Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, September 20th

We can choose to engage or avoid nearly any issue today because the whimsical Gemini Moon allows us to tune a conversation in or out as if it is a radio station. However, the Moon’s shift into tenacious Cancer at 2:53 pm EDT makes it tougher to simply let go of our feelings as we attach our desires to a preferred outcome. Nevertheless, the Moon’s dynamic square to electric Uranus this evening can temporarily free us from emotional dependence.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may be fast-talking early in the day, but you could grow tired of listening to the sound of your own voice. Once the Moon slips into emotional Cancer, you might think that it’s wiser to say nothing at all. However, withholding your desires can be as problematic as sharing too much information. Fortunately, you don’t need to encourage a melodrama that evolves from an all-or-nothing strategy. Walk away from the internal tug-of-war and just appreciate every moment for what it is.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Financial pressures may turn a wonderful day into one filled with angst. It helps to remember that there are some things that are simply out of your control today, including how much money you have on hand. Still, you’re responsible for specific behaviors that can immediately impact the current situation. For example, spending less can truly work in your favor now. A conservative approach ensures that you’ll have what you need tomorrow.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You might not be very cooperative today, even if you care deeply for your friends and associates. You want others to be successful at whatever they choose to do, but you prefer to keep the energy low-key and not share your feelings. Although conserving your energy is a smart strategy now, it won’t hurt to just nod your head in approval so others, at least, know that you heard what was said. The best plan might be to take a bit of time to be alone so you can sort out your thoughts.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

The Moon’s return to your contemplative sign this afternoon may raise issues of doubt about your chosen path. You have a way with words now and might choose to hide your uncertainties behind a mask of humor. Unfortunately, your desire to acquire something beautiful could create its own complicated story. Postpone a non-essential purchase and focus on building trust, instead.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Attending to financial issues can take precedence today over encouraging the whimsical dreams of others. As much as you might want to help a friend turn a fantasy into reality, don’t let your concentration on the material world lapse. You may need to set aside some of your big-hearted generosity in order to get serious about money. Take care of business first so you can offer your support later.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You know what must be done today, but might be paralyzed with fear of doing something wrong. You probably have taken on a lot of responsibility at work, but when you return home later, you’ll still need to handle unfinished domestic chores. Don’t let all your running around during the day distract you from the important personal work that still needs to be addressed. Your desire for perfection doesn’t need to get in your way.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your romantic dreams motivate you to take action, so you don’t end up stuck in a world of illusions without achieving success. But accomplishing your goals may not bring you the recognition you want or the love you seek. Being caught up in an exciting flurry of emotions is invigorating, yet it’s still crucial to refocus on your core beliefs before taking care of business.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your issues about your family of origin are more pressing today, possibly bringing a tough situation to a head. Although you might prefer to sidestep a direct confrontation and move on, you can feel your emotions gaining in strength and you know something will have to give way. Naturally, it’s healthier to express your concerns before they become serious problems. Resolve your differences quickly and aim to handle potential conflict before it reaches a critical state.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may have a variety of things to do today, yet it’s significant that you keep up the appearance of being a strong leader at work and at home. However, you might not know the exact recipe to make this happen. Forget about the how-to book filled with step-by-step instructions. Instead, reclaim your power by trusting your instincts.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your current dilemma pits your need for independence against your desire for relationship security. Unfortunately, there aren’t any quick fixes to your deep cravings for a meaningful and spiritual connection. You may long to rediscover a missing sense of purpose that you set aside to climb a corporate or social ladder. Instead of expecting everything to make sense today, simply focus on the most immediate tasks and leave the bigger issues for another day.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You have been moving quickly to keep up with all the social activities in your life. Now, however, it’s time to slow down and reconnect with the more mundane aspects of your existence, such as work. But don’t bother making big plans or looking too far ahead, or you’ll just end up in a state of confusion. Save the dreaming for another day while you focus on the current daily grind.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Someone may not approve of what you are doing, but you aren’t sure why. The more you investigate, the more convoluted the whole situation becomes. You may be ready to give up and simply let the winds of change carry you wherever they will. Unfortunately, your current obligations prevent you from escaping today because other people are counting on you and you can’t just run out on them.

Daily Horoscopes for Monday, September 19th

Although loving Venus is very powerful in her home sign of fair-minded Libra, we may not be so objective today as her stressful square with passionate Pluto yesterday brought intense emotions to the surface. Raw feelings linger and we might provoke a showdown if our needs differ from someone else’s, especially now that expressive Mars is in demonstrative Leo. Meanwhile the changeable Gemini Moon is subdued by a midday trine to enduring Saturn.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are very excited, but you can’t necessarily put your finger on the reason for your current good mood. You might even feel okay in the face of something unpleasant that you learn today. Someone may place an obstacle on your path to happiness, but you probably won’t even mind because you’re able to dance your way around nearly anything that stands in your way now. Still, it’s wise to allow plenty of time to finish your work because everything could take longer than you think.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

