Aries (March 21 to April 20)
Whereas yesterday, when your thoughts and emotions could have been more intense, there’s an opportunity today, as the Moon arcs towards the vibrant Jupiter, to view things in a different light. It may be that a heart-to-heart with someone close over the weekend can also help you to gain a different perspective, but in a positive way. It will feel good to move on. Head here for everything you need to know about being an Aries.
Taurus (April 21 to May 21)
Jupiter has been helping you over the last nine months to think about things in different ways, and also to gain additional knowledge, but also to share your great ideas too. And today, it could be really joyful to share your insights with someone in a way that can help them too. Close relationships can seem less on edge today, and with a greater sense of mutual give and take. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Taurus.
Gemini (May 22 to June 21)
Over the last few days, you’ve been able to appreciate the solid citizens in your world, but there is still a feeling that new and more exciting opportunities can open up for you. And yet what you can do is blend this optimism today with some practicality, particularly when you’re considering resources or any ways or ideas you have to improve your financial situation. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Gemini.
Cancer (June 22 to July 23)
You’ve been given food for thought about managing your time, particularly as there seems to be quite a few competing considerations. But one thing you can feel today with the Moon in the warm and affectionate part of your chart and her link back to the supportive Jupiter in your sign, is a sense that whatever path you choose, you will be supported and protected.

Leo (July 24 to August 23)
The newly arrived Venus and Uranus in the most social of sectors are going to bring some sparkle and effervescence to your interactions in times to come. But today, it could be just a moment of connection or deeper thought that helps you to understand something that may have just been holding you back a little bit for some while, and that can feel really uplifting. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Leo.
Virgo (August 24 to September 23)
Radical Uranus is pushing you to step outside your comfort zone, shake things up, and approach your connection to the wider world in a fresh and exciting way. But it’s your timeless ability to analyze and structure information in a practical way which can impress someone you encounter today, along with your can-do attitude, and cheerful friendliness.

Libra (September 24 to October 23)
Even if you are working within a budget, there’s going to be part of you that may want to squeeze from that some kind of extra slice of enjoyment or treat. This could be something relatively inexpensive, but after quite a period of being very disciplined, a much more liberated side of you needs to come out, which may see you snaffle something more lush. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Libra.
Scorpio (October 24 to November 22)
Whilst you may have been considering some relationship dynamics yesterday, and you could still be processing these, you can just feel much more carefree today as the Moon in your sign forges a lovely link with the exuberant Jupiter, which is exalted in its current home in your fellow water sign of Cancer. This combination is perfect for feeling more happy-go-lucky. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Scorpio.
Sagittarius (November 23 to December 21)
There’s a wonderful sparkle in the part of your chart that sees you connect to others, but particularly those people who are not only charismatic but also genuine and relatable. So why have you been working through some sensitive thoughts over the last 24 hours? Well, the Moon is in the tenderest part of her journey, but is more supported today, as you’ll be too. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Sagittarius.
Capricorn (December 22 to January 21)
Last June, when the fortune bringer Jupiter returned to your sector of relating for the first time in many years, you may have hoped that significant developments around relationships would follow, and they may have done. It’s just that, ironically, your ruler, Saturn, inhibited his potential, but not so today, when a friendly, perhaps even flirty conversation, can add uplift. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Capricorn.
Aquarius (January 22 to February 19)
There’s an unfair archetype about Water Bearers that you must be quirky and out there. And yet, the chances are, if this is within you, it will start to come through increasingly in the months to come, now that your modern ruler is in such a playful, mischievous location. But you can use that sense of fun to adjust and adapt to even tricky work-life issues, as today can show. Head here for everything you need to know about being an Aquarius.
Pisces (February 20 to March 20)
Yesterday may have coincided with some more intense discussions or conversations. This may have led to something being pushed into the open. And now it’s been ventilated, you can start to see things in a different way and release whatever it was that was occupying your emotions. Indeed, more novel ways of dealing with home and family issues will become a theme. Head here for everything you need to know about being a Pisces.
