The holidays are here again — time to think up some fun gift ideas for your friends and family members. Try consulting the zodiac this year! Considering the astrological signs of those on your gift list is a great way to get your gift-giving spirit in gear.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Active Aries is always looking for ways to stay in shape, even during the winter months, so athletic equipment is usually a good choice. People born under this zodiac sign are also fond of the color red, so a cranberry scarf or a scarlet hat could win their favor. If romance is in the air, let Aries know that you put his or her needs first. Buy tickets for two to a sporting event you loathe, or make a playlist of an artist you can’t stand to win big points with your favorite Ram.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Taurus appreciates any gift that appeals to his or her sensual side. A box of gourmet chocolates, a richly colored tapestry, or a soft cashmere blanket are all great options for Bulls. This sign also enjoys having money to play with, so a gift certificate to their favorite store is a welcome option. Always remember that quality is more important than quantity — Taurus would rather have a small bottle of expensive cologne than a carafe of the cheap stuff.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Quick-witted Gemini enjoys gifts that appeal to their sizable intellects. An engaging book is always welcome, as is a magazine subscription. This sign rules the hands, so some scented hand lotion or a sparkling ring might delight. Geminis also love to entertain, so a set of glassware might fit the bill. If you want to splurge on a special Twin, give them the latest cell phone or i-device, so they can keep in touch with their gazillion friends.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Sentimental Cancer loves gifts that have personal meaning. Handmade items always delight, whether it’s a finger painting, angora sweater, or mincemeat pie. This sign also has a special affinity for silver — a monogrammed hand mirror or picture frame would be very well received. Since Crabs have an affinity for liquids of all kinds, a special bottle of wine, a fancy cappuccino maker, or a shiny tea kettle are also good possibilities. And don’t forget that these Moon children love the domestic arts — a cookbook specializing in comfort food is another sure winner.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Lions love gifts that make them look and feel terrific. Hair accessories, cosmetics and grooming items are all good choices for this image-conscious sign. Leos love drama, and enjoy presents that involve a bit of flair. Opera tickets, gold jewelry or animal print lingerie are right up this cat’s alley. Leos also love to gamble, so a sheaf of lottery tickets or a weekend getaway to the casino could make them purr with delight. When shopping for clothing, remember that Lions have a special affinity for red, gold and purple.
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
Virgins love practical gifts … so avoid dust-catching baubles. A bread-making machine or a power drill would be welcome, but these folks are also known to pride themselves on their impeccable appearance. Scented soaps, lotions and shampoos made by an earth-friendly company might be just the ticket. Virgos are also incredibly organized and might appreciate a good watch or a leather-bound date book. Or try a health-conscious basket of organic foodstuffs.
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
Libras have a special affinity for music, and always appreciate a good new artist to add to their voluminous collection. If you want to do something really special for a Libra friend, splurge on a two concert tickets — this zodiac sign hates to do anything alone. Born beneath the sign of the Scales, they also need plenty of balance in their lives, so a pair of candlesticks or bookends might appeal. If you’re still stumped for ideas, have a lavish bouquet of red roses delivered accompanied by a loving handwritten note.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Scorpios are secretive by nature and enjoy gifts that obscure their appearance in some way. A pair of designer sunglasses, a filmy scarf or a slouchy hat are all great choices for this sign. These mystery-lovers also enjoy moody, atmospheric stories. A collection of film noirs on DVD are sure to go over well with your favorite Scorpion. The rumors concerning this sign’s sexual appetite are happily true, so seductive lingerie would get plenty of use. Since Scorpios also like to get beneath the surface; a gift certificate for a deep-cleansing facial will be appreciated.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
As far as Archers are concerned, half the fun of getting gifts is ripping them open! If Sag doesn’t like a present, though, he or she will tell you outright. Avoid awkward scenes this holiday season by giving this outdoor enthusiast some camping equipment. Hiking boots or a waterproof parka would also be appropriate. These animal lovers adore any gift associated with their pets. A calendar filled with pictures of dogs or horses is sure to elicit a big smile. Finally, you can always feed this sign’s wanderlust with a comprehensive atlas.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Career-oriented Capricorn always enjoys gifts that will boost their job status. A leather laptop carrier or monogrammed briefcase would be welcome. Contrary to popular belief, though, Goats aren’t all work and no play. This sign is blessed with a wicked sense of humor, so try the “The Office” or “Parks and Recreation” series on DVD. Capricorns also love luxurious presents they’d never buy for themselves, like a silk bathrobe.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You never know what this unpredictable zodiac sign will be doing from moment to moment — one week it’s skydiving and the next it’s yoga! Still, this quirky sign always appreciates technological gadgets, whether it’s the latest i-device or gaming system. If you’d like to choose something a little more personal, why not make a photo album detailing all of your exploits with your favorite Aquarius? Aquarius may not show it, but they harbor a special fondness for their friends. Still stumped for ideas? A basket filled with brand new socks is both weird and practical enough for this sign, which rules the ankles.
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
These mystics love gifts of all kinds, but especially ones that help them escape the harsh realities of life. A bottle of champagne, a kaleidoscope, or a book of fairy tales will appeal to your Fishy friends. And because Pisces is a Water sign, it’s a good bet they’ll appreciate bath salts, foaming cleansers and shower gels. If you’d like to give something really special, a digital camera will make a big hit with this natural-born photographer. Looking for a romantic gift? Choose a gilt-edged volume of love poetry.
This is a good day for focusing on activities that promote emotional renewal, dear Aries. You can gain a better perspective on your financial picture as well as your relationships today with Venus and Pluto vibing and the intuitive Moon picking up this energy as well. Look to the talents and resources of others or a partner to see if these can benefit a business. Think strategically and draw on your imagination and past experience/wisdom to your plans and to better understand your connections. You benefit the most today through observation rather than direct action. You should also find ways to soothe nerves. Today and the next few are strong for healing relationship rifts.
Taurus
Taurus
Venus is your ruler, and when it connects well with your partnership ruler, Pluto, you tend to find yourself connecting well with others or reaching a pleasant agreement of sorts, dear Taurus. Today’s Venus-Pluto connection occurs in the morning, but the Moon picks up and carries these energies later on, and you may very well enjoy some special interactions and insights now. Venus happens to be in your partnership sector as well, further boosting possibilities of enhancing or attracting relationships. You’re also coming across with more confidence and personal power. The general vibe is friendly but not frivolous, and this becomes you well. If you want to express your commitment or passion, now is a good time to do so.
Gemini
Gemini
There may be a project that you find especially absorbing and compelling today, dear Gemini, and you are likely interested in exploring things further. Today and this week are strong for investigation, getting to the heart of a matter, and discovering important truths. Research efforts can bring good results, and even if you don’t get somewhere, you enjoy the process. Doing some sleuthing is appealing now. This can also be a good time for looking into a health or fitness matter, for enjoying the process of getting healthier, and possibly finding a way to monetize a favorite activity. You’re likely expected to be on top of things today, and your quiet confidence goes a long way towards gaining respect or recognition.
Cancer
Cancer
This is a strong day for enhancing or attracting a partnership or close relationship, dear Cancer, particularly an affair of the heart. A connection made or a moment shared can be significant and meaningful now. For some, this is about a project or creative work that you love, and you’re ready to pour your heart into it. A relationship or project can fill you with a stronger sense of purpose. You might consider ways to improve or get ahead. There is good intuitive sense today, and your powers of attraction are stronger than usual. There can be a desire to share a belief, dream, or tradition with someone you care about.
Leo
Leo
This is a good day for looking at yourself and your needs or desires honestly, dear Leo, and benefiting from what you discover. You might thoroughly enjoy and throw yourself into a work, health, or home project now, as the motivation is there to do so. Your personal security and comfort with yourself can attract others to you now. There is more intensity in your interactions and/or your love and feeling nature today, such that you may skip over small talk and get to the meat of a matter. This can be a good time to recognize emotional blocks and finding ways to move past them. The Moon in your solar eighth house all day encourages observation and strategy. You benefit most from attracting things to you rather than chasing them just for now.
Virgo
Virgo
Conversations are especially rich and possibly even moving today, dear Virgo, and you may be able to bring a relationship or project to a new level now. You might come up with a good strategy for handling your money, or possibly even for converting a just-for-fun hobby into a money-making business. Others are truly listening to what you have to say now, and your powers of persuasion are at a high. Even so, a good idea you come up with now might better be kept to yourself just for the time being. Sharing an overview with a significant other can be fun, however. Passions and interests don’t always need to be shared, but respecting them is important in any relationship.
Libra
Libra
You’re likely to enjoy warm and supportive interactions today that boost your basic levels of confidence, comfort, and security, dear Libra. Your ability to strategize, and even to hold your tongue, brings the most rewards now with the ruler of your sign, Venus, in beneficial aspect to Pluto. You can inspire trust now, and possibly even awe. Your strength of character is recognized by others and earns you more respect. Whether you’re clearing out your desk, your closet, or your brain, it’s a good time to get rid of what you don’t absolutely need. Progress and self-improvement are in focus. You can make some important changes in your image today, and with money, talents, and resources.
Scorpio
Scorpio
You’re on a roll today, with energy to spare, dear Scorpio. This can be a wonderful day for attracting positive people and energy into your life.

It’s a great time for attracting or building/healing a relationship, and also for building upon and improving a pet project. You are persuasive and personally powerful.

You are seeing what you truly need and ready to put your heart into whatever moves you.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Relationships with friends are supportive and pleasing today, dear Sagittarius. You might enjoy keeping a secret today as you hold on to something that makes you feel special and you are not quite ready to share it. This is your prerogative, and it may in fact be a good idea to keep things on the down low for now. There is a compelling quality to feelings of love now. Emotional longings can be in strong focus, but more easily understood. There is also good energy for recycling or repurposing resources such that they’re transformed. Your money sense is good now.
Capricorn
Capricorn
You’re in a most expansive and expressive mood today, dear Capricorn. The desire to explore and learn is strong, and any activity that ties you to a desk, that seems stifling or limiting, or that feels lifeless and dull will have you itching to escape. Your powers of magnetic attraction are good right now, and you’ll find it rather easy to maneuver things the way you’d like them to be. Offering your expertise to colleagues can open up great rewards for you these days. You stand to gain the respect and appreciation of others, and self-respect as well. It certainly feels good to contribute and share.
Aquarius

Others are putting their faith in you as someone who is discreet and professional – someone who can keep a secret if necessary, and who doesn’t need to take credit for everything. There is good money sense with you today, as you’re seeing things for their value and priority.
Pisces
Pisces
Conversations today tend to be intense but pleasant, dear Pisces, and you could be quite impassioned about an idea or a project. Some of you could feel more confident as a result of your involvement in a team, or for contributions you make to a cause or group effort. You might enjoy new opportunities to prove yourself and your effectiveness. Strong creative and/or romantic energies flow today, and you could find yourself attracted to a new idea or person, or interested in repurposing and rejuvenating a current project or relationship.
With the Moon’s move to the top of your solar chart early into the day, dear Aries, your attention turns to your responsibilities, image, and larger life goals. However, you’re not feeling the typical pressure in this respect, and instead you tend to feel connected and relatively content about your general direction right now. There is compassion and patience in your approach to others today. One-to-one interactions can thrive. Conversations can be lively and stimulating, as well as refreshingly open. You can quite successfully draw on past experience, wisdom, and intuition in order to further your goals.
Taurus

There can be a chance to learn from past mistakes or to put a problem behind you.
Gemini
Gemini
The day favors contemplation and observation, dear Gemini, and you might choose to lay low in some way or pull yourself out of regular activities in order to connect with your deeper needs and desires. You could be involved in some level of research now, or you may be throwing yourself into something that requires more deep thought or concentration, and thoroughly enjoying every minute of it! While you are inclined to be a little introspective, the day is nevertheless good for communication. Whether you’re looking within for answers or if others are offering their perspectives, it’s a strong time for seeing something more clearly or for finding resolutions to the more complex problems in your life.
