Love planet Venus joins forces with powerful Pluto to give the day an aura of passion and intensity; you could meet someone utterly captivating, or existing relationships could deepen and transform. But while it might be tempting to go all-in, especially on a new relationship, remember that Venus is still retrograde, making it easy to get the wrong impressions, put others on undeserved pedestals, or commit to relationships that aren’t ultimately right for you. Try to balance your openness to love with some extra caution.
Aries Daily Horoscope
It can be hard to make sense of the world — and your own place in it — when you’re doing all your thinking alone. You need other people to bounce ideas off of, friends to point out the errors in your logic, trusted confidantes who will tell you when you’re out of line. Today, especially, you’ll benefit from spending time in your community. The more you share your insights with others — and listen to their feedback in return — the more clearer the path forward will become.
Taurus Daily Horoscope
Most of the time you know exactly what you want, and you aren’t shy about telling people. Today, though, you might feel uncharacteristically reserved. Maybe you’re worried that sharing your plans with others will bring unwanted attention, or maybe you’re simply enjoying having time to dream without everyone’s opinions. Whatever the case, give yourself the privacy you need. Others might pressure you to open up, but don’t feel obligated. There will be plenty of time to open up if and when you decide you’re ready.
Gemini Daily Horoscope
Certain people just seem to have a special aura about them. When they’re around, life seems to get more exciting; their very presence might make you feel like a more interesting version of yourself. But be careful of giving them too much credit. It’s probably not that they enhance you somehow, but that they activate a dormant energy that was inside you all along. Make a point of spending time with the people who make you feel good today, but remember that they’re just as lucky to be near you.
Cancer Daily Horoscope
If you’re stressed today, it could be easy to fixate on something you imagine would solve all your problems. If you could just get that one job, or if that one person only loved you more, you imagine that the rest would fall easily into place. But try not to place too much importance on any one thing. It might feel like you absolutely need one specific prospect to work out, but even if you don’t get exactly what you want this time, you’ll find something better. Even if you don’t get exactly what you want this time, you’ll find something better.
Leo Daily Horoscope
Some people view their close relationships as a means of avoiding the rest of the world, spending all their time with the same few friends, never venturing outside of their tight social circle. As much as you enjoy meeting new people, even you would sometimes rather stick to the comforts of your home base. But today, you can have the best of both worlds — the new and the familiar — by getting out into the world and having adventures alongside the people you already know and love.
Virgo Daily Horoscope
For the most part, you’ve learned to deal with your fear of criticism, and to keep moving in spite of it. Every so often, though, your anxiety reaches a fever pitch, to the point of being completely immobilizing. It feels like you can’t take a single step without risking somebody’s condemnation. Today, if you can’t shut out that inner critic, then you can at least pay attention to the friends whose voices offer a counterweight. They think you’re wonderful and doing plenty of things right; choose to listen to them instead.
Libra Daily Horoscope
Some people seem to discount the importance of relationships, but you understand how valuable they are. The most stressful days become more bearable when someone else is helping you through them, and the most exhilarating experiences are better with other people. But because you know how much connections with others matter, it can sometimes be tempting to rush into them. Today, make a point of taking your time. Don’t settle for less than what feels right.
Scorpio Daily Horoscope
You’re not the sort of person to run yourself ragged to make a boss happy, but you’re an incredibly hard worker all the same. Cutting corners makes you nervous; you sleep better knowing you put in your best effort. Today, though, might be a day to pull back a bit. You don’t always have to go above and beyond. Doing what you have to, but no more, will leave you with more energy for the things you love.
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
You could be faced with unexpected opportunities today, whether it’s in the form of new people, thrilling career possibilities, or simply fresh and different ways to spend your time. The key is to resist any pressure — or temptation — to commit to a longterm project immediately. Right now, everything seems exciting and wonderful, and it’ll be difficult to choose. Eventually you’ll have to make some decisions, but for now, try to keep your options open and enjoy the sense of possibility.
Capricorn Daily Horoscope
Sometimes, you start to worry that your existing relationships are growing stale. You know one another’s quirks and you’ve heard all of each other’s stories; it seems possible that you’ll soon run out of things to talk about. Today, though, you’ll discover that you don’t need to go chasing novelty, at least not yet: The people you know best still have the ability to surprise you. As close and as deep as your relationships are, they have room to get closer still.
Aquarius Daily Horoscope
Sometimes you feel like you’re out of step with everyone around you — and the harder you try to fit in, the more you feel deeply and hopelessly different. Today, though, you’ll be reminded that this isn’t such a bad thing. You don’t need to mirror everyone else to be loved by them — if anything, wearing a mask will only create distance between you. Showing others who you really are will make you more interesting, not less — at least to the people who matter.
Pisces Daily Horoscope
Sometimes you spend a long time working toward a goal, only to feel vaguely disappointed once you finally reach it. The things that seem attractive from afar don’t always live up to your expectations; the achievements you’re sure will fulfill you leave you feeling hollow. It’s not that you did anything wrong, it’s just hard to know ahead of time what will actually make you happy. Today, if you discover that you’ve been chasing the wrong goals, don’t be afraid to change course.
