The Moon’s move through Taurus sextiles both Venus and Jupiter today, offering a kind of emotional steadiness that doesn’t demand resolution—just presence. That’s not the same thing as ease, but it is something you can work with. Mercury continues to hover near Mars, fueling conversation with intention (or impatience), while the Sun maintains trines to Chiron and Eris, pushing identity into uncomfortable but productive territory. Stargazer, this isn’t the kind of day that rushes toward answers. It asks you to notice what’s behind your reactions, what’s unsaid, and what still feels worth defending. Go slow, but don’t go numb. There’s something valuable in what you’re resisting. Let it speak.
Read your horoscope for the week, and see what the stars have in store for your sign today.
Aries: March 21 – April 19
Aries, today’s near sextile between Mercury and Mars puts communication at the center of everything. You may be ready to move, act, or decide—but the world won’t always meet you at your pace. Say what you mean clearly and without the extra edge. You’ll gain traction by keeping your message sharp, not your tone.
Taurus: April 20 – May 20
The Moon’s sextile to Venus brings a rare softness to the edges, Taurus. You’re better equipped to appreciate what’s around you without overanalyzing it. Let things feel good without assigning a task to that feeling. Being still doesn’t mean being stuck—it means you’re present. And today, that presence speaks louder than any plan you thought you had to follow.
Gemini: May 21 – June 20
There’s a difference between reacting and responding, Gemini—and today asks you to find it. With Mercury still near a sextile to Mars, your thoughts are moving fast, but that doesn’t mean you have to say everything out loud. Consider where your words land. A little patience goes a long way in helping your message actually stick.
Cancer: June 21 – July 22
There’s something grounding about today, Cancer, and it’s not an accident. The waning gibbous Moon sits in Taurus and forms supportive sextiles to both Venus and Jupiter, lighting up comfort zones you’ve maybe forgotten about. Lean into what feels familiar—but don’t retreat. Let warmth from the past meet optimism about the future. There’s softness to build on here.
Leo: July 23 – August 22
There’s a line between pride and healing today, Leo—and you’re the one holding the pen. The Sun continues its trine to Chiron and Eris, offering perspective on where old wounds still drive present expectations. You don’t have to keep proving strength by pretending it never hurt. Real courage looks like acknowledging what shaped you, then choosing something softer anyway.
Virgo: August 23 – September 22
The details aren’t the problem today, Virgo—it’s the temptation to perfect them past the point of usefulness. Mercury remains near a sextile to Mars, nudging you toward efficiency with a side of adrenaline. You can get a lot done, but be mindful of when productivity slips into self-punishment. The goal isn’t to fix everything. It’s to feel present in it.
Libra: September 23 – October 22
Today brings softness where you need it, Libra. The Moon’s sextile to your ruling planet, Venus, coaxes you back into your body, into comfort, into a version of ease that doesn’t have to be earned. You may crave reassurance, but don’t twist yourself to keep the peace. You’re allowed to want tenderness without bargaining for it. Let that be enough.
Scorpio: October 23 – November 21
Scorpio, you can feel when a narrative is falling apart—even if no one else is ready to admit it. Pluto’s square to Haumea digs at your sense of truth, especially where growth has felt forced or fake. Saturn and Neptune retrograde lend you insight, but also responsibility. If you know better now, show it. Move like someone who’s no longer pretending.
Sagittarius: November 22 – December 21
The Moon’s sextile to Jupiter brings a nudge toward expansion—internally or externally. There’s a natural momentum to today that doesn’t need to be forced. Sagittarius, you might feel your ideals sharpening or your need to grow getting louder. Don’t write it off as impatience. This is your ruler in sync with the Moon, reminding you what possibility feels like.
Capricorn: December 22 – January 19
Still tethered to its long-term sextile with Pluto retrograde and conjunction with Neptune retrograde, Saturn refuses to back down from its grip on the past. There’s a pressure to hold everything together, to make every move count. Capricorn, even you—stoic and self-sufficient—are allowed to pause. Let today be about trust, not just in others, but in the systems you’ve built to hold you.
Aquarius: January 20 – February 18
Not every day needs an astrological headline to be meaningful. With no major placements demanding your attention, there’s a rare openness in the air. Aquarius, this is where your sign thrives—in the in-between, the undefined, the unexpected left turn. You don’t need a green light from the planets to start rethinking the usual. Today asks nothing of you, which is exactly the point.
Pisces: February 19 – March 20
What if there’s nothing to fix today, Pisces? Neptune retrograde continues to sit with Saturn, pulling your imagination into confrontation with your limits—but not to punish you. This isn’t about finding a way out. It’s about honoring what you’ve learned from being in it. As a Pisces, you feel the weight of unspoken things. Just don’t forget: you’re allowed to rest.
