We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible, the best sex positions for each sign, or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based Astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for December 9, 2016.
It's another high energy kind of day with the Moon (feelings) still in spirited Aries. Though the day may start off on a rather intense note as the competitive Aries Moon squares off with Pluto (power) in iron-willed Capricorn. The result of these two together could leave us feeling that the only way to get what we want to is to force it to happen which could have us coming on way stronger and being a bit more zealous than we need to. Later in the day, things smooth out a little when the Aries Moon hangs out while with the happy go lucky Sun (confidence) in Sagittarius, followed by a lively interaction with Jupiter (opportunity) in fair-minded Libra, which should bring more of a friendly vibe to the competition.
By the latter half of the day, the Aries Moon receives some support from Saturn (hard work) in Sagittarius and Uranus (rebellion) in Aries, which could have us feeling like we can get over any challenge that comes our way. When the Sun in Sagittarius makes a sweet connection to Jupiter in Libra, it could be the perfect time to take a risk on something big or launch something that we want to draw some big buzz (and big bucks). The high energy doesn't stop as the evening ends with a friendly meeting between the Aries Moon and Mars in unconventional Aquarius. While this combo can be good for breaking through blockages and finding the courage to take on something wildly different, exercise caution as accidents can happen too.
Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You might feel like you have to fight for an opportunity that which could leave you feeling like you're missing out on something big. Though while fighting is something that you do well, know that you don't have to win by force. You just need to remember how amazing you are.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Something you believed to be true might not hold as much weight as it used to in your life which could be unsettling. Though you're in a place where you need to discover what's true for you and what isn't based on experiences that go beyond the surface. Go beyond what you know.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
You could find yourself in a power struggle with a friend or someone you once considered to be an ally, which could have you ready to end the relationship. Though before you make any decisions, consider if this relationship is worth the energy you're giving it right now. If not, move on.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22
If you find yourself upset today because you feel your partner isn't following your lead when it comes to something you want or potential partners don't stack up to you or what you want either, today's the day to fix what's broken. Hint: it's not about forcing someone to do what you want.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
You could feel like an obligation at work or a dead-end job is keeping you from doing something that you really want to do. Though instead of getting angry about it and spending another day complaining, consider this your impetus to turn your passion into an enterprise. Make a way.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
Under-appreciated might be the word that describes how you might feel today but instead of living from the outside in; measuring yourself up against others and letting the world show you how you should feel about you, it's time to pull inward and find your center. Take back your power.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
Instead of rehashing the past or obsessing over what he or she said, wouldn't it be better to sit down and talk to your partner? Whether this is a personal or professional relationship, you won't get past this hurdle if you can't talk to each other. Say what's been on your heart.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
You may find yourself upset with a situation at work today or while doing something you regularly do, though the anger you feel could be pulling your attention to a deeper reason. You have to start being more savvy about what you give your time and resources to; save something for yourself.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
You might have a bit of a false start today as you may feel like something you're gunning for isn't exactly materializing in the way you want. However, that feeling should quickly dissipate as you remember you're more than capable to make things happen. Call on your friends for back up.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
It may be tough to fight the unsettling feeling you might get today at the realization that your world may not be as stable as you would like it to be. Though understand that this is not to freak you out, but to keep you from getting stuck and stagnant. Roll with the punches and keep moving.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
Instead of obsessing over something you can't control, it's time to focus on what you can control, which may include taking a new approach toward getting where you want to be. There's a whole big wide open path in front of you that can take you anywhere you want. Why look back?
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
You might wake up with a fire in your belly today ready to conquer the world at a moment's notice. This is good news because not only will you be ready to take advantage of any professional opportunities that come you way, you'll be able to create some too. Go for the gold.