It’s difficult to make a significant decision today since it feels like you’re being pulled in several different directions. Usually you’re able to process complex issues and condense the information into one simple conclusion, but no single solution seems correct now. Don’t force an answer; it will come naturally on its own.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You aren’t very sure of yourself today as the Moon in your adaptable sign squares mental Mercury. You may become self-critical if you’re having trouble dealing with the more practical side of life. Fortunately, you know that you’ll figure things out, but it could take another day or two. If you can’t put the big picture together yet, just concentrate on the little pieces of the puzzle until everything fits into place.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You’re ready for a change, but oddly enough, you don’t necessarily know what you want. You may try to overcompensate for your fear of the unknown by acting with false bravado. However, faking your enthusiasm will only complicate the situation even further, so just be as honest as you can by telling others what you are truly feeling.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be very entertaining today, but putting on a show won’t likely bring you the happiness you seek. Instead of pretending that you have it all together, preparing for a later performance can make a big difference. However, it’s important to strike a balance between following the script and being flexible enough to improvise in the present moment. Aside from practicing your lines, listen to those around you and respond from your heart.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may not want to retreat from a position you recently took, but you might realize today that you were too eager or overly confident. Finally, reality is starting to set in and you might see the consequences of your undelivered promises and unfinished work. But don’t waste any energy being mad at yourself. The best thing to do is apologize if necessary and then move on.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may not actually hear voices today, but you’re likely aware of the guidance you’re receiving from aliens, angels or your subconscious mind. One thing is for certain: this isn’t business as usual. Something strange and wonderful is occurring now, so don’t push it away. Pay attention to the symbols that appear in your fantasies and dreams because they could contain the message you have been seeking all along.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are usually attracted to the mysteries of life, yet now you prefer straightforward answers to more practical concerns. Sadly, there isn’t an easy way out today so it’s better to seek satisfaction by contemplating the meaning of life, rather than wasting time chasing your tail. Just keep in mind that letting go is not the same thing as giving up.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You’re still a bit too serious today because you don’t want to scale back your plans just to make them more realistic. Even if you’re being tested by current circumstances, there’s no good reason to lose confidence. You can realize your dreams, but it helps to compromise. If you acknowledge the things that are not negotiable, you may be surprised at how fast you progress to establishing common ground.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The intensity level of your emotions is on the rise today, and you’re not sure how to handle your feelings. It may seem like everything is out of control, magnifying your uneasiness with the suppressed and irrational side of your nature. Unfortunately, you cannot stuff your fears back into the box. Don’t sink into denial; instead, muster up enough courage to face the unknown.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be anticipating an easygoing day, but the Moon’s visit to your 5th House of Fun and Games makes things difficult because you are required to play by someone else’s specific instructions. Unfortunately, others are changing the rules as fast as you create them now. Ironically, you can shift the dynamics and place yourself in a winning position by acquiescing today. Letting another person take charge may not be your usual style, but it could be the best strategy at this time.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You truly believe that you have your life back under control today, but someone may still appear to challenge the basis of your authority. You are comfortable with running the show when your leadership is needed, but you’re not interested in fighting to get the position. Luckily, there are many exciting possibilities ahead and keeping your options open is wiser than making a wrong decision under haste.

Weekly Love Horoscopes for the Week of Monday, September 19th

Relationship season begins on Friday when the Sun enters peace-seeking Libra, the sign of partnering. Greater consciousness of what it takes to make unions work is a potential benefit during the next thirty days. However, a provocative Mars-Uranus trine on Friday may trigger shocking surprises and powerful impulses that can shake existing alliances or break open the possibilities for very different kinds of new ones. Adaptability is essential during these changing times; standing still is no longer a viable option.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You’re ready to be your rowdy and rambunctious self this weekend when the Moon visits your 5th House of Romance on Friday and Saturday. Taking some playful risks is difficult to resist now that experimental Uranus is activating your passionate ruling planet Mars. It’s a good time to have fun without concerning yourself too much about long-term consequences.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be a little off your game on Friday and Saturday with the Moon traveling through your 6th House of Adjustments. However, making compromises can pay off on Sunday with a lunar shift into your 5th House of Romance. Creating specific plans for a special outing is likely to be rewarded with plenty of pleasure. Yet trying to improvise at the last minute could leave you feeling less appreciated than you like.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

There are plenty of good reasons to be as outgoing as possible this weekend. The Sun’s entry into your 5th House of Self-Expression on Friday sets you up to attract plenty of attention. And, the Moon’s presence in bold Leo and your chatty 3rd House on Friday and Saturday makes it easy to demonstrate your creativity and meet new people in the process. Your playful comments, though, may be taken seriously unless you make it perfectly clear that you’re only joking.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Making peace with the past is the best way to ensure a more fulfilling relationship future. The Sun enters harmonious Libra and your 4th House of Roots on Friday, offering you a completely different perspective on your personal history. Instead of running the gamut between high hopes and deep doubts, finding your inner emotional balance will put you in a much more comfortable place.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon’s presence in your outgoing and dramatic sign on Friday and Saturday can unleash your inner party animal. You’re not going to go unnoticed, even if you have to go to extremes to get attention. Still, if you act with reckless abandon, prepare to shift from public boldness to gentleness in private to create the heart connection you desire.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s tempting to stand on the sidelines and find fault with others on Friday and Saturday. The Moon’s visit to your 12th House of Privacy tends to make you feel like an outsider. But on Sunday the mood-setting Moon enters your pragmatic sign, giving you the green light for making a move. Just remember that an open heart and generous spirit are worth more than perfect looks or exemplary behavior.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