Cancer
Cancer
This can be a good day for some validation from people in your life, dear Cancer, and for finding ways to gain a stronger feeling of balance. Socially, this can be a strong day. Your own natural gentleness draws others to you, and you could find that people are naturally opening up to you, or that conversations naturally flow in a productive, healing, healthy direction. It’s a good time to talk through difficulties without having to force issues, and for repairing relationships if needed – or simply improving a bond. Another person’s perspective, even if it diverges from yours significantly, tends to enhance your own.
Leo
Leo
Good energy is with you today for work and health pursuits, dear Leo, as well as conversations about and with family. It’s rather easy now to put two and two together when it comes to recent family and work events. You might find research and analysis quite absorbing and successful. The desire to improve basic habits and daily routines is with you, minus the pressure that is often behind this, and leading to happier productivity. Open communication with a relative or intimate partner can help center you and relieve your mind regarding some of your troubles or concerns, especially related to health and work.
Virgo
Virgo
This is a strong day for exploring creative avenues of expression, dear Virgo, for expressing your feelings and affections, and for finding good outlets for enjoying yourself, perhaps related to hobbies or creative works. There can be especially open, healthy, and supportive conversations in/about your meaningful relationships. If you need to patch up differences, particularly with a lover, partner, or child, this is a good time to do so – not necessarily in a confrontational way, but simply through gentle conversation and gestures of reaching out. Look for ways to relieve recent stress now, and pay close attention to news and conversations that might point you in the right direction towards healing.
Libra
Libra
This can be a good day for taking a break from a quick pace in your life, dear Libra, and for attention to home, family, and matters of comfort and security. It can be quite healing to unwind or simply take a break from mental busy-ness now by concentrating on self-nurture, comforting or familiar activities, and attending to root matters or your home or base of operations. There can be satisfying conversations that focus on solutions or wisdom rather than only venting or gossip, which can be soothing. You have a tendency to want to get at the heart of an issue rather than skim its surface now.
Scorpio
Scorpio
The more likable, charming qualities of your personality are subtly enhanced today, dear Scorpio, although this is generally true of most of Venus’ transit of your sign already underway (from December 4-30). Today, your charm tends to especially shine through your communications and gestures. Especially attractive, and also very soothing, is your current ability to express contentment in the moment, patience, and optimism. You might share a cherished belief, or arrive at a new one, through your conversations with others or your own musings. There can be relief about sharing a particular topic now, or you could be a go-between helping others to come to a compromise or state of peace.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
With the Moon moving out of your sign where it’s spent the last few days, dear Sagittarius, you’re likely to feel increasingly more content and happy to build upon what you have rather than urgently seek out a connection to the world. You are seeing and enjoying your connections now, and especially drawn to the pleasures and comforts of the physical world. There is good energy for bringing out matters into the open with someone you trust, however, so don’t miss that opportunity. You’re more likely to seek out and find the resources to solve recent dilemmas and problems now, particularly as your patience is improved.
Capricorn
Capricorn
The Moon moves into your sign very early into the day, dear Capricorn, adding more color to your emotional world. Your feelings and emotional needs tend to surface now, and this can seem sudden and slightly overwhelming if they involve buried emotions. However, you could find it rather easy and natural to find channels for expressing your feelings today, and in fact you could enjoy a wonderful sense of relief to talk about certain issues that have been on your mind. If you need to repair relationships with relatives or friends, this can be a good time to do so. Your own good humor and wisdom can be an important resource today.
Aquarius
Aquarius
The Moon moves into your privacy sector this morning, dear Aquarius, signalling a time for behind the scenes activities, extra rest, and reprieve from recent demands or competitive situations. It’s an ideal couple of days to take extra time for yourself, look within for answers, and tap into your dreams, inner world, and intuition. With increasing activity in this sector of your chart in the coming weeks, you’re in a great position to better understand yourself and to connect with your spiritual needs and wishes. Today, there can also be new insight into business and financial matters, and conversations can be healing.
Pisces
Pisces
If you need to unwind after busy days, dear Pisces, you’re in a good position to do so now. The Moon moves into your pressure-free solar eleventh house shortly into the day, and your focus tends to shift away from responsibilities and towards those things, ideas, and people who make you feel good or that you belong. Easy energy is with you for socializing and for experiencing new situations. An appreciation for things that are ever so slightly exotic is stimulated today. Compassion and acceptance are in large supply today. Romantic feelings are abundant, and your powers of attraction are in good form.

This is a personally busy time of year, when you may be feeling especially enthusiastic and when others take note of you. The focus now may be on how you’re presenting yourself and how this affects your life, and on changing personal habits. The weeks ahead are for being brave and enjoying new experiences, particularly socially and creatively.
Capricorn
Capricorn
The New Moon that occurs today can stimulate you to take charge of a past or spiritual matter, dear Capricorn. This is a strong time for putting something behind you that no longer serves you well (or perhaps never did). There can be a few unknowns at this point, but it’s important to surrender yourself to this idea rather than attempt to micromanage your life, and in the process, to build your faith in yourself and the world. Some kind of soul-searching is in order, and the urge to find emotional peace of mind will be apparent now and in the coming weeks. There can be an increased need to help or support others, for behind the scenes or private activities, for making personal sacrifices, and for emotional renewal in general. Allow yourself to dream of something better, but don’t fall into the trap of deferring your happiness to a later date when you might achieve a goal.
Aquarius
Aquarius
With this morning’s New Moon, dear Aquarius, you’re moving in a new direction, and it’s more about your social life and happiness than it has been about your position, status, and professional life. This lunation puts a spotlight on friendships, group connections, networking, long-term dreams and hopes, ideals, communications, and learning. There can be a new beginning or new/revised initiatives now, and making contact or teaming up can be in strong focus. You are discovering things that truly make you happy, and things that have you feeling included and involved. If you’ve been unhappy with particular friends or group associations, or find yourself lacking in this area of life, the coming weeks are the time to take charge and make changes. It’s also a powerful time for new dreams and initiatives – the seeds of new projects or long-term goals may be planted now.
Pisces
Pisces
The New Moon that occurs this morning energizes the top of your solar chart, dear Pisces, and points you in the direction of structuring your life in important ways. This lunation clears the path for new beginnings on professional fronts, and gives you the confidence and motivation to take charge of issues surrounding career and life path goals, reputation, public image, and social standing. You may be developing new or improved business goals and plans, or focusing on the bigger picture of your life and considering ways to better organize your life in order to achieve what you want to achieve. The desire to handle and manage your responsibilities can be strong now. Focus on improving the elements of your personality that you are projecting to society and as a professional, and formulate goals for self-mastery and self-discipline – this is an excellent time for taking charge of your life direction.
Thursday (Jupiter): Expansion, money, prosperity, and generosity.

You may be wrapping up an important project or making a decision about your next step. Mercury, the planet of communication, enters your career and reputation sector today and will continue to influence this area of your life until January 1st. Your thoughts frequently turn to professional matters, plans, and goals during this cycle. You are also more careful and perhaps guarded in your communications, as you feel especially accountable for what you say and how you say it – and you are! You may be speaking as an authority on a matter or be asked for advice and guidance more frequently now. It’s a generally strong time for sorting out, researching, and gathering information about and for career projects or business endeavors.

You might get final word on, or a missing puzzle piece of information about, a financial, work, or intimate matter today, dear Taurus, which can help you put something behind you. Mercury moves into harmony with your sign today, and will continue this transit until January 1st.

Gemini

This is a strong day for learning something significant about a partner or partnership, dear Gemini. There could be a final conclusion or answer on a relationship or creative matter.

Others have much to say and/or teach you during this period, and these people can include counselors and partners. You might often bounce ideas off others in order to more effectively get your own reasoning powers working more vigorously. You seek out others and they seek you. Intellectual companionship is emphasized now, and you can do important thinking about your relationships.
Leo
Leo
The energies of early morning can point to some questioning of a relationship or creative project, dear Leo. However, as the day progresses, you’re likely to come to a strong conclusion about either of these things and to feel very comfortable about your decision. Today, Mercury moves into your health and work sector, and with the planet of communication here, there is likely to be a big emphasis on tending to your daily routines, work, and health programs while Mercury transits here until January 1st. This is a strong time for sorting, organizing, and analyzing these things. It’s a busy period when you’re more likely to focus on the little things that make up the whole. You are good at making lists and following them now, but do avoid nitpicking over tiny flaws.
Virgo
Virgo
The energies of early today can have you questioning a current endeavor, dear Virgo, but as the day advances, the picture becomes clearer, and you can gain important new insight into a family or financial matter. Your ruler and the planet of communication, Mercury, enters your playful, creative solar fifth house today, and will continue to transit this sector until January 1st, taking you into the New Year. This places Mercury in harmony with your sign, so that in a general sense you are in your element, particularly when it comes to communications, transportation, learning, speaking, teaching, and making connections. There is a little more ease and pleasure in your social life, and perhaps more creativity in the work you’re doing at this time. You’re interested in talking about creative and romantic matters. Thoughts turn to romance, children, and entertainment. You express yourself with a fun, entertaining touch or flair that draws others to you. Presenting your ideas during this cycle is likely to be especially fruitful.
Libra
Libra
This can be an important day of epiphanies, dear Libra, particularly about matters revolving around communications, studies, transportation, and acquaintances. Issues about trust in a relationship can also emerge now. Watch for quick decisions, but feel the inspiration, as what is coming to you now may be worth a lot. Mercury enters your home and family sector today, and will continue to influence this part of your solar chart until January 1st.

There might be a lot of activity on the home front or with family – perhaps more conversations and interactions, or frequent visitors.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Today is strong for inspiration and intuition, dear Scorpio, particularly on business or financial lines, although you’re also in a great position to have an epiphany about a relationship matter. Intelligent, curious Mercury enters your communications sector today, and this serves to sharpen and enhance your ability to process information quickly and effectively over the coming weeks (this transit lasts until January 1st). This can be a mentally busy time, when you’re especially curious and observant, and often juggling a number of different ideas and tasks at once. There can be special news, new mental interests or studies, and ideas about projects. The pace of your life can pick up speed now, although this will be more pronounced once the Sun also enters this same sector of your solar chart from the 22nd. The Moon continues to move through your sign until late afternoon, and your emotional needs are up front and center, after which you see the benefits of taking your time.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
This is a great day for coming to an important conclusion, dear Sagittarius, and for sharing ideas and news with a friend or partner. There can be a revelation of sorts, and possibly a proclamation now. Someone quite possibly can come through for you today, and teamwork can be prosperous. There can be creative vision and inspiration now. Mercury enters your resources and values sector today and will transit this house of your solar chart until January 1st. This is an excellent cycle for analyzing your finances and possessions, including spending and saving habits. You might feel overloaded, at times, with number work, or worried about money, but it’s a great time for getting advice, or simply sorting out your finances. You are also more inclined to talk about what you value, material matters aside. Today, the Moon enters your sign late afternoon, and this can be felt as an emotional awakening of sorts.
Capricorn
Capricorn
There can be breakthrough thinking today, dear Capricorn, particularly related to career and projects that belong in the past. It can also be a strong time for becoming aware of what you want to bring forward with you going forward. The busy, curious planet of communication, Mercury, enters your sign later today, and will continue to transit Capricorn until January 1st. You are considerably more talkative, communicative, and alert during this cycle. It can also be a strong time for work and new initiatives with your health. You tend to be a tad restless with this energy in your life, and this pushes you to circulate, move about, and interact. You’re also inclined to make executive decisions at this time. The Moon moves into your privacy sector tonight, where it will stay until early Saturday, and you’re naturally in a withdrawn, meditative phase.
Aquarius
Aquarius
You can gain some wonderful insights into a friendship or long-term goal today, dear Aquarius, and you’ll find it quite natural to team up with someone and for others to be especially cooperative now. There can be a good sense that working with others or sharing ideas with someone can be productive and rewarding. Tonight, Mercury moves into your privacy sector, and this will stay with you into the New Year, until January 1st, when Mercury enters your sign. While the world is demanding your attention in many ways, this cycle suggests a need for some introspection and a need to reassess certain projects and goals in your life. Your decision-making and thought processes tend to be more intuitive, inward, and solitary now. You might also be somewhat hesitant about making decisions as you take more time to absorb and digest information before coming to conclusions. Flow with this, as it’s part of a natural cycle when you can do some important thinking.
