uddenly, it is as though the universe has experienced a meltdown or concussion and lost its bearings. Instead of attacking humanity with cosmic guns blazing, it is receding to the sidelines – undoubtedly to refuel and eventually get cracking with more intensity during the first week of November. Right now you have a Saturday where Venus forms a robust parallel to Pluto (8:16AM PDT) – a rather intense alignment on most days. However, this morning it appears to be a boost for antique hunters and collectible aficionados as well as artists of any stripe. Of course, if you fall into the trap of being egocentric and selfish – for whatever reason – this Venus-Pluto encounter can turn against you. While many of yesterday’s potent alignments remain active in the psychic atmosphere, you can also take advantage of the fun-loving, humorous and cheerful essence contained within Sagittarius Moon. Here’s another evening to kick up your feels and enjoy your favorite form of entertainment. If you want to continue working on beloved hobbies or construction projects, positive lunar aspects to Saturn (8:19PM PDT) and Mars (11:04PM PDT) will keep you busy.

Daily Horoscopes for Friday, October 28
The Moon enters philosophical Sagittarius at 10:45 am EDT, expanding our vision beyond personal needs and into social realms. Generous Jupiter trines Pluto and opposes the Sun, further distorting our sense of reality by enabling us to see the good side of everything and tempting us to overcommit or overindulge. Meanwhile, an expressive Mercury-Mars square infiltrates our words with anger. A little self-restraint can prevent unnecessary conflict.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Trickster Mercury short-circuits your mental wiring today, making you believe that someone is threatening you, even if that’s not the case. Fortunately, you can avoid overreacting by just being aware of your current tendency to make everything more important than it actually is. Ultimately, your decisions should work out for the best as long as you don’t jump to conclusions that justify unkind behavior.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You may try to be fair-minded in a partnership, but you cannot maintain your objectivity today. It’s not easy to express your annoyance with someone close to you, because you don’t want to waste energy on activities that detract from what you need to do. Unfortunately, holding your emotions quiet only adds to your irritation. Take a deep breath and then share your feelings — even if they are negative — but do it without blaming anyone else.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Warrior Mars stresses your planetary ruler Mercury today, luring you into an unpleasant exchange of words. You might think that your professional status is at stake, but it’s likely that you are so sensitive now that you make a big deal out of something that’s not all that important. Step back before reacting; try to understand what’s currently happening instead of attempting to change it.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Someone may accuse you of being negative today, yet you might believe that you are acting like a Pollyanna. Your denial doesn’t do much to settle others down as they ask you to explain your behavior. Don’t allow yourself to get sucked into peripheral dramas, but if it’s true that you have been hiding your frustrations it will feel better to get them out into the open.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You may not be willing to take the time now to explain your current actions or even your rationale for doing nothing. You feel that it’s your right to keep your feelings to yourself. Unfortunately, you can add more confusion to the situation if you don’t share your motives when you have the opportunity to do so. Even if you think that you have something better to do today, let your friends and associates know exactly what’s on your mind.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your close friends may encourage you to talk about something you usually prefer to keep to yourself as forceful Mars antagonizes your key planet Mercury. Even if you know better, you could still lose your temper today and give someone a piece of your mind. Keep in mind that angry words don’t make anyone happier, so think twice before you escalate a minor difference of opinion into an open conflict.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Your rational thinking isn’t enough to keep you even-keeled these days as wordy Mercury squares combative Mars. Your friends and associates might not play fairly when they refuse to get involved in a discussion, but all you want is a bit of honest feedback. Paradoxically, it may work backwards now; if you push too hard, others will just retreat even further. Fortunately, giving them room to breathe allows them to finally come out of their shells.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You may experience another layer of frustration as you try to handle an already tricky situation. Thankfully, jolly Jupiter trines your key planet Pluto, giving you the endurance to follow through on whatever you start. But your eyes are larger than your tummy now, tempting you to bite off more than you can chew. Taking a few steps backward to reconsider what makes the most sense is a viable strategy to get what you want.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You can become involved in lengthy discussions at work as the Moon returns to your bombastic sign and enthusiastic Jupiter enters your 6th House of Employment. However, you may grow annoyed if others are less than forthcoming with their true intentions now that Jupiter trines underhanded Pluto. You’re impatient and don’t understand why your workmates don’t just come right out and say what’s on their minds. Even if it’s frustrating, practicing tolerance teaches you ways to overcome previous conditioning.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
If your friends are acting belligerently toward you now, the situation may not be what it appears. Your emotional self-restraint can be very annoying to someone who burns hotter than you. The long-term solution to the current imbalance might not be the obvious one. Instead of telling others to back off, the answer may be for you to show your feelings. Ironically, a potential fight could be avoided by your willingness to share your emotions before a conflict grows out of hand.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You prefer to be left alone so you can get your work done today, but your co-workers continue to bother you with their great ideas. Before you overreact, try changing your mind about what’s happening in the present moment. If you attempt to shut others up now, they’ll just get angry and probably grow even more vocal. But if you take their suggestions in stride, they will feel acknowledged and you might even learn something important in the process.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You are experiencing everything with greater intensity today and this can be very draining on those around you. But don’t turn off your feelings, for any form of avoidance or denial only makes the atmosphere even more intense. However, keep in mind that you don’t need to express every thought or share every passion that stirs your soul.
Your Weekend Lunar Lovescope for Oct. 28 – 30
by Jeff Jawer
Pushing the LimitsOctober 28 – 30 |
Unlimited enthusiasm and an irrepressible taste for adventure can take you on some wild and crazy rides on Friday and Saturday. The Moon is in fiery Sagittarius whose Archer is aiming his arrows at faraway places and far-flung experiences. The desire to broaden your horizons is amplified by the Sun’s opposition to Sagittarius’ expansive ruling planet Jupiter on Friday night. Even the most cautious individuals may be ripe for risk-taking in this bold but perhaps dangerous environment. Pushing the limits of what you’re willing to feel or do can certainly open social doors, but a lack of discrimination and common sense could allow people in who you won’t want to see the next day. It’s wise to reach a little further in search of love but to avoid losing balance by losing your head.
Sunday’s story is very different with the Moon in orderly and responsible Capricorn. But even this disciplined sign may find you in a less than sober mood, since the Moon forms a stressful square with explosive Uranus early in the day and joins transformative Pluto in the evening. The former spurs spontaneous reactions that can rattle relationships. The needs for freedom and freshness are powerful enough to stretch the strongest bonds, but exacting Pluto can punish excessive or inappropriate behavior, making self-restraint a must.
Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, October 26th
The tone is set for a very intense day as the Moon shifts into resolute Scorpio at 11:08 am EDT. The watery Scorpio New Moon at 3:55 pm reaffirms the significance of our feelings today while Venus squares Mars, possibly sparking a conflict. Jealousy or envy can fuel a disagreement as communicator Mercury semisquares dark Pluto. Fortunately, a reserved Mars-Saturn sextile reminds us that exercising caution may be smarter than acting impulsively.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Today’s possessive Scorpio New Moon energizes your 8th House of Shared Resources, highlighting a business or personal relationship that takes center stage as the specifics of a commitment are negotiated. But discussions can be tricky now because strong emotions might turn combative. Fortunately, logic will prevail if you remember that losing your temper won’t help your cause. Think strategically instead of just trying to get your way at any cost.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
The passionate Scorpio New Moon draws energy to your 7th House of Relationships today, agitating an emotional struggle with someone who can be as bullheaded as you are now. Although being more flexible than usual can defuse the situation, you’re both likely to have strong opinions. Don’t fall prey to your own impulsive desires; you’ll be happier if you take the high road by showing your willingness to compromise.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Sometimes you excel at avoiding issues that can positively impact your daily routine. However, you may be ready to start a new exercise program or diet with today’s New Moon in your 6th House of Health and Habits. Just make sure that your resolve matches your enthusiasm. Don’t try to improve everything all at once; create a manageable plan so you don’t fall short of your goals.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
The powerful Scorpio New Moon increases your romantic desires as it stimulates your 5th House of Love and Creativity. You want to present a more passionate side of yourself today and may be very serious about making others understand what you’re feeling. Ironically, you could try so hard that your intensity gets in the way of your message. Fortunately, you can lighten up the energy by being more playful. You’ll have a better shot at reaching satisfaction if everyone is at ease.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You may have big ideas about what you want to accomplish at work today, but the inflexible Scorpio New Moon in your 4th House of Home and Family uncovers pressing domestic responsibilities. You might be overly concerned that these personal issues could hijack your professional aspirations, but surprisingly they could give you more energy than they take. Don’t resist what you have to do because a methodical approach will enable you to do it all.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You might try to reclaim your power and make some last minute changes to your schedule. But it won’t be as easy as you think because it’s difficult to break commitments without creating a whole new set of problems. Today’s rigid Scorpio New Moon activates your 3rd House of Immediate Environment, reminding you to follow through on previous promises before unnecessarily making your life even more complicated.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Make the most of today’s perceptive Scorpio New Moon in your 2nd House of Money by planning your finances for the next few weeks. It doesn’t matter if your cash flow is in good or bad condition; you benefit either way by creating a sensible budget. Just keep in mind that you could make a significant error if you take any shortcuts. Take your time and think through your assumptions; it’s better to be safe than sorry.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You may believe that your wishes can come true today as the New Moon in your sign plants seeds of intention in your 1st House of Self. But a difficult Mercury-Pluto aspect could turn a casual desire into an obsession if you don’t temper extreme emotions with a more calculated and logical approach. Go ahead and ask for what you want, but then let go of your attachment to the outcome. Paradoxically, relaxing your grip on the reins will actually give you more control in the long run.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You may feel as if a phase of your life is nearing conclusion, but this is really a sign that new opportunities are around the next corner. The mysterious Scorpio New Moon in your 12th House of Destiny opposes your key planet Jupiter, making the current transition even more significant than you realize. Just don’t expect your natural optimism to make up for a lack of work. Scaling back your expectations and working harder should help you get what you want.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Today’s controlling Scorpio New Moon in your 11th House of Social Networking encourages you to reserve your participation in a group until you are sure that your intentions are aligned with theirs. Don’t be overly casual about your involvement with friends and associates now, for they could change the direction of your current trajectory. Rather than going along with the crowd, establish your own path based on what’s most important to you.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Your career is most likely your main focus today as the potent Scorpio New Moon spotlights your 10th House of Public Status. You are wise to seriously consider your options prior to initiating any new plans because spending energy on a project that distracts you from your real goals is a waste of time. Trust your intuition now; it will steer you in the right direction.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You are resistant to being talked out of your opinions today with the penetrating Scorpio New Moon falling in your 9th House of Beliefs. You think that you can see through the veils of illusion and into the inner core of reality, but all is not exactly as it appears. The Moon’s opposition to optimistic Jupiter makes it easy to convince yourself that your ideas are facts. Be vigilant and make sure your goals are realistic before finding yourself too far along a road that’s taking you in the wrong direction.
Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, October 26th
If you read yesterday’s calendar entry carefully, you know that the dark-of-the-moon time-period of the month is in effect this morning and until the New Moon occurs at 12:57PM PDT. The key is to finish old business in the first part of the day as Mars forms a supportive, 60-degree alliance with Saturn (2:39AM PDT), Mercury parallels Pluto (4:15AM PDT), the Moon in Libra is void from 5:19AM PDT until 8:09AM PDT (when the Moon enters Scorpio), Venus parallels Ceres (6:21AM PDT), the Moon unites with Juno (9:02AM PDT), Venus makes a 30-degree tie to Saturn (10:35AM PDT), and Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree link to Pluto (12:29PM PDT). Here are seven fairly important alignments – most uplifting, empowering and productivity-enhancing – but they are all encouraging you to complete enterprises that you already have been working on for weeks or months. Once the New Moon occurs (activating 4 degrees of Scorpio at 12:57PM PDT), the usual rule of thumb is to leap ahead with bold plans across the board and especially associated with in-depth research and investigative work. Causing a potential challenge just a few hours later is a sharp Venus-Mars square in fixed, power signs (3:24PM PDT). Love vibrations take a turn for the worse and social affairs may seem more subdued and turbulent than usual. A Sun-Neptune parallel (7:36PM PDT) opens the gates of psychic attunement while Juno trine Chiron in water signs (10:25PM PDT) is a notable boost for emotional empowerment. These two evening sky patterns are magnified as Pallas re-enters the universal air sign of Aquarius (8:34PM PDT) until February 11, 2012.
Cosmic Calendar for Tuesday, October 25th
It would be great to say that happy days are here again, but the cosmos does not seem to be offering that testimony right now. Instead, last night’s Sun-Uranus 150-degree contact hangs over today as a kind of gigantic question mark concerning whether a breakdown or breakthrough is in the ethers. Keep moving toward a breakthrough in higher consciousness as the Sun makes a contra-parallel with Jupiter (3:16AM PDT) and despite the rude awakenings caused by Venus moving harshly via 45-degrees to Pluto (6:10AM PDT) and while the Sun evokes the wrath of Ceres via a 135-degree connection (7:56AM PDT). These three alignments are all of the challenging kind – although the Sun and Jupiter in their formation can lift your spirits if you are studying any subject of importance in the spheres of knowledge and wisdom. The Venus-Pluto and Sun-Ceres contacts are more akin to being emotional trouble-makers and, if you add on the monthly, cautionary Moon-Saturn union in Libra (7:05PM PDT), the whole tone of the day looks rather gloomy. This is magnified because we are now in the extreme time-period known as the dark-of-the-moon or the Balsamic Moon when the lunar orb is about to re-unite with its solar partner as the New Moon in Scorpio occurs tomorrow at 12:57PM PDT. Therefore, think of today’s 24-hour time-period as a golden opportunity to finish old business with a flourish and not to allow negative thinking to spoil any progress you can make along the relationship horizon.
