The Moon in Cancer is extremely busy today! The morning has a comfortable, sleepy haze to it, with the Moon contacting dreamy Neptune in a gentle way at 10:09 AM. Things get a little stressful at 5:06 PM when the Moon challenges the Sun—are our emotions in line with the plan? Things ease up soon after, the Moon contacts lucky, abundant Jupiter at 5:41 PM. Dinnertime will be interesting; the Moon faces off with the lord of the underworld, Pluto at 8:13 PM. Be prepared for dark and possibly transformative conversation. Also, third wheels may tag along on your date. There‘s an equal chance they‘ll cause stress, or be excellent mediators.

Aries

The Moon is in domestic, sensitive Cancer, and home is on your mind. Away from your nest? You might have mixed feelings about that today. This evening‘s bound to be transformative, especially around how people see you.

Taurus

Today is a particularly social, creative day for you. Even the stressful things that come up have potential to be sources of inspiration—or at least, something you can laugh about later. Really deep conversations will come up tonight.

Gemini

You‘re thinking a lot about your finances, or some other material concern, today. It‘ll be stressful, sure, but you may have a breakthrough as well—especially later this evening, when you might meet with a powerful person.

Cancer

The Moon is in your sign today, Cancer! Today‘s filled with some ups and downs, but you‘re no stranger to being moody, right Cancer? Tonight’s particularly powerful and sexy: Who are you planning on meeting tonight?

Leo

Today has potential to be annoying, Leo. To prevent frustration, channel your energy toward completing your chores and assignments—you‘ll be happy to have the head start on work and your responsibilities tomorrow when the week begins.

Virgo

Today is a dreamy yet confusing day around relationships, both romantic and otherwise. This evening is especially powerful. An important, transformative conversation may take place—one that covers a topic you might usually be a little scared to consider.

Libra

You’re typically a very logical person, Libra, but today you have lots of feelings and intuitive hunches around your career, your goals, and your reputation. Mercury is retrograde in your sign, so nothing‘s set in stone; however, the impressions you get today do mean something.

Scorpio

For most of history, your sign was ruled by Mars (you do have a built in weapon, scorpion). Since Pluto‘s discovery, though, you‘ve been associated with the lord of the underworld. Pluto and the sensitive Moon connect today, which will be intense and transformative.

Sagittarius

With Mercury retrograde in social, friendly Libra, you‘ve been thinking a lot about your social circle and whom you want to connect with. You‘ve likely dumped a few friends over the last week, too. Sag: Are there any old friends you want to reconnect with?

Capricorn

The people you spend time with today will have lots of mood swings, Capricorn, but it‘s still worth it to spend time with them. Plenty of deep philosophical conversations will go down today. This evening is really sensitive around your close relationships: Be careful with people‘s feelings.

Aquarius

You’re great at expressing yourself, but you might fumble with your words this morning, Aquarius. Also, if you have a weird feeling about someone today, trust it! Shady characters creep their way on to the scene tonight.

Pisces

The best way you can take advantage of today‘s cosmic weather is to explore. Get out of town if you can, or at least go to a neighborhood close by that you haven’t checked out yet. Bring someone you want to get to know better—it will be a transformative bonding experience.
