Your Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, October 3

Aries

While generally speaking with Mercury still retrograde it’s best to avoid hard and fast decision making, dear Aries, the Moon in your communications sector most of the day does stimulate a desire to communicate, connect, and collect information. Express yourself and stay flexible – be spontaneous if you feel right about something in your gut. This can be a time for lending someone a hand or acting upon an idea. There can be a nice feeling of camaraderie with a partner or friend. With the Moon moving into your home and family sector tonight, find activities that help build confidence from the ground up, and that are familiar and comforting.

Taurus

Your intuition is quite sound when it comes to practical and business matters today, dear Taurus. With Mercury still retrograde, we can be a little fuzzy with facts, but you’re in good form for new ideas and instincts with money today. You may simply need to refine them at a later date. You are more inclined to stick with the familiar than to venture out looking for new experiences today. Even so, you could be feeling close to someone who seems to be sharing the same values as you or who looks to you with special respect. Tonight, you enter a more curious lunar period, and it’s a time for branching out and entertaining new possibilities.

Gemini

This a good day for networking, connecting, and sharing ideas, dear Gemini. The Moon in your sign most of the day tends to magnify your own emotions, at times at the cost of reason. However, this is an important time for getting into touch with your emotional wants and needs, even if they may seem exaggerated at first. You can be craving some “me time”, but can certainly benefit from reaching out to others. Later today, emotional needs don’t seem as urgent, with the Moon moving out of your sign. It’s a good time for reminding yourself of what you do have, and for finding ways to appreciate these things.

Cancer

There is a tendency for you to keep to yourself much of the day, dear Cancer, or to withdraw a little from mainstream activities in order to regroup on an emotional level. You might be craving a sense of order in your emotional life. It’s natural now to look to the past, settle some issues, close projects, and crave extra rest or time to yourself. The Moon enters your sign later evening, and this tends to have the effect of bringing attention your way. The only real “enemy” with this position of the Moon is impatience. Emotions feel urgent, as if fulfilling your emotional needs is an emergency. These desires will pass, often as quickly as they came on in the first place, but pay attention to what’s left behind of them.

Leo

There can be stimulating and even inspiring conversations in your social network today, dear Leo. You might enjoy others’ company more than usual. It’s a great day for networking, connecting, and group activities, and one of the better days for casually communicating in this retrograde Mercury cycle. Doing favors for others may be a good way to express yourself now. Later evening, the Moon moves into your solar twelfth house for a couple days, making it a good time for reflecting on your personal life, particularly with your future in mind, and how you can better develop and improve your attitude towards shaping your life in empowering ways.

Virgo

You’re more concerned about your responsibilities and performance much of the day, dear Virgo, so that the sooner you meet your obligations, the more relaxed and fulfilled you’ll feel. This afternoon brings lighter energy. Your heart is in your chores now, so that they can be done more happily. You are security-minded and moved to take charge. Projecting a more confident “you” is certainly coming more naturally to you these days and this will continue for some time. Later evening, the need for non-competitive outlets for self-expression emerges quite strongly. The less expected of you, the more naturally you contribute, share, and connect with others at this time.

Libra

This can be a good time for sharing ideas and visions with a friend, dear Libra. Honest expression of feelings is the way to go now – it’s charming and winning, frees you of unnecessary guilt, and ultimately, helps you to solve problems. It’s a good time for considering your longer-term goals and plans. Generally speaking with Mercury retrograde in your sign (until the 9th), it’s not the ideal time to expect to know all the details, facts, or figures, but it is a fine time for connecting with a different perspective on your life. Later today, the Moon moves into your career and reputation sector, and this tends to stimulate an increased sense of your responsibilities. The expectations of others can pull you in a particular direction.

Scorpio

Whether it’s through a conversation with someone or with yourself, you’re inclined to pull important matter out from deep inside of you. Thinking, journaling, or ruminating can get you into better touch with your inner needs, wants, and motivations. Discoveries can be truly helpful, and others may be appreciating the insight you share. You’re likely to gravitate towards quiet, healing activities. Tricky issues or ideas can be tackled now with greater ease. By later evening, you’re likely to want to pull yourself up and out, perhaps hungering for more action and experience.

Sagittarius

The day’s energies favor making connections, dear Sagittarius, but particularly interacting on one-to-one levels. A partnership or friendship deserves some special attention today. This is a strong day for bonding with someone, especially if you are tuning into nonverbal cues. You have a way of expressing yourself today that draws people in and allows them to open up. Later evening, the Moon moves into your solar eighth house, and you tend to notice and perhaps dwell on more subtle levels. This can be helpful as it is likely to bring you into better touch with your feelings.

Capricorn

Your focus is on the details of your life and getting things into order, and you’re likely to be feeling on top of things today, dear Capricorn. You’ll find that others are thinking and responding rather than reacting, and this allows for a smoother conversation flow. You might receive or give very practical advice. Circumstances may be such that you need to become more organized and efficient with your work and daily life, and energies today are supportive for these goals. Later evening, the Moon moves into your partnership sector, and this tends to bring you into a more sociable mood, or one in which you’d prefer to share your ideas or activities with someone.

Aquarius

You’re not necessarily in the mood to just blend in today, dear Aquarius. In fact, you may be in the mood for some special attention or recognition for your more unique qualities. It’s a strong time for all things creative. You are displaying more confidence, vitality, and optimism. People are drawn to your good humor quite naturally. Later today, you are a little more sensitive to imbalances or inconsistencies in your personal life and environment. A focus on daily routines or on details can be comforting.

Pisces

You continue to be a little more introspective and cautious today, dear Pisces, with the Moon in your solar fourth house until later evening, but in no way unfriendly. In fact, your feelings are especially warm. It is a good time to set priorities and to enjoy simple things. It’s not a day for pushing or reaching beyond boundaries – there’s plenty of time for that later this month – but it’s a good day for emotionally preparing for more demanding days. Later evening, the Moon’s move into your creativity sector can stimulate a stronger need to express and share yourself with others.