Your Horoscopes for Monday, October 24th
We are aware of the power of our passions now that the Sun, Mercury and Venus are swimming in the deep waters of Scorpio. But the Moon’s shift into diplomatic Libra at 11:49 am EDT reminds us that compromise can establish common ground in relationships. Nevertheless, acquiescing isn’t easy with constrictive Saturn also in Libra. We try to be objective, but still can lose our cool as the Moon opposes wild Uranus and squares fierce Pluto.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You may try to please everyone today, but you could end up alienating others if you don’t consider your needs, too. The social Libra Moon in your 7th House of Relationships tempts you to deny your own desires in favor of taking care of someone else. Unfortunately, codependency won’t help you or your partner reach satisfaction. Avoid the trappings of frustration by expressing what you want as honestly as possible. Friendship and intimacy grow from a foundation of integrity and trust.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You want to be of service to others now that the Moon is in your 6th House of Work, but making money isn’t necessarily your primary concern. You might be drawn to helping those who are less fortunate than you, or, maybe, you wish to pay back a debt to society to balance old karma. In any case, it’s healthy to know your limits by considering what you’re willing to give up to achieve your altruistic goals. Making commitments is serious business, so think twice before overextending yourself.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You’re determined to find ways to alter the daily routine of your life, but you’re not interested in upsetting the status quo. You just want to provide room for making improvements. Perhaps you have grown tired of having so many good ideas, only to discover that the big things in your life remain unchanged. Unfold your new goals slowly; the tiniest modifications can have the longest lasting impact.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Family dynamics are highlighted when the Moon returns to your 4th House of Security today. But if parenting is your primary responsibility, then you might just have less free time available for other activities now. But having a good time isn’t your primary motivation; it’s more about being available to those you love, even if it prevents you from doing something you enjoy. Fortunately, the quiet satisfaction derived from nurturing a loved one may be the greatest gift you can receive.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You may require some downtime today so you can think about the recent twists and turns in your life. Unfortunately, the road ahead is not very easy to navigate, so it’s a sensible idea to visualize a more direct route to success. Don’t be concerned if there aren’t immediate changes in your circumstances, for it may take some time for the current resistance to fade away.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You could run into a speed bump on the road of life today and though it requires you to slow down, there’s no need for a detour. Just take unexpected events in stride and do the best you can. Don’t allow yourself to succumb to discouragement, even if you face a major setback. Consider obstacles as perfect opportunities to keep improving your plan. Strengthening your body and mind now will increase your chances to succeed.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
It’s harder these days to take your responsibilities lightly because the Moon and somber Saturn are both in your sign, setting the tone for the day. Don’t waste precious energy trying to put on a cheerful face for others, just because that’s what they expect from you. It isn’t your job to make everyone feel okay about the issues you face. Nevertheless, it’s up to you to look inward and ask yourself tough questions so you can gain clarity about the next phase of your life.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You may not want to talk about your emotions with the Moon and Saturn hiding out in your 12th House of Secrecy. But your need to be alone doesn’t include your very best friends or lover, since you long for the deep emotional connections that can break through your current isolation. Remember that interpersonal walls are created by mutual consent, so open your heart to invite in those with whom you want to share your life.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You only have so much free time available today, but you still want to escape for a bit, anyhow. Meanwhile, your workmates and friends keep reminding you of how many tasks you still have to complete. There are only so many hours in the day, so you may not be able to take time off to play now. Nevertheless, remaining focused on what’s most crucial will be rewarded later on. There’s no need to explain your choices; just follow your instincts and take care of the business at hand.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You may feel a lot of stress now, but this is your perfect chance to prove your competence to your boss. The reflective Moon and karmic Saturn in your 10th House of Career marks the culmination of your recent efforts or the beginning of an exciting new project. In either case, this is no time to relax. Don’t worry if no one seems to be acknowledging your contribution. Recognition is likely to happen soon enough.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Even well thought-out plans could meet up with opposition, but your ideas can still reach fruition if you’re open to making smart changes. Don’t be stubborn; acting as if you’re on top won’t help you reach your goals any faster. Something must change; fortunately, others are willing to meet you halfway if you demonstrate some flexibility. There’s no need to give up if you’re wise enough to modify your strategy.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You could face a difficult situation today if you must deal with someone who holds authority over you while remaining unsupportive of your efforts. It may be a difficult climb and although it requires extra determination to reach your destination, the process also makes you stronger. Don’t complain about your obligations; just roll up your sleeves and get busy. If you put forth your best effort the rewards will eventually follow.
Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of October 24
Relationships grow more complex during this first full week of the Sun in emotionally intense Scorpio. Desire increases and our willingness to compromise needs to gain approval diminishes. Wednesday’s pivotal square between ardent Mars and alluring Venus can’t help but dramatize romantic matters.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Your ruling planet Mars in dramatic Leo runs into a stressful square with romantic Venus in passionate Scorpio on Wednesday that raises the stakes in your personal life. Honestly facing some deeper issues in relationships is hard work this week. You or your partner may want more or, if you’re single, your desire for intimacy could lead to some risky behavior. Nevertheless, exposing your hidden feelings can liberate you with the truth; just try not to go to extreme measures to prove your point.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
There’s nothing casual about your relationships this week with Wednesday’s passionate Scorpio New Moon landing in your 7th House of Partners. It’s time to push the envelope by seeking deeper satisfaction instead of settling for a safe but unfulfilling status quo. The price, however, is a willingness to let go of some of your stubborn patterns in exchange for achieving a greater degree of intimacy.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Feeling underappreciated or over-criticized can put you in a feisty mood this week. Your key planet Mercury’s stressful square with combative Mars can trigger harsh words on Friday. However, the message is about improving yourself rather than complaining to others or resisting reasonable advice. Cleaning up your act is a great way to feel better about yourself and, at the same time, makes you more attractive to others.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
The passionate Scorpio New Moon falls in your 5th House of Romance on Wednesday, which should enliven your personal life one way or another. However, the path to love and pleasure could be a rocky one with conflicting ideas and values to negotiate with your current partner or a potential new one. Don’t hesitate if your heart tells you to reach out and express your desires. But if your emotions urge you to withdraw, don’t act too hastily. Retreating to your shell now is not the best option when it comes to finding love.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Irrepressible Mars in your willful sign encourages you to keep pushing for who and what you want. But loving Venus’ stressful square to the warrior planet is a mid-week reminder to be more sensitive in your seductions. Tuning in to what someone wants and subtly altering your actions to fulfill those desires will make you even more enchanting to those around you. As long as you remain true to your principles, putting others first works like a charm now.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
It’s finally time to have some deep conversations about matters of significant personal concern. If you are tempted to aggressively defend your position, you could win the battle but lose in the game of love. Don’t look for quick solutions to restore faith in an ongoing alliance or to get a new one heading in a favorable direction. Honesty and vulnerability are your allies in spite of the complications they arouse. Take the first step by opening your heart and you might be pleasantly surprised at what happens next.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Hinting at what you want is unlikely to succeed this week. Your romantic ruling planet Venus in subtle Scorpio would prefer to give indirect signals rather than to be straightforward in expressing your needs. But Wednesday’s stressful square between cosmic lovers Mars and Venus indicates that staying quiet can leave you very dissatisfied. It’s better to be just a little pushy and deal with others’ discomfort in the moment than to remain silent and unhappy any longer.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
This is a very powerful time for pushing your romantic agenda forward. The passionate Scorpio New Moon and a sexy square between Venus and Mars kick up strong feelings this week. The key to success is in understanding your desires and being able to express them without making others feel uncomfortable or guilty. An alluring invitation to enter into your world of pleasure just might be irresistible to the right playmate.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Secrets can play a big role in your personal life this week with Wednesday’s New Moon in confidential Scorpio falling in your mysterious 12th house. If you’ve been hiding something, even from yourself, it might come out in the open now. Respecting others’ privacy may make the difference between strengthening or weakening a relationship. Discussing delicate matters requires all the sensitivity that you can muster, but is well worth the effort if both parties open their hearts to the process.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Your sense of order and ambition may need to be set aside so that you can look past the surface to feel what’s going on underneath it. What’s not being said now may be more powerful than any words you hear. Listen with your gut instead of your ears and you may tune in to an important message. Being a good friend, even at some sacrifice to your own immediate interests, earns you a special kind of loyalty that will pay big dividends later.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Your airy intellectual sign tends to rely a great deal on rational thinking. Logic is a great thing, yet the planetary patterns that dominate this week are much more about evoking emotions. If you apply reason to a relationship matter, you might fail to connect and understand what’s really going on. Tune in to your own non-rational senses and you will recognize what you need to do. Silence can tell you so much more than words now, so give yourself the chance to listen.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Wednesday’s sexy Scorpio New Moon falls in your 9th House of Travel and Learning. Your desire to understand life’s mysteries may attract you to philosophical individuals and people from faraway places. If you’re in a less-than-fulfilling relationship now, discussing your core beliefs and long-term goals should help you discover if this partnership has a future, and what you need to do to make it a rewarding one. If you aren’t feeling the love in return, it just might be the right time to strike out on your own.
