Following the excitement and power of yesterday’s Solar Eclipse, the cosmic energy takes a practical turn. It’s time to get serious. Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, you’ll feel drawn to order and organisation today. Don’t let anyone throw you off this path. As the Moon moves newly into Virgo, rationality takes centre stage. Enjoy the process of viewing the world with greater realism and less fanciful ideals.
What the stars hold for each sign
Aries (March 21 to April 20): After all the drama of yesterday’s Solar Eclipse in Leo, things take on a practical dimension today, as the Moon moves into the earthy, practical Virgo. The Lunation fired up your passions handsomely, but now reality calls out and a need to juggle resources and details. Then again, no idea can be made more lasting without this, as today can show.
Taurus (April 21 to May 21): The desire to move to somewhere more suitable or to add extra comfort to an existing abode can come to the fore. Within this, you’ll likely want to go for options that align with your earthy appreciation of comfort and style. If upcycling appeals, snaffling something you can repurpose imaginatively can also call out either way, your good taste can shine through.
Gemini (May 22 to June 21): Your words and ideas are going to be in vogue even more over the next six months, and they can prove fortunate too. Whether this is in a personal context, promoting interests, hobbies, or ideas, or professionally. However, today, specifically, someone not as swift as you may prove a bit frustrating by being slower to get your drift. Try to take this in your stride.
Love, money and practical matters
Cancer (June 22 to July 23): Your finances may be enjoying a welcome boost, but equally a sense of abundance can come from appreciating non-material things. This could be enjoying your garden, home-grown vegetables, a stroll in nature, or sharing a meal with a friend. If you do chat to someone, they may also share a snippet of gossip or information that’s probably best kept to yourself.
Leo (July 24 to August 23): Can you still feel the power of the Eclipse? I ask you this, Leo, because it’s the first in your zodiac sign for seven years. Furthermore, with the enthusiastic Jupiter and quick-witted Mercury also aligning brilliantly in your sign and linking to the charming Venus, this gives you a fabulous springboard to showcase your unique talents and flair or start a new venture.
Virgo (August 24 to September 23): The Moon in your sign arcs back to the restless Uranus, and this could leave you feeling unsettled but not be exactly sure why. The recent Eclipse was in the most sensitive part of your chart, and some memories could be coming up, or your dreams may have been particularly vivid, and perhaps some of this energy needs some time to percolate through you.
Relationships and opportunities
Libra (September 24 to October 23): Your guide, the lovely Venus, is right at home in your sign, and beautifully supported by Mercury and Jupiter. This is a wonderful combination for strengthening relationships, an area of real opportunity in the next six months – following on from yesterday’s Eclipse. Even so, today’s sheltered Moon suggests you don’t take on too much, Libra.
Scorpio (October 24 to November 22): The Eclipse may have stirred ambitions that have been quietly building for some time, and today’s Virgo Moon can help you take practical steps to pursue this. Colleagues or a group connection can offer encouragement but remain flexible. Hold the big picture, it will help you to deal with any distractions or minor frustrations that may crop up.
Sagittarius (November 23 to December 21): With your ruler Jupiter combining so positively with chatty Mercury, your appetite for learning, travel or broadening your horizons is stronger than ever. A conversation or email could point towards an exciting future opportunity. Even so, today’s Moon reminds you that success depends on careful preparation. Whilst details can bore you, don’t ignore them today.
Practical steps and savings
Capricorn (December 22 to January 21): While recent events may have encouraged you to think bigger, today’s Virgo Moon supports your natural ability to organise, refine and improve. And financial arrangements, business matters or legal affairs can benefit from your careful, methodical approach. If someone is unpredictable, hold off reacting. Restless vibes will soon pass, and things settle.
Aquarius (January 22 to February 19): Relationships remain an important theme, and today’s influences encourage open, two-way conversations. Mercury and Jupiter enhance your natural gift for hearing others’ perspectives, while Venus brings warmth. Mind, the Moon’s angle to your ruler Uranus could see you want to firm up your personal boundary if someone has become too demanding or clingy.
Pisces (February 20 to March 20): The Virgo Moon shines a light on your closest relationships, making cooperation and clear communication important. However, the Moon’s brief link to Uranus could see someone share a personal revelation unexpectedly, which you may want to take time to think over. Take a look at your everyday costs, too; there is a good chance you can make more savings.