The Sun’s entry into your sociable sign on Friday is likely to put you in a more outgoing mood. Hanging out with playful friends or participating in a fun group event can really get your motor going on Friday and Saturday. Being the leader of the pack is certainly a good way to earn attention and respect, enabling you to show a more confident side of your personality which makes you more captivating to your admirers.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Of course, you can always find flaws when you look for them, but that’s a good way to sideline your social life this weekend. The Moon is in expressive Leo and your 10th House of Career on Friday and Saturday, which can put you in a position of responsibility. Handling your obligations with a playful attitude and a generous heart lightens your load and casts you in a bright spotlight of desirability.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your restless spirit is stoked for adventure with the Moon traveling through your 9th House of Faraway Places on Friday and Saturday. Connecting with someone from a different culture or experiencing art, food or music from other countries can provide the spice to make this a delicious time. If you have a partner, try doing something totally new together, since sticking to familiar activities lacks the excitement you need now.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Dealing with an overheating individual is possible this weekend with the fiery Leo Moon lighting up your 8th House of Intimacy on Friday and Saturday. While you might be right to be skeptical about someone who promises too much, it’s probably wise to open up a little bit in your approach. Taking chances may not be your usual practice, but when it comes to matters of the heart, this is a time to push your luck.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The Moon is moving through your relationship houses all weekend, putting partnership concerns on the front burner. Let your brain work less and your heart open more on Friday and Saturday when the Leo Moon rewards those who take risks. A lunar shift into logical Virgo on Sunday is when it’s appropriate to adopt a more practical view of the situation and make whatever adjustments are needed.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Moon is the key to your emotions, and she sits below the horizon in your chart this weekend until the wee hours on Sunday morning. That’s when the fun begins for you, because your chances of connecting with someone new or making improvements in a current relationship are likely. Remember that you can be specific about your needs and still be a loving and generous person.

Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, Sept. 18th

We can change our minds on a whim today with the Moon’s shift into dualistic Gemini at 4:06 am EDT. Although this transit is normally lighthearted, today’s changeable Gemini Moon is countered by an intense square from needy Venus to passionate Pluto. One moment we are easygoing and the next we’re deep in an emotional drama. We are likely to build momentum when energetic Mars shifts into expressive Leo later in the evening.
Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You aren’t one to be threatened or pushed around, yet you might respond too strongly today when dealing with someone who seems to be on your case. Unfortunately, you probably don’t even realize how overbearing you can sound. Your smartest strategy is to downplay any emotions that may surface now so you don’t scare others away. Be gentle in your approach no matter how intense your feelings are in the moment.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your ruling planet Venus dynamically squares relentless Pluto today, possibly creating discord in love or an argument over the control of finances. However, there may be more going on than is apparent and the real reason for conflict isn’t necessarily the obvious one. The current situation may actually be the designated playing field for a deeper issue. Keep in mind that there’s no reason to avoid what you don’t understand.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You know that sharing your uncomfortable feelings can act as a catalyst that transforms them into healthier expressions of your needs. But talking about psychological issues isn’t that simple, especially if you say one thing yet mean something else. You may think that you are being very clear, yet others may not understand what you’re trying to explain today. Nevertheless, taking the time now to connect with your friends in a deeper way enriches your relationships and brings you comfort.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You can see how someone special is engaging you in an intense process now that has the potential to transform who you really are. Your initial reaction could be to run, but a magnetic attraction keeps you connected, even if you think it’s not such a good idea. Although you attempt to set clear boundaries to protect yourself from losing control, you might be unhappily surprised to discover that you’re in deeper than you thought. Don’t withdraw; ultimately, the change will do you good.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may realize that you’re in over your head as the fervent Venus-Pluto square raises the heat on a romance. You’re not feeling as casual as you expected; something is changing and you’re more inclined to play to win. Paradoxically, you may be simultaneously pulled toward a more metaphysical orientation to love. Don’t lose your perspective; be smart and maintain a healthy balance between a physical and spiritual approach to relationships.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your strong feelings today bring up serious issues around your basic values. Differences seem insurmountable if you and your partner have divergent views. Attempts to convince the other person of his or her guilt are fruitless. Instead of pointing blame at anyone else, try a more cooperative approach now. Follow your dreams as they guide you along, while encouraging others to do the same.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

There might be hidden truths that need to be spoken today. Or, maybe, someone is attempting to keep his or her true feelings secret behind a protective wall. Being intelligent and removing yourself from danger is always wise, but this situation is less about being safe than it is about fearful isolation. Fortunately, resourceful Venus is in your corner now, enabling you to calm down and figure out what makes the most sense. Your natural inclination to create harmony will set the right tone for an honest conversation.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You intend to honor your integrity as you strive to connect to a deeper set of emotions that were recently stirred. However, you are intelligent enough to realize that sharing your true feelings now is probably counterproductive. Sweet Venus squares domineering Pluto, indicating stress that arises from not knowing how much you should reveal. There’s no hurry; wait a few more days before climbing too far out on a limb.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You want to focus your attention on the intriguing adventures down the road, but you must first handle difficult feelings in the present moment. You might try to avoid directing your negativity at a loved one, or, maybe jealousy has sneaked in past your defenses and is now fueling a feud. You would prefer to take the high road, but denial won’t solve the underlying problems. Your friends might have good advice, but you will have to ask for their help before they’re willing to step in and give it.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You would like to be practical, yet circumstances can pull you into a heavy emotional stew today where nothing is clear. You could be annoyed with someone who pushes your buttons, but then won’t follow through with a constructive discussion. Even if you’re willing to talk about love, the key players may be at cross-purposes with one another. Don’t be overly concerned because the energies will shift significantly over the days ahead.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Everyone is taking you more seriously these days, yet you’re afraid this phase won’t last too much longer. Somehow you still can find the time to create an emotional drama with an intimate partner, especially if he or she thinks that your long-term plans are illogical. Be careful, because you could become obsessed with a current idea, even if it ultimately makes little sense. Listen to the advice you receive with a flexible mind and an open heart.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your attraction to a loved one is complicated today by unexpressed negativity or by your belief that others are attempting to coerce you into agreeing with them. Fortunately, you are way too clever to be dominated by someone’s show of force now and you can quickly escape from the clutches of insecure emotions. Stay diligent; it will take a few more days until you’re able to put some time between you and your past.

