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 July 6, 2017.
The Moon remains in adventurous Sagittarius today, but there may be a bit of a stop-start feel to the day as the Moon brushes up against planets in tender-hearted Pisces and sensitive Cancer, and meets up with freedom-loving Jupiter, and merges with serious Saturn by the end of the day. As such, we may find that we are caught between the need to go big and the need to play it safe. While we don't necessarily need to close ourselves off to new experiences or fulfilling our biggest ideas, it is best if we don't take on too much too soon.
Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.
And remember to tune into Bustle's weekly horoscopes video live on Facebook every other Monday at 5 p.m. EST for a rundown of your weekly horoscope.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
"Don't believe the hype" might be the theme for you today, as something you believe in or may have high hopes for may not be able to withstand scrutiny or reality. That's why it's important to trust your instincts and listen to your intuition instead of buying into a dream. The facts need to add up.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Could someone be asking for more from you emotionally (or financially) than you can afford to give right now? There's a chance that you may not be seeing someone as clearly as you should, which could leave you open to being taken advantage of or taken for granted. At the same time, you can't control others.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
You may be putting too much stock in what others have to say about you or what they may be expecting of you, which could be overshadowing you and what you want. While compromise is sometimes necessary, this might be one of those times where you'll need to put some boundaries down.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
While you may be feeling inspired today, it's important that you don't try to bite off more than you can chew, especially when it comes to something you're planning or dreaming up. However, that doesn't mean that you have to quit what you're doing. You just need to work strategically to get it done.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
A romance that you may be hoping gets serious may be lacking the emotional honesty or depth that you need. It's possible that the person you're interested in may not be as straightforward with you as you would like. That means in addition to trusting your sixth sense, you'll have to trust the facts too.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
You and someone close to you may not be on the same page today, which could stir up a misunderstanding. However, instead of letting this throw you off guard, know that today could also be the perfect opportunity for a heart-to-heart conversation to sort everything out. Honor how you feel.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
You could find yourself spinning in circles today, especially when it comes to your job, if you're not careful. Though, you do best when you create designated time to pursue your creative ideas and your day-to-day tasks. Just don't try to do it all at once. A clear plan or strategy wins. Minimize distractions.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
You may be thinking of taking a gamble on a creative endeavor, which may be more costly than you originally anticipated, or there's a chance that you may not be sufficiently compensated for your creative input. However, you may either need to scale back your budget or honor your financial needs.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
While it's important to think of others and consider the feelings and needs of those that matter to you, it shouldn't be at the expense of your well-being. While it's OK to help others and provide them with emotional support they need, you may need to draw the line on how deeply you're involved.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
You could be feeling out of sorts today, or feeling a bit confused on a decision you should make. However, talking with your partner or with someone you have a tight rapport with could provide you the insight you're missing. At the same time, it's OK if you don't have the answers now. They will come eventually.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
You could be feeling a bit dejected today as something you want or may have been praying for doesn't seem like it's going to happen the way you would like. Still, that doesn't mean that all is lost. It just requires a little more effort, creativity, and focus on your end. Look to others as resources too.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
You may be feeling conflicted in terms of how you see yourself and how you want others to see you. However, if it comes down to trying to force yourself to be something you're not, it's not going to work in your favor. Right now, your best bet is to be as authentic as you can and let that be enough.
