New Moon 12: 47 pm
Moon Sign: Scorpio
Scorpio: Increases awareness of psychic power. Precipitates psychic crises and ends connections thoroughly. People tend to brood and become secretive.
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 integrity. Nevertheless, the relentless Scorpio New Moon at 12:47 pm EST urges us to express what’s in our hearts. Lucky Jupiter’s supportive sextile to the New Moon puts a positive spin on nearly any conversation started now. Don’t withdraw; when in doubt, discuss what’s on your mind.
Aries Horoscope Mar 21 – Apr 19
You can’t help but raise issues that everyone else would rather avoid today. 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, the perceptive Scorpio New Moon falls in your 8th House of Metamorphosis, inspiring you to see the conversation through to a successful conclusion.
Taurus Horoscope Apr 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 now 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 – Jun 20
Making simple modifications to your daily routine may be the smartest thing you can do today, 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 now than making one dramatic gesture.
Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 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, the evocative Scorpio New Moon returns to fire 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 Jul 23 – Aug 22
Your feelings could be at odds with your actions today. You might choose to withhold your desires and just smile your way through the day, 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 now, 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 – Sep 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 today. 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 Sep 23 – Oct 22
You’re holding onto a very well-kept secret today, 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 now 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 today 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 today 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 now. Trust your intuition to know when the time is right.
Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19
You can engage people with calculated precision today, as if you are playing a competitive game of chess. However, your ideas may be more fixed now 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 now that 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 – Mar 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.
This is an excellent day for review of all kinds, dear Aries, and perhaps some research as you prepare for a new cycle that begins tomorrow with a New Moon. A Mercury-Pluto connection encourages useful insight into business or financial matters, as well as strategy in general for achieving important goals. It can also give you a real sense that you can work on emotional matters successfully, conquer fears, and put a hampering problem behind you. There can be an intimate moment today that opens you up to new possibilities and that inspires you. For some, it’s about sharing a bit of yourself with someone you love. Work matters can be especially fruitful now, and you might see areas that you can improve that will bring rewards going forward. You may be making important changes and edits that leave you feeling prouder of what you do.
Taurus
Taurus
Today is strong for honing in on areas of waste or neglect, dear Taurus, with a plan to turn them around. It can also be a time for gaining new insight into a person you care about or a relationship’s dynamics. You can make a good connection through, or feel supported by, a partner, friend, or in-law. It’s a strong time in your life for warm, positive energy with others, and for creative activities or entertainment that allow you to express yourself in new ways. Friendly gestures and communications from others lift your spirits to new heights, or you might decide to be the one to reach out to others, finding joy in inspiring or motivating others. A New Moon will occur tomorrow in your opposing sign, bringing nice energy for starting fresh in a relationship. Today, observe others and listen to your own heart for clues as to where you might want to head, whether this is toward or with a relationship.
Gemini
Gemini
This is a strong time for seeing something more clearly, dear Gemini, or for gaining new insight into your work, business, family affairs, or health, dear Gemini. The Moon is Balsamic, making today better for reflection than new beginnings, but it’s an excellent time to get to a better understanding of your own needs and for getting a better handle on your responsibilities. This is an important day for seeing what is no longer good for you, whether that’s an attitude, a project, a habit, or possibly even a habit. There can also be important information coming in about work possibilities or your present job, and you might be projecting an especially positive message about your skills and abilities. You can send a positive message about your own competence and skills. Opportunities to work from home, to reorganize and improve your home life, or to make your daily affairs a little easier, may pop up now. Enjoy yourself and express your affections for the people you love.
Cancer
Cancer
You can gain new insight into a partner, love interest, or relationship itself today, dear Cancer. There can be a pleasantly intimate feel to the morning, which suits you just fine! Conversations with a partner, romantic interest, and children are especially good and helpful today. Creatively speaking, it’s a time for seeing things more clearly and for feeling things more deeply, but also for expressing yourself with power and positivity. You have the ability to create a pleasing balance between fun and work. Particularly later today, you can enjoy a good feeling of growth in your connections. You might also be inclined to flirting or more serious expressions of affection. With a New Moon occurring tomorrow, today is better for reflecting and tying up loose ends, however, than for entirely new endeavors. Take the time to see what needs to go and what you want to bring forward with you in the new cycle ahead.
Leo
Leo
A mystery may be solved this morning, dear Leo, or a conversation occurs that provides the missing puzzle piece. It’s a good time to sort out your work or home space and get into a more organized head space as well. Focus should be on what needs to be left behind, dropped, and wrapped up – those things you don’t need to bring forward with you. There is good energy for projecting a sunny, warm disposition. Fulfillment comes through attention to family matters and personal possessions, and feelings of support derived from your closest connections. You might enjoy especially warm relations with family, and take great comfort in the security that comes with it. Don’t be afraid to get creative about family, money, home, and business matters, but save brand new beginnings for after the New Moon that occurs tomorrow.
Virgo
Virgo
Your insight is strong today, dear Virgo, so that you can get to the bottom of an issue that was previously baffling. Relationships with children can also be enhanced today. Conversations cut to the chase. As the day moves forward, a spirit of openness emerges and grows. This can open up doors to you for self-expression. It’s a strong day for all things social, and there might be a revealing conversation, a piece of good news, or new information coming in that makes you happy. Your connections with others, including siblings, acquaintances, and classmates, can grow by leaps and bounds. Establishing trust can be successful now. Keep in mind that there is a New Moon tomorrow, making today strong for reflection and letting go rather than brand new launches or endeavors.
