The moon spends most of the day in Gemini again before entering sensitive Cancer in the evening. But while yesterday the moon found support in the sun and Jupiter, it now runs into tension with Saturn, Venus, and Mercury, all in Pisces. This could make you feel lonely today — and the more isolated you feel, the more likely you are to lash out, alienate the people you love, and generally make poor relationship decisions. Try not to let your worst feelings dictate your day: Things aren’t as bad as they seem.
Aries Daily Horoscope
You aren’t someone who’s easily intimidated — you won’t balk from confrontation where a situation warrants it. If anything, conflict often feels rewarding; it means that you’re taking action. Today, though, while you might feel vaguely stressed, you’ll probably struggle to identify its source. It might be tempting to pin the blame on someone, anyone — but try to resist. Picking a fight might seem rewarding in the moment, but it won’t actually solve your problems; for now, at least, you’ll be better off getting through the day as peacefully as you can.
Taurus Daily Horoscope
You might be quick to grow irritated with your friends today — especially if they make choices that are, at least from your perspective, the wrong ones.It can feel like a personal affront when nobody follows through on your smart and reasonable advice; you wish they’d just listen to your input and save themselves all the trouble. Today, though, try to recognize that people have to learn lessons on their own schedule. It’s not your job to tell your friends what to do, but to be there for them.
Gemini Daily Horoscope
It’s going to be incredibly easy to spin discouraging stories about yourself today. If you make a tiny mistake, you’ll see it as evidence that you don’t have what it takes to make it; if you start to question a past decision, you’ll see that as a sign that you’re on the wrong path. But try to take a step back and see yourself with a bit more clarity. As convincing as your negative takes sound, they don’t actually align with reality: You’ve had plenty of successes in the past and you will again, too.
Cancer Daily Horoscope
You’ve been feeling pessimistic recently, perhaps more than usual. When you express this, the people in your life often encourage you to change your mindset and tap into some hidden reserve of optimism — but today, your job isn’t to manufacture a sense of hope. Rather, it’s to figure out how to keep going in spite of your pessimism. You can find meaning and enact meaningful change in your life — and you don’t need to force any positivity to do so. You only need to act.
Leo Daily Horoscope
When your contributions go unrecognized, you start to wonder whether the reason is that you just haven’t given enough yet. Yes, you’ve worked hard — but if you worked harder still, then maybe the people around you would sit up and take notice. But today, resist the impulse to give everything you have and then some — especially for the sake of people who have shown no sign that they’ll ever fully appreciate you. If you continue to give without getting anything in return, you’ll only end up resentful; you’ve got your limits, so be mindful of them.
Virgo Daily Horoscope
Everyone seems hypercritical today, picking apart your every move — at least, that’s how it might feel to you. In reality, though, there’s a good chance that you’re overblowing it. Remember that there’s a difference between nitpicking and good-faith criticism, and when others offer you the latter, try to take it in the spirit it was intended. Most of all, though, do your best to be more generous with yourself. You can’t force other people to be gentler, but you can summon it in and for yourself.
Libra Daily Horoscope
Lately, you’ve been worried that you’re wasting your time on things that don’t matter. You imagine that you should be laser-focused on your goals, but instead you’re messing around with your friends, trying new things that don’t ultimately pan out. But today, trying to force efficiency will only make matters worse: You won’t accomplish much more than you would otherwise, and you’ll be extra stressed while you do it. Instead, give yourself permission to be unproductive. If you take a break from worrying about it today, you’ll be back at it and refreshed tomorrow.
Scorpio Daily Horoscope
You like it when people are a little mysterious — it’s a thrill to be forced to dig deeper and put in some actual effort to get to know people. Sometimes, though, it seems like no one else is willing to put in that same effort to get to know you, and today, you might start to feel resentful of that. But just because you don’t notice others putting in the work, that doesn’t mean they aren’t trying, so do your best to give people the benefit of the doubt.
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
Today, you probably feel torn about what your next steps in life should be — part of you finds it unbearably stressful to consider stepping outside of your comfort zone, but another part of you is bored and disillusioned by everything within its bounds. You’re hungry for adventure, but you also long for safety and security. Your challenge is to strike a balance — to take slow , measured steps into the unknown, or to find ways to liven up your everyday life.
Capricorn Daily Horoscope
You’re full of ideas today, but you’re probably also quick to identify problems in all of them — which probably tempts you to toss them out entirely. But be careful not to reject new possibilities too quickly: Not every flaw is a dealbreaker, and you’ll never find a course of action without points of weakness. So for now, don’t reject any of your ideas outright. You might not end up moving forward with them, but keep as many doors open as you can.
Aquarius Daily Horoscope
You know that you have things to offer, but you’ve been struggling to figure out how, in a practical sense, to contribute. Today, make sure you’re involving other people in your brainstorming. What you need now is support, people who will listen to your ideas, offer feedback, and won’t hesitate to tell you when you’re on the wrong track. Instead of waiting for help to arrive on its own, be brave and ask for it.
Pisces Daily Horoscope
When life gets stressful, part of you wants to run away; lately, especially, you’ve felt exhausted and ill-equipped to handle challenges. Sometimes, when you feel this way, it can be useful to step away from it all so that you can rest and recharge. But the more you avoid doing the things that scare you, the scarier they become. Today, rebuild your confidence by facing your fears. You’re more capable than you give yourself credit for, you might simply need a reminder.