New Moon Report for September 18th – Mars in Leo

Mars in Leo

Sunday, September 18, 6:51 pm PDT, 9:51 pm EDT

Fiery Mars feels at home in Leo where creativity, confidence and charisma abound. Yet these positive attributes may come at a price. Excessive pride or conceit can turn every act into a performance where spontaneity is inhibited by hunger for approval. Innocently enjoying self-expression with art, romance, fun and games balances the ego’s constant need for attention.

Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, September 17th

We long for a bit of peace today, but the simplistic Taurus Moon isn’t enough to resolve the cosmic tension that is currently pulling on us. Friendly Venus in relationship-oriented Libra opposes irrepressible Uranus in impulsive Aries, encouraging wild behavior that can appear reckless even if it’s fun. But we may be confused about what to do and what to say because assertive Mars forms stressful aspects with talkative Mercury and foggy Neptune.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You know what you agreed to do today, but you have a twinkle in your eye and may not be able to resist creating a bit of mischief, instead. You’re eager to take a risk and break out of your regular routine, even if you know it’s not the smartest course of action. Although your judgment isn’t very clear now, you still might try to justify your behavior. Ask someone you trust for another perspective before doing something you regret.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your ruling planet Venus opposes electric Uranus today, wiring you for pleasure. But your intense desires can create an emotional short circuit when you realize that satisfaction is just out of reach. Your daydreams may be unrealistic, but it really doesn’t matter if you make your fantasy real or not. What’s important now is to give yourself permission to imagine what would bring you happiness if anything was possible.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You might try to float through the day on a cloud of illusions, but an unexpected turn of events can shock you out of your dream state. Even if you’re able to field a curve ball at work or at home, you still might miss the significance of what is happening. Although you may be surprised by what happens, take the time to contemplate what the cosmos is attempting to tell you.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Although someone’s reaction to your request may not be what you expect, you should be able to take it in stride. You might be concerned at first because you don’t particularly like confronting the unknown, but even if you’re caught off guard today, you’re relieved to know the truth. Don’t let subconscious motivations trick you into pushing away the new information; integrate what you learn and change your plans before moving on.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might be very excited about someone or something new in your life now, but you have a sneaking suspicion that your high level of interest won’t last. You may be cautious about letting go and enjoying yourself because it’s obvious that your sense of freedom will quickly run into limiting circumstances. Change is inevitable, but worrying about future responsibilities doesn’t need to interfere with today’s pleasures.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be put off by someone’s selfish behavior today and you could even be offended by other people’s lack of compassion. Unfortunately, you won’t likely be able to understand their actions because logic is not the motivating factor now. Unexplainable changes are to be expected if tension is stressing a relationship. Don’t overanalyze things; just respond with kindness and honesty. The storm will pass quickly if you remain flexible in your thinking.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your key planet Venus is visiting your 1st House of Self and her opposition to radical Uranus in your 7th House of Relationships can awaken previously hidden desires or uncover something about your partner that you didn’t know. Instead of waiting for a friend to shock you with an unexpected revelation, take the initiative and be an agent of change. You will be happier now if you embrace the shift instead of resisting it.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might wish that you could release your old expectations and express your feelings today as unconventional Uranus in your 5th House of Romance opposes loving Venus. But you may not know what you want; your emotions are slippery now, making it tough to choose a direct course of action. Nevertheless, you have a perfect opportunity to learn something important about yourself if you’re willing to relinquish control and go with the flow.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although you wish a friend or partner would make a straightforward decision today, clarity may continue to be elusive. You won’t likely receive a yes or no answer now, requiring you to be satisfied with someone’s uncertainty. Don’t push for resolution because it may take time for the facts to emerge. It’s possible that other people’s ambivalence might be a reflection of your own, even though you believe that you have already made your choice.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You could mistakenly believe that the solution to your current dilemma is in having all the facts, prompting you to gather as much useful information as you can. Unfortunately, you are not very cautious now, so you could jump to an incorrect conclusion that’s based on your desires instead of what is practical. Be smart and postpone any major decision until your energy settles down; your path should begin to clear in a few days.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your desire for an emotional connection pulls you one way while your need for independence pulls another as your key planet Uranus stands off in a tense tug-of-war with sensual Venus. You may wish for more intimacy in your everyday life, but might keep others at a distance if you’re afraid of losing autonomy. Fortunately, a sudden breakthrough in your awareness can open your heart and change the dynamics of a relationship. Set aside practicalities and be flexible enough to respond to the magic of the moment.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be weary of the tension you feel in a close relationship if your perspective is challenged again today. You don’t like the idea of arguing with your partner; nor do you want to waste energy justifying your desires. Your needs are simple; you just want your heartfelt expression to be heard and acknowledged. This isn’t a time for ultimatums; just let others know what you need in a gentle manner and remain patient while waiting to see the results. The dynamics are shifting quickly and you just may receive what you want.