Libra
Libra
Insights about your money situation or business today can help you to reach for new goals after the wonderful energy of the New Moon tomorrow, dear Libra. You are especially insightful when it comes to how to make your life more secure and comfortable, and what attitudes or projects may be better off left behind you in order to make room and space for new ones to enter your life. While you’re a little more retiring than usual, some networking or socializing today could bring financial tips or money-making ideas or simply a boost in mood. There is a gentle, positive touch to your manner, particularly as the day progresses, and this can help you to gain trust. It’s also a little easier than usual to see the bright side of things now.
Scorpio
Scorpio
This is the day before a New Moon that will occur in your sign, dear Scorpio, and this is typically a time for laying low, resting, thinking, and letting go. It’s important to clear out space, emotionally and perhaps literally if your surroundings could use a clean up, so as to invite the “new” into your life. Today’s energies are a little busier than usual, but not so stimulating that you won’t have time to think about new goals and aspirations. In fact, a pleasing aspect between Mercury and your ruler, Pluto, this morning can encourage you to dig a little deeper for ideas. It’s a great influence for seeing your priorities. As the day moves forward, the Sun in your sign harmonizes with optimistic, generous Jupiter, and this encourages making connections and improving friendships. You may be gaining someone’s trust, clearing the air, and feeling better for it.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
There is nice energy for tying up loose ends today, dear Sagittarius, and for making peace with the past, for several astrological reasons. The Sun and Mercury are both in your sector of karma, the past, and privacy, and both bodies get help from growth-oriented bodies – Jupiter and Pluto, respectively. As well, today’s Balsamic Moon lends beautiful energy for releasing, purging, and letting go of those things you no longer need. New insight into past matters can come now, and may lead you to very important conclusions. While you may not be especially accessible today as you can be quite wrapped up in your thoughts, you nevertheless have a warm glow to you. You might reach out to others in order to help. An open hand, a generous spirit, and integrity are key ingredients to your success on social and practical levels today. Rest, heal, and reflect today for best results!
Capricorn
Capricorn
This can be a wonderful time in your life for teaching, learning, and sharing, dear Capricorn. Friendships are in strong focus, and so are team efforts, group associations, community goals, and long-term plans that excite and motivate you for the future. You are thinking in innovative ways, and this will help you to maximize the potential of tomorrow’s New Moon. Today, you need to also look to the present and past in order to see what you may need to let go or put aside in order to make room for new energy coming in. A new insight into a friendship, or even a business deal or long-term plan, can be had now. There could be special ease felt with others. Educational, travel, and other mind-expanding activities can thrive, or opportunities for these things can present themselves in the coming weeks. Now is a good time to learn about your deeper needs and desires so that goal-setting in the coming week will be a true reflection of what’s in your heart.
Aquarius
Aquarius
There is more power to your communications, dear Aquarius, and generally an inability to escape attention today! This can be a very strong day to discuss professional and business-related matters with a trusted authority, mull over life path goals on your own, as well as to brainstorm and come up with solutions with others. The image you project now and in the coming weeks is important to your overall progress. Tomorrow’s New Moon sets you on a new path as you redefine your goals or plump out the details of current plans. Today, it’s more appropriate to learn your heart in order to know what’s best for you, or what to strive towards going forward. You can have a good sense that whatever leaves your life now is no longer necessary. Some of you could gain support from a surprising or hidden source, and most should enjoy favorable attention from both superiors and peers.
Pisces
Pisces
This is a good time for coming to a greater understanding of a recent problem or setback, dear Pisces. This is a good time for friendships, networking, making connections, and partnering or negotiating matters. Others can be integral to goals that involve learning new things and even a new trade, gaining exciting experiences, publishing, traveling, teaching, or learning – all themes that are emphasized in the coming weeks with a New Moon about to occur in the sector of your solar chart that rules these things. The common denominator here is broadening your horizons. This is a time for expanding a business, idea, or relationship, and for taking something to new heights. Today, take in all that you can. Information can surface that helps you, or this may be about becoming inspired to alter your path. For some of you, there may be a shared adventure or new experience occurring soon that enlivens your relationships.

The Moon continues to transit your partnership sector until an hour before day’s end, dear Aries, and you are relationship-focused, amiable, and accommodating. A friendly aspect between the Sun and Chiron can further ease your relationships, lending a nice feeling of encouragement to the day. There is a sense that you can learn and grow through your interactions. This influence serves to lighten your mood and give you the perspective you need. Resolving conflicts is easier, and intimate conversations can now serve to reinforce and reward. You might strengthen a relationship through shows of support and compassion. An emotional encounter can be heart-warming and offer you valuable insights into your life. If someone’s making you feel claustrophobic later today, when you may be second-guessing things, it’s a sign that you might be giving up too much for the sake of peace and at the expense of your own inner happiness.
Taurus
Taurus
While you can be quite focused on your daily affairs and practical matters today, dear Taurus, there is strong energy with you for relating. You might get to know someone better through their opinions and ideas, and your amazing listening skills. There is pleasing, humble energy to your social life, and this feels especially good to you. You are supportive and others tend to support and respect you, or give you the space and encouragement to be yourself. This can also be a good time for making a new connection or for boosting a current relationship with acceptance. Later today, the mood could change, and it’s important to try not to second-guess things. Recognize a need for change rather than feeling that others are caging you in.
Gemini
Gemini
While you’re certainly in the mood for some fun today, dear Gemini, there is also good energy for work and health. There may even be some recognition for what you do, particularly as you are remaining humble as you produce and perform! There can also be an opportunity to learn a new method or you could come into some useful information that helps you get the job done more effectively. Listen to wise counsel today – it may in fact lead to a boost in your health and well-being. It feels good when others value your helpfulness or the services you provide, and this is likely today. While there can be a somewhat jagged or hectic pace at times today, you’re seeing the bigger picture and are more able than usual to hone in on your priorities.