Cosmic Calendar for Friday, October 21st
There are a couple of challenges today, but not as many as will appear in the coming days and once the Sun shifts into Scorpio on Sunday October 23. Consider today a kind of appetizer for the main course to be served during the next ten days to follow. A Mercury-Mars contra-parallel (12:51AM PDT) combines with the Moon in Leo uniting with the red planet Mars (1:13PM PDT) to definitely add several units to the volatility index. Psychic storm warnings are posted and need to be watched – especially on the emotional front. Fortunately, the Moon parallels ebullient Jupiter (5:10AM PDT) while Ceres makes an inspirational, productivity-enhancing, 72-degree link with Pluto (6:38AM PDT), and the Sun forms a revelatory, flowing trine in air signs with Neptune (4:58PM PDT). Thus, as a whole and hoping that the two Mars-oriented sky patterns remain carefully cloistered away in the shadows, you can make some well-needed progress across the board today. Even a Venus-Mars contra-parallel (4:28PM PDT) may be able to assist you in balancing your feminine and masculine sides more effectively. Enjoy a night of entertainment or invite friends over for an impromptu party.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, October 20th
We’re encouraged to express ourselves with flair as the Moon dances into dramatic Leo at 6:05 am EDT. Her trine to rebellious Uranus makes us less concerned with what others think about our wild behavior. The Moon’s square to overblown Jupiter pumps us up with self-confidence even further. However, an otherworldly Venus-Pluto septile can throw us an emotional curve ball, while an unsettling Sun-Uranus septile adds even more surprises to the mix.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You may have an excess of physical energy today, but you could squander your reserves if you aren’t careful. Wasting your time on something unimportant can be draining, but fortunately it won’t likely have a lasting negative impact. Nevertheless, you would be wise to work smarter rather than harder in order to maximize the opportunities that come your way.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You may not fully understand all the dynamics that are impacting your family relationships today as the Moon enters your 4th House of Domestic Conditions. However, you can feel the tension increasing so you know something is brewing. Don’t get discouraged by your lack of direction. Maintaining your established course could be difficult now, yet being patient is still your best strategy until clarity returns.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You might be so distracted by the array of tasks you need to complete today that you can’t figure out where to begin. It seems that as soon as you make a specific plan, something happens that requires you to reconsider your previous choice. Frustration can set in when certainty is replaced by self-doubt again and again. You could believe that an absolute answer will solve everything now, but if possible, it’s smarter to hold off making a final decision until next week.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
The Moon enters your 2nd House of Personal Resources today, encouraging you to pay attention to managing what you currently have, rather than trying to accumulate more. Although it’s time to build on what you have already started, muddled motives could detract from your efficiency now. Don’t bother attempting to justify your actions because your explanations will just grow increasingly convoluted. Keep things as simple as you can and try to finish whatever you begin.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Everyone seems to believe that your feelings are transparent today as the Moon returns to your sign. However, chances are that no one truly knows what you need, even if others try to convince you that they do. Unfortunately, your emotions can get in the way of your words, so you might not be very effective when you try to explain what you want. Tone down your expectations and practice flexibility; asking for less could actually bring you more than you think.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
The Moon squares extroverted Jupiter today from your 12th House of Secrets, creating a stress between your desire to connect with others and your need to be alone. It’s challenging to share exactly what you want now because even the act of communicating conflicts with your reclusive yearnings. Instead of trying to change the current situation, just observe your emotional reactions to what’s happening. Living with the paradox for a few days builds character and won’t be as difficult as it sounds.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You have wonderful friends who are eager to play with you today. However, you may grow annoyed with others if they are too distracting because you have responsibilities to fulfill. Don’t take yourself so seriously now; no one will fault you for taking some time to enjoy yourself as long as you return to your obligations later in the day.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Your planet Pluto falls under the beautiful spell of alluring Venus today, attracting you to the idea of experiencing sensual pleasure. Nevertheless, your thoughts — however exquisite they may be — are not grounded in experience now, so it’s not wise to act on these current desires. Don’t expect someone out of the blue to deliver your fantasies. Just enjoy your dreams for what they are, without needing to make them real.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You have been contemplating the big picture lately — something you do quite well — yet now it’s time to put your grand plan into motion. Fortunately, courageous Mars and the Moon are both visiting your adventurous 9th house today, motivating you to accomplish your goals. You are in a dynamic period of growth, so don’t wait for a better time to initiate action.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Powerful Pluto in your 1st House of Personality receives a nod of approval from valuable Venus today, encouraging you to pursue pleasure or material wealth. You may not understand the intensity of your current ambition, but this is not the time for analysis. Push steadily toward your goals because you have the necessary inner resolve to overcome most obstacles now. Set your mind on your destination and then don’t let anything or anyone distract you.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
A close friend or ally may appear to turn against you today as the fiery Leo Moon marches into your 7th House of Others. Even a casual conversation could become argumentative now because combative Mars is stirring up trouble in this relationship house. Fortunately, you should be able to avoid a conflict if you remember that diplomacy is smarter than outright conflict. Negotiating a peaceful solution is better than trying to sidestep the subject, even if it’s uncomfortable at first.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Although you could face a confrontation at work today, you might not be able to get to the source of the squabble. Your interactions with coworkers aren’t as simple as they seem on the surface, for unspoken feelings can make communication awkward. Thankfully, you can reduce the emotional charge on an unpleasant situation by taking the higher road and considering the larger picture, instead of only focusing on what’s in it for you.
Cosmic Calendar for October 18th
The good news right now is that there is less intensity happening in the psychic atmosphere today than yesterday. However, some of the havoc created on Monday – via the Mars-Uranus and Mercury-Jupiter clashes – still remains in effect. Meanwhile, the Moon in Cancer is your celestial reminder to deal with residential chores like making the kitchen and bath areas shine again, sprucing up the living room or conducting major clean-up campaigns. Cooking and baking are highlighted. Experimenting with soups, chowders and seafood dishes hits the spot. After the Moon creates some consternation by opposing Pluto (4:35AM PDT), the lunar orb is a favorable influence by forming a supportive, 60-degree alliance with giant Jupiter (7:33AM PDT), and making flowing trines to Mercury (10:31AM PDT) and Venus (6:01PM PDT). The major challenging planetary conflict comes from Mars forming an off-kilter, 150-degree link to Ceres (12:11PM PDT). Be extra sensitive and kind to maternal figures, children and pets. Becoming angry over a trifle is taboo. A wave of nostalgia can easily rise to the surface tonight under the Cancer Moon vibrations which often summon the past and historical events with ease. A Mercury-Venus parallel (9:57PM PDT) can also be a signal that all is well on the friendship and romantic fronts since both of these celestial bodies are in passion-centered Scorpio.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, October 18th
Although we are often emotionally reserved when the Moon visits reflective Cancer, today her volatile square to unruly Uranus and impassioned opposition to intense Pluto push our tempers to the edge. Thankfully, easygoing trines to communicator Mercury and friendly Venus later in the day enable us to talk more calmly about our feelings. We may share more than we intend, yet expressing ourselves can ultimately lead to a more relaxed atmosphere.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You might think that remaining quiet is a sensible strategy today, but you won’t likely avoid conflict by relying on defensive maneuvers. It’s tempting to believe that you’ll keep your feelings to yourself, but unexpressed emotions have a way of hijacking your day. It’s no fun to lose your temper, so get your concerns out into the open instead of naively assuming that things will improve on their own.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
