Daily Horoscope Wednesday, October 7, 2020

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions after 9:30 PM EDT today (6:30 PM PDT) for the rest of the day. The Moon is in Gemini.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

In discussions about wills, inheritances, insurance issues or shared property, don’t be too quick to react. Take it easy because today, Mercury is opposite unpredictable Uranus, which encourages snap judgments and rash decisions. Think carefully about whatever you’re doing. (For your own good.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

In discussions with partners, close friends or the general public, hold your horses! Don’t jump to conclusions. You might not have all the information you need before you make a definitive answer. You might feel rebellious! It’s a tricky day.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

At work or when doing any task that you set for yourself today, you might do things too quickly. You might be haphazard, which will encourage mistakes or overlooking something important. It’s hard to be detail oriented. That’s because people (including you) are impatient today. Be aware of this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Be patient when dealing with kids today. Likewise, be patient in social situations or in sports events or sports practice situations because people are ready to go off halfcocked. Guard against doing this! Think before you speak or act to avoid regrets.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

In family discussions today, be patient with others. Be careful that you don’t jump to conclusions or act too quickly. If you are tackling home repairs today, slow down and be careful. Double check everything because it’s easy to overlook details today. “Measure twice – cut once.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is an accident-prone day for you simply because you might be distracted or impulsive. An accident does not have to happen; however, everyone (including you) is inclined to act too quickly today. It’s easy to overlook details and be impulsive. That’s why this is an accident-prone day.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Do not be too hasty today, especially dealing with financial negotiations or handling cash. Count your change. Double check invoices, bills and receipts. People are inclined to be slapdash today and an error on someone else’s part (or perhaps even your own part) might cost you money. Be alert.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today Mercury is in your sign opposing unpredictable Uranus. This makes you think and speak fast! However, your mind might feel scattered or nervous. Yes, you’re interested in new kinds of experiences but you are also impatient. “Next?” Slow down and be careful.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might feel vaguely nervous or unsettled today. In fact, many people will feel this way. It’s a passing influence but it’s there and it can distract you from any task you are doing. This is why you might make a mistake or not notice something important. Slow down and be vigilant.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Caution against being too blunt when you’re talking to friends today or members of a group because you might shock someone. This is because you are inclined to speak off the top of your mind – without censoring yourself. (Something you usually do!)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Make sure you don’t say anything to a parent, boss, teacher or member of the police that you might later regret because it’s easy to do today. For starters, you might feel super independent and rebellious! It’s also very easy to think without speaking today. Guard your words!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Although you might have flashes of brilliance, and you are eager to learn new things and meet new people today; nevertheless, you might be slapdash and overlook important details. Therefore, whatever you do – force yourself to double check things and be aware. Be smart!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Cellist/composer Yo-Yo Ma (1955) shares your birthday today. Although you are fun-loving, nevertheless, you have a lot of self-discipline. It’s your turn for a fun-loving year ahead! You will be more popular and will enjoy warm friendships. You will also be more grateful for your life and will appreciate the everyday happiness and beauty around you. This year is the time for an important choice. Choose wisely.
