Moon Alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Virgo.
The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
** This might be a challenging day at work you. Very likely, authority figures, the government or some kind of behind-the-scenes energy will block what you want to do. Ironically, a boss (or a parent) might be sympathetic. (That’s small but it’s something.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
** Children might be an increased responsibility today. Likewise, plans related to vacations, social outings, the arts or the entertainment world and even the hospitality industry might be stifled. No wonder you have strong feelings to escape. “I’m outta here!”
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
*** Today you might want to have some quiet time at home; however, to your chagrin, you might be challenged by parents, authority figures or others who don’t agree with your plans. Don’t get caught up in a power struggle with anyone. Sidestep this with grace if you can. (Use your clever words.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
*** This is a mildly accident-prone day for you, so pay attention to everything you say and do. Meanwhile, you might feel a bit worried today because no matter what you try to do, you’re challenged by authorities or people who tell you that you can’t do something. This can be discouraging.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
** This is a poor day for important financial discussions because very likely, if you challenge someone today their response will be, “Talk to the hand.” Poor day to deal with banks. Poor day to ask for a loan or a mortgage. Even shopping is not ideal.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
*** In one way, this is a positive day for you because the Moon is in your sign, which gives you a small advantage over others. Nevertheless, discussions with partners, close friends and even members of the general public will not flow easily. Someone might block your plans. “Whaat?”
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
** Do not expect things to go your way today. Even if you keep a low profile, whatever you try to do, even in small ways, will be blocked by rules, regulations, authority figures or even the restrictions of health issues. Therefore, don’t push the river. Take it easy.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
** Keep things light when talking to friends as well as members of groups and organizations today. This is not the day to get on your soapbox and espouse your views. Au contraire! Others, especially younger people, might not agree and they’re vocal about it. Take it easy.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
** Responsibilities with home, family and parents cannot be ignored today, as you will soon find if you try to press on with other matters related to your outer world. Therefore, face your responsibilities and deal with them as well as you can. Just do it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
*** Avoid controversial discussions, which might soon mushroom into arguments today. Likewise, be careful dealing with issues at colleges and universities as well as making travel plans because your efforts will be blocked by someone. Knowing this ahead of time, pull back.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
** Avoid money squabbles or disputes about shared property or possessions because they could become nasty and petty today. You don’t need this. In fact, you want some peace and quiet right now. You don’t need headaches with others who are telling you what you cannot do. You’re an independent soul!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
*** Be as diplomatic and accommodating as you can be today to get along with others because even then, it will be difficult. Someone you know, perhaps a partner, spouse or close friend, might raise objections to whatever you want to do. Or they might accuse you of doing this? Bummer.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Jim Carrey (1962) shares your birthday today. You are confident, tenacious and decisive. You have a strong sense of purpose and drive. You’re also a team player. This is the last year of a nine-year cycle, which is why it is time to take inventory of your life and let go of what is no longer relevant

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Some minor debt won’t really let you sleep or live for that matter today and you will do whatever it takes to sort it as soon as possible.
This might involve leaving from work earlier and getting into all kinds of other troubles because of postponed work. But when you set out a particular priority for yourself there is absolutely nothing to stop you.
Check every day your Aries Daily Horoscope.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
A revealing day in terms of personal desires and maybe you will be able to understand why you behaved a particular way at some point.
However, it is up to you if you want to share your discovery with anyone, especially if you might find it a bit too private. Another interpretation of this would be that you are not very comfortable with this yourself.
Check every day your Taurus Daily Horoscope.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
If you really want to obtain something from one of your family members you might have been in conflict lately or with whom you still are, maybe you should use kind words.
And as unlikely as this seems it will actually be best than any other strategy, at least you’ll take them by surprise. And you do love leaving people with their mouths open.
Check every day your Gemini Daily Horoscope.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Your friendships should count more on honesty rather than on what the other person can do for you and you are kind of failing at this.
And it seems that this Friday this will be more than obvious and you might have explaining to do in regards to this selfishness of yours. Some other things will go smoothly and no real worries are on you.
Check every day your Cancer Daily Horoscope.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You are doing whatever you can to re-edit a previous success at work, even trying to manipulate things a bit in your favor but it seems that things are not like this anymore.
You will find it a lot more difficult to play with things and eventually you might have to give that up entirely. This is a good day to spend outdoors and reconnect with your spiritual side.
Check every day your Leo Daily Horoscope.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
It seems that this Friday you will have to deal with several activities at the same time and your energy levels are going to drop early on.
Due to the fact that there might be some deadlines involved as well you will probably be forced to continue beyond your capabilities and this will surely take out only what’s worst out of you.
Check every day your Virgo Daily Horoscope.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
An exciting Friday for those natives with actual plans but not too shabby of a day either for those too busy to actually make plans.
Once we sorted the entertainment area we should focus on work where things aren’t as easy and deadlines are exactly outside the corner. Maybe it wouldn’t be wise to postpone anything.
Check every day your Libra Daily Horoscope.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You are highly enthusiastic and seem to look at everything through pink lenses. While it isn’t condemnable to enjoy yourself, if those close to you are not necessarily in the same good mood, maybe you should temper yourself while you’re around them.
This is because the only thing that can cloud your day this Friday is someone else pointing out that you are not very sensible.
Check every day your Scorpio Daily Horoscope.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You seem to put a lot of passion and effort into today’s tasks, no matter how mundane they are. Perhaps your optimism is unrelated to work but you sure can make things appear more agreeable and make the best out of any situation.
Other than this, you might find this Friday quite practical if you go for a round of shopping.
Check every day your Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Group work may not be your forte but this Friday you will be rocking it. You are still very impulsive and would still jump to alleviate everyone’s share but it seems that you are also kind of lazy and disinterested and this combination will help you get going.
At the same time, you might come up with some genius solutions and be willing to delegate their usage to someone else.
Check every day your Capricorn Daily Horoscope.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
The current disposition is transforming you into an incredibly good listener and you are willing to help others with no strings attached.
Of course some things are too good to be true and it seems that your altruism will only expand to people you know and you are still very selfish when it comes to complete strangers and this is not to change any time soon.
Check every day your Aquarius Daily Horoscope.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Whether you want it or not you will have to count on someone else with some practical matters, perhaps some documents to send somewhere or similar.
And you will stress out the whole time and beyond the point you receive confirmation just because this is how you are. On the other hand, you might find an useful ally in the person of a friend from work.

The current moon phase for January 18th, 2025 is the Waning Gibbous phase.

The Moon phase for January 18th, 2025 is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).
The waning (shrinking) gibbous Moon will rise after sunset in the east, transit the meridian after midnight, before setting after sunrise in the west.
During this phase, the illumination of the moon will go down from 99.% to 50.1%. Technically, the phase starts as soon as the Full Moon has passed, but it can be difficult to calculate and differentiate the first stage of a Waning Gibbous Moon from a Full Moon when 98-99% of the Moon’s surface is illuminated.
Fun fact: the word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.