Communicating with others seems so easy today that you may think that you’re missing something. Unfortunately, you are probably glossing over a critical fact or conveniently forgetting what you were told. Thankfully, you can choose to focus extra attention on the details of your interactions. The simple act of concentrating on the present moment, instead of letting your mind wander, can help prevent an unnecessary misunderstanding.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Your ruling planet Mercury is wired by electric Uranus today, exciting your nervous system and lifting your spirits. Unconventional ideas can be distracting because they aren’t necessarily practical, and you may not be interested in applying your creativity now because you don’t want to slow down your unrestrained thinking process. Although facing the limitations of your current circumstances might not sound great at first, putting your feet back on the ground will make you feel better in the long run.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You would like to talk about your feelings now that the Moon is back in your sign, even if you’re also feeling a bit shy. Nevertheless, you won’t likely go out of your way to bring up an issue that could provoke someone to withdraw from you. However, once you understand that your fear of abandonment can precipitate exactly what you’re trying to avoid, it will be easier to acknowledge the intense emotions that are being revealed at this time.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Don’t trust others who promise you the world because they may not be telling you the whole story now that the Moon is in your secretive 12th house. It might be wiser for you to take care of business as if you were on your own today, even if someone offers to help you. Nevertheless, it’s safe to listen to those who are supportive of your cause, even if they don’t have easy answers. Ultimately, having faith in yourself is your best strategy.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your key planet Mercury connects with brilliant Uranus today, sparking your imagination with unconventional thoughts and intense desires. However, you might play your hand tentatively because you don’t want to upset your friends or destabilize an existing relationship. Still, it may be impossible to avoid a confrontation if someone oversteps your boundaries. Do whatever you must do in order to protect your territory as long as you don’t intentionally hurt anyone else in the process.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Your need to nurture others at work can make you feel indispensable today with the Moon’s presence in your 10th House of Public Responsibility. However, meddling in other people’s affairs can also create a real mess if you go too far. Don’t fall into the trap of believing that no one can get along without your assistance now. It’s healthier to wait until someone asks you for help before jumping in and taking over.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You are tenaciously holding on to a fascinating idea today, even if it isn’t very practical. You may not have time now to seriously develop your plan, yet you still can derive pleasure from just thinking about the possibilities. Keep in mind that you could turn a rather simple desire into such a big deal that the original thought is lost. Give yourself permission to dream, but don’t lose perspective on what’s real and what’s not.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Mischievous Mercury can trick you into thinking that your new idea is a brilliant one, but you should probably keep your thoughts to yourself today until you decide how much to share with others. You could spoil your chances for success by telling someone about your plan before the details are actually in place. Although you often can get away with developing your strategy on the fly, being more cautious now works in your favor.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You are usually more self-restrained than others in your group, but today all bets are off. It’s not that your energy is out of control now; it’s just that you are aligned with a higher purpose, adding intensity to your words and actions. Thankfully, your friends and co-workers are eager to listen to you unfold your strategy, so tell them exactly what you’re thinking, even if you aren’t sure how all the pieces will ultimately fit together.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You aren’t very comfortable when so many images and ideas are swirling around in your brain that you don’t know what to do next. Mercury’s alignment with your key planet Uranus can amuse you with all the possibilities, but you still grow dizzy watching the mental fireworks. Instead of passively dreaming about your future, concentrate your attention on a single goal and maintain your focus until it is within reach.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Although you may appear quietly confident today, you might not have that much to say yet. You’re riding a wave of creativity with the Moon visiting your 5th House of Self-Expression, but the real action is taking place within your mind and out of sight from everyone’s watchful gaze. Don’t feel obliged to prove your brilliance to anyone now; just gently express what’s most important to you once you’re comfortable with the results of your inner process.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, October 16th
Today’s breezy Gemini Moon stimulates our thoughts as she emphasizes the mental element of Air. Nevertheless, we can still feel the weight of the Sun’s proximity to somber Saturn, especially as the Moon moves to trine Saturn later tonight. But we won’t miss a trick now because clever Mercury forms a cooperative sextile to incisive Pluto, making our perceptions very acute while a persuasive Sun-Pluto quintile strengthens our convictions.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You are given another chance to learn your lesson today, but you would be wise to get it right this time because you may not be able to avoid the consequences of your current deeds. However, it isn’t just about your behavior; you’re being judged now on the value of your ideas, too. If you are serious about communicating your position, you could earn an opportunity to put your words into action.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You are taking your responsibilities quite seriously today, yet you still might be challenged to complete a project that you have already started. You’re easily distracted now by shiny objects or intriguing ideas, yet you’re better off if you stick to your work, even if it feels ordinary and boring. Thankfully, your concentrated effort should bring the positive acknowledgment you seek if your actions are aligned with your intentions.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You could easily waste time spinning your wheels today without getting very much accomplished. However, you can increase your efficiency by simply reconsidering your schedule and prioritizing your tasks. Taking yourself seriously might be sufficient cause to sit down and actually make a list of what you need to do. Normally, you might lack the patience for this kind of approach, but making plans ahead of time now will be worth the effort.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
No matter how much time you put into organizing your day, it won’t likely unfold according to your plan. Mental Mercury’s sextile with powerful Pluto in your 7th House of Others can bring a domineering person into your life now that isn’t shy about running the show. Although you might choose to set your needs aside for a while, don’t be so quick to say yes to someone else. Give yourself the benefit of the doubt and make your own dreams come true first.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You might be wise today to consider any lingering issues of self-esteem. You Lions are usually seen as proud creatures who on occasion overstep your regular bounds to roar about your confidence, but the tables may be turned now. However, there’s no need to worry about the outcome of a current situation that is still up in the air. Do whatever you can to make things work before letting go of your attachment to what happens.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your key planet Mercury aligns with passionate Pluto in your 5th House of Self-Expression today, infusing you with strong feelings that fuel your creative process. Even if you’re feeling optimistic, you could be fighting an uphill battle against serious circumstances. Nevertheless, you can surprise others now, and even yourself, with a more spontaneous approach to life. Don’t try to change everything overnight; give yourself a few days to loosen your grip on the reins of control.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You may be able to live up to other people’s expectations today, but you’ll need to ignore your own desires in the process. However, your closest friends and family can’t help but wonder if you’re hiding something. Thankfully, you’re still able to lighten up the mood and display a more playful side of your nature. Just don’t get sidetracked by your need to prove yourself to anyone else or you won’t be able to fully enjoy your day.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You can literally feel the power of your beliefs today as the Sun and Mercury align with unrelenting Pluto in your 3rd House of Communication, adding intensity to your words. Ironically, exercising self-restraint brings even more strength to your message. Nevertheless, don’t expect too much too fast; everything will continue to improve if you let it do so at its own pace.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You’re eager to be distracted from your chores by someone else’s agenda today, yet you can’t just walk away from your previous promises. Even though you are usually the one who seeks out adventure, your friends might be the ones with all the good ideas now. Naturally, you want to play with them, but it may be wiser to set boundaries and keep yourself on course to your destination. Believe it or not, achieving your goals sometimes is more important than having fun.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Witty Mercury aligns with transformative Pluto in your sign today, empowering you to say things that can have a positive impact on others. Mercury allows you to engage in a stimulating discussion now, without having to win the debate or even trying to convince anyone that your perspective is valid. Instead of attempting to prove anyone wrong, look for ways to make everyone right. Your open-minded outlook is a great example for others to follow.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You’re able to cleverly turn a sobering conversation into one of hope and inspiration today. What starts out feeling like a setback with a friend or partner can become powerful grist for your mill. You were looking for something significant to chew on and now it’s here. Don’t give up too easily; it’s going to take plenty of time for your special magic to work.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
An easygoing friendship could become more frustrating today if there is disagreement about the fundamental nature of reality. Oddly enough, you can both experience the same events while forming very different perspectives. Instead of trying to establish who is right, just put your assumptions and conclusions out on the table. Establishing common ground is all that’s needed to lighten up the energy for everyone involved.
Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, October 16th
For the most part, today continues yesterday’s cosmic trend of not overwhelming you too much with heavy-duty planetary onslaughts. Gemini Moon remains the psychic backdrop – offering you a mental boost across the board. The key challenge arrives early when Venus in Scorpio squares Vesta in Aquarius (6:07AM PDT). On a work day, this type of link would be highly unfavorable for dealing with business matters and investments. The fact that it is happening on a Sunday still carries a punch and warns against becoming too flippant about financial concerns. There may also be issues related to home and hearth, safety and security, insurance rates and coverage, as well as sister-oriented communications. Distant Pluto plays the good guy role today by making a supportive, 60-degree alliance with Mercury (9:59AM PDT) and an inspirational, 72-degree liaison with the Sun (1:21PM PDT). It is a rather rare occurrence for Pluto to make two favorable alignments in one 24-hour time-period while also making no challenging alignments. Therefore, tap into your spiritual willpower and laser-like concentration to take a great leap forward somewhere in your life. Get set for a new round of cosmic surprises arriving on Spaceship Earth tomorrow.
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for October 14th – 16th
by Jeff Jawer
Picking up SpeedOctober 14 – 16 |
Friday is perfect for life in the slow lane. The mood-setting Moon is in stable Taurus, which likes to find a comfortable situation and stay in it as long as possible. This sensual Earth sign, though, is especially hungry for love, companionship and pleasure on Friday when its amorous ruling planet Venus opposes Jupiter. This yummy alignment of attractive Venus and expansive Jupiter increases appetites for all the delicious things in life. Self-indulgence, though, is one risk, while over-estimating someone else is another. Stretching the boundaries of taste is appropriate as long as it doesn’t cost too much. Still, don’t forget about the powers of food and touch to tap into the best the Bull has to offer.
The pace changes considerably on Saturday when the Moon bounces into jittery Gemini. Energy is all over the place with a hundred ideas and activities calling for attention. Conversations flow freely in this chatty sign, but it’s also easy to talk without commitment or a profound depth of feeling. Friendliness and flirtatiousness are traits more associated with fickle Gemini than fidelity, so people tend to avoid serious issues to keep things light-hearted. Still, Gemini’s verbal ruling planet Mercury forms a supportive aspect with incisive Pluto on Sunday that makes deeper discussions more likely.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, October 10th
Although we may be dreaming of the future or reminiscing about the past, the Moon’s blast into fiery Aries at 8:57 am EDT resets our emotional cycles and brings our feelings back to the present moment. The power of now is intensified by the Moon’s conjunction with instantaneous Uranus and her square with unrelenting Pluto. Meanwhile, we’re challenged to stabilize our desires today as attractive Venus forms an uncomfortable quincunx with Uranus.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You’re riding on an adrenaline surge today and although you like it, you’d be happier if you thought you were in charge of your own life. As it is, you might have authority over some things, but the larger waves are completely out of your control. Don’t bother wasting your time attempting to change circumstances that are beyond your reach; instead, focus on responding to the shifting currents as best as you can.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You might not feel very relaxed today, yet you can be very productive if you forget about trying to take the day off. Ironically, you may enjoy doing mundane chores around the home or office once you get into gear. But don’t seek approval from anyone else; unfortunately, others probably won’t tell you what you want to hear now. Work for the satisfaction of a job well done.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
This can be an exciting day if you aren’t afraid of trying something completely new and different. Push beyond your old limits, but don’t take yourself too seriously in the process. Although you’re often more lighthearted, you could be overly concerned now about getting everything just right. Relax your expectations so you can have fun, no matter what happens.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You are tempted to take on too much today and might feel discouraged later on, once you realize that you can’t complete everything you started. Thankfully, the solution is rather simple: be more cautious prior to making a commitment. It’s a good idea to begin a project slowly and pick up speed as you go along. It’s always better to promise less and deliver more.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You are ready to cook up a grandiose scheme with today’s enterprising Aries Moon visiting your 9th House of Big Ideas. Luckily, courageous Mars in your fixed sign now gives you the unflappable determination to turn the craziest of your ideas into reality. If you recently scaled back a project, consider pushing it forward again until you can see progress.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You try to think of everything in advance, but no amount of detailed research can prepare you for the surprising twists and turns that your life is currently taking. However, don’t get so caught up in the present moment or you’ll forget about your original intention. Nevertheless, setting your old plans aside enables you to be even more effective in executing your new ones.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Someone might catch you off guard by overreacting to what you say or do in a way that’s hard to understand. But don’t be negative today just because you are uncomfortable with anyone who takes an approach that is different from yours. Even if others seem brash, remember that you can be big enough to allow for the wide variety of people you encounter. Taking the high road now may be more beneficial than you expect.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You might not have much patience today, yet your spontaneity is countered by your unrelenting drive to finish anything you start. It would be a mistake for anyone to think that you are all talk now, even if you have a lot to say. Back up your promises with decisive action that is focused on getting your work completed as quickly as possible.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You are in a high-frequency state of excitement, but some of your intensity is less than apparent. With Venus now in your 12th House of Secrets, there may be more going on than is stated in today’s subject line. But your self-expression is irrepressible, spurring you to find ways to work off some of your excess energy. Hitting the gym or taking a long walk may be an ideal way to get your mojo flowing and things moving in the right direction.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You could be a bit frustrated today because you don’t feel like fighting to stay on top; however, you don’t want to convince yourself to relax now, only to discover that you missed an important opportunity. The biggest challenge is in believing that things really could get easier from this point on. But whether or not the hardest part is over, you can set your life in a better direction by affirming your positive future in the present moment.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You may have an idea about how you want to spend your day until someone crosses your path with an entirely different agenda. Your immediate reaction is to explain why your plan is the best course of action. However, you’ll only create bigger problems if you set up a competitive situation where there will be only one winner. Establishing common ground enables everyone to work successfully together as a team.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You don’t like it if anyone tells you what to do today, especially since your mind is already made up. Nevertheless, it’s much better to avoid open conflict now and visualize what could be possible if everyone was more cooperative. However, you don’t have to let others push you too far, especially if they’re messing with your core values. Give them a fair warning and then take whatever action is required to maintain your integrity.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, October 8th
The compassionate Pisces Moon enables us to perceive the circumstances of our lives from a wider point of view that encompasses the feelings of others less fortunate. The Moon’s sextile to expansive Jupiter amplifies our sensitivity, making it difficult to know whether an emotion is originating from our own internal process or as a result of someone else’s. Thankfully, we can gain clarity from cerebral Mercury’s smart quintile to incisive Pluto.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You might wish that you could hide today with the Moon in your 12th House of Privacy, but you have already made promises that prevent you from slipping into a black hole and disappearing from view. Nevertheless, you can become quieter than usual, which may cause others to wonder if you’re okay. There’s nothing wrong with wanting some personal space. You’re not obliged to explain your emotional retreat unless you truly want to, but at least let someone know when you plan on returning.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You’re a bit unclear about your specific duties at work today, yet asking your coworkers for clarification may not help you at all. Instead, take a few minutes and make a detailed list of what you think your job entails. This exercise might prove surprising because it enables you to make sense of what you have to do. However, don’t hesitate to ask your boss for more direction if you’re still uncertain.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You may feel as if you want to take care of everyone at work today, but this isn’t a good idea if it distracts you from fulfilling your responsibilities. Fortunately, you should be able to find a healthy balance between helping others and remaining true to yourself. Keep in mind that you will need to establish clear boundaries now so you don’t lose yourself in other people’s problems. The good you might do for someone else will ultimately be wasted if you let your own life fall apart.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Your dreams of going on a long journey can take on a life of their own today as the Moon visits your 9th House of Faraway Places. However, logical Mercury in your 4th House of Security has you thinking about all the reasons to stay at home. Thankfully, there is a healthy middle ground between these two extremes. Don’t be afraid to stretch your limits, but only do what feels safe.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Trusting your intuition can help you negotiate an agreement with a business partner today or find common ground with an adversary. Although logic won’t necessarily reveal your best strategy, clear communication is necessary in order to get others to understand your position. Don’t expect anyone to know what you want by reading your mind. It’s up to you to take the time to explain yourself as succinctly as possible.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
