We start the day wearing practical shoes and trade them in for a pair of swim fins when the Moon swims into watery Pisces at 5:05 pm EDT. We may be motivated to demonstrate how efficiently we work because energetic Mars hooks up with pragmatic Saturn while the Moon is still in inventive Aquarius. However, answers are not difficult to find if we are inspired to reach beyond our normal conceptual limits and into the far reaches of our imaginations.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You’re wary of trusting your feelings now, since a rational approach to life makes the most sense. You might even try to rebel against what you already know in your heart. It’s not that you don’t want a more emotionally charged life, it’s just that you aren’t interested in giving up on your dream of stability. Nevertheless, you won’t be able to deny your desires, so stop trying to justify your inaction because you’re afraid of losing control. Indulge your heart without going too far.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might be quite confident now as you gain momentum on a project that was recently set aside. Perhaps each moment has you dreaming about making your life more pleasant. However, caution is advised, since you could push hard only to find that you’re reaching for the wrong star. But if you take a deep breath and pay careful attention to what you’re feeling in your gut, you could actually catch a glimpse of your new direction.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Something shifts energetically today and suddenly you just know what you need to do. Unfortunately, your moment of awareness doesn’t necessarily translate into sustainable action. Although you may be back at work or school now, you might not feel very motivated. Try to avoid becoming too indifferent about what you want, for it is your passion that will ultimately bring you closer to your dreams.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Anticipating a change of direction means that you must also shift the focus of your thoughts. You might think that you’re ready for new adventures, but you could also inadvertently push them away out of fear. It feels as if your entire life is moving too fast now, and that the pace is just beyond your control. You won’t be able to keep up with everything if you continue to hold onto the past. Fortunately, it’s much easier to handle the current intensity once you let go and embrace the future.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your emotions grow more extreme throughout the day and there appears to be no way to escape the looming storm. Thankfully, you won’t be scared off by a little relationship drama if it helps you to recall something very important from your forgotten past. Remembering an old story can boost your current motivation and inspire you to make an overdue change. There’s no time like the present to take charge of your life.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are rejuvenated by a fresh surge of energy that washes through your life today. Unfortunately, it can be quite a challenge to figure out which way to turn. Seeking counsel from your friends or associates may not help you make a decision because your agenda is so different from theirs. Nevertheless, someone else’s perspective still gives you a different way to look at the same old thing. At least, another point of view provides an objective frame of reference

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You don’t want everyone to notice you today, yet, paradoxically, you may be thinking about what you want to share with others. Unexpressed fear isn’t the only thing holding you back now. You also need to establish a daily routine so that doing your chores or homework won’t stand between you and your greater aspirations. Even if you are unsure of your destination, practice trusting your intuition. Your inner voice won’t let you down.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Being your same-old reliable self today is challenging if your daydreams distract you from what you must do. It’s not that you’re incapable of hard work; it’s just that you might have lost your edge as your motivation dwindled. It’s wise to push yourself now by getting others involved in your cause. Setting up a few appointments or meetings makes it harder for you to procrastinate. Once you’re finished with your tasks, give yourself permission to spend some time with your dreams.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might not be ready to return to work today. If you’re feeling restless, you may even want to hightail it out of the office and take some time off. Although you have a lot on your plate now, you could talk yourself into believing that your co-workers can, somehow, get the job done without you. Unfortunately, nothing much is accomplished without your effort and expertise, so find a healthy balance between productivity and relaxation to make everyone happy.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You don’t want to sit still today because you’re jumping up and down with an excitement that just won’t settle down. You might be tempted to hide your enthusiasm because you’re not interested in destabilizing your life. But your aversion to risky behavior that shows your vulnerability can actually block your intent to get closer to someone you admire now. Take advantage of your energetic buzz and let your guard down.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Settling back into an old relationship dynamic might seem like a great idea today. However, it’s still wiser to try to push through the resistance and make the necessary changes in your plans for the future. You could try to justify your overall safe approach to life right now, but tense aspects won’t likely let you get away with taking the easy way out. Make up your mind to move forward and then get busy creating the future you want.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You want everyone to know how you are feeling today because you think that being transparent will make you less lonely. Ironically, you may be scared to reveal too much about yourself. However, the Moon’s visit to your sign draws your emotions up toward the surface where you can’t help but wear them on your sleeve. The choice is yours; you could make someone else unhappy with your sad song or you could make it better by changing your tune.