Cancer
Cancer
This is a good time for creative activities, dear Cancer, and for natural self-expression. You can feel especially free to be yourself, to explore new ideas, and to share a bit of yourself, or simply your good mood, with others. You are appreciated for your unique qualities and not afraid to express them. You are not afraid to be different, and not going out of your way to be, either. There can be especially honest and open exchanges, in fact, and you can play a role in helping someone to heal and move forward. Your unique vision or personal philosophy can be recognized and enjoyed now. The latter part of the day can introduce some surprises, largely work-related or having to do with responsibilities, but try not fret about these.
Leo
Leo
This can be a busy day, but pleasantly so, dear Leo. You may be feeling especially “at home” wherever you are – comfortable with others and especially in your own skin with the Sun and Chiron in harmony and energizing your sectors of feeling. Family matters tend to support your mood, and your intuition runs wonderfully high. You are also especially intuitive, able to feel out what others may need and reading signals well. Whether you are trying to or not, you are drawing others’ attention and making a strong personal impact. In fact, it may be understatement that works best for you now. The day can be hectic later today, and you may be torn between venturing out or getting the rest you need.
Virgo
Virgo
This is a good day for learning, studying, communicating, and negotiating, dear Virgo. You are listening and sharing equally, which makes you an especially good conversationalist now. You are likely to receive favorable, positive responses to your ideas or plans. Make time for others. Your persuasive powers are in good form, but today is more about getting to know others and picking up helpful information. Your understanding of others is tremendous, and this helps endear you to them. It’s a strong day for putting your energy into your work and projects. However, if you’ve been doing too much, you’ll feel the resultant tension later today. Fortunately, it’s relatively easy to get back into a positive and determined frame of mind.
Libra
Libra
You are unlikely to be looking for recognition or appreciation explicitly today, dear Libra, but you’re likely to receive it. Sometimes what we don’t do is as important as what we do, and today, the simpler and more genuine, the better. Work or business can come together nicely now. Solutions to problems today won’t come if forced or overanalyzed – you’re best off focusing what you need to do at a gentle pace. Later today, there may be some tension in your interactions – a temporary disruption likely having to do with a need for change that is not yet acknowledged. Recognizing this is the most important step towards resolving problems now. Even with some surprise elements to the day, this is a nice period for resolving conflicts generally speaking, and tomorrow, more healing energy should arrive.
Scorpio
Scorpio
While you may need to deal with scheduling problems or tension from surprise elements that disrupt your routines today, dear Scorpio, this is a strong day for getting a real grip on your life. You’re magnetic and attracting wonderful feedback and some admiration. Even if the admiration is from a distance, you’re likely to feel it energizing you. It’s not everyday that we are acknowledged, and of course it’s important to learn how to create our own happiness when feedback is negative or indifferent. However, it feels good to get the boost now and again. Personal relations should be good now, and expressing yourself and your ideas more freely is part of this. A humble approach is the most becoming today. You might be a mentor of sorts right now, guiding someone to a better mental space. The Moon moves into your sign in the last hour of the day, bringing emotional needs to the surface.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
There can be much to learn through a little meditation or introspection today, dear Sagittarius. There can be a feeling that you’re centered and supported now, and you are exploring your inner resources. This can be a wonderful time for helping others as well, even if it’s about listening and acknowledging. Reflection can be especially good now, as there is a tendency for the ego to take a backseat, which frees you up to connect with your true feelings. In this way, you might come to a better understanding of why something happened in your past. It’s also a good time to speak to someone you trust, as there is more openness and receptivity, at least in the first half of the day. A hurried pace later on could disrupt the flow temporarily.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Personal energy is flowing smoothly today, dear Capricorn. There is a natural, organic flow of conversation and ideas now that is gently inspiring and motivating. Your words or ideas can find a receptive, approving audience. In fact, you may even help someone get through a rough patch, or inspire someone with your attention and advice. There can also be increased confidence in cherished dreams and plans of a personal or social nature, and if you want to share these with others, support is generally forthcoming. Today’s energies generally favor a gentle approach, although there can be some tendency for a hectic pace later today, and possibly a minor conflict between the need to attend to family or personal matters and the desire to keep other connections and relationships alive. Even so, it’s relatively easy to focus your mind as the day draws to a close.
Aquarius
Aquarius
This is a strong day for getting a good sense of what you truly value on practical and professional levels, dear Aquarius, and also good for financial judgment. Your close relationships and partnerships can get a boost as well, particularly with an open and humble approach. You are both learning and guiding now, and others tend to be treating you respectfully or giving you the space to breathe and do your thing. You are also in a fine position to demonstrate or employ your natural talents or know-how. Focus on the unique elements that you bring to your work and your partnerships, and watch as you attract the right resources and people to you. The desire to talk, share your experiences, and open up to others may be strong. Later today, be a little more alert to the words you choose to express yourself. You may be stirring up a bit of controversy.
Pisces
Pisces
This can be a warm, vital day, dear Pisces, in which your unique manner is found to be especially endearing. There can be a guiding/learning theme today, and openness that leads to improvement and growth. Sharing ideas and personal philosophies can be bonding and rewarding now. You are especially drawn to people who are open-minded and tolerant, and there is optimism in your approach. The Moon continues to transit your solar eighth until the last hour of the day, when it moves into your adventure sector. By the 11th, the Sun and Moon will meet in this area of your solar chart, and you’ll find the motivation and energy to broaden your horizons in important ways, perhaps through publishing or promotional efforts, travel, or studying. For now, it’s a wonderful time to explore your own need for fresh experiences and ideas.

Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 22
A New Moon in your romance sector on Wednesday has great potential. If you’re single, use the two weeks following this lunation to circulate more and increase your odds of meeting someone special. You’re likely to fall for the strong and silent type now … the deep and mysterious person who is trying to get lost in the crowd rather than stand out. Getting to know this person might be your main priority and if so, you’re not likely to be disappointed.
