The moon arrives in no-nonsense Capricorn this morning, setting a responsible tone for the day that bodes well for getting some serious work done. Now is not the time to leap into a new project that lacks a clear structure. Set realistic expectations, minimize distractions, and stick to the plan you’ve already outlined.
Once your morning is in full swing, the moon squares off with disciplinarian Saturn and hazy Neptune retrograde. Heavy expectations or the pressure to achieve could cause a buildup of stress. Don’t lose faith in what you’re working toward. Consider your work boundaries and give yourself plenty of breaks between each task on your to-do list.
Later this evening, you may feel conflicted on whether to give more or pull back. The controlled Capricorn moon strikes an opposition with abundant Jupiter, blurring lines between how far you should go to support people through their struggles. Your empathy and duty of care are admirable, but you can’t be everyone’s hero. Don’t feel guilty for no longer over-extending yourself to help others at your own expense.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Responsibilities are weighing heavily on you today. But how much of this is your own self-expectation? Be realistic about the standard you set for yourself. You’re already a powerhouse, Aries. You don’t need to go above and beyond to prove it to others.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Doubt and uncertainty about the future are clouding your optimism. Avoid making decisions when you lose sight of your goals. Wait until your faith returns — which it will.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
The fear of financial loss, emotional fallout, or betrayal could keep you from getting deep, intimate, and vulnerable with people. Build back trust so you feel safe again to share more of yourself and your resources.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Navigating choppy waters in your relationship will test the romanticized vision you’ve been holding for your future. Sometimes, when matters of the heart feel strained or stagnant, the best thing to do is hold off on applying more force and pressure.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
When you were in a good mood, you agreed to something you now wish you hadn’t. Watch for the signs of fatigue or burnout. Don’t expect perfection from yourself today.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Insecurities are quietly weaving their way into your love life and artistic projects. Call yourself out when you find yourself drawing comparisons that cause disappointment or block your creativity and joy.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Are you dreading the next time someone asks for help? Set a boundary. Don’t let anyone take advantage of your compassionate heart.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Realizations that you cannot manage all of your work tasks may lead to a mature, direct conversation with your boss. Communicate, Scorpio. Don’t struggle in silence while trying to achieve the impossible.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
When you’re hellbent on improving your financial circumstances, you lose sight of what really matters: enjoying your life and the fruits of your labor. Reassess your priorities. Do you have a healthy balance of work and play?
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Feeling physically or emotionally exhausted? Pushing yourself too hard when you’re unclear on your wants and needs isn’t the answer. Take a gentle step back to reassess your direction.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Take a look around and you’ll notice that other people share your emotional struggles and existential worries. Don’t force yourself to find all the answers you need. Rest, reflect, and write down your feelings.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Online, it’s too easy to compare yourself to people who have already achieved your dreams. Log off today and take small but significant steps toward your goals. Remember that your path to success doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.
