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 Oct. 11, 2017.
Although the Moon is in cuddly and cozy Cancer, today may not feel so cuddly or cozy thanks to Mars in detailed oriented Virgo squaring off with serious Saturn in Sagittarius. As a result, the day could be fraught with frustrations, roadblocks, and delays as this Mars-Saturn match up feels akin to running uphill. The best way to manage this aspect is to figure out where our time and energy might be best spent and focus on the task at hand; pacing ourselves along the way. If things feel like they're really not moving, it may be best to drop what we're doing for now and come back to it later. By the evening, the tension eases up a bit as the Cancer Moon meets up with dreamy Neptune in Pisces, putting us in the mood to chill. With these two together, we might find that we're feeling more sensitive and intuitive than usual, which means it's a perfect evening to be in the company of loved ones or doing something that relaxes our mind, like meditating or listening to music.
Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You may have some big plans that you want to make happen like yesterday, but you may be biting off a little more than you can chew right now. It's not that you have to totally scrap what you're doing. It may be that you have to fine tune what you've already started. Go back to the drawing board for now.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
You're asked to look a little closer when it comes to a romantic relationship, as someone you're interested in may not be able to offer you the substance or consistency you're craving right now. Intuitively you may already know this. Though don't worry, you have plenty opportunities to meet someone new.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Your financial security is on your mind today, which could bring up a disagreement or misunderstanding between you and your partner or someone close to you. If you've made plans together, you may need to revise or reorganize those plans in a way that fits your budget. Find a compromise.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
The spotlight is on you and your needs today, which means it's a perfect day to indulge in self-care, especially if it feels like you just can't get anything done. If you find yourself feeling particularly stuck or if folks seem uncooperative at work, taking a different/unconventional approach may help.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
A romantic relationship may not be all it's cracked up to be, especially if it seems like you're giving more than you're receiving. Though you may want this to work, you may need to get clear about what your values are when it comes to love. Where is your internal compass trying to guide you?
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
A home or family related matter may get under your skin today, especially if someone at home has been particularly demanding of your time and energy. Though as uncomfortable as it feels, this may be the impetus you need to draw a boundary and break free of this negative energy. Move forward.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
You may be thinking about your goals and achievements today. Though at the same time, you may be feeling like you aren't exactly where you want to be right now. While having an ambition is important, it's also important that you celebrate how far you've come. Look to a friend or partner for support.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
You may be in the mood for a vacay but you may not be able to get away any time soon, due to your cash flow. However, there are some small things you can do to minimize some of the stress in your life. Shake up or change your daily routine. Small changes in your schedule could make a big difference.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
Your boss or someone at work could get under your skin today, which could have you ready to run for the hills. But picking up and quitting your job may not be the best option for you right now. It could just be that you need a break from the heavy workload you're dealing with. If so, make room for fun.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
You may be raring to go today but your body may be saying otherwise. That means your time may be best spent getting in rest and relaxation, rather than attacking your next big goal. Meanwhile, your partner or someone close to you could offer you some additional comfort. Lay down your burdens.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
A major expense could feel like a setback today, especially when it comes to getting something you've had your heart set on. Things may not be coming together the way you want. However, this may give you the motivation you need to get on top of your spending and better manage your cash.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
A business partnership may not be working out the way you want it, which means you may need to seriously consider sticking around. On another note, you could feel like you're being pulled in two directions when it comes to the demands of a relationship and your career. Do what makes sense for you.
