Venus in picky-yet-playful Virgo opposes hazy Neptune, which is currently in dreamy Pisces, at 1:04 PM, bringing some tension but encouraging us to get real about the world. A chance to talk about emotions with someone who “gets it” comes at 9:14 PM, when the Moon in grounded Capricorn connects with empathetic Neptune. The Moon also contacts sweet Venus at 10:07 PM, creating an easy, lovely vibe.

All times EST.

Aries

Let your imagination run free today, Aries—but not so free that you become paranoid or anxious. Do some journaling or meditation. Some truly fantastic visions and ideas could manifest!

Taurus

Not everything is as it seems, Taurus, especially in your social, creative, or love life. But this might not be too bad—life’s hard, and sometimes living in a dream world is a welcome break. You know who does and doesn’t have good intentions, so listen to your heart.

Gemini

You’re feeling unsure about an issue concerning your career and reputation, as well as your home; however, if you trust your gut, you’ll work it out! If someone owes you a favor, they may come through today.

Cancer

The Moon is in Capricorn, the sign opposite from you on the zodiac wheel! This means relationships will be your focus today—but communication will be tricky. Express yourself through actions, not words.

Leo

You’re not thinking clearly about money today, Leo. As the sign of royalty, sometimes you forget that you don’t have the jewels and riches to match your status. Save conversations about cash, money owed, or valuable belongings for another day.

Virgo

The Moon is in fellow Earth sign Capricorn today, sending you fun and flirty vibes! Things will feel dreamy in your relationships, but you’re wary of anything that seems too perfect. Be realistic, but enjoy today’s fairytale vibe.

Libra

The Moon in Capricorn is activating a very private, domestic sector of your chart, putting your focus on family and your home. You’re tired as hell today, although you know it’s in your best interest to take care of business—get someone to help you!

Scorpio

Things may feel a little too good to be true, Scorpio, especially around love, your social life, or your artistic pursuits. Don’t overthink things; relax and have fun. What’s real will stand the test of time.

Sagittarius

You’re not totally sure what you want out of life right now, but you know it’s time for you to move forward—no more sitting around for you! Money is on your mind, thanks to the Moon in Capricorn.

Capricorn

The Moon is in your sign today, Capricorn! This is a fantastic time to connect with your heart. Do you feel secure and supported? Confusion is in the air today, but good vibes will still flow.

Aquarius

The Moon in Capricorn is lighting up a very private, sleepy sector of your chart. Make time to be alone and unwind. Confusion around cash or questions of who owes what to whom will come up today—work it out later.

Pisces

The Moon in Capricorn is activating the sector of your chart that rules your friendships and community. Relationship stuff will be confusing today, but people mean well. Don’t jump to conclusions about anything today.
