The Moon's in charming Air sign Libra all day, inspiring us to seek balance in our lives. Helpful vibes come when the Moon connects with structure-loving Saturn (currently in energetic Fire sign Sagittarius) at 6:34 PM. Watch out for intense emotional reactions late this evening—the Moon will challenge the lord of the underworld, Pluto, in Capricorn at 12:37 AM. All times EDT.


Aries

Today's energy is all about relationships for you, Aries, because the Moon is hanging out in Libra, your opposite sign on the zodiac wheel. An opportunity to restructure your commitments could arrive.

Taurus

The Sun is in your sign, Taurus, showering you with lots of love and attention! But that doesn't mean you can ignore your chores—get to your to-do list today! And watch out for major delays this evening.

Gemini

The Moon is in fellow Air sign Libra, activating the part of your chart that rules romance and creativity—fun! Let yourself have a good time today, but watch out for some tears or intensity later this evening.

Cancer

The Moon is in Libra, the sign of balance, lighting up the part of your chart that rules home, family, and feeling safe and secure—are you feeling cozy, Cancer? A stressful issue could pop up in your relationships tonight.

Leo

The Moon is in chatty, social Air sign Libra today, and you're in the mood to connect; however, the planet of communication, Mercury, is retrograde and the conversations may not deliver the information you need.

Virgo

Virgo is famous for its flawless vibes, but today the Moon is in Libra, the sign of harmony, and is activating the sector of your chart that rules self esteem. Don't hold yourself to a ridiculous standard. Embrace your flaws, don't worry about them.

Libra

The world's working on your emotional wavelength thanks to the Moon being in your sign all day today, Libra! A helpful conversation comes your way this evening, but watch out for overpowering emotions concerning home or family later on.

Scorpio

Take it slow today, Scorpio. Not only is Mercury retrograde, but the Moon is in Libra, the sign of balance, asking you to take a step back and recharge. A challenging conversation arrives later this evening.

Sagittarius

The Moon is in charming, social Air sign Libra, lighting up the sector of your chart that rules community and friendship, as well as your hopes and dreams for the future. Work your connections today.

Capricorn

The Moon is in Libra, lighting up the sector of your chart that rules fame and fortune. But are you ready for all that power? Reflect on what success means to you today, Capricorn.

Aquarius

The Moon is in fellow Air sign Libra today, lighting up the sector of your chart that rules learning and travel—you're always up for a new experience! But expect delays, because Mercury is retrograde.

Pisces

You're one of the most magical signs in the zodiac, Pisces, but today your psychic abilities are even stronger than usual. Use your intuitive powers during a tricky social situation this evening.
