Around noon, Venus retrograde in glamorous Leo trines rebel Uranus in Aries. We love it when Venus and Uranus come together productively: When this happens, people are willing take risks and aren't afraid to stand out. But keep in mind that Venus is retrograde, so we may still feel a little hesitant or insecure. Stay conscious and keep your heart open--sometimes feeling like shit is a choice. Late tonight, the Moon in lovely Libra sextiles the Sun in Leo, meaning everyone will be feeling good and getting along. Call someone you love to say goodnight.

Aries

Same faces, same parties, same cocktails with those little umbrellas in them. You should be having fun, but you feel a little deflated. Could it be that you're not tapping into your creative side enough lately? Do something different today.

Taurus

There's nothing worse than someone telling you they have a surprise for you and having to wait to find out what it is. If this happens to you today, try to remember: This person isn't trying to annoy the fuck out of you--they actually care about you.

Gemini

Your forecast today is fun, Gemini: Unusual people are entering your life and they have plenty of insight to offer you. The Moon is in Libra, a charming fellow Air sign, suggesting you'll have plenty of opportunities to flirt.

Cancer

If you can, work from home (your fav place) today. Mysteries are coming to light, and you can't deal with all these vagaries if you're feeling distracted. On a side note: Today you might want to confront whatever it is you've been avoiding in your love life.

Leo

It's a great day for taking risks, Leo, but you're not feeling like your usual, fiery self. If you're able to take a mini vacation, go for it--seeing or doing something new will lift your spirit.

Virgo

There's this big misconception that you're obsessed with order, Virgo. I know that's not true, but today, unruly or even shady behavior will really get under your skin. Just remember: Everyone does things their own way, and that's okay.

Libra

The people in your life are behaving erratically, but you can't say it hasn't been fun or that you're not meeting interesting, smart people as a result. This Moon is in your sign today, Libra, meaning people will be feeling as diplomatic and gracious as you normally do.

Scorpio

Worlds could collide today. You may run into your boss while walking your dog, so be aware of how badly you reek of cigarette smoke or alcohol, Scorpio. The Moon is in cooperative Air sign Libra now, so try to ask yourself where in your life you could be a little more generous.

Sagittarius

This has been a long summer, Sagittarius, but today's pace will be more your speed. Life is filled with possibilities; you're feeling creative and electric. Love even looks good today! You may be feeling a little stuck in your routine: Break out, it'll be worth it!

Capricorn

You're feeling a little stingy, Capricorn: Whom are you refusing to share with, and why? Your focus is on your career and reputation today, but unexpected things may come up at home or with your family.

Aquarius

Expect to have plenty of communication today with your seemingly super moody friends, lovers, and contacts. They need your cool and calm wisdom today, Aquarius! The Moon is in fellow intellectual Air sign Libra--perhaps some philosophical breakthroughs are on the menu today.

Pisces

Unexpected news around finances or your job may come up today: If you lose something, trust that it was meant to be, and move right along. The Moon is in generous Air sign Libra, so help could be on the way from an intimate friend.