Today’s sensible Taurus Moon and Virgo Sun help us reduce the extraneous noise so we can consider what is most important to our survival and happiness. The Moon’s early-morning trine to Pluto in solid Capricorn strengthens our resolve to simplify our lives while her hook-up with jovial Jupiter encourages us to enjoy ourselves. Nevertheless, we can still sense a rising tide of excitement as we approach tomorrow’s electric Venus-Uranus opposition.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are so enthusiastic about all the possibilities today that it’s difficult to settle down. You might not notice the tension that’s building because a Mars-Neptune alignment is preventing you from seeing how the current circumstances will unfold. Nevertheless, the earthy Taurus Moon helps to filter out some of the unreliable information now, so it’s still safe to trust your senses in the immediate moment without trying to figure out what may happen next.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon’s visit to your bucolic sign normally helps you find the solace you seek. However, you may grow bored today and start thinking about different ways to add excitement into your life. But be careful, for once you open the floodgates, you might wish for the calmer times you left behind. Instead of destabilizing your life, just change your attitude. You don’t have to turn everything upside down to make your day a success.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be craving a little action and are eager to party even before you complete your work. However, you cannot just go off and play. If you’re frustrated, your annoyance might grow into resentment and stand in the way of your fun later on. Stop wasting your time; meet your obligations expediently, so you can have yourself a great time once everything’s done.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You probably realize how amazing your friends are now, especially those who stand up to defend you or rush to your side when you need their help. Ironically, they may not think that their behavior is out of the ordinary — and that’s what makes it so special. There’s no reason to turn your appreciation into too big of a deal today as long as you make certain that those you cherish know how much you appreciate them.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You know exactly what you should be doing today, but your heart isn’t into it. You are bored with someone else’s agenda and don’t want to chase a pot of gold that isn’t at the end of your own rainbow. It’s healthy to focus on your personal goals now rather than anyone else’s. Just be sure that your heightened practicality doesn’t stand between you and an otherwise delightful time.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might have an exciting vision about your future today without necessarily being too impractical about it. Although you can imagine an extraordinary outcome to your current situation, it’s not beyond your reach. Just be careful about stepping over the fine line between possibilities and fantasies. Believing in the impossible will help you stretch beyond your normal limits, but reaching your destination will still take advanced planning and hard work.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You’re tired of being patient because you know exactly what you want and see no logical reason to wait any longer before initiating action. Your sense of urgency may be fueled by someone who seems to be even more impulsive than you are today. Still, there’s something that’s holding you back. Don’t overanalyze your feelings. Just listen to your intuition; if you think that postponing your move makes sense, then that is exactly what you should do.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Someone may be enticing you to take a risk, but you’re not quite ready to jump. Still, the support you receive feels good and it does make you consider reaching for the stars. You are tempted to reveal your current negativity, yet doing so could jeopardize what you have already created. Of course you are free to respond however you see fit, but minimizing your concerns could ameliorate the tension, at least for now.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It’s tempting to lower your expectations now so your co-workers don’t disappoint you with their lack of reliability. But you won’t likely reach your goals if you let someone off the hook too easily, so adopting a relaxed approach isn’t a smart tactic for long. Keep your aim high, remind others of their commitments and you won’t fall short of your target.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may be a bit scattered at work today because you’re thinking of everything else you would rather be doing. But if your current activities aren’t bringing you pleasure, your thoughts could fly all over the place as you attempt to find your groove. Instead of trying to make progress on every front, just pick one and focus all of your attention on it. Limit your options now so you can expand your future possibilities later.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You wish you could be irresponsible today and avoid following through on your previous promises. You might make a judgment error that leads you to think that you’re more effective motivating others now rather than just meeting your obligations. In truth, the best leadership skill you could apply now is setting an example for everyone to follow. Don’t talk about what needs to happen; just do it.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You don’t want to admit that you’re feeling hopelessly optimistic today because you think it will reveal too much vulnerability on your part. However, you probably do believe that better times are just around the next corner. Meanwhile, your personal life may suffer because you are focusing on the future instead of dealing with an issue in the present. Bringing your attention back to the here and now might be challenging at first, but will make you happier in the long run.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for Sept. 16th – 18th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Expect the Unexpected

September 16 – 18

The Moon’s presence in sensual Taurus is a signal to slow down and smell the roses this weekend. Enjoying the sweet pleasures of life with touch, scents, sounds and sights creates a lovely baseline of enjoyment that’s available with or without a partner. Taurus the Bull, though, can sometimes be stubborn and even a little cheap. But a lunar conjunction with indulgent Jupiter on Friday morning blesses us with a major dose of generosity and optimism. The easy way in which we can express our feelings is another source of delight inspired by the Moon’s cozy connection with brainy Mercury later in the day.

Sociable Venus faces unpredictable Uranus very early on Saturday morning, manifesting erratic behavior, romantic surprises and strange attractions throughout the weekend. Whatever ripples of weirdness roll through relationships should be smoothed over with a cooperative Sun-Moon trine on Saturday afternoon. However, late that night the foggy mists of Neptune overtake rational thought and reality with imagination and escapism. A lunar square to this dreamy planet dissolves remnants of reason with the intoxicating effects of romance, fantasy and/or alcohol and drugs. A vacation from reality can be delicious if long-term decisions are not based on a few hours of ecstasy.