Leo Horoscope Jul 23 – Aug 22
You already have the grace to communicate with your mate thanks to Venus moving into your message sector last week. This week, on Thursday, you’ll also gain the courage to discuss any situation that you previously felt anxious or intimidated about. Mars will join the same area of your chart as Venus, and will remain there until January 3. You will not shy away from talking about anything. On Friday you’ll even notice that you and your partner can make an important decision effortlessly.
Virgo Horoscope Aug 23 – Sep 22
An intense discussion with your sweetheart on Tuesday might lead to a positive turning point in your relationship. The two of you might both be wondering exactly where this romance is going. Although you might not reach a solid definition just yet, one thing will become clear: You’re both invested in seeing exactly where the road leads. Another plus is that you’ll both be more interested in talking about what really matters this week, rather than superficial matters. As a result, your bond will only grow stronger.
Libra Horoscope Sep 23 – Oct 22
You’re already the “fairest of them all” these days thanks to Venus moving through your sign since last week. This week, you’ll also become the sexiest of them all! Be sure to thank Mars for this honor. On Thursday he’ll enter Libra and will remain in your sign until January 3.

In many ways, this is your week. A New Moon on Wednesday will fall in your sign, allowing you to create an important fresh start in just about any area of your life you choose. If it happens to be your love life you’re looking to change, you’re in luck. This lunation will be at a gorgeous angle to Neptune, the planet of inspiration, now in your romance sector. A soul mate might be closer than you think. Manifest it.
Sagittarius Horoscope Nov 22 – Dec 21
A New Moon in Scorpio this Wednesday might have more of an effect on your intimate life than you think. It will fall in your private 12th house — the area of your chart connected to deep anxieties, and where we tend to sabotage ourselves due to insecurity or blind spots. Since Scorpio is all about deep intimacy, you’ll now have an opportunity to face one of your most crushing fears or worries connected to getting as close as possible with someone special. Be brave.
Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19
If you’re looking to jumpstart your social life, you’re in luck. This Wednesday a New Moon will fall in your 11th House of Groups and Friends. If you’ve been neglecting your personal life in favor of career pursuits, you might realize that you’re now a bit lonely. Romance might also have eluded you because you’re usually so busy prioritizing work. No worries! Now, you’ll have more invitations and opportunities to enjoy time with friends. Take them — it might lead to you meeting someone quite captivating.
Aquarius Horoscope Jan 20 – Feb 18
If you’re single and looking to meet someone special, your prospects look quite interesting these days. Last week love planet Venus entered the part of your chart connected to mind expansion and internationalism. This suggests that you might meet someone new through a learning endeavor (college campus for example), through international travel, or even meet someone who is from another part of the world. This Thursday action planet Mars joins the same part of your chart in relationship Libra. This might trigger a meeting.
Pisces Horoscope Feb 19 – Mar 20
If you’re in a relationship, there’s a lot happening these days around joint finances as well as the more intimate physical and psychological depths of your love connection. This week, it’s possible that you and your mate will gain the courage to work through a situation that you both have tried hard to sweep under the rug in the past. This approach is not serving you well. In fact, it’s only eroding the trust you have in each other. Fortunately, you’ll both feel motivated to fix it. Get to work!

Observances, Traditions, and Lore for Every Day of the Year
Selena Eilidh Ash
The morning is good for doing the more creative side of your work or for organizing your space, dear Aries. By late morning, you’ll be much more focused on your social life or relationships, or less inclined to want to go things alone. Nevertheless, you do know the value of getting practical things done today – you simply may want to pair up with someone to do so. In fact, you might also do your best reflecting with a partner or good friend today.
Taurus
Taurus
You’re moving towards a more practical, work-oriented trend, dear Taurus. The good news is that the major influences that are enlivening your romantic and creative worlds are sticking around for many more months. Right now, a small shift is occurring that starts today and continues this week, as you begin to pay more attention to your daily routines and habits. Work can figure strongly, although it’s not about harder work just yet, and more about enjoying and appreciating that your daily habits and routines carry you far. Later today is particularly good for looking into health and wellness programs or ideas, and exploring what you might do to make the most of the coming weeks’ focus. Improving your habits and health should be the goal now, and thankfully, you’re beginning to feel in the right frame of mind for it.
Gemini
Gemini
There has been quite a bit of attention to your personal and domestic life recently, dear Gemini, and some keeping to yourself as well. This is in fact an overarching theme in some way for many months to come, but in the short term, you’re beginning to come out of your shell, and this begins today and increases as the month progresses. Add finishing touches or special attention to a family matter or home project this morning. However, by late morning, there is a growing need to mingle, reach out, share, and express your affections. There is good energy later today for constructive conversations or activities with a partner or friend.
Cancer
Cancer
You have been enjoying extra motivation and animation in the world of connections, communications, and learning, dear Cancer. While this is in fact a long-term trend in many ways, some of the immediate excitement is set to settle down as Venus moves into your family sector, and then Mars follows suit on Thursday. Today, the quick-moving Moon moves similarly, giving you a nice preview of what’s to come. Get any exciting, creative work or studies done by late morning if you can. Later today, you’re more inclined to follow the rules and stick with traditional or tried and true methods. Focus turns to matters of security and familiarity now. You need some time to recenter yourself, and you’re likely to get it.
Leo
Leo
The morning is quite lovely for both your social life and attention to business, dear Leo. The Moon aligns with Venus in your resources sector for the last time before Venus moves into the next sector (tomorrow). Take advantage with something luxurious or special for yourself. The next Venus cycle is excellent for your people skills and for finding added enjoyment in your studies or personal interests. The Moon moves into your communications sector late morning, and this provides you a good chance to feel out your needs for connecting, getting around, and pursuing your mental interests. As the day moves forward, you are speaking with authority and may get to some important conclusions. It’s a fine time to teach or guide others.
