Each day's horoscope is for your Sun sign, the sign you were born under. Your full chart, with your Moon and Ascendant, goes much further.
Sign dates are approximate, since the Sun changes signs on a slightly different day each year. If you were born on the cusp, your free chart shows which sign is yours.

Aries
Mar 21–Apr 19
Extra drive does more good in a game than in an argument.
The urge to do things your own way runs into what you've agreed to share with others. Mars, your ruler, in Leo, in your 5th house of fun and self-expression, is at odds with the Sun in Scorpio, in your 8th house of joint obligations. Impatience is the risk, more than any real conflict. Put the extra push into something physical, like a pickup game, instead of an argument you'd rather not have.
Taurus
Apr 20–May 20
Time with friends you like makes the week warmer.
The Moon in Pisces, in your 11th house of friendship and hopes, makes good company easy to find. People you like are glad to hear from you, and a simple plan with them can turn out to be the best part of the week. Suggest something low-key for the weekend, like brunch with a couple of friends, and let the details sort themselves out.
Gemini
May 21–Jun 20
Words said in a hurry can sting.
Tasks and talk are both moving fast. Mars in Leo, in your 3rd house of messages and calls, and the Sun in Scorpio, in your 6th house of daily chores, are at odds, and a reply dashed off in a rush can land harder than you meant. The speed itself is useful for getting through the list. Read any tense message twice before you send it, and cut the line you'd least like to hear yourself.
Cancer
Jun 21–Jul 22
Changes you want for yourself are worth letting ripen in private.
Restlessness these months tends to work itself out quietly, out of everyone's sight. Until February 8, 2027, Uranus is moving backward in Gemini, in your 12th house of rest and what goes on behind the scenes. A change you'd like to make in yourself, in how you rest or what you let go of, has time to settle before anyone notices it. Keep it to yourself for now; it usually holds better when it isn't rushed.
Leo
Jul 23–Aug 22
Let small irritations pass before you answer them.
Private matters can get prickly, and pushing hard at home only adds friction. The Sun, your ruler, in Scorpio, in your 4th house of roots, is at odds with Mars in Leo, your sign, in your 1st house. A steadier pace keeps things smooth. Before you react to something that irritates you, wait ten minutes and see whether it still needs an answer.
Virgo
Aug 23–Sep 22
A tricky conversation goes better when you keep it short.
Irritation you've kept to yourself can slip out in your words. The Sun in Scorpio is in your 3rd house of messages, and Mars in Leo, in your 12th house of what goes on out of sight, is at odds with it. A hard talk goes better one point at a time. Take a short walk before you answer anything difficult, and keep the reply to a few lines.
Libra
Sep 23–Oct 22
Small tasks done calmly add up to a good day.
Your routine asks for a gentler pace, with the Moon in Pisces, in your 6th house of chores and self-care. Rushing from task to task wears you out faster than the work itself. Doing small things one at a time, with a bit of care, leaves you with more energy by evening. Tidy the spot where you handle your everyday tasks, even if it's just a corner of the kitchen table.
Scorpio
Oct 23–Nov 21
Your strength shows best when you stay calm.
Someone may expect you to fall in line in public today. The Sun in Scorpio, your sign, in your 1st house, is at odds with Mars, your traditional ruler, in Leo, in your 10th house of public standing. Pushing back harder only adds heat. A level voice and a clear position carry more weight than a sharp reply, and people notice when you don't rise to the bait.
Sagittarius
Nov 22–Dec 21
Someone else's surprises need a little room, and so do your own changes.
The way you deal with one person can shift in fits and starts for a while. Uranus is moving backward in Gemini, in your 7th house of one-on-one ties, until February 8, 2027. Changes there work better tried out than announced. Someone may also change their mind or their plans without much warning. If someone surprises you, ask what's behind it before you decide what you think.
Capricorn
Dec 22–Jan 19
A kind note to someone nearby goes over well.
Small kindnesses travel well with the Moon in Pisces, in your 3rd house of neighbors and short trips. A note slipped under a door, or a quick message to someone a few blocks away, lands warmly. Send a short, friendly word to someone who lives near you, even if it's only to say thanks for something small they did that you noticed.
Aquarius
Jan 20–Feb 18
Hold your ground without raising your voice.
Someone may want things done their way today, and fast. The Sun in Scorpio, in your 10th house of goals and reputation, and Mars in Leo, in your 7th house of one-on-one dealings, are at odds. Your sense of where you're headed can stay intact without a fight. Say what you're willing to do, once and clearly, and leave it there. Repeating it louder rarely helps.
Pisces
Feb 19–Mar 20
You trust your own view today.
An idea you've been turning over is ready for the next step. The Moon in Pisces, your sign, in your 1st house of how you come across, is in sync with the Sun in Scorpio, in your 9th house of learning and beliefs, and the link is strongest at 8:46 p.m. ET. Choose a question you'd like to explore, and look for one good answer before the weekend.