Pisces
Pisces
Honor uniqueness and freedom of spirit today, dear Pisces. It’s a strong day for cooperation, but also for insight into business affairs. The planet of communication, Mercury, enters a very sociable, group-focused area of your chart today, and will move through that sector until January 1st. During this cycle, you’ll thrive on the exchange of ideas with friends – the more humanitarian, unbiased, unconventional, and future-oriented the better! You seek out others who stimulate your mind, and others tend to be drawn to you for the same reasons. It’s a good time for taking part in group activities, or simply spending more time with like-minded individuals. You may even meet a love interest through these activities. A love relationship can be enhanced by your willingness to communicate and grant personal freedom.
A Sun-Uranus trine today stimulates wonderful forward-looking energy, dear Aries. You are likely to want to put something behind you and to look to new horizons now, and your attitude is optimistic. A strong urge to rid yourself of restrictions, particularly in the mind or in your attitude, can motivate you to take charge. You may be excited about new projects or interests or old ones that you are ready to push forward. Look for opportunities to publish, promote, travel, share, and learn. You can be happy to put an old method behind you and embrace a more open or authentic way to express yourself. There can be a desire to enjoy an entirely new adventure of sorts, whether this is in the mind or physical.
Taurus
Taurus
You might enjoy a desire to put a problem behind you today, dear Taurus, related to a relationship or your own emotional state. Embracing change comes more easily to you today than it does on most other days as you are able to detach yourself from some elements of the past. There is readiness when it comes to approaching typically tricky or deeper emotional issues, if only to move past them. There can be a bonus received now, either material or emotional, that seems to come up out of the blue. If you’re in need of a regeneration of sorts, including kicking a bad habit, this is a good time to do so. A pleasing connection can be made today. You can experience a strong emotional need to do something spontaneous or taboo – to break through barriers. Behind the scenes efforts are favored now.
Gemini
Gemini
The day brings good energy for connecting with others, dear Gemini, whether it’s a one-on-one situation or a friendship that develops from a friend of a friend or group connection. It’s an excellent time for being around people, networking, pairing up, and following through on recent connections. You are a little more spontaneous than usual, and people around you seem to be open to change and progress as well. Putting your head together with someone, you might come up with a great idea or opportunity that may not occur to you on a regular day. It’s also a good day to socialize and fraternize, join a group or attend a meeting, and otherwise make connections. You may open your eyes to someone who appears more friendly, or someone could see you in a new, more positive light. You’re also less anxious about social situations today.
Cancer
Cancer
This is another strong day when your ruler, the Moon, forms supportive aspects and you feel freer to be yourself, dear Cancer. Romantic and creative activities are favored. Also today, a Sun-Uranus aspect encourages a healthy desire to improve and make changes, particularly in practical areas. You can come to a new understanding about certain career, health, or financial matters today, or an overview of sorts as to where you are headed or want to head. Goals seem realizable. The desire is to move past problem areas or situations that truly hold you back from realizing your potential. New insights can be experienced now, and should not be ignored. A money-making idea may very well be golden. You might come across a new and innovative method for getting your work done or a way to update technology or methods of doing your business that free you to pursue other opportunities that require your attention. A sense of turning over a new leaf with a health or fitness goal can be with you today.
Leo
Leo
You can experience a desire to put something behind you or pull yourself out of a rut today, dear Leo, and this is especially so on romantic, recreational, and creative levels. This is a good time to break the routine in little or subtle ways – there is no need to force. Small personal triumphs are the goal now, and you might consider opportunities in areas of recreation, hobbies, higher education, travel, or publishing and promotion. You can find that others are agreeing with you or harmonizing in key ways, particularly a partner or significant other. You may be feeling more confident about pursuing a personal interest, creative endeavor, or even a relationship than you have been. There can be an opportunity to learn a new way of thinking through a connection or recreational activity (even an inspiring book or movie) or to inspire someone with your ideas and perspective.
Virgo
Virgo
The chance to put something behind you on an emotional level can emerge today, dear Virgo. This can be about a financial or home matter for some of you. This is a time for exploring ways to break out of a rut with family, in your home life, or in terms of your attitude towards how much you are in control of your own world. Allow yourself to enjoy your relationships with others by detaching yourself a little from your fears and insecurities, as good energy is with you for pushing beyond your usual limits and barriers, which are often self-imposed in the first place. There can be cooperation with someone close to you now. Some might enjoy good news on a financial level. This can also be a day when you or someone you love opens up about an intimate matter with nice, liberating results.
Libra
Libra
Circumstances are such that it’s clear a relationship needs a fresh approach today, dear Libra, or you begin to see your relationship needs in a brand new way now. You’re approaching life with more spirit and faith, particularly as you interact with others and in your communications. There can be unexpected assistance or kindness, and possibly pleasant surprises, from a neighbor or acquaintance, partner, or close friend. Communications are more open-minded and forward-looking than usual. It’s a good day for reaching out, checking in with others or extending simple gestures that show you care, and learning new things. A new mental interest or project could reach a nice turning point or you might refresh an old project. The attitude today is “out with the old and in with the new” particularly for you as this pertains to relationships, learning, transportation, and communications.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Today brings good energy for getting over things – living in the present and looking forward to the future, rather than dwelling on the past, dear Scorpio. It’s also strong for planning and formulating strategies. Your intuition is serving you well. New insights into your career path, money and resources, or a work project can emerge today that can truly push you forward. You are drawn to new ways or methods for improving your daily life, income, and health now. In fact, alternative healing methods can be a draw now, or you might discover new ideas about approaching your health that liberate you from methods that haven’t been working for you. You certainly need to break out of any ruts that have kept you from thriving. The Moon occupies your sign all day, bringing visibility and an open pipeline to your emotions. Once again, the Moon is finding easy outlets for expression, and you’re in a great position for personal appeal and creative insight.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
The Sun in your sign is forming a beneficial, supportive aspect to progressive Uranus today, dear Sagittarius, and this can stimulate some nice feelings of moving forward, particularly on creative levels. Others may be noticing you and appreciating your point of view, and they can be drawn to your optimism and ability to detach at appropriate times. You could be feeling freer to be yourself, to express your ideas or your affections, and even to put on a little show with your talents if it so pleases you. Your tastes may seem a little offbeat or different today, and you are also interested in new and different hobbies, pastimes, and recreational activities. It’s a great time to breathe new life into old projects and even relationships, or to pick up a new interest and pursue it with confidence. Don’t ignore the emotional opportunities of the day in the process: good energy is with you for connecting with family.
Capricorn
Capricorn
An important change occurs today, and while its benefits may not be clear to you just yet, dear Capricorn, you’re likely to feel rather brave and confident as you sense you’re moving past something. There is more openness to change in the family unit or within your own mind as you are willing to let go of an expectation or a burden that you may have put on yourself. Family matters can thrive with an open mind. You might consider ways to improve your living space. This can be a time for receiving or giving support and help, and it can be gratifying. The key theme of the day is some form of liberation. You need to feel the weight of burdens lift. Look for opportunities to pull yourself out of a rut or to free yourself of an energy-draining habit.
Aquarius
Aquarius
This can be a strong day for communications and relationships in general, dear Aquarius, as your ruler, Uranus, forms a strong, supportive aspect to the Sun, currently a guest in your solar sector of friends, groups, and long-term dreams and goals. You are likely to feel quite confident and optimistic, and possibly excited to share ideas and plans with others. Networking can be beneficial or enjoyable now. You’re in an especially open frame of mind about making changes. There may very well be a new avenue of communication that opens up with someone special today, and agreements might be made or easy interactions with others are featured. There could be good news or encouraging, inspiring conversations. Open the airways, communicate, and encourage others to do so as well.
Pisces
Pisces
You might enjoy a pleasant surprise now, dear Pisces, related to your work, long-term goals, and finances. Some of you could enjoy a bonus, raise, or some form of recognition for your efforts. Others might come up with a new idea related to business or money-making plans. This is a time when you’re feeling especially open to new ideas and opportunities, possibly acquiring a new item that improves your life, or discovering a method that improves your work or business. Your intuition is strong when it comes to new ideas to make improvements. It’s a good idea to present yourself professionally today, as people can be drawn to your ease with practical affairs and your open-handed, open-minded approach. This is also a fine day for learning and teaching, legal matters, and travel plans.
This winter, romance will enjoy a striking opportunity to balance the depths and heights of love. From December 30 to January 23, Venus will be in Sagittarius, offering a broader perspective on your romantic life. You’ll not only see the bigger picture, but you’ll also feel more openhearted and optimistic about love. Although romance might feel extra fuzzy on January 5 and the weight of a love relationship will become apparent on January 8, the good news is that you will definitely know where you and your sweetheart stand. Venus will make her annual conjunction to Saturn on January 8 ensuring this.
As for the depths? When Mars enters Scorpio from January 3 through March 5, you’ll see firsthand how far your lover is willing to go in order to keep you. The energy to own your lover may be strong now, so be sure you’re aware of this. Do what you can to avoid falling into the shadowy expression of Mars in Scorpio. If you find yourself feeling more jealous, insecure, and obsessive, take a step back.
Venus enters sobering Capricorn on January 23, where she’ll remain until February 16. Although matters of the heart will emphasize duty and responsibility, during this time you will also have the most romantically interesting weekend of the winter. Bookmark the weekend of February 5 through February 7 when Venus is conjunct Pluto, square Uranus, and sextile Mars. Make some magic happen!
Venus in Aquarius from February 16 through March 12 emphasizes how important it is to be friends with your lover. Expect good times between February 29 and March 2, when Venus is at a friendly angle to Saturn and Uranus. Mars enters Sagittarius on March 5, and you’ll feel ready to chase what’s on the other side of the fence. Before you jump too quickly, consider that the grass isn’t necessarily greener there. Don’t lose out on true love just because you need some adventure. You might regret it.
Aries Horoscope (March 21 – April 19)
If you’re partnered up this winter, you and your mate will spend time delving intimately into each other’s world both physically and emotionally. From January 3 through March 5, your ruler Mars will tour Scorpio and your 8th House of Shared Resources. You and your mate will feel extra motivated to explore one another’s darker side. You’ll also have an opportunity to courageously transcend any fears preventing you from truly baring your soul to the one you love.
A serious difference of opinion on January 8 may threaten the peace of mind you have in your relationship. Let the dust settle before making a rash decision based upon these divergent viewpoints.
If single, a Full Moon in your true love sector on January 23 might usher in an opportunity for romantic fulfillment. A friend might turn into a lover this winter as well. Pay attention to developments between you and a pal from February 16 through March 12. Chemistry will be palpable.
Taurus Horoscope (April 20 – May 20)
You and your partner might decide it’s time to kick things up a notch in your relationship this winter. From January 3 until March 5, you will feel the fire in a whole new way, but if you’re not careful, one or both of you might get burned!
Expect more passion but also more arguments. You might begin to fight over things like how to split the bills or what sexual position to enjoy. Feelings of jealousy and possessiveness may emerge, and if this happens you’ll want to do what you can to nip it in the bud.
February 10 will be a 5-star day for romance! If single, you might meet someone very special who has the ability to open you up to new perspectives. Romance will also be quite satisfying on February 22, thanks to a Full Moon in your true love sector. Your heart will be full.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – June 20)
Harmony between you and your mate will be extra special December 30 – January 23. Enjoy it while it lasts, because things might take a decided turn into more argumentative territory after March 5. At that point, it may become clear that the two of you have more issues to iron out connected to your future together than you previously anticipated.
This winter, the theme of those issues might begin to emerge from January 5 until January 25, while Mercury is retrograde in the area of your chart connected to intimacy and shared finances. Whatever the two of you disagree on will either become fuel for fiery arguments, or will be the impetus that motivates you to improve your relationship with more open communication.
