative masterpiece it is. You can always analyze it more deeply on another day.