Virgo
Virgo
The Moon aligns with Venus and Mars in your sign this morning, dear Virgo, before moving on to your solar second house. With Venus spending its last full day in Virgo, take advantage of the emotional currents that favor attention to your personal needs and wants. And, when the Moon enters your sector of resources, give some considerate thought to what you want to achieve in terms of making your life more secure and comfortable. With Venus soon moving into this same sector, you’ll be especially magnetic in this respect, and also quite desirous. You may get some nice support from family, or personal space to tend to your domestic needs, later today.
Libra
Libra
The Moon continues to pull your attention to the past and to mental health until late morning, dear Libra. The morning is good for considering attitudes and situations that need to change or that need to be put behind you. With the Moon’s move into your sign, the need to connect with others more directly can emerge. Thankfully, you’ll get some super help in this respect with Venus moving into your sign tomorrow. The weeks ahead are likely to be livelier for you. People will be taking special note of you, and you’re less likely to blend in with the background – a fine situation when you need the rest, but you’re becoming quite ready to stand out in your signature gracious way. Later today is good for constructive conversations.
Scorpio
Scorpio
This morning brings good energy for networking and creative teamwork, dear Scorpio. You’re in a long-term trend that supports special connections made this way, but in the short term, Venus and Mars are heading towards a stay in your privacy and soul sector (tomorrow and the 12th, respectively), and the Moon moves here late morning today, prompting some need to keep challenging or demanding people and situations at bay. You may need to withdraw a little from the mainstream in order to recenter yourself. Later today is strong in this regard. Rather than becoming lost in a sea of emotions, you are able to connect with your feelings and stay very much anchored in the present.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Career and life path matters will continue to be in focus for many months to come, dear Sagittarius, but in the short term, you’re moving towards a more sociable trend. Today, the Moon echoes this transition, as it starts out highlighting your responsibilities and goal-oriented activities and thoughts, and then by late morning, attracts your attention to networking, friendships, and connecting with your happiness goals. Subtly, you’ll feel a change of emotional orientation as you move through this day, and it can feel quite good. Later today, someone may be leaning on you for support or strength, and you are especially obliging.
Capricorn
Capricorn
There has been strong focus on life experience and learning recently, dear Capricorn, but you’re slowly moving towards emphasis on practical application. Today’s energies may act as a bit of a preview of this upcoming energy, as you begin the day ready to take on something exciting or adventurous, and then segue into a more practical frame of mind. The second half of the day is strong for drawing upon past experience and using it in the “real world”. You can find it rather natural and easy to drum up support if you need it.
Aquarius
Aquarius
You are heading towards a particularly optimistic, exploratory trend, dear Aquarius, and today you could begin to sense and feel this transition. You may begin the day on a rather insular note, and then by late morning, you begin to crave the non-routine and a little more excitement in your life. This move is not always as easy and intuitive as it seems it would be. There can be a little resistance as you move from emotionally dark to light, or some emotional sun-blindedness, after which you could feel a little restless if you don’t have a clear plan. However, as the day moves forward, you’re likely to embrace a change. You feel that you’re on solid ground and that life is getting a little more engaging.
Pisces
Pisces
Energies this morning are good for socializing and collaboration, dear Pisces. As the day moves forward, you become a little more serious (in a good way) and focus on emotional and practical priorities. There can be a nice feeling of equilibrium as your emotional needs seem to be in balance with the demands of the outside world. You’re interested in making things run more smoothly, and you’re looking at the important details that need attention in this regard. There is a stronger sense of what is good for you rather than simply what you want or think you need.
You are picking up more information than usual through observation these days. This is the work of Mercury in your solar eighth house, as it inclines you to look before you speak or draw conclusions, and to look for layers and levels to a problem or situation. With a Mercury-Neptune influence today, dear Aries, it’s a good time to look at ideas and interactions in a different way, perhaps with a little more compassion or imagination. Your thinking is creative, particularly when it comes to matters of the past, intimate relationships, and your own inner workings. You may be able to see a different level of someone you care about or gain better understanding of your own motivations. This can be a time when you’re fascinated with a mystery or given to wondering and musing.
Taurus
Taurus
You are coming across well in your one-on-one relationships these days, dear Taurus, and today this is emphasized, largely due to a boost of compassion, intuition, and imagination to your thoughts, perceptions, and conversations. Your ability to see the other side of the coin is strengthened with Mercury in your partnership sector, and today Neptune is connecting with Mercury, adding insight and warmth to the mix. You might be connecting with people through your perceptiveness and open mind now, in either platonic or love relationships. Be accepting and tolerant now in order to let all of the good things in. The Moon transits your romance and creativity sector all day, and this stimulates a creative approach to your day.
Gemini
Gemini
These days, you’re looking at the details more than you are concerned with overview or big picture thinking, dear Gemini, and this is helpful for tasks that involve sorting, organizing, and editing. Today, Mercury connects with Neptune, adding imagination and compassion to the mix. If you face perplexing problems, be sure to take a step back from them, as intuition is more likely to kick in if you do so. In fact, some very creative ideas can come to you now, particularly related to work and/or health. People may not fully get you, but they are flowing with you and attracted to you. This can be an especially contemplative and imaginative – even inspiring – day.
Cancer
Cancer
Allow yourself some freedom to dream, imagine, and create today, dear Cancer. There is wonderful energy for imaginative expression now. Your tastes, and even your conversations or art work, can have an exotic flavor. You might be looking at your love life through a different lens, and romantic sensibilities are strong. You might be able to talk yourself into or out of something now, quite successfully! If you are able to be both hopeful about the future and happy in the present, then you are in especially good shape. Fantasy that doesn’t take away color from the moment is truly the most helpful. You can enjoy interesting conversations or musings now.
