Your Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, August 9th
Aries

This is a good day for positive gestures and making contact with others, dear Aries. There is a balanced approach to relating today that helps both you and your friends or loved ones feel subtly supported. On a romantic or creative level, you can have a simultaneous feeling that you’re moving forward and that you’re looking behind you. This can be confusing but do consider that it might also be helpful. Of course, living in the present is the best way to go, most of the time, but sometimes, it is useful to use both hindsight and foresight – today is good for seeing what needs to be left behind, and what you want from your romantic life in the future.
Taurus

You are drawn to simple and grounding activities today, dear Taurus. While you might continue to focus on body needs, attention, and pampering, emotionally you’re more patient and willing to concentrate on building rather than expecting your needs to be met immediately. This allows you to see what’s truly important. Today, logic and emotions mix quite beautifully, making it a good time for taking stock of what you have and considering ways to put these things to better use. This can include money, resources, and talents as well. It can also be a sensual, contented day in which you prefer to stick around home or familiar people and places.
Gemini

With the Moon in your sign and reaching out positively to the Sun in your communications sector and Uranus in your friendship zone, dear Gemini, you might find it easier than usual to satisfy your emotional needs. There is a stronger need for self-nurturing which shouldn’t be dismissed, but also good channels for expressing your emotions through writing, sharing, learning, and connecting with others. The Moon in one’s own sign can sometimes trigger feelings of being down if you are currently unhappy with how you are presenting yourself to others and/or how they are receiving you. However, today’s energies are generally easygoing and supportive.
Cancer

You may need extra time for yourself today, dear Cancer. This can be a good time to collect your thoughts, particularly if you are able to free yourself of distractions. Routine can bore you now, and you may need a change of scenery in order to get yourself into a better emotional state. You have so much to discover about your inner world, and today you might enjoy looking within. Even so, intuition is good for money or practical matters now. Your daydreams can lead you to important conclusions or ideas. Looking to the past is appropriate now, but it’s best to do so with the goal of keeping the best from it and putting the dysfunctional behind you.
Leo

This is a day when any unrest or longings you’ve been keeping inside on a social level can emerge, dear Leo, with a very good chance of making the connections you crave. You can see a friend in almost anyone right now, and treat others especially fairly. You may be drawn to making long-term plans, particularly those along creative lines, but also regarding travel and higher education or learning experiences. You can be especially adept at teaching or guiding others right now.
Virgo

The Moon’s presence in your solar tenth house all day, dear Virgo, can point to circumstances that call you to mature and grow. With the Moon at the top of your chart, you might also feel the urge to reach greater heights. You can accomplish a great deal on practical levels. Energies are best for focusing on one thing at a time right now, so set aside some hours alone, if possible. You are aiming high today, especially motivated to do your best and to shine. You might be able to draw upon past experience or uncover hidden information that furthers your cause.
Libra

The Moon’s presence in your sector of adventure and higher learning helps to lift your spirits, dear Libra, and tends to raise you above regular stresses and problems of your daily life. If you can take a detour from the regular routine, your mood tends to elevate. You take a stronger interest in new ideas, places, and people. You may be seeking clarity in your interactions and conversations with friends or networks. You are drawn to ideas and people who are unique or distinct in some manner.
Scorpio

You can learn a lot about yourself and others today, dear Scorpio, as your powers of observation, as good as they are on any day, are stronger than usual. You may be drawn to the hidden elements of what you’re seeing and experiencing now, and you pick up many important clues as you do. At the moment, it’s your career or responsibilities, and the relationships you have with people connected to these, that you can stand to learn much about. You are looking at relationships in an entirely different way, possibly from a place of more objectivity and less attachment, which allows you to better see how they help or hinder you. When it comes to major life plans, personal finances, and intimate relationships, you can benefit from some strategy. You can benefit from taking a step back and planning your next move.
Sagittarius

With the Moon in your opposing sign all day, dear Sagittarius, you are more aware of, or sensitive to, what others think about you and you are more adaptable and accommodating. This position generally gives you an extra boost on a social and romantic level. There can be a feeling of moving forward but also some attention to the past when it comes to your relationships. Material and mundane affairs assume less importance today, as you’re much more tuned into the people around you and creative ideas. However, your ruler, Jupiter, is changing signs in just two days. This yearly occurrence brings a subtle shift of focus, and for you, a general trend in which you pay more attention to work and career.
Capricorn

Giving others the benefit of the doubt can work magic at times, dear Capricorn, as it can motivate them to improve and it can make you feel stronger. Today’s energies are good for seeing power dynamics in relationships and using them to make empowering choices. Rapport is generally easier than usual today, and you may very well break down some walls in a relationship that can use it. This is also a good time for looking at a matter more deeply. Research can yield satisfying results. There can be an absorbing topic, subject, or activity that draws you in and keeps you pleasantly busy.
Aquarius

The Moon is moving through your solar fifth house all day, dear Aquarius, turning your attention to games, entertainment, love, and activities that allow you to express yourself and your sense of fun. This is potentially a nicely creative day. Relationships are a little complicated these days, but while you have a tendency to be looking to the past for answers, you’re also willing to look at things in progressive, new ways. Be sure to take any opportunity to do so while Venus is retrograde until September 6th. A person from your past could attempt to reconcile or connect with you this week.
Pisces

This can be a strong day for organizing finances, the home, and work environments, dear Pisces, as you have a good sense for how these things are connected in your life, and how important it is for you to feel on top of these things. Aim to make improvements and to enjoy yourself in the process. You could experience increased independence with work right now. In two days, Jupiter, your co-ruler, will enter your partnership sector and the sign directly opposite yours, launching a cycle that lasts over a year and that brings benefits into your life through or with other people. At the same time, you are finishing up a cycle in which work and daily routines have expanded.
