Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Tonight’s New Moon can serve to increase your awareness of the preciousness of life, dear Aries, and can lead you to a resolution to reach out more often to others and to take better care of yourself going forward. Now is an excellent time to think about plans to improve emotional health and wellness. You might decide to start a counseling program, pay particular attention to a significant person or project in your life, or work on gaining new independence from debilitating debts or attachments. It’s about the chance to start fresh, and it can stir up your need or desire for intimacy and closeness, and also a burning itch to get to the bottom of matters or to throw yourself in an intensive project or endeavor. Particularly regarding relationships, finances, self-worth, and respect, life seems to be showing you where you need to make changes and improvements now. Pressures from others or a feeling of being weighed down by obligations can motivate you to increase your self-reliance and independence or freedom. Think innovation! Tensions may surround money, ownership matters, sharing, or power dynamics. Whether someone owes you respect or money, the situation can come to a head. Material or non-material (such as emotional) debts can be hot topics now.
Taurus
Tonight’s New Moon can bring a burst of energy or motivation in the direction of close relationships and partnerships, dear Taurus. The weeks ahead are powerful for your connections, whether these unions are platonic, business, or romantic. It’s a time of new beginnings and improvements. You might bring a relationship to a new level or make a significant connection. There can be some impulsiveness today, so it would be wise to distinguish between making changes for the sake of change, and making changes that will genuinely propel you forward on an improved path. You are challenged to find the right balance between partnership and independence. Reacting is easy, but learning from your experiences is the smart thing to do now. Express your appreciation for people who matter most to you, especially if you’re also driven to assert your independence. With the Sun in your opposite sign opposing Uranus in your own sign, you may be dealing with resistance or opposition to your ideas or plans, or people in your life can trigger issues of freedom that you need to explore. Through self-discovery, you are in an exceptional position to consider new ways to improve your satisfaction from your partnerships. A new agreement or understanding can lift you up.
Gemini
Tonight’s New Moon brings on the potential for a new beginning in the areas of work, health, diet, fitness, and habits in your life, dear Gemini. The next couple of weeks are active for making improvements to these areas of your life with a take-charge, fresh, and focused attitude. This lunation occurs at the same time as a Sun-Uranus yearly opposition, giving it more power than usual. If you’ve been feeling at the mercy of others’ schedules, the resulting tension can motivate you to make necessary changes. You may very well discover what you’ve been missing in your life, and this sets you on a path to finding it. You are challenged to find a better balance between work and rest now, and it’s definitely within reach, although it may seem a daunting task. This cycle is about getting on top of daily schedules and routines and taking better care of your daily affairs. Your new beginnings may be the result of an unexpected change that alters your focus or direction. You are highly motivated to start fresh, but it’s important to pace yourself so that you don’t burn out quickly. Get the plan right in the next few days before pushing forward.
Cancer
Tonight’s New Moon prompts new beginnings for self-expression, as well as creative or romantic pursuits, dear Cancer. You become more aware of your need to entertain, be entertained, celebrate, enjoy, and share yourself with others, and doors are opening to do so now. With a Sun-Uranus opposition tied into the New Moon energy, your social life can be buzzing. You might experience a pull, disagreement, or discrepancy that prompts you to make changes. There is the element of surprise, rebellion, or change in the atmosphere around you, and it can be disruptive or highly stimulating! Friendship and creative directions can change. You’re likely to feel equally divided between feeling free and getting closer to a person or project, and the need to strike a balance will follow from this division. New opportunities or channels for expressing and enjoying yourself can open up to you, and children can be a big focus for some.
Leo
Tonight’s New Moon gives you a charge of energy for making changes and improvements to your personal life, dear Leo. Family and home-related activities are in sharp focus with this lunation, although today and tomorrow hold the potential for some especially impulsive energy in these areas. There can be real challenges managing your personal and professional or public lives now, with heavy demands coming from both ends. The trick is to find a balance or compromise. You might pick up or begin new home projects or make resolutions to better organize your home life. Matters of the heart, security, and comfort are in focus. Changes or surprises are courtesy of a Sun-Uranus opposition happening close to this New Moon. These can be disruptive on the one hand but revealing on another. Career or life path uncertainties, changes, drives, or inconsistencies can disrupt your comfort just for now. Consider that there could be emotional needs for change and excitement that you may not be acknowledging, and the sooner you get in touch, the more informed your decisions will be.
Virgo
Tonight’s New Moon awakens a need to reach out, learn, connect, and share, dear Virgo, with new beginnings or channels becoming available to do so. It can be particularly rewarding to connect or reconnect with neighbors, acquaintances, classmates, or siblings, although an upcoming Mercury retrograde cycle suggests some looking back before pushing forward. Catching up and staying connected is likely to boost your morale. Life loses some of its predictability now as the New Moon ties in with the annual Sun-Uranus opposition. The week ahead can be a time for awakening to a new perspective, but it may take some mind-racing to get there. While events or realizations occurring now can be a tad disruptive, they can also motivate you to make exciting changes. Relationships can be unsettled temporarily, but interactions can lead to breakthrough thinking. Through a person or situation, you’re learning about buried needs and desires. You have little tolerance for restrictive, limiting conditions and attitudes so that if someone is dealing with you in a rigid or pushy way, you’re likely to go another direction. You serve yourself best if you make changes from the heart rather than merely through knee-jerk reactions. Fortunately, there can be exciting news, or what you’re learning can be invigorating.