If you ignore the work in your love life this winter, it’ll become extra difficult by spring. Don’t sweep anything under the rug.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – July 22)
Although you’ll begin the winter with extra sentiment, matters of the heart will quickly become steamy and sexual. Between January 3 and March 5, you’ll have the most extraordinary opportunity to enjoy sexual fulfillment with someone special. If you’ve been single for a while, this might suddenly become a stretch of time where opportunity knocks. Open the door!
If you’re partnered up, there’s a lot happening for you and your mate this winter. Communication might be extra tense between the two of you from January 5 to January 25. Fortunately, after January 23 and until February 16, you’ll have plenty of opportunity to enjoy loving vibes again. Be sure to spend time away with your mate the weekend of February 5, since sparks will fly.
Whatever you do this winter, don’t allow a sudden problem connected to your profession to get in the way of romance. Work problems can wait.
Leo Horoscope (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Romantic potential is off the charts for you this winter! From December 30 through January 23, love planet Venus will help you meet someone very special if single. If you’re attached, it’ll be a great time to enjoy all sorts of dating adventures with your lover. You might even feel the sparks of falling in love for the first time all over again.
If there is someone you recently started to date, you might decide to make a serious decision about this person near January 8. It’ll either be time to go exclusive, or to part ways. Or, it’s possible that you and your lover will have a bit of trouble in paradise.
A Full Moon in your sign on January 23 leaves you emotionally open. Then, a New Moon in your partnership sector on February 8 suggests a brilliant opportunity for you to move forward in a new direction with your mate. Once Mars enters your 5th House of Romance on March 5, you’ll focus more on pursuing all sorts of pleasure with your love. Yes!
Virgo Horoscope (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
You might feel extremely confused about romantic decisions from January 5 through January 25, while Mercury is traveling retrograde through your 5th House of True Love. It’s possible that during this time you and an ex will reconnect. Do your best to avoid making any final decisions until after Mercury regulates his orbit.
Venus entering the same area of your chart on January 23 is a bright spot filled with potential for love. Until February 16, dating prospects will shine and you’ll have a wonderful chance to meet someone new and fall in love. Or, if you’ve decided to give that old flame another run, it appears you’ll be quite happy during that stretch of time.
There will be an extra intense weekend for love February 5 through February 7. Don’t waste it! A Solar Eclipse in your partnership sector on March 8, followed by Venus entering the same part of your chart on March 12, suggests a very happy event if you’re married or in a committed relationship.
Libra Horoscope (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
Your love life might feel like a massive ball of confusion early this winter. From January 5 through January 25, Mercury will retrograde, but between the 5th and 8th, he’ll be in your romance sector. What that means is that your love life will “punk” you in some way…
You might think something amazing is about to get off the ground only to be sorely disappointed with excuses, delays, or circumstances that your sweetheart throws your way. Or, it’s possible that you’ll become way too distracted with a domestic situation until late January to even think about paying attention to your love life.
Fortunately, there are a couple of bright spots this winter. Venus will move through your true love sector from February 16 through March 12, offering you opportunity for passion during those long, dark winter nights. And pay attention to March 2 — an unexpected lucky break will come your way connected to matters of the heart.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
The heat is on this winter! With Mars in your sign from January 3 – March 5, you might be too hot to handle! Your sex drive will be strong, but you might decide to channel most of this energy into a communications-related project for most of the winter.
Still, pay attention to when opportunity knocks because when it does, it’ll do so loudly thanks to a Solar Eclipse in your true love sector on March 8. If single, this will usher in amazing potential for you to meet someone special and fall in love. If attached, you and your sweetheart might begin an exciting creative endeavor together, or consider having a baby.
Then on March 12, Venus enters the same part of your chart. This is amazing for everything connected to romance. You’ll have a heart wide open to give love.
Another day to watch is March 14, when Venus squares off with Mars. You might spend more money on your lover than you should. But don’t worry, there will be a happy fairytale ending for you this winter on March 20, when Venus and Neptune embrace. Love conquers all!
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You’ll begin this winter as the “fairest of them all” thanks to Venus moving through your sign from December 30 through January 23. While Venus is in Sagittarius, you’ll not only look and feel more beautiful, but this will translate into a vibe that others will find hard to resist. Confidence is an aphrodisiac and you’ll definitely have it going on!
You will have a moment of sobriety, however, when it comes to matters of the heart. On January 8, Venus and Saturn will bind together in your sign, helping you keep it real in love. You’ll know exactly where you stand with someone special, and if he or she is worth it, this relationship just might be able to stand the test of time.
If you’re single, pay attention to January 12. Venus and Uranus are at a brilliant angle to each other and sudden love is possible! And when Mars enters Sagittarius on March 5, nothing will stop you from going after what and who you want.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
A Full Moon in your partnership sector on December 25 might leave you dwelling on whether or not your mate is meeting your deepest security needs. If he or she is, all is well. If, however, you’re feeling less than nourished, it’ll be difficult to ignore. Unfortunately, you might not express what you feel in a way that serves relationship growth — at least not in early winter.
With Mercury turning retrograde on January 5 and being retrograde in your sign from January 8 through January 25, your words might come across in a way that’s easily misconstrued. Do your best to re-evaluate what it is you truly want to say to your partner in order to move forward rather than continuing to stumble backward.
If you can’t agree on a major decision, agree to disagree for now. Things between you and your mate are likely to escalate and explode the weekend of February 5 if you haven’t been able to move past whatever stormy weather you’re experiencing. If this happens, it’ll feel like a pressure cooker finally letting off steam.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
While Mercury is retrograde from January 5 through January 25, it might feel as if you’re walking backward in matters of the heart. Since Mercury rules your true love sector, communication might feel extra confusing in this area, too.
Add to this the fact that Mercury stations retrograde in your sign, and then days later moves back into your 12th House of Contemplation — you can begin to understand why your mind might appear to play tricks on you every time you attempt to make sense out of your love life. Make peace with the fact that during this time, it’s not supposed to make sense and that your job is to figure out why.
A Full Moon in your partnership sector on January 23 will bring to light exactly what makes you feel fulfilled in your relationship — as well as where you or your mate are starving for more attention.
Romance looks stellar from February 16 through March 12, when Venus tours your sign. You’ll feel more confident and will be able to magnetize others your way.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb. 19 – March 20)
A Full Moon in your true love sector on December 25 will leave no doubt as to what it is you really need from your lover. The question is: are you getting it? Domestic themes are likely to play a part in your ability to answer that question. In fact, it might seem as if you and your sweetheart are focused much more on matters of home and hearth this winter. From January 5 through 25, you might need to reassess living conditions or how much of a say your family has in your love life.
Expect love to be extra special on February 10, when Venus is at a gorgeous angle to expansive Jupiter, now in your relationship sector. A romantic dream might come true.
Partnership matters are even more fulfilling at the Full Moon on February 22. Then a Solar Eclipse in your sign on March 8 suggests a major fresh start, and since Venus enters Pisces on March 12, there are clear romantic themes connected to it.
This is a time when you notice all of the little things that are not working up to par, dear Aries, with the Moon moving into your solar sixth house this morning. You are suddenly more aware of the flaws and inconsistencies in your daily life. While this can lead to unnecessary worry or frustration, you can take advantage of this state of mind by actively working on fixing problems. Take the time to reorganize, tidy, and handle nagging problems that will help to free your mind for more interesting experiences. However, later today it can be a little difficult keeping centered. You can’t seem to escape the fact that life goes on no matter where your head is, and little tasks that you’ve neglected still need doing. A slight emotional low can make everyday tasks more difficult to perform. Do what you can to fix the root of productivity problems now by getting yourself into the spirit of things. Partnering up may be helpful now.
Taurus
Taurus
While there can be some excellent energy for smoothing over relations with a co-worker or someone in your daily life today, dear Taurus, energy is a little tense now. You are desiring a little positive feedback, validation, or admiration from the people around you, but they could be too self-absorbed or busy dealing with other issues to take that time. Avoid emotional displays and try to rise above it by not taking things too personally. Work on things that make you happy or get the less satisfying work you need to do out of the way so that you can make room for personal enjoyment. Keep in mind that your perceptions of others are a little fuzzy so that you don’t get in line for a disappointment. Seeing what you wish to see in a friend or lover can feel like a temporary fix to your mood, but the reality of the situation is likely to present itself in time. Aim to increase your powers of empathy and compassion in place of over-idealizing someone.
Gemini
Gemini
You may not be seeing a professional or reputation matter clearly today, dear Gemini, possibly because you are fantasizing about what you wish to happen and not paying attention to the reality of the matter. Watch for a solitary, moody, and self-protective attitude with others that effectively pushes them away. A conflict is possible revolving around partnerships and previously made agreements, and it can be difficult to find a compromise, or to see things clearly enough to reach a satisfying one if an agreement is arrived at. However, you have a true advantage, as you can easily dig deeper to the heart of a matter. You are not interested in quick fixes to problems, and your willingness and courage to start from the root and work your way up helps you to truly resolve a long-standing problem. Creative power is in fact very strong today.
Cancer
Cancer
Your ability to empathize is very much a gift, dear Cancer, and today, using that gift wisely will help you to overcome some of the tensions around you. You could have a strong sense that someone is trying to force their opinions or ideas on you, and this doesn’t sit well. Show your understanding, but don’t let others think you’re their doormat. Life seems to demand you turn your attention to many different matters today, and you can easily find that you’re distracted. Day-dreaming is one tendency that keeps you from your best performance, and worry about not doing your best is another. Restlessness can be the result, so it may be wise to shuffle your tasks so that you don’t feel stifled, or settle on something that’s a priority and put yourself in an environment that encourages focus and concentration.
Leo
Leo
The Moon leaves your sign this morning, dear Leo, and while this generally has the effect of steadying your emotions, today there can be some tension. A question of whether you have the extra funds for something could arise, or a difference in values with a love interest can crop up now. Regarding money matters, you may have some disappointments or worries as dependencies on others make you feel a little insecure, and there’s pressure to push forward a creative project or even a relationship. Previously trustworthy sources of support may let you down, and this requires you to take charge of the more stable sources of money in your life. Worries are fine up until the point that they motivate you to make important changes. Beyond that, they only serve to burden you and interfere with productivity and practicality. Take steps, even small ones, to get more control over your finances. Look for opportunities to collaborate with someone or to partner up on a communications project.
Virgo
Virgo
The focus now is on you – your needs, your personal projects, and the things that boost your spirits, dear Virgo. The desire for action is strong today. Conflicts with others or kinks in your plans can certainly occur now, but you can effectively extract from them just the right motivation to set things right. If you find that you are attracting confusing situations into your life, consider whether you have an unfulfilled need that craves something more than the mundane from your relationships with others and that draws you to people who seem to need help or who are not very consistent. Sometimes we want something so much that we think we see it in people, and our discriminating skills take a bit of a hit due to wishful thinking. Tend to matters on the home front that seem to need attention before they become bigger problems. This is a good day for motivation to sort out money matters or valuables.
Libra
Libra
It’s time to take a breather, in whatever way you can and that relaxes you the most, dear Libra. Avoiding situations that are highly competitive or stressful today is simply strategic and possibly necessary, not escapism. You need some time to regroup and recharge your emotional batteries. It can be difficult to avoid tension with the Moon in stressful aspect and approaching its Last Quarter that has everyone feeling a little edgy. However, it’s a good time to tie up loose ends. Try to clear up a few things in your environment that tend to distract you. Sorting out things in your physical environment can help clear your mind, and you definitely need the clarity. Venus and Juno are reaching an alignment in your sign, and this can turn your attention to equality and harmony in close relationships. Your personal appeal is boosted.
