Our frustration may prompt us to impulsively jump into an argument today as communicator Mercury creates a troublesome alignment with warrior Mars. Even if we say exactly what’s on our minds, we still could be left with a feeling of not being heard. Expressing our emotions is complicated now that the Moon is visiting stoic Capricorn, and her conjunction with suspicious Pluto certainly adds an uncomfortable edge to an intense interaction.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

If your life has recently taken a serious turn, adopting a sensible approach to your current responsibilities helps you make the most of this challenging day. Don’t try to sidestep any emotional intensity now because your feelings can teach you something useful about yourself. The more you’re able to concentrate on what you need today, the more effective you are in overcoming your own resistance to change. Demonstrating your willingness to face the issues inspires others to do the same

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You are truly a force to be reckoned with because you can accomplish nearly anything you set your mind on today. But making choices is still a bit overwhelming because you’re aware of the significance of your current decisions. You can breathe a bit easier if you simply remember that the most practical course of action is now the most intelligent one. It’s not wise to take any foolish risks; patience works in your favor. One small step at a time will lead you to a promising future.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may seem somewhat contentious to those around you today, but you’re truly not looking to create any additional conflict. It’s just that you might not take the time to think about the impact of your words now. You know you’re telling the truth, so you believe it’s unnecessary to stop and consider that you could be stirring up a hornet’s nest. Remember, everyone doesn’t need to know everything that you do. A little compassionate discretion will go a long way to keep the peace.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You could be impressed by a coworker’s level of commitment today, even if your plan is completely different. But if you enter into a debate with those who oppose your ideas now, your frustration builds and can eventually outweigh any admiration you might have had. You would be wise to keep an open mind while discussing the merits of the various alternatives on the table. Nevertheless, it’s never advisable to negotiate away your core values.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Don’t be surprised if you are the brunt of someone’s anger because you’re not the easiest person in the world to get along with today. You may even engage in a public confrontation with a coworker now, which creates additional problems. Although an argument causes unwanted stress, others will respect you for standing up for yourself as long as you don’t take it too far. Paying attention to the cues of those around you could help you dissipate the tension before it reaches a boiling point.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Sometimes it’s nearly impossible to sort through all the details. However, you are the one who seems to be able to put enough of the small pieces of a puzzle together today so you can see the big picture. People depend on your holistic thinking now, so there’s no reason to hold back when sharing your advice. Trust your intuition but don’t lose sight of your common sense; your moral compass will lead you in the right direction.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have something important on your mind today, but it’s not that simple to share it with your peers. Every time you approach the topic, others appear to grow uncomfortable and change the subject. However, you can see things that are not apparent to anyone else and you’re not willing to pretend that you know less than you do. Remember, if you’re going to be the one who sounds the alarm, at least do it with kindness and without blame. Choose your words carefully so you don’t alienate your audience.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your closest friends may attempt to avoid you for a while today because they can tell you have something on your mind that they aren’t ready to hear. Meanwhile, the Moon’s conjunction with powerful Pluto bolsters your emotional intensity and emboldens your courage. Just remember that your words might be more searing than you realize if you let them pass your lips uncensored. A little self-restraint makes a lot of difference in the successful delivery of your message. A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You’re so passionate about your beliefs today that you temporarily forget about the facts. However, others won’t let you get away with sloppy thinking now and they continue to confront you with the truth. Rather than becoming overly defensive and taking a stand based on self-righteousness, make every attempt to listen to what is actually being said. This is not about you — or anyone else — being right or wrong; it’s about keeping an open mind and finding clarity on a subject. Sometimes it takes a village to get it right.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You want to make sure that everyone knows exactly where you stand on a controversial issue today as the evocative Moon connects with ruthless Pluto in your 1st House of Personality. You’re ready to express your passionate perspective every chance you get. But a volcano derives its strength from the intense heat that is simmering beneath the surface. Likewise, you have a chance to increase your power by choosing what to say on your own terms. Carefully controlling your message gives you the chance to create the impact you desire.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

People may stir up trouble today by accusing you of something you didn’t do. You might feel personally attacked or even betrayed by someone you once trusted. Unfortunately, it’s probably too late now to return to the way things were. Even if your pride is hurt, think twice before retaliating because your unrestrained anger could escalate a minor problem into a major conflict. Step back and count to ten before you say something you’ll quickly regret. Take the high road and see who follows.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might not have the ability to accomplish your long-term goals on your own, but you have access to all the tools you need once you recognize that the resources are within your network of friends and associates. Keep in mind that no one person is the center of authority now, so you could lose control as soon as you attempt to consolidate it. Remember, cooperation is much more effective than any attempts at global domination. Your success is all but assured when you realize that you are part of a greater whole and act accordingly.
