Last night was totally weird—the Moon meet with the planet of nonconformity, Uranus, at 12:17 AM—but today is pretty chill. The only shift going on in the heavens is the Moon entering sensual Earth sign Taurus at 1:10 PM. A new moon is coming tomorrow, so spend some time today brainstorming what new seeds you would like to plant in your life. All times EDT.


Aries

I know you never asked to be a role model, Aries, but your confidence inspires others. But lately you've been second-guessing yourself and even feeling annoyed when complimented. Take time to remember that you're awesome.

Taurus

The Moon enters your sign today, Taurus! Did you know that your sign is the Moon's favorite place to be (other than Cancer, which is the sign it rules) because you're so grounded and creative? Pat yourself on the back today.

Gemini

Make it an early night. The Moon will be in Earth sign Taurus, and you'll be tired AF. The Moon wants you to spend time in quite reflection, enjoying some rest—not partying like you usually do, Gemini.

Cancer

You've been all business lately, Cancer, but today, when the Moon enters chill Taurus, you'll be in the mood to socialize. Old friends may return, thanks to Mercury retrograde.

Leo

All your talent means nothing, Leo, if you don't work hard and practice. Today the Moon enters Taurus and inspires you to get to work. Success is on its way, but only if you put in the effort.

Virgo

The Moon enters fellow Earth sign Taurus, activating the sector of your chart that rules travel and learning. Mercury retrograde is a drag, but you're feeling optimistic and open today.

Libra

Your intuition is very strong today, Libra. Don't ignore it. There's a new moon coming up in Taurus that will activate a very intimate sector of your chart. Reflect on your partnerships today. Are you craving a deeper connection?

Scorpio

As the sign that rules genitals, you're very happy that the Moon is entering sensual, sexy Earth sign Taurus today. A sense of renewal is arriving to your relationships soon, thanks to the upcoming New Moon.

Sagittarius

You're always happy for a fresh start, Sagittarius, and a new one is coming your way thanks to tomorrow's new moon in Taurus. This is an excellent time to break a bad habit.

Capricorn

Today the Moon enters fellow Earth sign Taurus, one of the more sensual signs of the zodiac. As a lusty goat, you're feeling this energy, Capricorn. You're in a creative mood today.

Aquarius

The Moon enters grounded, stable Earth sign Taurus today, highlighting the part of your chart that rules your home. You're cool with this: You're ready for some more comfort and security in your life!

Pisces

What's important to you, Pisces? You've been thinking about that a lot lately. Today, the thinking will become talking, but be careful: Mercury is retrograde, and miscommunications are on the menu.
