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 Sept. 19, 2017.
The Virgo Moon continues to put the need for us to stay focused and productive at the forefront; pushing us to find better ways to manage our day-to-day duties. That's why the meeting between the Moon and powerful Pluto in Capricorn at the start of the day is so helpful, as this cosmic combo can give us the strength and determination we need to overcome any challenge or obstacle that gets in our way. However, things may seem a bit dour towards the late afternoon as the Virgo Moon squares off with serious Saturn in Sagittarius. Under this combination, we may need to be gentle with ourselves or others as the urge to criticize, judge, or withdraw affection may be strong at this time.
Though with Venus, the planet of money and relationships, moving into Virgo later tonight; we should be able to see what we can change or improve when it comes to these areas in our lives. By the end of the night, Mercury in Virgo opposes Neptune in imaginative Pisces, which is a combo best used for dreaming or creating something brilliant, rather than decision-making or anything that requires clarity. Err on the side of intuition.
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)
A job lead, offer, project, or promotion could come through today but you could find yourself questioning whether you have the chops to effectively handle whatever comes your way. The fact is, you don't have to be perfect. You just have to be willing to learn what you don't know and be ready to work.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
You've got love on the brain, but is that person you're into able to give you more than some short-term fun? On the flip side, if you're single, are you spending too much time thinking that the love you want will never arrive? If either is true, know that your love life is about to improve. Open your mind.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
You may be feeling like your partner or someone close to you may not be giving you the support that you need right now, which could have you at odds with this person. Today might be one of those days where you have to find your strength and get resourceful. Trust your intuition more than anything.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
You may feel like you're running in circles today, namely with all of the responsibilities you have on your plate now. However, if you can delegate some of those tasks and call on the people around you to help out, your to-do list may not seem so long. Meanwhile, don't pressure yourself on a decision.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
Your finances are the focus, and as such, you may be feeling a bit frustrated that you can't spend as much as you'd like, especially when it comes to having some fun. However, don't let this temporary setback get you down as there is a blessing coming your way. Meanwhile, be wary of shady financial activity.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
It's all about you right now. So why are you overly concerned with what others may be demanding of you, especially when it comes to your family. While you may not want to let them down, you can't live your life overly bound by their rules. In other words, you have to figure out what works for you and work it.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
You may find yourself in your feelings today, but it's important to remember how resourceful and resilient you really are. Try not to measure yourself by how much you've done or haven't done as you won't be able to give yourself a fair assessment anyway. In the meantime, make room for self-care.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
You may need to call on the help or the wise counsel of a friend today, especially if something you've been wishing for, isn't coming together the way you want it to. Your fiend may be able to help you come up with a solution or at the very least, offer you a word of encouragement. Tap into your creativity.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
You could make some major gains today when it comes to your professional life, but it may require you to get past any self-doubt or fear that you may have. You're doing better than you're giving yourself credit. Don't be afraid to bask in your moment in the spotlight. Speak what you want into existence.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
You often strive to keep it real, but you can also succumb to keeping up appearances if it means you get to hold on to approval and power over others. The thing is, true power and affirmation come from the inside, not the other way around. It's time to work on changing some of your perceptions.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
It's time to work on letting go. There are thoughts and feelings that you have tucked deep within you that need to be released, once and for all. Part of that release may mean forgiving yourself for what's happened or may not have happened up until now. It's time to rewrite your personal narrative.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
Teamwork makes the dream work now. Though now that you're in such high demand, you may find there's a very long list of people looking to joining forces with you. While it may seem tempting, you don't want to spread yourself too thin or give your time and energy to an unfruitful partnership.