Leo
Leo
This is a time for appealing to your own, and others’, sense of wonder and feelings of compassion, dear Leo, with Mercury in harmony with Neptune. You might be intrigued by a mystery that begs unraveling, or you might enjoy entertainment that engages your emotions and imagination. It’s a good time for stepping back from the regular routine and letting your imagination go. You may be releasing negative feelings about a relationship today, or at least working on doing so. Conversations tend to be more sympathetic now. You’re presenting your ideas a little more creatively than usual, and you can be an engaging speaker or writer, although perhaps not as focused on facts and figures.
Virgo
Virgo
Sometimes differences in values, taste, or style can disrupt relationships, dear Virgo, but today, they actually add something to your interactions. Acceptance is strong now, and you may very well learn from different viewpoints and perspectives, as well as inspire others with yours. Imaginative activities and thinking can be themes, and today is about connecting to others on a completely different level, forgiving, accepting, and letting go of stress and negative emotion. The Moon is in your sign all day, bringing emotional needs to the forefront. You are also far more noticeable for your personality than you are on other days.
Libra
Libra
Today, you could be in an especially sharing, generous mood, dear Libra, and it can be a good time to try to let go of possessive feelings. Imaginative and creative impulses increase today, although it’s more on a mental level than it has to do with physical activity, so you could find yourself dreaming up all sorts of way to enjoy yourself! Listen to hunches and ideas that seem to come up out of the blue. If you can, avoid work or chores that require a lot of focus or attention to detail, and instead focus on ideas and overviews for best results. Allow yourself some breathing room for freeform thinking.
Scorpio
Scorpio
This is a day that favors creative expression, dear Scorpio, and it’s also quite wonderful for connecting with others imaginatively. Conversations can be uplifting, and fantasies or musings are positive, lighting up your higher mind and opening up new possibilities. Important messages communicated over the phone or through texts or chat may not fare as well as in-person ones, as there are many subtleties and nuances that are delivering your messages today. You are persuasive and taking things in stride, all adding to your personal appeal.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
The day may not have a clear mission, dear Sagittarius, but it may not need one with Mercury and Neptune in harmony and stimulating your need to color outside the lines. You are seeking out slightly out of the ordinary or colorful connections, ideas, and experiences. Some of you may be reminiscing about the past and enjoying your memories. It’s a good time for letting bygones be bygones, especially with family. You might see others in a more positive light, or in a more human light, seeing beauty in weakness or imperfections. You might help someone out with your advice or simply through listening and acknowledging.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Today is strong for looking at relationships, ideas, and problems from a different perspective, dear Capricorn, and quite possibly one that is especially sensitive, accepting, and understanding. It can be a good time to be or have a confidante. Your dreams are inspiring, or information coming in can inspire you. While attention to detail is not especially favored today, you’re certainly making up for it with imagination and creativity. There is some tendency to avoid unpleasant work or tasks, but it’s a strong day for entertaining new ideas, dreams, and possibilities.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Today is more about hunches and inspiration than it is about the details or the facts and figures, dear Aquarius. Intuition is easier to access today for business ideas, particularly the more creative ones. Recent ideas can begin to come together, or you see the missing links now. Your own communications are received well today, and it’s more about the delivery or approach (soft sell) than the content. Interactions with others are a little kinder, gentler, and possibly inspiring, and your insight can add another dimension to a connection.
Pisces
Pisces
This is a day that favors imagination and creative flourishes, dear Pisces. Your ruler, Neptune, in your sign is harmonizing with Mercury, creating a good atmosphere for using your imagination and accessing your intuition. This is also a strong time for reaching out to others, sharing ideas or a unique perspective, entertaining new ideologies, and learning something new. You might come to an agreement with a partner or good friend, or connect intuitively with a special person in your life. You could be motivated to give voice to topics that are important to you. that may have been difficult to talk about recently.
The Balance of the Elements & the Signs for Friday, November 6th
VIRGO STRONG
Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.
SCORPIO STRONG
Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
BALANCE OF MODES
CARDINAL WEAK
This is not a time that we tend to naturally initiate actions. We may be stronger at following up than starting anew. Survival mechanisms may be weaker now.
MUTABLE STRONG
We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.
Although we know what is correct in our hearts, circumstances make it difficult to communicate our position today. The detail-oriented Virgo Moon urges us to separate the bad data from the good. However, our minds create their own distractions as an eye-opening aspect between expansive Jupiter and fast-acting Uranus brings intellectual breakthroughs. Nevertheless, our individual needs might be shunted aside for the collective good of the community.
Aries Horoscope Mar 21 – Apr 19
No matter what you hope to do today, work-related tasks demand your undivided attention until the job is complete. This ambitious commitment may sound like bad news, but doing your chores could turn out to be a pleasant experience if you don’t put up a fight. Keep your eye on the final goal, regardless of whatever delightful distractions pop up. Just think of it as an endurance test from the universe. If you stay focused on the finish line, you’ll cross it with flying colors. Rewards are sweeter when you sweat for them.
Taurus Horoscope Apr 20 – May 20
Whatever concerns surface today may not be as daunting as they seem at first. Ultimately, the current pressure is not great enough to prompt a significant life change, but you still might have to jump through a few hoops to move things along. Thankfully, once you get the ball rolling, progress becomes easier as the day wears on. Surprisingly, you could even have time for a playful diversion. Keep your productivity on target by avoiding extreme reactions. Balancing your energy maximizes your potential.