The tone switches radically on Sunday with a lunar entry into airy Gemini serving up plenty of distractions. Yet in the midst of these breezy moments flirty Venus aligns in a harsh square with controlling Pluto, whipping up winds of secrecy or jealousy. Honestly addressing the darker issues of desire, power and trust is one of the healthiest ways to make the most of this cosmic energy.

September’s Harvest Moon
Image Credit & Copyright: Stefano De Rosa

 

 Explanation: A Full Moon rising can be a dramatic celestial sight, and Full Moons can have many names. For example, Monday’s Full Moon was the one nearest this year’s autumnal equinox for the northern hemisphere, traditionally called the Harvest Moon. According to lore the name is a fitting one because farmers could work late into the night at the end of the growing season harvesting crops by moonlight. This serene telephoto image captures this September’s harvest moonrise from Turin, Italy. In silhouette against an orange lunar disk is Turin’s hilltop Basilica of Superga.

Lady A’s Spell of the Day for Sept. 15th: CALM FOR AN OPERATION

CALM FOR AN OPERATION

Before a visit to the hospital for an operation, make yourself a healing
package. Gather together a peridot or green crystal, a small vial of geranium
scented body oil and a small makeup mirror. Wrap everything in tissue and put it all into a pretty gift box. Write these words on a blue piece of paper:

“Here within this magick box
I’ll find enchanted fare –
a crystal to shine and light my day,
a secret oil to smooth my cares
and a looking glass in which I’ll see
my loved ones smiling there.”

This can also be made up for a friend.

Today’s Tarot Card for September 15th is The Moon

The Moon

This Tarot Deck: Universal Waite

General Meaning: What has traditionally been known as the Moon card refers to a deep state of sensitivity and imaginative impressionability, developed within a womb of deep relaxation. Here we dream and go into trance, have visions and receive insights, wash in and out with the psychic tides, and experience deep mystical and/or terrifying realities beyond our ordinary senses. The full moon and/or eclipse cycle charted by the Magi (as in some of the earliest Moon card images) exemplify this as a mechanism that Nature uses to expand consciousness.

The variants of the courtly lovers (representing skillful use of the sex force) or the man sleeping it off under the tree (use of drugs to alter consciousness) are also traditional avenues for tapping this primal force. Human interest in higher states propels us to the frontiers of consciousness, where we cannot always control what happens. The Moon card represents the ultimate test of a soul’s integrity, where the membrane between self and the Unknown is removed, and the drop of individuality reenters the Ocean of Being. What transpires next is between a soul and its Maker.

Your Daily Horoscopes for September 15th

The feisty Aries Moon gives us one last kick as she forms a dynamic square with aggressive Mars today. But this is also the first full day of sweet Venus’ visit to her airy home sign Libra, encouraging us to turn on the charm and reach out to others. The mood changes abruptly as the Moon shifts into Venus’ other home sign, earthy Taurus, at 3:24 pm EDT, reinforcing our desire for pleasure while reminding us to enjoy the simpler things in life.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You might be worried that you have too much going on today, but you should be able to complete most of your tasks as long as you remember to remain focused. Fortunately, you can turn a tricky set of circumstances into a manageable situation, but there isn’t much margin for error. Even if you cannot finish everything, give yourself permission to feel good about your efforts.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The bumps in the road could smooth out today when the Moon returns to your determined sign. Although you apply yourself diligently toward your responsibilities, meeting your obligations isn’t enough to bring satisfaction; you also want to enjoy yourself in the process. Ironically, finishing your work can leave you feeling frustrated, unless you have a partner to share in your success. Spice up your day by asking someone to join you for a bit of fun.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may feel irritated by the restrictions being placed on you today. You might need to cut your extracurricular activities short so you can take care of a chore at home or respond to a family matter. Don’t fret over a missed social opportunity because it’s healthier to simply let it go. You will feel better now if you just focus on doing your job well and helping out any way you can.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your life seems uncomplicated when you just do what you’re supposed to do. But even if you know what you should be working on, you may lack the inspiration that’s required to conjure up the correct magical words or actions. Even if you aren’t very excited about what’s ahead, keep plodding through the day. Luckily, your enthusiasm will gather momentum, giving you the ability to affect others in a positive manner.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re progressing toward your destination and, fortunately, your recent efforts finally begin to show progress. However, you may not have a lot of time to celebrate because there’s so much to do in order to fulfill your professional commitments. Although a sudden attraction could catch you off guard, it’s best to maintain a healthy perspective and refrain from impulsive or obsessive behavior. Honor your feelings, but don’t lose sight of those things that are important to your work.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The Moon’s shift into stable Taurus indicates that you must pay attention to the practical side of life. You may not want to stop what you’re doing just to engage in essential activities such as drinking and eating, but running off to participate in a wildly impractical adventure can be dangerous now. Don’t wait until your health is compromised before you start taking care of yourself.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have a gnawing sensation that your social conditions are becoming too complicated to manage now. It feels as if something is going to change, but you cannot tell what it may be yet. You might even feel on edge as you run through all the possibilities. Unfortunately, your heightened sense of anticipation of the unknown could be happening a few weeks too soon. Instead of worrying about what’s ahead, finish up anything you’ve already started and give yourself a chance to relax.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your social life may be very active these days, but it’s important to be discriminating about what you do so you aren’t lured away from your responsibilities. It’s wise to be practical, even if your fantasies are another source of distraction now that Venus is visiting your 12th House of Dreams. But don’t just spend your time making plans. A methodical approach and consistent effort may not produce immediate results, but you’ll gain significant momentum over the days ahead.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may rebel if you are expected to manage a whole lot of details today because being serious is not your idea of fun and games. Still, you’re bound to feel much better if you can tie up as many loose ends as possible. Just don’t take any shortcuts because questionable motives will invite the energy to unravel what you already completed. It’s more important now to follow through on a project already in motion than to go off on a new venture.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The Moon’s shift into fellow Earth sign Taurus this evening reflects your need to slow down and get things right the first time. You can always make plans for your next great adventure tomorrow. Still, this isn’t a particularly easy day, but you can be very productive if you’re willing to balance your down-to-earth approach with your ambitious goals.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be feeling extra clever now and are motivated to move quickly on your plans for the immediate future. But, too much spontaneity can spell trouble, so look carefully at what you are going to do prior to initiating action. Be smart and reconsider your options, while you still have time. Postpone the actual start date until next week for the best results.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The picky Virgo Sun is camping out in your 7th House of Partnerships now, suggesting that you must deal with more interpersonal drama than you prefer. But the Moon in your 3rd House of Communication starts a conversation with a practical person, revealing the weak links in your pet project. Don’t shut out your friends who disagree with your opinions. Opening your mind increases your chances of cultivating successful relationships.

Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, Sept. 14th

Sweet Venus shifts into objective Libra tonight, possibly bringing indecisiveness. Still, intuition is our best guide with the Moon visiting spontaneous Aries, making this a great time to initiate action. Her opposition to realistic Saturn prevents foolish behavior, while an optimistic Mercury-Jupiter trine exudes self-confidence. We realize that we have hard work to do and the sooner we start, the quicker we’ll reach our goals.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may feel moody now that the Moon is back in your sign, but you’re still able to accomplish a lot as long as you don’t let your emotional melodramas get in the way. It’s easy to become so enthusiastic that you quickly lose your sense of proportion. However, just taking time for a few deep breaths may give you enough of a break to remind you to be practical, even when you’re under the influence of an adrenaline rush.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may experience relief today, especially if you’re able to process negativity that has been lurking just out of sight. Still, you’re concerned if you cannot get all your feelings out into the open right away. However, your imagination can trick you into worrying about the wrong things now. Don’t waste energy obsessing about what you should say; instead, graciously accept that everything will surface at the right time. Fortunately, you have more time than you think.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your excitement is contagious today as your key planet Mercury harmonizes with expansive Jupiter; but all the enthusiasm in the world won’t help you get the job done unless you actually follow through with the required effort. An idea might sound so wonderful now that you react impulsively, only to be surprised when you run into obstacles that could have been avoided with forethought. Your work will have more impact if you slow down and take your time.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might freak out today because others expect you to jump in and assume control of a situation in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable. However, there may be too much at stake for you to resist, so fire up your self-confidence and just take charge. Even if you’re unsure of yourself, the timing is right and you will likely come through with flying colors if you’re willing to take a chance and believe in yourself.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It appears as if nothing will stop you today, but you may need a reality check if you don’t maintain a healthy sense of proportion. Your tendency is to blast ahead now with innocent confidence, yet your blind optimism can lead to trouble. It’s better to see the roadblock (or the cliff) before it’s too late to do something about it. Preventive action is always better than crisis management.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are super-confident today as rational Mercury creates a fluid trine with buoyant Jupiter. You may believe that nearly anything you set your mind to is within reach. But caution is advised because you can miss a critical piece of information if you already believe you know the facts. Positive thinking can be a major asset now as long as you balance it with a healthy dose of reality.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It seems to be your job to make nice, especially if a friend or partner is upset or angry with someone else. Fortunately, you’re skilled at helping others move past their personal issues so they can establish common ground, rather than intensifying apparent differences. Although the wisest strategy may not be obvious at first, Venus shifts into your charming sign today, enabling you to put everyone involved at ease.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

A change in your daily routine sounds exciting today and you’re eager to shake things up just to create a little drama. However, you might underestimate the impact of your actions on others now as trickster Mercury and jovial Jupiter spread their optimism. Be careful; your current buoyancy won’t be enough to smooth over someone’s hurt feelings if you aren’t tactful in your approach. Find a creative outlet for your restless energy, instead.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are probably feeling pretty good about your job today as a confident Mercury-Jupiter trine activates your career houses. But your impetuous style might backfire if you move too quickly. Your reality filter isn’t working very efficiently now, causing you to see what you want instead of the truth. Getting carried away by the exhilaration of the present moment can be quite uplifting if you remember to keep one foot solidly planted on the ground.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You could be pulled off course today by an urgent need to focus on your home and family. Perhaps starting a constructive conversation is all that’s needed. Although you might insist that you’re ready to make a long-term commitment, you aren’t as certain as you sound. Don’t take on any additional obligations until you find a healthy balance between your desires for immediate gratification and your ambitious future goals.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you might think you have already reached your limit, the pace of events picks up another notch today. You can jump from one task to another, leaving a trail of loose ends behind you. Rather than setting unattainable goals, give yourself permission to take as much time as you need. You may be pleasantly surprised with how much you can accomplish once you slow down and center yourself.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Think again before you make any impulsive purchases today because you could act irresponsibly with your money. The temptation to buy something foolish can create problems, even if you don’t see the truth of the situation yet. Just remember that your thinking isn’t very clear now, so wait a few days before needlessly jeopardizing your financial position.

