In this daily horoscope for October 19, Bustle’s resident astrologer Mecca Woods, founder of My Life Created, shares the astrological events happening today that will affect every zodiac sign. Below, here’s a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

It’s a high-energy kind of a day as the moon remains in ambitious Aries. As a result, we’re feeling ambitious too now that most of the planets are no longer retrograde and we can move forward again. The Aries moon gets the day off to an enthusiastic start as she meets up with Venus in adventurous Sagittarius in the early morning. Under this Moon-Venus combo, we can expect discussions, new ventures, and interactions with others to lead to positive outcomes or relationships.

Meanwhile, the moon in Aries encourages us to set aside time for fun too, as too much work can get boring. With Aries being an energetic and passionate sign, the day also offers the opportunity to find fun in getting physical or working up a sweat. Putting time into something you’re excited about can also bring a bit of joy too. Of course, as tomorrow’s full moon in Aries approaches, we’ll just need to make sure to keep our temper and ego in check if possible.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your zodiac sign today, and make sure to check out your October 2021 monthly horoscope.
