We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible 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 April 27, 2018.

The Moon continues its stay in partnership-oriented Libra today, putting us in the mood to team up and establish relationships with others as well as seek out things (like art) that provide us with a sense of balance and beauty. Though when the Libra Moon squares off with no-nonsense Saturn in Capricorn by this afternoon, finding that beauty may be a tough thing to do. Since Libra is also associated with romance and relationships, we might also find it hard to connect with others too. At best, this Moon-Saturn combination can help us to take a more responsible and pragmatic approach to our relationships and our need for balance. At worst, we may need to be mindful of creating or seeing problems where there are none. Luckily, the Moon meets up with Mercury in Aries by the late afternoon, which can be helpful for finding solutions and sharing what we feel. The only thing about this Moon-Mercury match is up is that we'll also have to be cautious about getting into arguments or disagreements.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your sign today, and check out your April 2018 monthly horoscope.