The Moon’s visit to your 7th House of Partnerships increases your need to interact with others today. But communicating with someone else may put you on tricky ground if either of you assumes that you know what the other person is saying before the words are actually spoken. Don’t jump to conclusions or you’ll find yourself spending time untangling the knots created by an unnecessary misunderstanding.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Sometimes you seem wishy-washy to others because your ability to objectively see both sides of an issue makes it tough for you to choose one over the other. However, today you are quite capable of drawing a specific conclusion based upon the information that you have, even if you know that you’re missing some of the facts. Fortunately, what you lack in detail now you can make up in your imagination, and, luckily, you will most likely be correct in your thinking.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Issues of trust come to the surface today as communicator Mercury in your 12th House of Secrets forms a magical quintile with your ruling planet Pluto. Intuitively, you know what’s going on even if no one else wants to talk about it. However, caution is advised because your fears can feed negativity until it’s strong enough to be the main character in a story that’s not grounded in fact. It’s best to talk about your concerns before they grow into a problem that’s harder to handle.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
You may have unrealistic expectations about finding time to relax at home today as the Moon in dreamy Pisces visits your 4th House of Domestic Conditions. You could set your goals so high that you end up being disappointed even if the overall situation isn’t bad at all. Nevertheless, it makes sense to involve family members or your housemates in a discussion about any decisions that impact more than just you. Sharing your concerns will lessen the burden.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Your fair-minded approach to getting ahead professionally should not be mistaken for a laissez-faire attitude. In fact, your easygoing style today can smoothly disarm a possible opponent who doesn’t realize that you should be taken very seriously now. However, there’s really no need to be overly ambitious because it’s better to have supporters than enemies. Ultimately, cooperation is a smarter strategy than competition.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You might not be able to see your financial picture clearly enough today to make an important decision. Still, you are weighing and balancing the alternatives as you attempt to be as objective as possible in the choices you make. Don’t try to convince others that your current options are the best ones because the more you say now the less sensible you sound. Ultimately, your actions really do speak louder than your words.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You may appear to be less certain today than you actually are because the moody Pisces Moon has stopped in for a quick visit to your 1st House of Self. Your feelings seem to be closer to the surface and others know what you’re thinking even before you say anything. Instead of withdrawing, fearful that your sensitivity can make you more vulnerable, use this time to share what’s in your heart with someone you can trust.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, Sept. 28th
The even-keeled Libra Moon joins sweet Venus and strict Saturn, tempting us with delectable pleasures while insisting that we postpone satisfaction. Meanwhile, the Sun’s conflicting square with shadowy Pluto reveals unexpressed motives that may trigger a power struggle in a relationship. Fear of losing control creates additional worry when cerebral Mercury squares Pluto then joins the Sun to focus our intentions and align them with what we say.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Sometimes you forget how forceful you can sound when trying to make your point. You might actually think that you’re the only person who sees the whole truth. Unfortunately, your overconfidence can frustrate your friends and associates today. You’ll get along better with everyone if you just remember that others have the same right as you to their perspectives — even if they conflict with yours.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
You may not be comfortable if you’re put in a position where you have to defend your position today. You might even try to sidestep an important issue by avoiding a direct confrontation. However, conflict becomes more likely if you don’t face the differences head-on. Fortunately, everyone will feel more relieved after everything is out in the open.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
Your mind has been racing so fast that it’s challenging to grab on to any one thought. Today, however, you are determined to follow through and discuss a creative project with someone you trust. Unfortunately, your conversation may take on a life of its own, leading you away from your original idea. Be smart and write down your thoughts so you can stay on track with your message.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You may get angry if you cannot express yourself today, especially if others make you so uncomfortable that you are afraid to say what’s on your mind. You might feel energetically blocked, which negatively impacts your productivity. But don’t shift blame onto someone else if you’re having trouble finishing what you started. Instead, focus your energy on work and concentrate on one task at a time.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You’re excited about having so many choices today, but a co-worker probably has a very different idea about what you should be doing. Unfortunately, attempting to get others to understand your point of view now might only provoke more resistance. Keep in mind that everything probably seems more critical than it actually is, so consider relinquishing a bit of control for the sake of playing nicely with others.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Your key planet Mercury is up against a formidable adversary today as it squares powerful Pluto. You may have shared an idea or started a project in the past few days, yet now you might feel as if your task is more challenging than you thought. Nevertheless, you feel unstoppable and aren’t in the mood to negotiate. But your uncharacteristic aggression can create more problems than you realize. Take several deep breaths and think your next steps through before you swing into action.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You want to be fair about a decision you must make today, but your actions also concern others and they probably won’t agree with your choice. Heightened tensions can precipitate an emotional meltdown, especially if someone is trying to coerce you to play favorites. You may prefer to work out your disagreements peacefully, but standing up to a bully can be exactly what’s needed now to settle things once and for all.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
The peaceable Libra Sun squares your ruling planet Pluto today, driving your passions to the surface. You would like to express your true feelings, without concern about the consequences, yet the Sun in your 12th House of Secrets reminds you that someone close to you can have a totally different perspective. Relationships are already complex enough these days, so think twice before saying something that only complicates things further.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Your friends may not be a source of solace today because they could disagree with you on a fundamental issue, making it difficult for you to feel at ease. You won’t be so quick to let your guard down once you become aware of the gulf between you and others. Instead of falling into the trap of thinking someone must be wrong now, create a larger philosophical framework that can hold many divergent opinions.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You may be ambivalent about taking charge of a project today because you’re not sure about the best way to reach the objectives. Unfortunately, it might ultimately require more effort to say no than to step up to the plate and just do what’s being asked of you. You stand to better your professional status by demonstrating your competence, so think through your options carefully before selecting your route to success.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Your unorthodox approach to life usually allows you to rationalize your most eccentric ideas, but you might feel overly secretive about your current thinking today. Someone may even accuse you of being negative, but that’s just because you haven’t disclosed what’s motivating your decisions. Your intuition is steering you in the right direction; others won’t understand you now even if you try to explain yourself. Letting your unexpressed thoughts ride for a day or two is your best strategy at this time.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You want to get to the bottom of something you’ve been unable to understand, but it may not be so easy now to put all the facts into one coherent story. Even if you try to share what you know, your co-workers might not be very receptive since Pluto in your 11th House of Friends squares communicator Mercury in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. If you find yourself participating in an unnecessary conflict, quietly back away from the situation. You can always reengage the discussion once everyone’s emotions settle down.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, Sept. 27th
The Moon’s shift into socially astute Libra at 12:50 am EDT places relationships under the spotlight. The New Moon at 7:08 am marks a turning point as we consider what’s negotiable and how to get along better with others. However, the pile-up of five planets in easygoing Libra now might take us by surprise as harsh lunar aspects reinforce mental Mercury’s tense opposition to rebellious Uranus and Mars’ uneasy quincunx to ominous Pluto.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Today’s New Moon emphasizes your 7th House of Partnerships, shifting your attention from your personal needs toward those of your friends. You instinctively know what others need and make them feel at ease now before they are even aware of your swift intervention. Don’t be overly intrusive by assuming everyone wants your help. There may not be a valid reason to get involved unless you are asked. Sometimes good intentions aren’t enough.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