Scorpio
Scorpio
While there can be some tension today, dear Scorpio, you’re feeling less pressured by responsibilities. You can also discover something fascinating or new information on a situation that offers you more personal power and a sense of accomplishment. Even so, socially there can be some ups and downs. There may be deceptions or misunderstandings, and this can stem from a deeper yearning for a beautiful, wonderful connection to a friend or lover. The yearning itself is not negative. However, you might find that you sometimes project these desires onto friends, hoping to see something that you want to see, but that is not necessarily there. A friend can also be susceptible to the same type of thing – projecting their desires onto you. It can be an uncomfortable position for you, as you don’t want to burst anyone’s bubble, but you don’t want to pretend you’re something you’re not either.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Your career goals and life direction are coming into larger focus today, dear Sagittarius. A new attitude towards your career inspires you to make some changes. However, public and personal lives are both vying for your attention now, and you are required to do a balancing act. You’ll find that confusions surrounding your living conditions or family can spill out into other areas of life, including your personal plans. Building a solid foundation attacks problems from the root up. Avoid, if you can, situations that you know are frustrating, as your patience may be thin later today. It’s probably best to take the path of least resistance, or you could be prone to stress or even some minor mishaps. You might feel that others are unfairly criticizing you or examining what you have or haven’t done. However, friendships can bring in support and enjoyment. You are in a conciliatory mood with someone who’s proven themselves to you in the past.
Capricorn
Capricorn
You can be in the mood for something non-routine or a little adventurous today, dear Capricorn, although it can be a little difficult to find ways to satisfy your wanderlust just for now. Scheduling anything can feel restrictive to you right now, as today you thrive more in a state of freeform. As well, it might seem that when you do decide on what and when to do something, you discover you can’t. Crossed wires can cause some minor problems today, whether it’s about missing an appointment, forgetting a plan with a friend, or simple misunderstandings due to poor communication. It can be especially difficult concentrating on mundane tasks today, as your mind tends to drift, and your heart is somewhere else altogether! Even so, there can be some progress with a matter related to career, a boss, or manager. Some deeper insights into a partnership can also emerge today if you tune in.
Aquarius
Aquarius
There can be some concerns about how committed a friend or partner is today, dear Aquarius, and you may be questioning motivations. However, from this minor conflict comes more insight into an important matter. Love matters can be intense but revealing now. This can also be a tricky day when things may not be as they appear. Worries about money or support can trouble you if you let your imagination rule the day, but you’re inclined to be seeing things either too negatively or too positively, and perhaps both extremes at different times today, but rarely as they truly are, so wait out important decision making. You can have some difficulty getting motivated to work independently or to do things for yourself. However, you can use this energy to help out others. Dreams can be rich and revealing. Sharing opinions and long-term goals with someone can be strengthening. Finding mutual interests may be an excellent way to smooth relationships over.
Pisces
Pisces
With the Moon moving your work sector and entering your partnership zone this morning, dear Pisces, your personal agenda can move to the back burner just for the time being as you focus on compromising and allowing others to shine. Helping out a partner, or simply listening more intently to their wishes and needs, is one key to success and fulfillment today. Your focus has been on outer success in recent weeks, and now is the time to give due attention to those who support you and who are dear to your heart. Even so, there can be some feelings of being pushed to the side. Recognize that you’re especially sensitive to the moods of people and the atmosphere around you, but consider that your understanding of these things may be quite off! In other words, you might be imagining that a partner or friend is feeling off-center when it’s actually you who is insecure right now. While there is definitely some hypersensitivity now, you also stand to learn a lot and bond closer to someone on an intimate level.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, November 25th
Aries
Aries
A Full Moon occurs today in your communications sector, bringing a project to a head or an important realization into your consciousness, dear Aries. You also have good energy with you today for motivation to pursue a learning endeavor or further a mental interest. Conversations with a partner or special friend can be super helpful, encouraging, and motivating. You are attracting strong, competent, and loyal friends to you now. This is a time for putting ideas into action, sharing thoughts and beliefs, and strengthening alliances through communication. Tend to important errands and demands that are likely to arise today so that you can free yourself up for more adventurous and fulfilling activities. Do what you can to avoid a feeling of being overwhelmed today and this week – it won’t help anything!
Taurus
Taurus
This can be a strong day for supporting others through practical help, or for receiving this kind of help, dear Taurus. It’s also a strong time for work and research, as you can feel more motivated than usual. You might become more aware of the need to take charge of health and fitness matters. A Full Moon occurs in your money and values sector, and this can bring a financial matter to light, a business project to fruition, or it can point to a revelation about how you are valued and respected by others. If you’ve been overspending, this is a reminder to tighten the reins. It’s a great time to give it your all when it comes to pulling in income or developing a talent. There can be a settlement of money or attention to something that you owe now, but emotions today can just as well have to do with an intimate matter.
Gemini
Gemini
This morning is good for tackling difficult problems or taking on a mental challenge, dear Gemini. You are very willing to act on your ideas, and although you’re self-motivated now, a partner or special someone can be encouraging as well. A Full Moon occurs later today, and is in your sign, stimulating epiphanies and realizations as well as heightened emotions. You might realize your feelings about someone or something in a rush. This can give you a nice boost forward. You may not want to act on personal revelations just yet simply because feelings are a little raw, but you certainly can gain from the clarity and begin considering ways to make important changes that take into account any personal revelations you have now.
Cancer
Cancer
You could feel quite driven to put an idea into action or to pursue a line of thought today, dear Cancer, especially if it’s related to family, home, health, and work. This can be a time of organizing or reorganizing, when it’s easier to get through things quickly and efficiently. Illuminating conversations can be had at your workplace or through people you deal with on a daily basis. This afternoon’s Full Moon occurs in your privacy sector. This can bring a secret or private matter into awareness, a work project to fruition, or a health matter to light. It’s a time to become more aware of some of your deeper, buried feelings. Previous hurts can come to light now, and this of course makes them easier to heal, but you might initially feel flooded. You might also experience a sudden, strong desire to sort things out on your own. Some desire to withdraw is likely today.
Leo
Leo
You are able to put a creative spin on whatever you’re doing this morning, dear Leo, and decisions tend to be quick but practical as well. It’s a great time to take care of business or get clarity on a matter. The Full Moon this afternoon can illuminate a friendship or romantic matter for you. It shines brightly in your social sector, and this can prompt the need to come to a friend’s aid, an invitation, or the discovery of important information that completes your picture of a social matter. A romantic revelation is possible, or an announcement can be made by a friend, lover, or child. There is good energy for you to work on a plan for a new long-term goal, but the details will need to be ironed out at a later date when your head is clearer. This can be a good day for picking up new information – ignore the gossip, and do a little research and digging when it comes to more factual topics. Love relationships can be complicated to figure out now.
Virgo
Virgo
Energy levels are good today, dear Virgo, and you are assertive in a healthy way, willing to take the lead in order to get things done, but also conscious of others’ input and needs. It’s a good time for solving problems at home or with business. Hopeful and optimistic feelings revolving around work matters and living conditions. This is a good time to work on a budget or to talk about finances and strategies. A Full Moon occurs in your public and career sector later today. This increases your visibility in general, and it can bring up questions about your responsibilities – what you’ve done in the past, and what you plan on doing in the future to fulfill obligations. You can be a leader now, and circumstances may be such that you are pushed into that position. It’s important to be as professional in your demeanor as possible, even if your “buttons” are being pushed now. While personal matters have demanded a lot of attention lately, there is a nudge towards work and responsibility now.
Libra
Libra
This is a good day for personal magnetism and influence, dear Libra. It may be something you say or do that magnetizes opportunities to you. It’s a good day for making a proposal or presenting an idea. You can more successfully put an idea into action today. Later today, it can be challenging for you to concentrate on the more mundane or regular affairs of everyday life with a Full Moon occurring in your adventure sector. There can be a strong urge to take off somewhere, or to go down a new path on a mental level. For some, this is a time of an important announcement, publishing, or promotion. An idea that you’ve been working on might blossom now. There can be some frustration with chaotic schedules or disarray in your daily affairs. Try to get things into order as much as possible in order to free yourself up for opportunities.
Scorpio
Scorpio
This morning is strong for healing activities, dear Scorpio, as you are drawn to activities that are regenerative in nature. It’s a good time for gaining new information through study and observation. You can more easily focus your mind and prioritize. You are ready to take on intellectual challenges and your problem-solving skills are above par. Tricky issues or ideas can be tackled now with greater ease. Communications with others are energetic and forward-looking. A Full Moon occurs this afternoon, stimulating the sector of your solar chart that rules finances and/or shared resources. Intimate matters may be in focus. There could be some drama with regards to money, or it might be a time for settling debts or collecting on money owed. Take your time when it comes to making any super-important decisions in your intimate life. Emotions are strong right now, and they’re at battle with logic. A wait-and-see attitude can come in handy right now.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
It’s especially straightforward to make a friend or to enjoy a current friendship today, dear Sagittarius. Express yourself and stay flexible – be spontaneous if you feel right about something in your heart. This can be a time for lending someone a hand or acting upon an idea with much satisfaction. Later today, a Full Moon occurs in in your opposing sign and solar partnership sector. Previously undiscovered emotions or relationship issues can come to light. There could be a culmination of a personal project for some. This can simply be something that has been brewing inside of you that now reaches a personal epiphany. This energy can be very revealing on an inner level. Sudden awareness of a pre-existing situation, or totally new information, can figure strongly today, especially regarding a significant other in your life. Work on emotional self-control today, but do listen to what your feelings are telling you.
Capricorn
Capricorn
You can feel considerably more optimistic and ready for action today, dear Capricorn. You are motivated to fulfill your duties, and then some, and the positive feedback only serves to encourage you further. You may effectively read between the lines, draw upon past experience, or uncover information now that helps you advance. As quickly as the day may demand your attention, taking time to center yourself will be appropriate. A Full Moon occurs late afternoon, reminding you of the need to better manage your daily routines, work, and health. Deadlines can be pressing now. No need to jump to conclusions now, however, because the emotional energy level is too high to see clearly just for the time being. Even so, it’s important to acknowledge the feelings that emerge today and make a plan for better meeting your needs going forward.
Aquarius
Aquarius
You are expressing yourself with confidence and verve today, dear Aquarius. You can be a little more assertive than usual in effective rather than assertive ways. Grab any opportunity that arises now that pulls you out of your usual routine and adds a dash of adventure to your life. Problem solving or active involvement with a friend or group can figure strongly. A Full Moon occurs in your creativity and romance sector late afternoon, and it’s bringing illumination to an issues surrounding friends, romance, and personal goals. There can be an epiphany, a significant turning point, or final word on a matter. Listen to your heart, as you’re likely to discover your feelings about someone or about a pet project.
Pisces
Pisces
You have the stamina and energy to accomplish a lot in the first half of the day, dear Pisces, although later with the Full Moon, emotions can be a little draining. There is a focus on treating one another fairly, and on straightforward communication. Your x-ray vision is strong this morning, which is good for business moves or strategies for general life direction and next steps. It’s rather easy to drum up support for what you’re doing and saying. The Full Moon later today can stimulate a sudden need to shuffle around your priorities, as your attention turns to your home front and inner, personal plans. Emotions surface and light is brought to feelings and situations that were previously hidden. The need to strike a balance between your career and family life (or your professional and personal life) becomes evident with the events of the day and this week. These areas of life are stirred up for good reason, and this reason is likely to be clear in the coming weeks.
Our authenticity is tested by the dualistic Full Moon in Gemini on November 25, 2015. Our core beliefs may need to be revised to stay current with incoming information. We are mentally active while the Moon is hanging out in restless Gemini, but her oppositions to authoritative Saturn, the Sun, and communicative Mercury, plus a square to Neptune, bring shifting moods, contradictory experiences, and unrealistic thoughts to the mix… The gift of this Full Moon in Gemini is to galvanize the mundane world with the unrealized potential that is dormant within our imaginations.
See how this Full Moon could affect YOUR life by reading your sign’s horoscope below:
Aries Horoscope (March 21 – April 19)
Being nice to yourself is one thing, but over-indulgence is an entirely different story. The playful Gemini Full Moon activates your 3rd House of Communication, encouraging you to involve others in your mischief. Unfortunately, reality is filtered by your biases, presenting you with only part of the truth. Nevertheless, you’re still compelled to direct everyone else based on what you think you know — even if your facts are slightly distorted. William Blake wrote, “The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.”
