Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Your humanitarian impulses are active and strong today, dear Aries, and you can feel particularly hopeful about new plans and what’s on the horizon. This is due to a Moon-Uranus connection that encourages you to seek out like-minded people or friends who accept you for who you are. Relationships tend to fare well, particularly with patience. Even so, a Jupiter-Saturn minor challenge reminds you to be realistic, and especially with Jupiter now retrograde, growth should be steady for it to stick. Refining current projects, particularly related to your career or work, makes the most sense now.
Taurus
The Moon is in your sector of reputation, status, and career all day, dear Taurus, and you quite readily take the lead, preferring to fill your responsibilities first. The Moon connects with Uranus, stimulating new or unique approaches to what you’re doing. With a Jupiter-Saturn aspect that’s been in play since December, however, you may be reconsidering a long-term goal or dealing with something that you overlooked in order to clear the path for moving forward. It’s not the time to give up on a project just because it’s slowing down or taking too long, but to attend to duties that will help clear up delays and set the ball rolling to make progress. Slow and steady wins the race now. Relationships may also be settling in.
Gemini
Today, you’re likely to be in a philosophical mood, dear Gemini, or inclined to look at the big picture rather than the details. This allows you the chance to envision where you’re headed, and although the smaller steps you need to take towards your goals are important, a reminder of the vision helps keep you motivated. However, a Jupiter-Saturn aspect that first came into our lives in December and is now strong again suggests a need to go slowly with a work or health initiative. This will help you get back on track. Checkpoints such as this one are useful in the long run.
Cancer
Emotionally today, you’re gravitating towards deep, satisfying conversations and experiences, dear Cancer, with the Moon in your solar eighth house all day. You’re in a good position for connecting with upper-level people today, as well. You’re in good touch with your intuition regarding your direction, path, or career, and you’re in a good place concerning your image or reputation. However, a Jupiter-Saturn aspect active today points to the need to pace yourself in areas where you’ve been going too fast or pushing too far, particularly related to relationships and creative projects. This influence first entered our lives in December and will finish in September.
Leo
A Jupiter-Saturn transit that first formed in December comes together exactly again today, dear Leo, and this influence reminds us of the need to pace ourselves. Last week, Jupiter’s retrograde turn nudged us in this direction, and events this week will drive home the point: slow but steady wins the race. Overdoing even a good thing can spoil matters, and this can specifically relate to your home and work. Today, your energy levels might not be up to par, and you could have a tough time making a solid decision. However, you’re quite fine with giving the floor up to someone else for the time being. Activities seem to be better in twos today!
Virgo
You might benefit from looking to the past for answers to problems in the present, dear Virgo. This is a time for making edits and refinements instead of pushing forward too eagerly. In some ways, this may even be a comforting thought since you’ve been particularly excited about your current projects but perhaps taking on a little too much. Pacing yourself works best now, and it feels right. The Moon transits your work and health sector all day, and you’re likely to feel emotionally satisfied only once you’ve handled your duties. You’re not doing things in rigid or boring ways today, and this helps spruce up your routines.
Libra
The Moon is in your playful solar fifth house all day, dear Libra, encouraging you to let go of recent tension and maintain good humor, finding a nice balance between work and play. This is especially useful now with a Jupiter-Saturn influence also active that insists we pace ourselves. For you, this is most appropriate in areas of finances, business, and home life. Last week, Jupiter’s retrograde encouraged a look back before moving forward with business and money matters. Now, events or circumstances seem to remind you that it’s best to edit, refine, and cover all your bases than to push forward too eagerly or take on new projects.
Scorpio
The Moon transits your home and family sector all day, dear Scorpio, favoring familial relationships and domestic activities. Work at home — or on the home — can be satisfying now. You’re bringing new ideas to problem areas. Also today, Jupiter in your sign faces an obstacle, forming a minor challenging aspect with Saturn and reminding you that sometimes you need to slow down and make adjustments to make progress later. This aspect first formed in December and will form again in September. These exact aspects can act as reminders, but certain cautions are active throughout the period — the message is: pace yourself. Now that Jupiter is retrograde, it’s especially important to take things slow and steady. If enthusiasm dampens a little, know that it’s temporary.
Sagittarius
It would be appropriate to conserve your energy, observe, and strategize now, dear Sagittarius. Your ruler, Jupiter, forms a minor but challenging aspect to Saturn today, and this can serve as a reminder to slow down. There may be a delay to deal with or an apparent backward step in a pursuit. This aspect first formed exactly in December and will perfect again in September for the last time. Editing and refining are appropriate now, and in fact, will serve you very well! The Moon spends the day in your communications sector, and you’re curious about what’s going on around you, as well as ready to make adjustments or reach out and connect with others. Particularly as the day advances, you’ll be seeing possibilities more than flaws, which lifts your spirits.
Capricorn
The Moon spends another day in your resources sector, dear Capricorn, and you’re in good shape for taking care of business. You have particularly inventive and progressive ideas regarding your home or family life these days, and this is very much the case today, too. Also now, you may experience a dilemma between whether to enlist help or go solo on a matter. Alternatively, it’s a time for recognizing where your extracurricular activities may be getting in the way of your goals. Your best bet will be to find ways to satisfy both your needs for companionship and self-reliance rather than feel you have to choose one or the other. This time period favors a go-slow approach.
Aquarius
The Moon spends another day in your sign, dear Aquarius. Your mood is excellent and your mindset is positive. You’re communicating especially well. People thoroughly enjoy your company these days, even more than usual. A Jupiter-Saturn semi-square exact today reminds you of the limitations of a particular goal or initiative, however. There can be a sense that you have to go back to the drawing board on a decision or plan. Paying attention to details and doing editing work –or simply slowing things down — can be useful strategies now.
Pisces
The Moon spends another day in your privacy sector, dear Pisces, encouraging you to take things easy and keep a low profile just for now. This is not the only reason to pull back a little from things: a Jupiter-Saturn influence challenges you to keep things real and avoid pushing the limits. This aspect first formed in December and will perfect for the last time in September. As well, we’re only a few days away from the New Moon that will occur in your sign, sparking new plans and new beginnings. Winding down makes sense in preparation for this. Today’s energies feel cautious overall, making it a good time to go slowly and to avoid taking on brand new initiatives.

BALANCE OF MODES

LUNAR PHASE: BALSAMIC
Moon less than 45 degrees behind the Sun.
Time to tie up loose ends, review, reflect, let go, and edit.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on March 14th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
