Horoscopes
Aries
The Sun and Jupiter are moving towards their annual alignment, inspiring a fresh, new feeling today, dear Aries. Nevertheless, today brings responsible and ambitious energy that suits a focus on current priorities. You’re more invested in your image and larger life goals, but the usual pressure that seems to go along with these things is thankfully absent today. This frees you up to tap into and successfully draw upon experience, wisdom, and intuition to get ahead or closer to your goals. This may be a time for a bit of recognition that fuels your motivation further. You’ll want to go all in with whatever you commit to now.
Taurus
You may be sensing you’re on the verge of something important in your social life and close relationships, dear Taurus. Connecting with others, particularly through your interests and ideas, can be fruitful now. You’re in good stead for most things educational, travel, mind-expanding, and exotic right now. You’re especially interested in the feedback you receive from a partner as it jumpstarts your thinking processes, whether you agree or disagree! Today and tomorrow, you can feel as if you’re being lifted out of a slumber on an emotional level, but things still feel new, and you’re not sure where you’re headed just yet. Certain approaches, attitudes, or conditions are fading out as you instinctively move into a new phase of your life socially.
Gemini
Today and tomorrow, you may well enjoy a small challenge or mystery, dear Gemini, as you’re intrigued by what’s typically out of focus, hidden, or unacknowledged. The Moon is a guest in your intimacy sector, and whatever you’re taking on right now, you want it to be intense or absorbing. This may be about relationships or projects and interests. You’ll take a pass on light interactions that are normally right up your alley. You may be pulling yourself, quite happily, in fact, out of your regular activities and into your inner world. The Sun and Jupiter are about to meet in your work and health sector, and while everything is a little new at the moment, you’re likely to observe and sense something exciting and unexplored along these lines emerging for you.
Cancer
You’re anxious to create a sense of balance and peace with others and your personal environment today with the Moon in your partnership sector, dear Cancer, and you have cosmic support for doing so. The trick with this position is to maintain a strong sense of identity while you attend to the needs of others so that you don’t feel resentful when inevitable imbalances become clear. There is good energy for pairing up and sharing ideas or ideals. We’re heading towards a Sun-Jupiter influence that can lead to a feeling of renewed hope or enthusiasm for matters of the heart and creative affairs. Today is good for a bit of validation from people in your life. Interactions flow nicely. Someone’s perspective, even if it diverges from yours significantly, tends to enhance your own.
Leo
We’re approaching a Sun-Jupiter alignment that brings fresh, new energy to your personal life, Leo. Today is also useful for getting your work and health routines in order. You’ll find it easier than usual to resolve problems or, at the very least, to see the right way towards solutions. Things seem to come together with family, work, and even research. You’re feeling some desire to improve essential habits and daily routines, and while this sometimes comes as a package deal along with pressure, today you’re simply happy to get going. Open communication with a relative or intimate partner can help center you and relieve your mind regarding some of your troubles or concerns, primarily those related to health and work. Today and tomorrow are lovely for a refreshed feeling.
Virgo
With gentle motivation to improve your life, you’re in great shape for increased energy, primarily fueled by inspiration, Virgo. Creating something and sharing it with others — or sharing your good humor — can be satisfying ways of expressing yourself with the Moon in your solar fifth house harmonizing with your sign today. The ease with which you communicate your inner child today helps others loosen up, too. Romantic feelings can also be stirred now, more than usual. This is a healthy day for exploring creative avenues of expression or for expressing your affections and discovering satisfying outlets for enjoying yourself. Pay close attention to news and conversations that might point you in the right direction now with the Sun and Jupiter moving into an alignment. This week, a new idea, study, or interest is born.
Libra
This is a time for losing yourself in your home or inner world, dear Libra, in a totally lovely way. You prefer to keep a low profile today, and this is just fine with the Moon in the lowest part of your solar chart today and tomorrow. You’re seeking a sense of being rooted, safe, and secure now, and you would do well for yourself by lapping this up as it’s a great time of the lunar month to find your emotional center. It can be quite healing to unwind or simply take a break from mental busy-ness now by concentrating on self-nurture and comforting or familiar activities. Tomorrow’s Sun-Jupiter alignment stimulates a sense of newness with money, talents, and business.
Scorpio
You’re feeling particularly refreshed now, dear Scorpio. Tomorrow, the Sun aligns with Jupiter in your sign, and new ideas and fresh starts emerge. Today and tomorrow, the Moon spends time in your communications sector, and with Juno and Pluto there, your words, advice, and opinions have quite the impact (and power)! You’re a natural leader now, but you can also benefit from teaming up right now. This is a day in which you’re mainly engaged, alert, observant, and curious. You’re inclined to go a little too far, and it makes sense to think about problems if thinking increases your understanding, but to stop there. Beyond that point, you’re not doing yourself or others any favors! Pay special attention to anything that seems to be fading away as a new direction forms.
Sagittarius
The hectic pace of your schedule is beginning to slow, dear Sagittarius, in a very good way. As your load lightens, so does your mood, and this changes everything! Mind you, today can be productive and practical. You can be moved to check into your business or money matters and make sure everything’s running smoothly. You have recently begun a cycle in which you’re awakening to the benefits of alone time, peace, rest, healing, and relaxation, and today and tomorrow can stir events and situations that push that journey forward. You’re likely to feel that you’re on the verge of something wonderful. You’re also very drawn to the pleasures and comforts of the physical world today.
Capricorn
With the Moon in your sign all day today and tomorrow, dear Capricorn, emotions are stirred, but if you handle this blast of personal energy well, it’s a wonderfully refreshing time. This is reinforced by the Sun and Jupiter moving into alignment and beginning a new cycle of achievement and fulfillment. You believe in yourself and your endeavors now, even if you don’t entirely know where you’re headed with it all just yet! You’re likely to find comfortable, natural channels for expressing and validating your feelings. Your good humor and wisdom can be important resources today. New directions are in store, particularly on social levels.
Aquarius
Today, you benefit from looking back before moving forward, dear Aquarius. The Moon spends today and tomorrow in your privacy sector, and you’re more inclined to tune into and listen to your intuition. You’re working in the background or working behind the scenes at this time in the lunar cycle, and it suits you and your purposes well. This helps take some of the outside pressures off, and if it doesn’t happen naturally, it’s a good idea to pull back just a tad for perspective. This is the perfect couple of days to take extra time for yourself, look within for answers, and tap into your inner world. The Sun and Jupiter are moving into alignment, and new insight into business, reputation, or work — or possibly a brand new direction altogether — is just around the corner.
Pisces
This is the time in the lunar cycle when your social life fares well, Pisces, and if you need to unwind after busy days, it’s the time to do so. The Moon is a guest in your pressure-free solar eleventh house, and your focus tends to shift away from responsibilities and towards the situations, ideas, and people that/who make you feel you belong to something bigger than yourself. Natural energy is with you for socializing and for experiencing new situations. In fact, a Sun-Jupiter alignment approaches, and this can mean a dysfunctional attitude or condition is fading away to make room for a positive new direction. Pay special attention to possible new interests and topics that inspire you.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
BALANCE OF SIGNS
LIBRA STRONG
Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental.
SCORPIO STRONG
Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.
CAPRICORN STRONG
Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
WATER STRONG
We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality.
BALANCE OF MODES
The modes are balanced.
LUNAR PHASE: CRESCENT
Moon 45 to 90 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an eager, impulsive, and progressive time. We are motivated and ready to take on challenges.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on October 25th:
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).
