As the moon moves through smart and independent Sagittarius today, the best thing you can do is stay focused on the big picture. As important as the details are, it’s equally as important to not get lost in the weeds. Especially in the morning, as the moon makes contact with the Aquarius sun, resolve to take charge of your attention: You get to decide how you’ll use your mental energy and who you want to give your time to.
Aries Daily Horoscope
There are plenty of reasons not to have faith in other people. So many of them consistently prove themselves to be cowardly, lazy, or mean; they may say all the right things, but when it comes time to put their money where their mouth is, they always seem to let you down. It’s valid to view everyone with skepticism, but that doesn’t mean it’s useful. The people in your life are imperfect, but try to believe that they’re mostly doing their best. If you want to connect, be loved, or work together productively, then try to get past your distrust — or at least, set it aside for now.
Taurus Daily Horoscope
Part of you might feel like it’s futile to make long-term plans; the world’s changing too quickly, and you don’t trust that the ground will remain solid beneath you. It’s better, you imagine, to take each day as it comes. But don’t leave the future entirely up to chance. You need goals to work toward, things to look forward to. Even if they don’t turn out exactly the way you hoped, making plans and then doing your best to see them through will help you maintain your sense of purpose.
Gemini Daily Horoscope
It’s important to get enough time to yourself — but right now, alone time might only make you feel lonely. You want to be around people, make them laugh, see things from their strange, surprising points of view. If you wait for social opportunities to come to you today, you might not get them; take a more active role in seeking out what you need. Call your friends, show up to events, get out of your house and into the world.
Cancer Daily Horoscope
If a project you’re working on — or life in general — is frustrating you lately, it might be because you’re going about it at the wrong pace. Whether you’re rushing to keep up with an ambitious schedule, or slowing yourself down to accommodate somebody else, you aren’t moving at the right speed for you. If you’re feeling rushed today, slow down. If you’re antsy to pick up the pace, then go for it. There are times when it’s best to match your rhythm to the people around you, but right now it’s better to do what feels right for yourself.
Leo Daily Horoscope
It’s often your closest relationships that are the most difficult. It’s easy to keep things simple with a casual acquaintance or someone you’re just getting to know, but when long histories and deeper feelings get involved, even small conflicts have the potential to escalate . If your closest relationships have felt strained or confusing lately, you might get a reprieve today. Remember what you like about each other, how lovely it can be to spend time in each other’s company. If you try, it’s possible to find your way back to solid ground.
Virgo Daily Horoscope
Today, it could become more apparent than ever how much your well-being is tied up in the happiness of those around you. In order to find success, you’ll need the help of your community; in order to feel secure, you’ll need a strong support system to fall back on. So for now, consider putting your personal projects on the back burner and investing some extra time in your relationships. Helping others will feel especially rewarding right now, not only because it’s the right thing to do, but also because it’ll set you up for success, too.
Libra Daily Horoscope
You might feel like you’re supposed to have all the answers already. Maybe others shame you for knowing less than they do, or maybe you put pressure on yourself, but either way, it’s an unreasonable standard to hold anyone to. Today, the best thing you can do is remember that everyone, including you, is still learning; you’ll never reach some endpoint where you can close your mind entirely. Ask questions, listen to other people, let your curiosity guide you. You don’t have to know it all, you just have to be willing to keep learning.
Scorpio Daily Horoscope
You might feel guilty for feeling depleted: So many people are experiencing much worse than you are, so what right do you have to be so exhausted? But today, try to be more generous. Holding yourself to unrealistic standards won’t make you a “better” person; if anything, it’ll make you more tired and less able to help others. If you expect yourself to transcend your needs for rest and support, you’re just setting yourself up to fail. Be generous where you can, but recognize when you’re at your limit.
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
You value courage highly; it’s important to you not to hide from challenges or run away from danger. You refuse to let anything or anyone intimidate you — at least, that’s the goal. The truth, of course, is that everyone is afraid of something. For now, take a break from acting invulnerable. Today, you may find that speaking your fears out loud doesn’t make you feel weak, but instead strengthens your resolve and prepares you to fight.
Capricorn Daily Horoscope
You might notice some tension today between what you’re supposed to do and what you want to do, between expectations of you and your personal values. While you’re not someone to disregard the rules as a matter of principle, there are times when it’s necessary to break them. But if you’re not willing or able to be outwardly rebellious today, remember that you can bend the rules, too. You don’t have to make a big show of being defiant; you can just calmly and quietly do what you know is right.
Aquarius Daily Horoscope
It can sometimes feel like you’re the only person who sees the world clearly — and therefore, that you’re the only one equipped to change it. Everyone else seems too distracted by tedious responsibilities, too constrained by meaningless rules. But nobody, not even you, can be totally self-sufficient; as much as others can be irritating and disappointing, you still need them. You can’t build the world you want alone, so today, seek out people — even just a trusted friend or two — to put your trust in.
Pisces Daily Horoscope
You know that you’re thoughtful and competent, that you’re good at what you do and fun to be around. But knowing it isn’t the same as feeling it, and even though you can tell it’s irrational, you sometimes fear you have no redeeming qualities at all. Today, though, all of that self-doubt will fade away, if only temporarily. You’ll be self-assured as you move through the world, and others will be drawn to you as a result. Make the most of your confidence and do something brave, something you’ve been avoiding.