Libra
Tonight’s New Moon today reminds you of the need to take charge of your practical priorities, dear Libra. The goal might now be to get on top of your finances, business, and sense of security. Stability, safety, respect, and physical comforts are in stronger focus. Nevertheless, there can be a bit of chaos to get to the calm! It’s all about stimulating positive change, especially if it helps you build up or take charge of your resources. This New Moon ties into the annual Sun-Uranus opposition and surprises or changes of plans can push you along a new path. As much as you want to find a better balance and sense of harmony in your life now, a strong desire for freedom emerges as well. This influence can certainly light a fire under you for finding ways to be more independent, financially or otherwise. Tensions about money, debts, and obligations can motivate you to work harder and smarter. Watch for impulsiveness with money and combativeness in relationships. Avoid knee-jerk reactions to surprises now, aiming instead to tap into the inspiration to improve and grow. There can be some revelations and possible problems or tension related to finances, and this can be a wonderful time for discovering buried needs and desires.
Scorpio
With tonight’s New Moon in your sign, dear Scorpio, the weeks ahead are likely to be busy and significant. As exciting as this fresh energy feels, do your best not to push things too quickly, or you might run out of steam and encounter opposition. It’s a time for reinventing yourself in some meaningful way, or for a personal new beginning. Take charge of your life! You’re in the spotlight and, even with some uncertainty, you feel you’re in the driver’s seat. This year’s New Moon occurs around the same time as the Sun’s opposition to Uranus, and other people’s curveballs, unreliability, or defiance can motivate you to be a little more self-sufficient. Someone significant can be triggering dormant needs for freedom, independence, and excitement, and you are likely to learn important things about yourself and personal goals through your experiences and interactions now. A new perspective can emerge through your dealings. Later this week, you can feel compelled to make improvements related to mind, body, and spirit, and the changes you do make have a stronger impact on you and your life than usual. Today is useful for thinking about your goals.
Sagittarius
Today’s New Moon occurs in the sign just behind yours, dear Sagittarius. You receive a boost of motivation to tie up loose ends, close up projects, handle private matters, and pay better attention to your emotional health. Events and realizations occurring now and in the coming week remind you to slow down and get time for rest and reflection. You’re in an excellent position to process recent events and find ways to put dysfunctional matters behind you. In so doing, you free up emotional space for inviting new energy into your life. The weeks ahead are good for physical and psychological replenishment. You might consider ways to bring more spirituality or quiet time for reflection into your life. A Sun-Uranus opposition today can trigger a need for independence, self-sufficiency, freedom, and innovation. Because it occurs so close to the New Moon, its energies last longer, and you can find these themes active for at least the coming week. A new awareness of buried needs can push you into the direction of positive change. Lifestyle changes that support a more authentic, balanced approach to work and rest can be in focus now. Aim to be flexible and open to possibilities, but perhaps most importantly, to innovate rather than rebel. There are loose ends to take care of before your new beginnings.
Capricorn
Tonight’s New Moon launches a new cycle and brings on a fresh start in your social life or with happiness goals, causes, and projects, dear Capricorn. The weeks ahead are strong for reaching out to others and gaining cooperation. A sense of belonging or the desire to contribute to something bigger than yourself can be important themes. This can be a period for reinvigorating your social life. Or, this energy may be about energizing your sense of connectedness with others and hopes for the future. Cooperation, collaborating, and delegating seem to bring rewards. With the New Moon closely opposite Uranus, surprising events can trigger new beginnings. Part of you wants to join in, and another part craves the freedom of minimal ties, and finding a balance becomes necessary now. Changes of plans or sudden events can demand a new approach, particularly with friends, lovers, or children, and possibly a creative project or favorite cause. Epiphanies can occur about a relationship or creative direction, and they’re significant. A friend could push you in the right direction for finding good outlets for your creativity and self-expression. Keep an open heart, mind, and schedule for best results with this brilliant influence. Take your time drawing conclusions–it’s a good idea to feel out discoveries before making the more significant decisions.
Aquarius
Tonight’s New Moon prompts a new approach to your responsibilities, dear Aquarius. It occurs at the top of your solar chart and can push long-term goals and performance to the top of your priority list for the coming weeks. You have the power to reshape your reputation and professional goals in beneficial ways now. New or renewed business plans and objectives take form going forward. You could find yourself more visible or in demand. Business and career matters, or decisions about significant crossroads and life paths or direction, are in focus now. There may be some balancing to do with managing home life, which can be a little chaotic at times, as well as managing your energy levels. A Sun-Uranus opposition ties into this New Moon, and your challenge is to find a better balance between independence and togetherness, work and home life, security and excitement, or public and personal life. It’s not always easy, but events occurring now can motivate you to take on the challenge! Watch for rebellious or impetuous reactions that don’t serve you well. Focus, instead, on innovations. Life seems to be accelerated, and this can give you more courage to do something you’ve always wanted to do. Something needs to change, but it’s best to make considered adjustments rather than merely react to frustrating circumstances. Aim to know your own heart before acting on it. Both professional and personal demands are strong upon you now, but it can be challenging to make headway in either direction until you strike up a balance or compromise.
Pisces
Tonight’s New Moon may offer up opportunities to do new and exciting things, or learn something fascinating, dear Pisces. There can be opportunities arising in the coming weeks to broaden your horizons through travel, education, or other forms of life experience. Or, events and discoveries occurring in the week ahead prompt you to take a fresh approach to learning and living. Branching out into unexplored territory can be enriching and inspiring now. Meeting people who introduce you to new ideas, concepts, and even lifestyles can be in focus. This New Moon occurs close to a Sun-Uranus opposition, serving to shake things up on a mental level. Conversations and changes in plans and schedules can alter your perspective on a matter or your view of a project or situation. This can be a time for sharing ideas, publishing, discovering, and connecting. Changes in plans can lead to discoveries, perspectives, and insight that genuinely improve your life, so don’t dig in your heels too much. Aim to be open to change, but try not to make sudden moves until you know your heart on a matter. There can be an epiphany or moment of truth that can be a little disruptive but also relieving, refreshing, and revealing.