The Full Moon

 

The Full Moon

By GrannyMoon

 

When the Moon is completely illuminated in the sky and looks like a sphere, she represents the Goddess in her Mother aspect, as Isis, Inanna, Demeter, just to name a few. The Full Moon is when a witch may feel the most powerful. Traditionally the time of the month when witches gather, it’s a good time for casting spells outwardly and for celebrating all the gifts and glory of the Goddess. Sing and dance in praise of the Ancient Mother Goddess under the Full Moon.

Try conjuring now, for artistic endeavors; beauty, health, and fitness; change and decisions; children; competition; dreams; families; health and healing; knowledge; legal undertakings; love and romance; money; motivation; protection; self-improvement.

A Full Moon increases perception and is an ideal time to prepare and use potions that increase the psychic abilities. A time when spells and plans come to fruition. Take a moment to breathe deeply and slowly. The Goddess is within each of us. Listen to your Inner Wisdom and walk a path that nourishes your spirit.

A witch’s kitchen should never be without a lunar calendar showing the phases of the moon. Once you understand her monthly cycle of growth, fruition, and decline, you can use the moon’s phase in your own spiritual practice and spellwork.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, Sept. 13th

The Moon powers her way into courageous Aries at 2:49 am EDT, infusing us with a new wave of energy. Her conjunction with electrifying Uranus sparks lightning bolts of awareness, lighting up the darkness and revealing previously hidden secrets. The Moon’s square with transformative Pluto deepens our feelings and can create an emotional impasse. An irritating Venus-Neptune alignment early tomorrow morning confuses our dreams with reality.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your emotions are running amok now that the Moon is hooking up with crazy Uranus in your sign. You want to experience the extreme intensity while somehow simultaneously acting cool. However, you can’t play it both ways, even if it seems like you must give up something when you choose one or the other. Logic only takes you so far today, but going beyond words and trusting your instincts could put you back on track.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You truly want a romantic relationship to work out today, even if you have to face an old issue that you prefer to avoid. You realize that you can’t hide your head in the sand any longer, even if you thought that you would be able to take the easy way out. Fortunately, handling your fears won’t be as tough as you thought. It’s much more difficult to pretend that everything is fine when it’s not.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You can sense a powerful shift in the cosmic weather today as the clouds of illusion are chased from your inner skies. You are ready to get to the bottom of something that has bothered you lately, but the answers you receive won’t likely be the ones you expect. Don’t be shocked by what you discover now. Even though persistence doesn’t come easily to you, it will pay off.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Something is motivating you to share more than you expected today, even if you know that you should say less. Unfortunately, once you open your mouth, closing it becomes much more difficult. It’s helpful to remind yourself throughout the day that you don’t have to tell your whole story all at once. Reacting slowly and deliberately will get you further than speaking too soon.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It’s time to move past old hurtful memories so you can be open to the joy that’s recently found its way into your life. However, this doesn’t mean that you should just forget about your previous experiences. Setting aside your feelings is not a sensible strategy because you’ll only end up being irritated without an obvious reason. Ultimately, your willingness to be open-minded can lead to an exciting emotional breakthrough that can shake up your outlook on life and send you off in a new direction.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might be trying to deepen a business or personal relationship now, but could run into a totally unexpected response from the other person. Even if you are open to surprises, it’s challenging when things don’t fit into a neat and tidy package. Fortunately, this won’t become a problem unless you make it one. You’re at the start of something new, so allow the energy to flow naturally rather than frustrating yourself by wishing the tides would follow your schedule.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

The Moon’s shift into your 7th House of Partnerships increases the stress in relationships, especially if other people seem overly pushy today. You may be tempted to withdraw to protect yourself emotionally, but this strategy only increases your sense of isolation. Instead of shutting out others now, try to understand their point of view. Once you can see things through someone else’s eyes, you can establish common ground, enabling everyone to feel better about the situation.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The feisty Aries Moon dynamically squares your key planet Pluto today, stirring up raw emotions that can suddenly erupt. But you don’t want to escalate a conflict now; you simply prefer to get to the source of your anger so you can process your feelings and move on. Fortunately, you are motivated to do so once you realize that holding on to the past will only bring you unhappiness, even if there’s a bright future beckoning just ahead.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are already anticipating good things just around the bend, but the future cannot arrive soon enough for you. You have plenty of responsibilities to fulfill today before you can head out to play, but you’re ready to leave them until later if something interesting comes up. Fortunately, you should be able to grab the fun and excitement in the present moment as long as you remember to finish your chores once you return.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may not be ready for the speed of change now as the Moon meets up with unpredictable Uranus. You have a choice to make that can affect your whole day. Either let the pressure get the best of you by fearfully worrying about something you can’t control or consciously turn your frown into a grin, knowing that change is on the way whether you want it or not. Don’t expect a miracle, but remember that your positive attitude and flexibility can turn a tough day into a positive one.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you may think that you have everything under control, something happens today that forces you to see the world differently. Instead of trying to keep up with your busy schedule, it may be more sensible to let it fall apart and then piece things back together once the chaos clears. It’s too late for preventive medicine now; just be ready for change and let the chips fall where they may.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may feel as if you’re being pushed into the future against your will. It’s not that you’re resistant to progress; it’s just that you have grown comfortable with the status quo and you’re not yet ready for it to slip into the past. Keep in mind that your fear of what’s coming next may be more problematic than the actual challenges you will face. Don’t worry about the unknown; there’s nothing you can do about the future until it arrives.