Gemini Horoscope May 21 – Jun 20
Even if your thoughts are running amok now, this is a perfect chance to set clear priorities and consciously focus on what’s most important. Your emotions may be entangled with those of close family members, but something unexpected could pull you away from your plans at home today. Although responsibilities are calling from all directions, you can still reconnect with the ones you love later on in the evening. There’s nothing wrong with admitting that home is where your heart is happiest.
Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 22
There is so much going on at work that it is nearly impossible to reestablish balance to your daily routine. Fortunately, you can feel a subtle but significant shift in the energy today. Even if you don’t yet fully understand where the current trajectory is heading, at least recognize that you can’t tie yourself to the status quo any longer. Don’t be too calculating as you plan your future or you’ll end up outsmarting yourself. Follow the flow; your life is changing and you need to change with it.
Leo Horoscope Jul 23 – Aug 22
You might be worrying about your long-term financial condition for not-so-obvious reasons. Although your mind is on your money today, chances are that your current anxiety is a reflection of a deeper concern you are harboring about your life goals. Thankfully, a little self-examination will set the record straight. What do you consider valuable? Where do you see yourself in five years? What’s on your bucket list? The more you envision the future now, the more you realize how much work there is to do in the present moment.
Virgo Horoscope Aug 23 – Sep 22
Relationships are the source of confusion today if you impulsively act on your feelings. You might be suddenly confronted with the fact that everyone doesn’t necessarily share the same level of interest as you. Don’t push for resolution to prove a point; solutions may remain elusive for a while longer. Take as much time as you need to listen to the whispers of your heart and decipher the clues in your dreams. Don’t grow complacent; be ready to run with your answer when you find it.
Libra Horoscope Sep 23 – Oct 22
Turning your brilliant ideas into action is tricky now, but it’s not because anyone wants to see you fail. Instead, it’s your own indecisiveness that stymies your progress. Although you may have ongoing issues about making timely decisions, this is one choice you’re actually better off postponing today because you don’t have the objective perspective you need. Give it a few days and then make up your mind. It might look like procrastination to the rest of the world, but you know it’s all about strategic timing.
Scorpio Horoscope Oct 23 – Nov 21
Fight the impulse to be overly vague when you ask for what you need today. Even if the stars don’t grant your every wish, you can still end up closer to getting what you want. Exploring the possibility that you’re missing something crucial to the big picture inspires you to dig deeper. Look within and you can transform uncertainty into specificity but you won’t find your answers immediately. In the meantime, your willingness to be truly authentic with those you love is appreciated more than you know.
Sagittarius Horoscope Nov 22 – Dec 21
Your naturally cheerful disposition normally opens doors for you, but your exuberance could work against you today. It’s unrealistic to expect others to take you seriously when you’re busy breaking out the party favors and cracking jokes. It’s wonderful to play the master of ceremonies whenever possible, but now you can’t leave the practical matters behind until they are fully addressed. Surprise everyone with your willingness to work hard, and then dazzle them with your brilliance.
Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19
Your attention to detail is admirable today, but you could grow so obsessed with gathering more facts that you lose track of your original goal. You might believe that possessing the right piece of information now can empower you to overcome nearly any obstacle. However, you may be sorely disappointed if you become so fascinated with the pixels that you no longer see the big picture. Change your perspective by taking a few steps back and then boldly recreate your vision of the future from your new vantage point.
Aquarius Horoscope Jan 20 – Feb 18
Although everything might seem a little off center today, you remain hopeful that the tension will dissipate on its own. There’s not quite enough conflict for you to initiate any major changes in your life now. But there is just the right amount of free-floating anxiety to encourage you to assume a self-protective posture. Don’t let down your guard or you could court disaster. Thankfully, your clever ability of staying one step ahead of everyone else will surely pay off in the days ahead.
Pisces Horoscope Feb 19 – Mar 20
Struggling with the fine distinctions between fact and fiction takes up most of your energy today. Even with your natural proclivity toward fantasy, you can usually tell what’s real when push comes to shove. However, it’s nearly impossible to know what to trust now. Dream big while delaying major decisions for a few more days. Although your judgment may be temporarily clouded, your imagination is more vivid than ever. Keep dipping into the deep waters since that’s where the buried treasure is hidden.
While the day is certainly good for entertaining, creative, and expressive activities with the Moon in playful Leo until tonight, dear Aries, there is also good energy for applying yourself to researching an idea or project. You can apply rationality and practical thought to normally emotional or sensitive matters. This can be a day in which people who you were previously trying to get in touch with are now available. Tonight, you’ll feel like doing catch-up work if you’ve been putting off priorities. Even so, there can be some tendency to rebel against any extra work you’ve recently taken on as you consider that you may need a little more space for spontaneous explorations.
Taurus
Taurus
This week, an aspect between Jupiter in your recreation sector and Uranus in your privacy sector can call up some questions about freedom and enjoyment, dear Taurus, particularly if you’ve been overzealous in the pursuit of pleasure. While this is an important time for you to explore and express your creativity and to allow your inner child the chance to come out and play, if you overdo this to the point that other life departments begin to suffer, you’ll need to wrestle with guilt or other feelings of discomfort. For some, issues from the past can interfere with a present relationship. The solution is to simplify your life and divide your attention more evenly. Today, there is strong energy for constructive conversation. If you have a problem to handle, seek out a trusted partner or friend. This is also a good time to show a friend or partner your more reliable side.
Gemini
Gemini
This is a strong day for applying yourself to work or research, dear Gemini, and for a certain flair with communications. You’re finding answers that previously eluded you, showing your commitment to the work you do or services you provide, and possibly tying up loose ends on an important project. Having a firm grip on your priorities helps you to focus on what’s most essential, but you’re also tuned in to fancy details and design elements as well. This week, however, there can be awareness of areas of excess in your life, particularly related to attention spent to personal and domestic matters. If you’re juggling too much, you might start to feel a call for more spontaneous activities or need for friends.