Taurus Horoscope (April 20 – May 20)
You are dazzled by all the bright lights and brilliant ideas while the witty Gemini Full Moon floods your 2nd House of Self-Worth. But recognizing the value in other people’s perspectives doesn’t have to threaten your own. Thankfully, there’s no reason to go into denial about your feelings just because you’re going along with the crowd. Keep communication channels open and be ready to learn something surprising about yourself. Inspiration comes from the unlikeliest sources.
Gemini Horoscope May 21 – June 20)
You can sense the cosmic pull of your emotions, but transforming your feelings into action isn’t as straightforward as it sounds. The Full Moon falls in your sign and opposes stern Saturn in your 7th House of Others, magnifying the tension in relationship dynamics. It helps to remember that you can lose perspective by giving too much importance to your changing moods. Wait until the storms pass before taking any extreme measures. What seems incredibly critical in the present moment might be soon be seen as a passing whim.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – July 22)
The current emotional high tides can bounce you around on the seas of change, even if others can’t see your inner turmoil on the outside. You are like a chameleon as you absorb the energy of the reflective Gemini Full Moon in your 12th House of Invisibility. Rather than hiding your colorful dreams from view, reveal a secret to someone close to you. Being vulnerable may feel scary at first, but taking a risk leads to a tender experience and sparks a spiritual epiphany.
Leo Horoscope (July 23 – Aug. 22)
You can’t be everything to everyone, even if you try with all your might. The Gemini Full Moon highlights your 11th House of Social Networking, fueling your desire to be accepted and admired by the group. Unfortunately, you can become too involved too quickly if you let your personal responsibilities slide. Consider a temporary retreat from the situation if you find yourself in too deep. Establish your exit strategy right away, but wait a while before doing anything that might spoil the party.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
The complexity of too many conflicting plans at work may have your stomach tied up in knots. You are hoping the dynamics will return to normal soon, since you’re stretched far enough in too many directions. You want your old life back, but it probably won’t happen for a while because the insatiably curious Gemini Moon accentuates your 10th House of Career. Manage your day by making whatever necessary adjustments you must to keep the peace, but don’t settle for less in the long run.
Libra Horoscope (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
Sharing your aspirations with close friends is a lovely pastime while the chatty Gemini Full Moon brightens your 9th House of Distant Horizons. Although your emotions may not be consistent, you still remain doggedly fixed on the general direction of your personal plot. Keep in mind that it might not be productive to make long-range plans, but it is prime time to dream of all the idealistic scenarios that could stretch across your future.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Your mind is hyperactive with so many thoughts that you can’t discern the useful ones from the superfluous noise. It’s as if you’re compelled to run through every possible trajectory for each relationship in your life. The friendly Gemini Full Moon shines in your 8th House of Intimacy, strengthening your resolve to make the most of every personal connection, whether or not it matches up to your dreams. Don’t try to micromanage the flow of events or you could inadvertently attract the opposite of what you want. A light touch is better than a heavy hand.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Your patience is pushed to the limit by close friends and coworkers who seem to change their minds every few minutes. You can’t keep up with all the drama while the restless Gemini Full Moon agitates your 7th House of Others. Unfortunately, you are very susceptible to the chaos all around you and might allow it to distract you from your work. But don’t isolate yourself from those who could benefit from your honest opinion. Ironically, you can also learn something significant, if you’re willing to listen as much as you speak.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
There are so many variables at work, it’s nearly impossible to map out a sensible strategy. Your associates may be making demands on your time, whether spoken or implied, but you can’t tell what they really want. The scattered Gemini Full Moon’s presence in your 6th House of Details complicates the dynamics even further, but you won’t solve anything by just walking away. Taking a tentative first step is easier once you admit you don’t know where to begin. The truth will set you free.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You love riding a creative high, except there’s so much going on in your world that you might begin to feel panicky. The flighty Gemini Full Moon lights up your 5th House of Spontaneity, but you’re afraid that following your bliss isn’t productive. Instead, your nagging insecurity drives you to put everything in your life back into a manageable order, but regaining total control could be a hopeless goal. Remember, your current lack of efficiency doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong. Don’t sell yourself short; your intuitive choices will make more sense in a few days.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb. 19 – March 20)
Taking on extra responsibilities is one way of demonstrating your commitment to your peers. But the inquisitive Gemini Full Moon occurs in your 4th House of Foundations, reflecting the light back into your private world. You don’t like feeling the pressure to maintain control of outer events when the inner realms are calling your name so convincingly. Ultimately, it could be beneficial to surrender to the whims of your imagination. Sometimes the greatest clarity comes from within.
Wednesday (Mercury): The conscious mind, study, travel, divination, and wisdom.

The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your solar ninth house, dear Aries, where it will transit until December 9th. This is a supportive aspect for communications and transportation in general. You express yourself with more enthusiasm, and perhaps more importantly, with increased faith. This goes over very well with others, leading you to feel especially “heard” and reinforced. This cycle stirs your curiosity and stimulates your desire to learn new things. You have a stronger desire to reach out to others or to expand your knowledge. Today can bring some complicated feelings or interactions, but what emerges now can be an important clue to what you fear most. If relationship dynamics seem out of balance, resolve to make adjustments so that you and a partner or friend feel empowered by your connection. Try your best to replace fear with love in order to heal yourself and strengthen your relationships. Worries about work may be unfounded. Watch for a tendency to go to extremes that interferes with healthy interactions.
Taurus
Taurus
The planet of communication, Mercury, begins its transit of your solar eighth house today, Taurus. You are not as concerned with being heard and understood during this cycle as much as you are interested in understanding the workings of people and situations around you at a deeper level. It’s a good time for bringing up typically tricky topics with a special someone. In fact, you might have some especially intimate or unusual conversations during this cycle that lasts until December 9th. There is good energy for exploring some of your own fears or negative attitudes, and it’s also a strong time for financial planning. Today, there can be a lot going on under the surface of things, however, and there is a tendency to express ourselves in indirect ways, which can be destructive or simply frustrating. An old hurt or resentment can be stirred or triggered. Rather than letting it rule your behavior, examine what’s emerging now and try to put it behind you. While entertaining intense emotions is perfectly fine, dwelling on something that you don’t intend to, or can’t, change is not going to do you any good. It may be difficult to do, but letting go of a particular stance or desire to be right can be the best thing for you and for your relationships now.
Gemini
Gemini
Mercury enters your relationship sector today, dear Gemini, and will continue to transit this solar house until December 9th. This brings favorable energy for opening up the airways of communication with a partner, good friend, or even a counselor. During this cycle, decision-making feels better when done with someone else rather than solo. Even if you’re not following their advice, you’re likely to enjoy hearing other points of view before coming to a conclusion. You’re heading towards a very strong period for partnering with the Sun soon following Mercury into your relationship sector. Today, you might experience an intense attraction or impulses that come from a deep place, or you could be reminded of a difficult time or complicated feelings. Relationships may not be straightforward now, and you could sense a hidden agenda or emotional traps in some of your interactions. Be careful that you’re not holding onto something only because you fear letting go. Unhealthy attachments may become clear today, and while this can feel a little uncomfortable, it also brings things into the light so that you can manage them rather than allow them to control you. Avoid manipulative tactics and those using them.
Cancer
Cancer
The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your work and health sector, Cancer, and this transit stimulates your inclination to organize, research, and learn. You may be especially interested in health and nutrition topics during this cycle that lasts until December 9th, and you’re likely to make lists of things that need to be done. This trend will grow even stronger once Sun moves into the same sector in two days. It’s a great time for ironing out the details of your life, but taken too far, you could be fretting or stressing over less important things and failing to see the bigger picture in the process. Look for ways to keep busy and improve your skills. Today, tricky energy is with us, particularly with close relationships. Interactions can feel guarded or you could sense that someone is either holding back or trying to control or direct you, which can be frustrating. Those close to you can be very touchy and sensitive now. Focus on breaking out of old patterns of relating that haven’t been very successful.
Leo
Leo
The planet of communication, Mercury, begins transiting your romance and creativity sector today, Leo, and will continue to influence this area of your solar chart until December 9th. This cycle can stimulate an increased need for communication and activities or mental stimulation with romantic partners, or for some, with your children. Alternatively, it’s a time for expressing yourself with more flair and doing a little healthy showing off with what you know. You might even feel that you’re thinking more creatively than usual and should take advantage of this time to express yourself. The Sun will follow and enter this same sector of your chart in two days, stimulating even stronger interest in romance, hobbies, children, and leisure/gaming time. This is a period when you and your ideas are generally received positively. Today, there can be some tension interfering in your relationships and communications, however. Your words may be taken the wrong way, and even the simplest of communications can be laced with sarcasm or anger. If you observe this happening, try to detach yourself from the situation and move back into it once you gain some perspective. It’s all too easy for someone or something to trigger vulnerable areas of your psyche today and early tomorrow.
Virgo
Virgo
The planet of communication, Mercury, which happens also to be your planetary ruler, is now moving through your home and family sector, dear Virgo. In just two days, the Sun will move into this same sector. This cycle that lasts until December 9th stimulates increased activity and communications in your home environment and/or with family members. In a worldly sense, you may not be at your very best when it comes to expressing your ideas and garnering support for them, but on a personal level, you are communicating with more ease and pleasure. You may be giving a lot of thought to what’s best for you and your family in the coming weeks. Today, tricky energy is with us, particularly when it comes to the handling of money and relationship dynamics. There can be a possessive streak to you now, and this more likely a symptom of something that runs deeper than the matter at hand. Fear of not having control over your life can lead you to hold on to things, people, and situations. Consciously allowing yourself to let go, even a little, can be cathartic now. Worries about money may or may not be sound, but if they don’t motivate yourself to handle matters, then you’re wasting your energy.
Libra
Libra
The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your communications sector, Libra, where it feels right at home! It’s a good time for expressing yourself verbally and in written form, as well as for learning, studies, and socializing. While it’s not the best time for focusing and concentrating on any one particular subject, you can be a sort of jack of all trades now. Because Mercury rules your privacy sector, it’s also a time when you can express yourself on secret or private matters more readily. This cycle lasts until December 9th. In just two days, the Sun will also enter this sector of your chart, and your curiosity will increase further. The general pace of your daily life is also set to pick up. Today, energy is tricky for relationships. Venus, your ruler, is in your sign, and this can bring you a lot of admiring attention. However, it clashes with Pluto, and this can stir up insecurities and fears, or some conflict in your domestic life. If you feel that people are trying to manipulate you, or that you need to resort to manipulation in order to get your way, examine things a little more closely. Work on your part of the problem and understand that you can’t control others, and make it clear that you need to be dealt with directly.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Today’s energies are a little tricky, dear Scorpio, with your own ruler, Pluto, in difficult aspect with Venus and later the Sun. You could feel slighted by others or not appreciated for what you do. Feelings of discontent can lead to manipulative or disruptive behavior if you’re not careful. A tendency to dwell on the past can interfere with healthy interactions in the present. Controlling a conversation or persuading someone to believe something can be temptations now, but won’t lead to improvement. It’s probably better to address a difficult area head on rather than let it fester. Be kinder to yourself by letting a matter go and moving on – this can in fact be quite cathartic. The planet of communication, Mercury, begins its transit of your finances and values sector today, and will continue to influence this area of your solar chart until December 9th. In just two days, the Sun will move into this same sector. This pulls your attention to your practical affairs. Rational, logical Mercury can help you see your finances in a different way, and stimulate new ideas about making and saving money. Your style of communication is less flashy with this transit, and your mind often turns to matters revolving around ownership, comfort, and resources.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Tricky energy is with us today and tomorrow, dear Sagittarius, and for you, it’s more likely to interfere with your relationships with friends or associates. There is a general tendency to try to control others or manipulate our way to our goals, which should be avoided. Someone or a situation could trigger a vulnerable feeling now, and it would be wise to aim to understand yourself better through your reactions. Don’t allow fear or resentment to drive your behavior, and do what makes you most proud of yourself. If others seem to want to pull you into emotional game-playing, refuse to participate. The planet of communication, Mercury, moves into your own sign today, and this is great news for all things “Mercury” in your life, including communications, learning, and transportation. You become considerably more talkative and expressive now and during this cycle that lasts until December 9th. You are also busier than usual, more inclined to attract others through your perspective or wit, your curiosity is piqued, and you can feel especially motivated to get moving on a pet project, or to learn something entirely new. This is also a good cycle for your career and reputation, which seem to be moving along in your favor. The Sun will soon enter your sign as well, and it’s perfectly appropriate to focus on some of your own plans and interests.
