Horoscope For Today: Sunday, October 12, 2025

To understand today’s energy, we have to turn our attention to the moon, which swims into Cancer at around 6:37 a.m. EST. Cancer, a zodiac sign that is ruled by the moon, is about to root its deep emotions into our lives over the next few days—and depending on your sun and rising sign, here’s how you can prepare for it.

Aries

Today’s Cancerean energy is forcing you to focus on your domestic affairs. Right now is about building your home base and deal with family conflicts you may have been trying to avoid. More than anything, though, you’re searching for a sense of security—in your home, in your relationships, and in yourself.

Taurus

Things are getting unusually busy for you, Taurus—it’s like all the little chores and errands are all starting to add up. It doesn’t help that you’re feeling restless and in need of social interaction, so don’t be afraid to let some of your chores go to the wayward as you instead indulge in this fun, creative energy.

Gemini

You’re feeling deeply in need of security today—emotionally, yes, but also perhaps financially. Money matters are cutting deeper than usual, and you may feel like you don’t have enough—or, worse, that you yourself aren’t enough. This is definitely a time to lay low and try to stay out of your own head.

Cancer

The moon in your zodiac sign makes you feel powerful today, Cancer—but your ego might be easily bruised. You’re ready to be out in the world, but you’re also extra sensitive about the way you’re being viewed—and about the energy other people are putting out. You might take things more personally than necessary, which is why it’s important to know your limits and pull yourself away from emotionally draining situations.

Leo

You might feel a little less social than usual today, Leo, instead preferring to look inward and explore your own emotional landscape. You might be deep in your feels, or you might just recognize that you’ve burnt yourself out and need some much-needed self-care. Whatever it is, don’t be afraid to take time for yourself. The spotlight will be waiting for when you’re ready to return to it.

Virgo

Today, your social groups and support systems are more important to you than ever. You might find yourself choosing to spend time with friends that you might otherwise want to spend alone, and you’re ready to start networking with new people to further your collective goals. Get out into the world—just maybe choose to spend your time with like-minded people, because you’re more sensitive about what other people have to say than usual.

Libra

Right now, you’re putting a lot of focus on your public image, especially in terms of your career. You want recognition for your hard work, and if you aren’t getting it, you might feel more depressed about it than usual. You want to be noticed and respected—and if you don’t feel like you are, it could even mess with your self-esteem. Just be careful about letting how the world views you (or even just how you believe it does) change how you view yourself.

Scorpio

Today, you might feel hyperfocused on growth—on expanding your horizons or even personal development. “Freedom” is a big concept for you right now, because you don’t want to be trapped by conventions or even by your own comfort zone. You might feel restless or even jaded with your current position in life, which means that it might be time to shake things up and break out of the mold—at least just for now.

Sagittarius

Today, you’re most interested in deep connections. While you’re often more drawn to lighthearted topics, you’re not compelled by shallowness at the moment—you want purpose, meaning, and intensity. That being said, this energy can be heavy, causing you to overreact or feel more sensitive than usual. You might even feel withdrawn—but that’s okay. Take some time for yourself if you need to.

Capricorn

It’s an important time for your relationships, Capricorn, especially your romantic ones. They’re on the front of your mind right now, which could be a good or bad thing—if there have been conflicts you’ve been avoiding or overlooking, it’s going to be time to finally face the music. You might even feel more sensitive to your partner, as if their emotions are affecting your own. That being said, if there aren’t any points of tension between you, this can be an incredibly beautiful, harmonious time in your partnership.

Aquarius

Today, you’re ready to lock in and master your craft—or even just get your life together. You’re putting aside your emotions so you can focus on working toward your goals and bettering your own health. If you’ve been neglecting yourself, you’re going to notice it more than usual, and it might lead to you reorganizing everything around you.

Pisces

It’s time to let your artistic heart shine, Pisces—the moon is making you feel more expressive than usual today, and that means a shift in focus toward your artistic pursuits. You might even feel more confident, ready to put your work and yourself out into the world. If you’re in a more romantic mood than usual, you can also blame the moon—this flirty energy might make you want to start scheduling dates and meeting new people. Have fun!
