Aries

Over the last few months, you've been opening up your mind to new ways of thinking and being. Will these lessons and new habits stick? It's time to move forward with your newfound knowledge.

Taurus

You try not to be indebted to others, but shit happens, Taurus. Reflect on what you owe people—financially or metaphorically—today. Or maybe someone owes something to you? It probably won't come today, but it's a good time to check in with your feelings about it.

Gemini

It's a difficult, tense day for your relationships, Gemini, but you can work positively with today's cosmic energy by being your most mature, frugal version of yourself. Being serious will lighten the mood.

Cancer

You're great at taking care of other people, Cancer, but how good are you at taking care of yourself? I bet you don't pamper yourself half as much as you do friends and family. Reflect on self-care today.

Leo

The Moon is in fellow Fire sign Sagittarius today, bringing you creative inspiration and stirring up romantic feelings; however, the overall mood is intensely serious. Today is less about cuddles than it is about considering commitment.

Virgo

You're at a major turning point with all things related to your home, family, and security. Making plans to move, working out issues with your parents or roommates, redecorating your home, or figuring out what makes you feel safe emotionally will all be huge at this time.

Libra

You've been rethinking your commitments over the last few months, and now you're ready to make some serious changes, though you might not be sure how to discuss these issues yet. Take your time, Libra.

Scorpio

Finding ways to be more financially responsible has been a big theme for you since the early part of the spring. You've learned a lot since then about how to organize yourself, and some rewards will soon be on the way.

Sagittarius

The Moon is in your sign today, Sagittarius, but today's big news is that Saturn, the planet of rules and boundaries, is ending its retrograde in your sign. Things will start moving forward now. You've hit some limits, and you're ready to break free.

Capricorn

Your ruling planet, Saturn, is pausing in the sky today, ending its retrograde through philosophical Fire sign Sagittarius and turning direct. In celebration of this, cut yourself some slack and take a big break from your duties.

Aquarius

You've learned a lot about your friends and your community over the last few months—how are you feeling about it all, Aquarius? Reflect on the strength and longevity of your friendships and connections.

Pisces

You're at a turning point in your career and with your reputation. Things won't be easy today, but try to find comfort in the fact that things are moving forward. Relationship stress will come up for healing today.