Capricorn
Capricorn
The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your privacy sector, dear Capricorn, and this points to a more indecisive stage, as well as a search for meaning. Answers don’t seem to come as straightforwardly as usual. You are not as quick to talk of your plans during this cycle that lasts until December 9th. Plans tend to be in an incubation stage, or old ones may be thrown out. You may have a harder time defining things or putting feelings to words just for now. Even so, this can be a wonderful time for seeing layers to situations that you may have missed. Today brings possible tension and competition, particularly with those in authority or in the world of business, but this can also extend to your personal world. Keep all of your dealings aboveboard and avoid becoming trapped in game playing. While you can’t control how others are approaching situations, you can control how you react.
Aquarius
Aquarius
The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your solar eleventh house, dear Aquarius, and will continue to transit this friendly area of your chart until December 9th. This brings good energy for interacting with friends and sharing your ideals, dreams, and hopes with like-minded individuals. New ideas for the future might be hatched during this cycle. They’re still very fresh, and some might be scrapped later, but there is a birthing process of sorts going on right now. This is a time when sharing your ideas or your expertise with others can bring rewards. Today’s energies are not so free and breezy, however. If there is a tendency to extremes, it’s likely to emerge today. The desire for new experiences and to move forward in your life can be hampered now by a feeling that you can’t quite let go of the past. If you find that you’re avoid
Pisces
Pisces
The planet of communication, Mercury, is now moving through your solar tenth house, dear Pisces, until December 9th. This can stimulate increased mental activity and communications to and about your career and position in society. Others take special note of your ideas and what you have to say during this cycle. There is no need to be self-conscious about expressing yourself now, but there may be some need for extra care in expressing yourself with tact and professionalism, as your words have more impact and a wider audience now. Today brings some tricky energy. You might not may be on the same wavelength with someone, and you could be receiving mixed signals. There is a tendency to read more into what’s happening around you. While it’s quite likely that people have hidden agendas today as we are not inclined to speak of our needs directly, it’s best not to focus too strongly on the negative. Be kind to yourself and the ones you love by seeing the good in one another, but keep some things to yourself just for now. Avoid mind games and power plays.
The Moon slips into your privacy sector this morning, dear Aries, and from now until Saturday morning, you’re more inclined to seek out some form of solitude or withdrawal from overly demanding situations. You are in need of an emotional recharge and perhaps some review before a new lunar month begins. You can do some important digging today, whether this is in your own psyche or some form of research, and become completely absorbed in what you’re doing. Whether it’s just for fun or more serious work, this can be a day in which you’re especially motivated. Try not to waste your time on trivial matters, as there can be a tendency to obsess or become mentally wrapped up with something, and it’s best channeled into something worthwhile and constructive. Take extra care in your communications, as your intent may be misinterpreted.
Taurus
Taurus
Today is strong for expressing and showing your loyalty, dear Taurus, and for throwing yourself into a special project or cause. You’re looking for some level of devotion from the people around you, although this can be tricky, as not everyone is on your wavelength right now. Try not to stress over conflicting perceptions of the way you feel things should be, or over differences of opinion, as people tend to be wrapped up in their own personal issues right now. You can enjoy a nice escape from everyday concerns through friendships or networking activities. Take the pressure off and don’t over-think things today, unless, of course, you’re enjoying the process or topic!
Gemini
Gemini
Your tendency today is to dig a little deeper in whatever you’re doing, dear Gemini, as you’re not especially content to live life on the surface of things. It can be a strong day for business and work of all kinds, and particularly projects that require dedication or focus. It’s quite easy for you to become thoroughly absorbed in your work and experiences right now. Today and the next few days bring a Pluto theme, which can intensify your feelings but it can also stimulate any tendency to dwell on problem areas, so watch for that. Harness the passion and direct it into a worthwhile cause, or something that truly helps you. You may be trying to push the envelope today, which can be a good thing if you want to take something further. Use this time to find answers to problems rather than to entertain negative or suspicious thoughts.
Cancer
Cancer
With the Moon moving into your solar ninth house this morning, dear Cancer, you can feel as if you’re coming into the light, feeling more outgoing and adventurous. Even so, Pluto is strong and a little difficult today and in the next couple days, which can point to a tendency for people to be more serious than usual. Don’t tolerate people who are trying to play games with you through double talk or other manipulative methods. You don’t need to be taken down that road. Also, if you begin to feel a little threatened by others’ behavior, try to pull yourself out of a negative or jealous mindset. As long as you don’t absorb others’ tension, and focus instead on what you’d like to accomplish, you should have a fine day. There is strong energy with you for creative or educational pursuits that require an extra dose of passion or dedication, both of which are easier to come by today.
Leo
Leo
This morning, the Moon moves into your intimacy zone for a couple of days, dear Leo. This is a slightly more introspective phase when you’re more inclined to watch and see than to jump into action. With Pluto strong and a little challenging today and the next two days, this quality is emphasized. You may be feeling especially passionate about something or someone, and if you channel this intensity constructively, this can be a strong time for important research or progress on a project. Watch that you don’t waste energy on negative thinking or dwelling on problems that you have no power to change. The need to make important changes to your routines or your work situation can be pronounced now. Try not to become obsessed over finding answers to problems, but do try to focus your energy so that you can really make headway. Directing your own work, if possible, is ideal for you right now, as you can resent others controlling your schedule. Today is good for researching health and self-improvement topics, especially alternative therapies for healing.
Virgo
Virgo
Your ruler, Mercury, is in a minor tense aspect with intense Pluto today, dear Virgo, which can give you a rather serious or intense aura. Try your best to avoid negative lines of communicating and thinking, as these can spiral downward rather quickly! There is no need to dwell on problem areas. Your inclination is to go your own way, and stick to your way. A stubborn streak surfaces! This can work to your benefit if you find a constructive channel for your passion and determination. In fact, you can make wonderful progress on a project or explore an interest more deeply today with good results and much satisfaction. You are not very content with falseness or superficiality, and a little less willing to overlook these things than usual. The Moon moves into your partnership sector this morning, and you tend to want to have company in most things you do.
Libra
Libra
With the Moon’s move into your work and health sector this morning, dear Libra, you’re shifting focus to slightly more serious matters. A Mercury-Pluto influence with us today furthers this theme – you’re likely to be seeing the details that aren’t working more than the systems that are. This can be helpful if you use it constructively. In fact, it can be a very productive day when problem solving skills are emphasized. Avoid negative thought patterns. Around the home front, here may be some frustrations surfacing that need to be aired. Clear these up and work on resolving problem areas, but don’t overdo things. Overextending yourself won’t help. This can be a good day for handling a financial or work matter with finesse. You might also find the motivation and dedication to pursue a fitness or health goal.
Scorpio
Scorpio
You are especially sharp and curious today, dear Scorpio, and might be asked to speak or express yourself about an important matter. However, there may be a tendency for certain others to misunderstand some of the things you say, so strive to be as clear as possible. Watch for pushing a matter too far, and protect your light by avoiding negative thought patterns. Do encourage the investigator and detective in you, as today requires a deeper analysis, and you are particularly skilled at getting to the bottom of things. The Moon’s move into your sector of recreation, entertainment, romance, and creative pursuits encourages your more spontaneous side. It can be an expressive time!
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
The Moon moves into your family and soul sector this morning, dear Sagittarius, where it will spend a couple days, turning your emotional focus to personal and familiar matters. It’s time to explore your inner and domestic worlds and get into better touch with your needs for nurture and comfort. Interactions with a partner or good friend can be warm and passionate, but also quite intense. A powerful conversation that might feel uncomfortable at first can actually be healing, but only if you are especially conscious that suspicion and negativity are avoided. Don’t be afraid to tackle the deep stuff, but don’t push for “truths” if you don’t like what you’re currently hearing. This can be a good time for throwing yourself into a home project or domestic activity.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Getting through your schedule or routine could be a tad challenging today, dear Capricorn, as your mind is somewhere else altogether – on your personal issues. Avoid frustration by opening your mind and making room for the unexpected. You may be feeling a strong desire to micromanage things, or to be in control of situations that probably should be given some space! Unusual and possibly tricky situations with friends or acquaintances can occur today. Try your best not to get into power plays. Keep your mind stimulated by mixing up the routine in small ways with the Moon moving into your solar third house – a sector of your chart that demands a bit of variety. Even so, this can be a good time for putting extra energy into a particular project, cause, or study.
Aquarius
Aquarius
The Moon moves out of your sign this morning, dear Aquarius, and into your resources sector. A quiet day would be ideal for you as emotions tend to settle in. Both professional and personal responsibilities can weigh heavily on your mind now, particularly if there are rumors circulating or if you hear something that you are inclined to take the wrong way. People can be moody today, and there can be some double talk or manipulative tactics at play, which can be frustrating, as you’d prefer that people say what they mean. Try not to absorb others’ negativity, and focus on your own projects and goals. In fact, today is strong for investing time and energy into a pursuit that requires concentration or dedication.
Pisces
Pisces
The Moon moves into your sign this morning, and this brings out your need to be part of the main story line, engaged, and involved, dear Pisces. The tone around you can be a little tense or intense at times today, however, and you’re inclined to soak things in like an emotional sponge. Be sure to avoid taking on others’ poor moods or immersing yourself in tense situations. Conversations today tend to be intense rather than light. While you shouldn’t avoid important topics altogether, you can certainly let others know that you’d like to defer them for a better time. If something can’t wait, be as aboveboard as possible. There is good energy for doing something creative, particularly a project or activity that requires passionate involvement and concentration or dedication.

Speaking the truth isn’t always easy, especially if our feelings are in conflict with someone else’s. We’re torn between supporting those we love and maintaining our integrity. Nevertheless, the relentless Scorpio New Moon on November 11, 2015, plants a seed that urges us to express what’s in our hearts at any cost. Fortunately, we can reach deeper into the watery mysteries because curious Mercury is present at the planetary gathering in Scorpio. Delving into our emotions now is like diving into a bottomless well. However, the further down we’re willing to go, the greater the treasures we find.
Although there are challenging issues to tackle, buoyant Jupiter’s supportive sextile to this New Moon puts a positive spin on nearly any conversation started at this time. Don’t withdraw if the going gets tough; when in doubt, discuss what’s on your mind. This intense New Moon brings the potential to transmute fear into love with the same evolutionary power that transforms a caterpillar into a butterfly. Remember, shadows are banished by the light of awareness. As Eleanor Roosevelt said, “It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.”
Find out how this New Moon will influence YOU with your sign’s horoscope below.
Aries Horoscope (March 21 – April 19)
You can’t help but raise issues that everyone else would rather avoid now. You’re not looking to stir up trouble, but talking about a sensitive subject might prompt others to discredit you by criticizing your opinions. Although you don’t want to waste energy defending your philosophy, it may be necessary in order to defuse the negativity before it takes hold. Thankfully, this perceptive Scorpio New Moon falls in your 8th House of Metamorphosis, inspiring you to see the conversation through to a successful conclusion.
Taurus Horoscope (April 20 – May 20)
Ignoring a friend or lover’s incisive feedback is not a wise tactic while the Scorpio New Moon rattles your 7th House of Significant Others. You might not want to listen to what’s being said, but taking a message to heart can be a significant catalyst for personal growth. There’s no need to nod your head in agreement; however, seriously considering someone’s less-than-pleasant assessment is grist for your mill. No matter how useful the new information is to your transformation, you’ll be a stronger person for going through the process.
