Your Horoscope For Today: Saturday, May 11, 2024

With the moon officially moving into Cancer today, this may be a turbulent time for certain signs and a highly beneficial day for others. The moon is slowly moving towards a New Moon, currently in its waxing state, which signifies potential for growth and significant development, particularly towards moon-connected signs (that’s you, Cancer!). 

Pluto is still in retrograde in Aquarius, which may be affecting the reflective and intuitive states of many signs, especially Aquarius sun, moon, and rising signs. With four planets in Taurus and Mars at the 7th degree in Aries, you may be feeling higher levels of confidence and self-assuredness, especially if you have connections to the Sun, Venus, or Mars. 

Some signs may experience emotional turbulence or uncertainty in their professional or personal pursuits; these feelings are fortunately likely to be short-lived, so accept today as a period of flux and allow yourself to rest if these emotions apply to your sign. Fortunately, today is also likely to be a period of renewed energy, which means that your sign may benefit from self-care and complete rest today.

With the moon in Cancer, spiritual practices may be particularly effective today. You may also receive divine guidance from the moon or experience renewed energy in your relationships.

Aries

Mars is in Aries on May 11th, which means Aries signs will receive extra power and confidence. Aries rising signs may notice a new urge for self-expression. You will feel strong and sure of yourself, but you will also be highly impatient, which could lead to moodiness around others. Reel in your impulsivity for today; you may feel like taking risks under the influence of Mars, so remain cautious under planetary influence. 

Taurus

Taurus, your sign is under the influence of the Sun today. You’ll notice that your typical Taurus traits of seeking comfort, being stubborn, and remaining grounded will be accentuated by the planets in transit today. Since Venus is naturally in your sign’s house this month, you will also notice amplified Venus traits today – particularly if you are a Taurus rising or sun sign. Your sense of aesthetics will be heightened and you may notice an urge to spend more money today.

Gemini

Gemini, the moon is transiting out of your sign today. You may feel that your emotions are suddenly dulled during this transition or that you feel uncertain of yourself. Moon in Gemini can be turbulent, especially for your sign, and you may have had an unconscious period of adjustment that you now have to get used to again once the moon moves to Cancer. Take today as a period of flux and a requirement to rest.

Cancer

Cancer, the moon is moving to your sign today. This will birth a deep period of new emotions for you as the moon makes its transition towards your sign. As your ruling planet, the moon guides you emotionally and spiritually, making this a time of high spiritual enlightenment with possibility to receive divine guidance from your ruling planet. If you practice spirituality, you may want to align these practices with the movement of the moon today. The moon is waxing as it moves to Cancer, which means a period of heightened growth for your sign.

Leo

Leo, today’s focus may be on your relationships. You may feel particularly romantic or endeared towards your partner; today may be a good time for you to refocus on your romantic life. Today is a time for hopeless romanticism and commitment. However, you may also struggle with reeling in your emotions when it comes to new romantic relationships and friendships. For you, the Sun’s placement today can be overwhelming when it comes to your emotions, making it difficult to keep a clear head; when it comes to your personal relationships, communication is key.

Virgo

Virgo, you may feel an overwhelming need for control today. When your perfectionism spirals, you may find it difficult to reel yourself in. You may experience frustration with others’ work or contributions towards your goals. Today may be a time of impatience, bringing you feelings of inadequacy. Do not fear today’s flux, because it will bring you more stable emotions in the future. Identify your biggest anxieties for periods of self-reflection in the future; do not attempt to make sense of your emotions today.

Libra

Libra, your ruling planet is still in Taurus today. You may find that you have strong urges to pursue a romantic relationship or feel a new sense of growth and dedication within your existing relationships. Today especially may bring you an opportunity to connect with an old flame or meet a connection that will eventually become special to you. Look out for feelings of inadequacy or jealousy when it comes to your romantic relationships; today is about fostering security and hope.

Scorpio

Scorpio, you may feel more grounded in yourself, with a heightened intuition and more of an urge than usual to reflect on your recent actions and subconscious desires. With this also comes the feeling that you may need to keep more to yourself than usual; despite already being a naturally private sign, you may find yourself avoiding others today and preventing situations where you would normally have to open up a little. Today, you may want to allow yourself to follow the urge to avoid conversation with others; however, you will need to address this desire within the week if it continues.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius, you may feel more grounded than usual today. Though you’ve probably noticed that you’ve had strong urges to travel or be spontaneous lately, you may enter a brief period of ‘nesting’ today, where you feel the impulse to hole up for a little while. With your ruling planet still in Taurus at the 15th degree, this is normal; depending on your current emotional state, you may experience this urge very strongly or hardly feel it at all. Focus on providing yourself with a stable, calming environment to work and rest in today. Allow yourself access to creature comforts you find important. Engaging in self-care may also calm the urgent need for comfort. 

Capricorn

With Saturn still in Pisces, you may feel occasional adjustments in your sense of self or creative personality today, Capricorn. Your professional work will remain mostly unaffected by this; you may feel a sense of urgency towards completing small tasks or feel the need to suddenly reassess your goals. Use the drive and power you receive from today to put effort into new pursuits; you may receive divine inspiration towards new projects or feel the urge to recommit to a goal you have discarded in the past. Use this energy wisely today, Capricorn.

Aquarius

Aquarius, you will find new inspiration in many of your pursuits today. If you have been experiencing creative blocks, today is a good time to refocus your efforts on these discarded projects; you will likely find yourself with new ideas, even with projects that have long been stagnant. Work of a creative or personal nature may be especially powerful for you today; much of your motivation will come from your most meaningful ideas and projects.

Pisces

Pisces, today will be a time of turbulence for your sign. With Saturn at the 17th degree, you may feel unstable or uncertain about your creative pursuits or professional life. At the same time, you may also be presented a rare opportunity you have been looking for. Though you may struggle to find your balance today, it’s important for you to stay alert towards new opportunities and ideas, as they may be easy to miss. Don’t be afraid to discard your usual routine and ask questions, as these may lead you to new paths you previously have not uncovered.