The diplomatic Libra New Moon lands in your 6th House of Employment, making it easier for you to prioritize your tasks and negotiate which jobs can be delayed and which must be done right away. You can turn on the charm, enabling you to work well with with others. Fortunately, you’re able to keep up with everything that happens today, even if your efforts aren’t appreciated until later.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
The next few weeks may bring you a new love or revitalize a current relationship. The lovely Libra New Moon reignites your 5th House of Romance and Creativity, which is a propitious sign for you to accomplish as much as you can today. Don’t hesitate; getting started quickly will free up more time later on for pleasurable pursuits.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
Walking down Memory Lane isn’t a new experience, yet today it raises significant issues that you have already considered. Luckily, you can manage your emotions in order to avoid a difficult situation. Nevertheless, don’t get lost in your nostalgic meanderings. Instead, strive to concentrate on the present moment, rather than slipping off into dreamland.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
Although you would like to believe that you know what’s best for you now, it’s still necessary to take enough time to consider the wishes of those around you. Even if you are trying to demonstrate your independence, it’s difficult to set your schedule today before you talk with others in your group. Once you know more about their needs, you’ll be able to better determine your agenda for the day.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You must make a decision about money today, but your options aren’t as definitive as you wish. Unfortunately, the indecisive Libra New Moon in your 2nd House of Finances makes it difficult to get the perspective you were seeking. You may go back and forth without being able to choose, but nothing positive will stem from being too hard on yourself. Wait a few days before completely committing one way or the other.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Today’s New Moon in your sign signals a sudden break from your past if you are ready to place your new intentions into action. But first you must express your desires clearly enough so they can have the impact you desire. Channeling your ideas into practical goals can get you going, but enthusiasm isn’t the only thing that counts. There’s no getting around that you must follow through with perseverance and good old-fashioned hard work.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
Although you’re usually able to keep a secret at any cost, a particular issue could be the source of trouble today. You really want to tell someone everything you know because you believe it will increase your intimacy. Unfortunately, you could go against your promise and spill the beans. But your confidence might be low and you could feel as if whatever you do will turn out wrong. Postpone your conversation until later in the day, when you will have more objectivity at your disposal.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Your social calendar is already jumping, but now you get to take the energy up a notch since the Libra New Moon emphasizes your 11th House of Friends. Give yourself plenty of time to bask in stimulating discussions with like-minded people. Don’t wait too long to gather a group together, for everyone benefits when you share your dreams and your optimistic visions about what ahead.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
Today’s Libra New Moon falls in your 10th House of Public Responsibilities, stirring your ambitions and reminding you of all that you have accomplished. But there still may be more for you to do before starting a new project. Consider the pros and cons of taking on more work prior to saying yes on a job that could leave you exhausted. Creating a healthy balance between work and play is ultimately more fulfilling.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You have an opportunity to expand your horizons now by investigating an exciting and innovative idea. Gathering information about different courses of study should help you decide about school or additional on-the-job training as today’s New Moon activates your 9th House of Higher Education. Just don’t limit the possibilities to practical subjects; go ahead and break out of your self-imposed limitations by exploring a wildly different subject.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Your compassionate approach to other people’s problems can open a door to the possibility of greater intimacy now that the gracious Libra New Moon falls in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Don’t let your fear of the unknown stand between you and someone special. Instead, maintain a balanced approach to the mysteries of love. Exploring the uncharted shadows of a relationship isn’t as scary as it might seem at first.
Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, September 25th
The Sun’s opposition to wild Uranus highlights our need for independence, even while we seek the intimacy of a relationship. Rational Mercury shifts into fair-minded Libra on its way to join the New Moon on Tuesday. Meanwhile, we can get hooked on our own fantasies with a slippery Venus-Neptune alignment. Thankfully, the Moon enters analytical Virgo at 12:49 am EDT, enabling us to separate fact from fiction if we remember to pay attention.
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You think you’re being clear about your needs today, but you still may be sending mixed messages unintentionally. On the other hand, a close friend or partner can run hot and cold, leaving you unsure about where you stand. Ultimately, the shifting energy is quite exciting if you’re able to let go of control. But trying to force your agenda on anyone else is a sure invitation to trouble. Your best strategy is to ride the shifting waves without being attached to any one outcome.
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)
The intensity of your emotions prompts you to retreat so you can be alone today. However, if social activities require you to be around others too much, you might lose your temper and say things you quickly regret. Don’t allow yourself to use harsh words that could undermine a stable relationship. Your key word for the day is cooperation; if anyone wins, then everyone loses.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)
You may be feeling the incongruity between your individual needs and your social responsibilities today. Unfortunately, you might believe that you have to sacrifice one for the other, but this isn’t necessarily true. Although you’re traversing some pretty tricky relationship territory now, the key to your success is in finding balance — even if you must settle for less than you want. As always, honesty works best if you can combine telling the truth with kindness.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)
You have a very specific idea of how you want to appear to others today, but it may be tough to carry out your plan if your true feelings get in the way. You might think that taking a stand to establish your boundaries is important, but direct confrontation won’t bring you the happiness you seek. Instead of working with a fixed agenda now, be as flexible as possible. Allowing for the element of surprise can turn a tense situation into a real thrill ride.
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You thought you knew what you were doing, but your plans may come back up for reconsideration today. You realize that your old road has ended, but the new one isn’t as easy to find as you expected. The next phase of your life could take you in an entirely new direction, but it’s harder to make big decisions now because so much is up in the air. Don’t focus on the uncertainty; take definitive action, even if you think that you might change your mind again tomorrow.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You might try to keep your feelings to yourself as the Moon returns to cool Virgo today, but you won’t likely be able to prevent an emotional eruption. You have run out of patience and may think that you have to do something immediately or you’ll lose your chance. Just remember that initiating action is easy now, but you won’t be able to just hit the undo button tomorrow.
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)
Your diplomatic skills are being tested and you may not be as sweet and nice as others expect. The Sun is in your gracious sign, yet its opposition to shocking Uranus today and its square to dark Pluto midweek releases buried emotions as they erupt to the surface. You’re uncharacteristically willing to take a big risk now. Still, it’s a smart idea to avoid confrontation and see where the energy goes before making any drastic moves.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
The practical Virgo Moon is in your 11th House of Dreams and Wishes, yet you’re inadvertently flirting with emotional explosives as revolutionary Uranus urges you to throw caution to the wind. Areas of your life that once felt safe and secure are now feeling chaotic and vulnerable. Fortunately, you have an inspirational message that could have a positive effect on others. Choose your words carefully and stay strong in your convictions.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
The picky Virgo Moon’s presence in your 10th House of Career may require you to work extra hard today, but shifty Uranus suggests that your day won’t turn out as you expect. A surprising event can be a powerful catalyst that initiates a chain reaction, releasing suppressed emotions. But this isn’t necessarily your battle to fight. Setting clear boundaries helps you move through this complicated time with confidence and grace.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
You’re tempted to rebel at home as unruly Uranus opposes the Sun from your 4th House of Domestic Conditions. Fortunately, the earthy Virgo Moon helps you to suppress some of the craziness and encourages you to maintain the status quo. However, a simple twist of fate can suddenly lead you in an entirely new direction and have you singing a whole new song.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
The willful Sun illuminates your key planet Uranus today, demonstrating how comfortable you are with radical change. Still, you don’t need to let every single person know how you feel. Nevertheless, don’t wait for external encouragement before sharing your ideas with someone you trust. Being extra perceptive enables you to manage this rather chaotic day with a healthy perspective and a good sense of humor.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Someone may push you too far today, but you could be the one who ends up in trouble if you respond with equal intensity. Although you might think that you can take on anyone now, especially if you’re feeling self-righteous, caution is advised. Unfortunately, you can have the best of intentions while still overstepping boundaries. Respect other people’s limits or you’ll just waste a lot of time and energy pleading your case in vain.
