Aries (March 21 – April 20)
The Moon moves from the elegant Libra today to the intense sign of Scorpio and angles towards the modern ruler of that sign, Pluto. This suggests that when it comes to certain connections, your perceptions can deepen but also help you to see a situation in a more profound way. You can also become more aware of undercurrents at work from now on.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
One situation may have felt a little bit edgy, but with the Moon moving into the part of your scope that’s very much to do with balance, you’re given an opportunity to think again about what this was about. You may even reach out to someone who’s experienced to get their point of view and insight on this. If you have been feeling unsettled, however, this may increase.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
If home chores or obligations have been neglected, the Moon moving into your sector of practicalities is giving you a nudge to be more virtuous and catch up on these. Yet ironically, when it comes to other people’s demands, there can be a part of you that resists being deflected from what’s important to you. You’d be right not to do things just to keep the peace, Gemini.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
Trying to refine your work-life balance has featured strongly, but now you can think more about pleasurable and social strands and linking out to people that you’ve not been able to connect to. If you have children, their pursuits, interests, and talents can also be something that engages you over the next couple of days. This interlude may be the perfect tonic.
Leo (July 24 – August 23)
There is a lot of movement at the very top of your chart, Leo, that can prompt you to consider changes – but particularly around your connection to the world or professional interests. Yet with the Moon arriving in a more reflective part of your situation later today, you may prefer to think carefully about what your options are rather than actually take firm action.
Virgo (August 24 – September 23)
Your mind can get quicker and nimbler as the day goes on, but our thoughts don’t necessarily align with our emotions. And with the Moon entering the mysterious Scorpio, it’s important not to conflate the two. Yet with the Sun also brightly surfing through your sector of curiosity, there is a lot that can be intriguing or exciting you, particularly around travel plans.
Libra (September 24 – October 23)
It’s a rare Libra that doesn’t appreciate a little bit of lush, whether it’s some really delicious food or pampering yourself with some nice personal goodies. Today is a day you can really appreciate embracing such things. Involved? Being up close and personal feels that much more comforting and natural. Perhaps the only thing to watch is being a bit too spendthrift, Libra.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
The Moon transitions into your sign today, Scorpio, which can help you to feel less off balance and more in touch with your true needs. Still, she does go into a square with your modern ruler, Pluto and if there is a bit of a push-pull with someone close to you, a flat mate or a family member, that could show up. If so, try to flex as deflection may be your best bet.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
A conversation with a friend may have left you feeling uncertain. We don’t always interact in the smoothest and most harmonious of ways, but it doesn’t necessarily mean there’s any deeper issue. And yet you could find yourself wanting to just mull this over, and if something does come up that needs to be acted upon, might this be some previously unseen resentment?
Capricorn (December 22 – January 21)
With the Sun in the most vibrant part of your Solar horoscope, the potential to reinvigorate your social life or your long-term plans is very strong. And the Moon today can emphasise a particular friendship within this situation. But with your ruler, Saturn ruminating in a more cautious area, you can still find yourself a little bit guarded in your approach, understandably.
Aquarius (January 22 – February 19)
As today unfolds, so the Moon climbs to the very apex of your chart, and your feelings could seem to you to be much more obvious to others. Whether, in fact, people can view into your thoughts is another matter. But your personal perceptiveness is likely to be enhanced as she comes into contact with the planet of power, Pluto, in your sign. Little will miss your gaze.
Pisces (February 20 – March 20)
The day may begin with a little bit of an intense exchange, but that can just give you the motivation to move the moment and do something completely different. Whether it’s your choice of film, music, podcast, or book, such a diversion can prove to be the perfect tonic. Yet this escapism can also give you a desire to have a little bit of space from others.