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – June 20)
Making simple modifications to your daily routine may be the smartest thing you can do, as long as you choose ones that don’t turn your life upside down. Fortunately, a subtle adjustment can set a series of profound consequences into motion when the Scorpio New Moon shakes up your 6th House of Self-Improvement. The potential for change is likely, so pick your direction wisely. Just remember that being too insistent could overwhelm others, causing your plans to backfire. Acting with gentle persistence is much more effective than making one dramatic gesture.
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – July 22)
You might believe your world has come to a standstill, but in truth it has not. To the contrary, you’re right on the verge of something big. Perhaps you recently thought about starting a creative project or making a move on the romantic front. In either case, this evocative Scorpio New Moon fires up your 5th House of Self-Expression, intensifying the emotional process. But nothing will happen overnight, so be patient. It’s always darkest just before the dawn.
Leo Horoscope (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Your feelings could be at odds with your actions. You might choose to withhold your desires and just smile your way through a conflict, but you won’t likely get away with it. Acknowledge your subjectivity while the passionate Scorpio New Moon spotlights your 4th House of Security. Thankfully, you can change the rules of the game; instead of choosing emotions or logic, seek a position that honors both realms. Maintain a close connection with your heart while listening to the advice offered by your rational mind.
Virgo Horoscope (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
There may not be a better time to take initiative on an important project. Put your plans into action while the Scorpio New Moon energizes your 3rd House of Immediate Environment. Use this creative lunar power to get your ideas out into the open, whether verbally or written. Nevertheless, it might be nearly impossible to follow through on everything you start. Ride the planetary waves of change by relying on your sense of humor to keep everyone laughing, since the current intensity won’t last very long.
Libra Horoscope (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
You’re holding onto a very well-kept secret, and this unexpressed juicy tidbit may have negative consequences. It’s tempting to express all the pleasant parts of your story while hiding the less palatable facts. Thankfully, the potent Scorpio New Moon lands in your 2nd House of Self-Esteem, giving you the power to overcome your fears and then bring them out into the open. Working through your resistance isn’t possible if you keep denying valid concerns; adopt a fierce attitude and face your challenges head-on.
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
You can do nearly anything if you put your mind to it and commit to relentlessly executing your plan. It’s as if you are carrying a secret vial of superpowers, but it’s actually the New Moon’s presence in your Fixed sign. You must use this magic potion carefully or you might create more problems than you solve. Your efforts to save the world are admirable, but acknowledging your limits can prevent disappointment tomorrow. Global transformation must start from within.
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You might miss a rare opportunity to connect with someone close to you if you get lost in your desire for professional success, instead. You appear to be emotionally present and act as if you’re living in the moment. But no one really knows what’s going on behind your eyes since the enigmatic Scorpio New Moon occurs in your 12th House of Secrets. Deep soul-searching could reveal that you’re not yet ready to share your vulnerability with anyone else. Trust your intuition to know when the time is right.
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
You can engage people with calculated precision, as if you are playing a competitive game of chess. However, your ideas may be more fixed than others realize and you might not want to change your plans while the unrelenting Scorpio New Moon activates your 11th House of Goals. Trust your instincts and you’ll know exactly what move to make next to keep the win within your grasp. Analyze every possible scenario with careful consideration; your single-mindedness could bring you victory sooner than you think.
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
Long-term career goals take priority while the Scorpio New Moon emphasizes your 10th House of Status. Your uncanny ability to control your emotions creates a magnetism that could have your biggest critics eating from your hand. But this gift is not to be used for the sole purpose of manipulation; instead, utilize your powers of persuasion thoughtfully so others will line up to be on your team. Integrate your altruistic intentions with strategic action for the best results.
Pisces Horoscope (Feb. 19 – March 20)
Successful planning for the future requires you to have an accurate map that reveals the exact lay of the land. But sometimes getting your bearings is challenging, especially when the mysterious Scorpio New Moon is stimulating your 9th House of Big Ideas. Thankfully, you should land safely at your destination just in time, as long as you continue to visualize your arrival. Take the extra step and create an itinerary for the coming months so that you can stay on track as you move toward fulfilling your dreams.
Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, November 11th
Aries
Aries
The New Moon occurring today energizes your sector of intimacy and sharing, dear Aries, and this can be a time of empowerment. Particularly as it occurs between Jupiter and Pluto, the coming week is excellent for starting a new plan of empowerment. Quitting bad habits are generally best done in the days before a New Moon, and starting new long-term programs are best in the week following a New Moon. Going forward, it’s best to initiate a plan that incorporates better habits and routines for emotional health and wellness. This can be a good time for new financial plans, taking out loans or consolidating debt, starting a counseling program, and paying special, exclusive attention to a partnership or project – taking a relationship or special project to a new level. This is a great time for looking for help from someone, whether it’s emotional or financial support, or if it’s about combining talents and resources in order to further a project, goal, or your work/business.
Taurus
Taurus
A New Moon occurs in your opposite sign today, dear Taurus, and this provides a blast of energy for relationships now and in the coming weeks. One-on-one relationships, negotiations, counseling, marriage, or business partnerships can be in stronger focus now. You’re ready to take charge or start fresh in or with a relationship. This is a time to redefine your relationships. You may be especially aware of a need to rely upon a person or to team up at this time. It’s also a good time for redirecting more energy into a relationship if it’s in need of extra attention. You’re in a great position to move a relationship forward, although there may be some issues to deal with that make you feel a little claustrophobic at times. Creatively speaking, it can be a good time to pair up.
Gemini
Gemini
With a New Moon occurring in your work and health sector today, dear Gemini, you are receiving a boost of energy and confidence for getting your daily or working life and routines into order. In the coming weeks, good energy is with you for beginning new regimes, healthy routines, and satisfying work schedules or new work projects and goals. You have more motivation to take care of business, reorganize, work on new or revived projects, and firm up health and self-care programs. Some of you could find a new way to approach an old health or work problem, and this is exciting and motivating. There may be an opportunity to work from home or work on the home that is rewarding in the weeks ahead.
Cancer
Cancer
The New Moon today brings energy for a new beginning on creative and self-expressive levels, dear Cancer. The weeks ahead are strong for expressing your unique vision, putting your talents to good use, improvements to your romantic life (and possibly a new beginning), injecting a spirit of fun into your life, and for creative hobbies and pursuits. There can be much enjoyment through the discovery of how your own creativity impacts the world around you. You can be feeling bolder and more sure of yourself. Communications are also in strong focus now, making this a wonderful time to reach out to others, write, speak, and share your ideas. A partner, sibling, or fellow student can be helpful for encouraging you to express yourself more joyfully.
Leo
Leo
Recently, there has been more focus on your roots, home life, and personal plans, dear Leo, and today’s New Moon gives you the charge and motivation to make something happen along these lines. You might begin a new project on or in the home, get a family activity going, and reconnect with your need to nurture and be nurtured now and in the coming weeks. You might discover or rediscover a need for security, stability, or self-nurturing now, and decide to direct more of your energy into filling these needs. This New Moon connects with Jupiter and Pluto in your money and work sectors, and this can mean working from home or on a new long-term business for some of you. This is also a strong time for communicating your wishes and needs to others. Channel your energies into a project around the home or an initiative that will truly make you feel more comfortable, secure, and established.
Virgo
Virgo
There has been more emphasis on errands, communications, and busy work these days, dear Virgo, and today’s New Moon can help bring everything together. You might have an important project to work on, a new line of study you’re interested in, or a new goal for connecting with people around you, and this lunation helps you to focus on achieving what you want and need to do. There may be a new channel for communication or transportation that opens up to you, allowing you to more easily reach out. You could feel more energetic as your goals are defined and clearer. Self-expression and creativity are part of all of this, and you could very well discover your voice now – you want to be heard, to become more involved with others, and to share your ideas and creations. Confidence in yourself and your talents is increasing, and as this happens, you are more inclined to want to share.
Libra
Libra
The New Moon occurring today is strong for getting your priorities into order, dear Libra. Now and in the coming weeks, you are in a great position for getting a better handle on your finances, home life, and business. You have an increased appreciation for stability, physical comforts, and long-term plans that help you feel more secure and productive. It’s a good time for drawing upon inner strength and support of family in order to better accomplish your goals. Any activities that connect you with the physical world, the “here and now”, and a sense that you are grounded and supported can be especially helpful now. Financial goals that make sense can come into focus now – you’re in need of a game plan. Mars will move into your sign tomorrow, and this can really get you going as motivation and energy to pursue what you desire for yourself is part of the Mars in Libra package deal!
Scorpio
Scorpio
The New Moon occurring today is a strong one for you, dear Scorpio. It not only occurs in your sign (a yearly event), it is also supported by your ruler, Pluto, in your communications zone. This gives you an extra lift or boost to make real, long-lasting changes that will improve your life. This is a time for reinventing yourself if you feel the need, for approaching life with more confidence and a healthy sense of entitlement, and for expressing yourself. It sits in the middle of a Jupiter-Pluto trine in your social and communications sectors, making this a strong time for redefining the ways in which you communicate with the world around you, your involvement with your community, and which groups, friends, and causes you align yourself with. All of these things impact who you are and how you come across to others. This is a personally busy time, and you can be feeling especially effective and enthusiastic. You are in the driver’s seat – make what you are doing as positive as possible.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
There is a New Moon today, dear Sagittarius, and it occurs in the sign just behind yours (Scorpio). This gives you strong energy for dealing with matters of the past, healing, and reconnecting with your inner spirit, dreams, and needs. The coming week can be a considered, in a larger sense, a period of review, letting go, and recharging of your spiritual batteries. You could be focusing on serving others or withdrawing a little into yourself as you reassess which goals, attitudes, and situations in your life need to be put behind you or re-purposed as you move forward. This is a yearly event, and it’s an important one, as it prepares you for the next New Moon that will be in your sign and that represents reinvention or a mini rebirth of your personality and personal goals. This is a time for seeking emotional peace of mind, and part of this process could involve some changes to how you approach your work and financial life. If disorganization in these areas has been dragging you down or weighing heavily on you, then this is a time for taking steps to get your practical affairs into order.
Capricorn
Capricorn
There is a New Moon today, dear Capricorn, and it falls in an area of your chart that reigns over your connection to friends and groups, as well as your ideals and long-term happiness goals. This is a good time for starting fresh with a group, a friend, associates, or even the way you approach networking. It can also be a time for reconnecting with an important cause or a stronger sense of community. There could be a need or desire to team up or strengthen your ties with a group or activity/cause. Your leadership skills can come into focus now, although you’ll find more reward in connections with others that take some of the emphasis off the self. This can be an excellent time for promotional efforts, educational pursuits, publishing, and learning. It can be a time of making important connections, and possibly life-long or even life-changing ones. You can be a source of inspiration for others, and others’ new ideas can inspire you as well now. Be sure to reach out and connect now and in the coming week.
Aquarius
Aquarius
The New Moon occurring today sits at the top of your solar chart, dear Aquarius, and points to a new beginning of sorts, which can be energetically speaking or more literal, in a life-path project, career, or reputation matter. This is a strong time for feeling the need for an overarching plan or structure to your life, and a great period for setting goals that motivate you. This can be a time of heightened ambitions, a renewal or re-invigoration of goals, a more in-charge feeling, and a desire to be on top of your responsibilities. Goals for self-mastery and self-discipline can be tied in with these things, as well as a desire to put the past behind you in order to better concentrate on moving forward. This can also be a rather visible time for you. You’re more likely to get the support and backing you need in order to advance your goals now.
Pisces
Pisces
Today’s New Moon is one of the easier ones for you in any given year, dear Pisces, as it occurs in a sign that’s compatible with yours (Scorpio) and stimulates your need to feed your spirit. This one ties together with social goals, and you might very well find that people in your life, particularly friends or a partner, can help point you in the right direction. It’s a good time for learning and doing new things that provide you with a stronger sense that you’re truly living, not just doing, performing, or surviving. There could be a new person or perspective that excites you or that renews your spirit. Adventures that take your mind or body away from the usual routine or the “ordinary” are favored now and in the coming weeks. A new person in your life, or an established friend or partner, may awaken an interest or desire within you, and could encourage you to reach beyond your normal limits and experiences.