Cancer
Cancer
There can be continued focus on practical affairs and matters of comfort and security today, dear Cancer. However, it’s also a strong day for expressing yourself creatively, learning something new, and studying or editing. You might even discover opportunities to turn a personal hobby or plan into something that makes money for you or opens doors to other professional opportunities. Alternatively, this can be about putting a natural talent to better use. This week, questions of freedom can be on our minds, however, with Jupiter and Uranus connecting in a somewhat challenging way. For you, if you’ve taken on too many personal projects or interests, you could find that this impacts your attention to responsibilities or professional goals. Look for ways to divide your attention in a more balanced way, even if this means cutting back on certain activities. Otherwise, the activities that you enjoy most can eventually feel burdensome.
Leo
Leo
The Moon continues to transit your sign until tonight, dear Leo, and today, forms few connections with the planets. This can lead to a sense that you can make what you want of the day, although you could feel especially self-focused. There is good energy today for study and research, so if you need to prepare for a presentation or interview, there is strong support for this now. This week, Jupiter and Uranus form a quincunx aspect, and this can present a dilemma when it comes to funding your adventures, travels, or education for some. For others, if you’ve taken on too many business projects or commitments, as much as you’re enjoying them, you could feel the need to free up some time for new or broader experiences and spontaneous activities. You’ll figure out a solution to this as you go along, but do consider ways to make room for both practical application and experimentation.
Virgo
Virgo
This is a potentially excellent day for collaborating with someone to solve a problem or move a project to a new level, dear Virgo. It can also be strong for showing your appreciation for someone’s loyalty and help, which can deepen a bond. You tend to often go it alone these days, and it’s a strong exercise in confidence that you need and that is very good for you, but there are days such as these that your connection to others figures strongly and warmly. This week, a Jupiter-Uranus quincunx can serve as a checkpoint if you’ve recently taken on too much. You may need to simplify before excess in one area of life begins detrimentally affecting other life “departments”. Freedom is especially important to you these days, so make the space for spontaneity.
Libra
Libra
There can be special attention to developing your skills or increasing your knowledge today, dear Libra, and much potential for success. The focus now tends to be on practical skills and know-how. On another level, a Jupiter-Uranus quincunx coming exact this week serves as an important reminder that even with the things we love and enjoy, if we go overboard, we can end up restricting ourselves in other areas of life. Look for ways to better balance your life. For some of you, your increased need for solitude, time alone, or time to think, can be affecting a relationship. While a quincunx aspect often gives us a feeling that we have to make a choice between one thing or the other, there is in fact a way to find a compromise, even if the route to this is not yet obvious.
Scorpio
Scorpio
People are lining up for your ideas – you seem to have an especially strong sense of current and future trends these days, dear Scorpio, and practical insight as well. There is special style in how you are presenting your ideas and communicating your message, as well as a real willingness to back things up with hard work. If you’ve been taking on too many projects or spending a little too much time networking and socializing recently, however, you could begin to feel a little restless now. With Jupiter and Uranus forming a quincunx, you might discover that too much of even a good, enjoyable thing can eventually feel burdensome or wasteful. Make some time for yourself and for life’s unexpected moments, and be sure that work and health matters get their due attention. This way, you’ll be in a better position to grab opportunities when they arise.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Yesterday, your ruler, Jupiter, opposed Chiron, and now Jupiter moves towards an awkward aspect with Uranus. This serves as another checkpoint when it comes to expanding your goals, reach, or projects. Consider your need to “play” freely from time to time – to act on impulses, to do something fun or creative spontaneously. If you are filling up your life too full of projects, even if they are thoroughly exciting, you’ll end up feeling too burdened or overwhelmed. That’s what this Jupiter-Uranus energy is about. It’s a reminder that we can’t overload our lives and handle sudden changes of plans or life’s unexpected twists easily. Keep some time in your life free. There is good energy tonight for solving an emotional or family problem logically and effectively.
Capricorn
Capricorn
This is an excellent day for sharing practical ideas with friends, dear Capricorn, or for sorting out a problem for or with a friend. You can really get to the heart of a matter, and you’re demonstrating just how reliable and helpful you can be. Even so, there can be some restlessness experienced today and on some level all week if you feel overwhelmed with things to do or choices to make. You’ll need to make some time for freeform activities and leisure – times when you can let loose your more spontaneous inclinations or adventurous side – otherwise even your more enjoyable projects could end up feeling burdensome. Consider needs for freedom this week, and you’ll do especially well.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Today and this week, if you’ve taken on too many projects, interests, or responsibilities, you might begin to feel these things impinging on your freedom, dear Aquarius. The answer may be to simplify or cut back on something, even if this is not the easiest choice. Be delicate when it comes to handling tricky topics now, and investigate a proposition or plan thoroughly before investing your time and energy into it. Watch for restlessness that leads to imprecise or sloppy communications. Otherwise, today is very strong for throwing yourself into a practical project or for learning new methods that help you master your work or daily routines. The trick now is to narrow your focus to one particular task and do it well.
Pisces
Pisces
Slow and steady wins the race today, dear Pisces. Today and tomorrow, you’ll really benefit if you move in slowly towards your goals or into conversations, rather than rushing in. It’s a good time for looking to areas that need adjusting or perfecting. Build upon your skills, do editing work, and express your commitment to a goal, your work, or a project by focusing on it rather than only talking about it. You are especially inclined to pay attention to details and to approach things logically right now. Partnerships get extra attention towards the end of the day, as your focus turns a little more sociable, but differences in approaches or values may temporarily interfere with harmony. Perhaps your own earnings becomes an issue with a partner for some of you this week. Find ways to either separate partnership and business, or aim to share as much as possible with someone close to you in order they gain more understanding of your goals.
