Horoscope For Today: Sunday, October 27, 2027

Today the moon continues its transit through detailed and practical Virgo, inspiring a sense of accomplishment and encouraging productivity. Everything is relatively calm in the heavens until 11:39 AM EST, when the moon makes a tense square to Venus in Sagittarius at 11°.

While our emotional states will be more regulated than usual, something fundamentally at odds with this rationality will threaten to overwhelm us: our free-wheeling drive for pleasure and romance, which has been heightened ever since the morning star—Venus—entered the sign of the archer.

Expect distractions and temptations of both the materialistic and sensual sort. If you have time to indulge in such things, go ahead, especially if you’re already secure in a partnership. But be wary of any invitation or offer that requires you to drop your long-term obligations for short-term spontaneity. If you are making plans to travel to meet a new long-distance lover, do so cautiously, with understanding of potential obstacles and worst-case scenarios.

Things get considerably more intense at 1:56 PM, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in Pisces at 13°. As the planet of restrictions, delays, and boundaries faces off with the sensitive moon, we’re all given a serious reality check.

If your hopes and dreams are dashed, remember that there is always a much better and grander plan in motion that we can’t see until it unfolds. What’s more, since Saturn is retrograde, the “no” you receive this afternoon might eventually be a “yes”—you’ll just need to wait it out until the planet known for its tough love is direct again.

What area of your life is going to be impacted by these potentially disappointing aspects today? Read on according to your rising sign for a play-by-play. Remember that something that seems like the end of the world today might not even cross your mind a year from now. Trust in divine timing and accept closed doors with grace and understanding; there is always another one bound to open soon enough.

Aries

This morning, as the moon cruises through your sixth house, your focus is directed on the mundane tasks you need to complete. However, just before noon, it will make a square to Venus in your ninth house, tempting you to explore lofty philosophical and ideological concepts rather than staying grounded in material reality, where you are specifically needed today. If you are prone to spiritual psychosis, avoid TikTok tarot readers and angel numbers today. Trust instead in the advice of those around you. Later this afternoon, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your twelfth house, your mental health may suffer as a result of all this ruminating. Try to remain unswayed by the influence of spiritual leaders, moral scrupulosity, and obsessive thoughts, as they will only distract you from your purpose in the here and now.

Taurus

Today the moon continues its transit through your fifth house, bringing an energizing and refreshing energy to your creative and romantic pursuits. However, you could be too easily swayed by a tantalizing offer—either financial, romantic, or both. Before you allow your lover to whisk you away on a trip abroad, consider the square to Venus in your eighth house, which will occur late this morning. You may learn that your partner is lying about their assets or has nefarious sexual intentions. By mid-afternoon, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your eleventh house, you’ll have clarity on what to do in this situation: stay open to tough love from your closest friends and colleagues, whose unbiased perspective will be useful.

Gemini

As the moon makes its way through your fourth house, you’ll probably feel the urge to have a cozy day at home and binge your favorite comfort show from the 2000s, if you don’t already have plans with family. It’s a day to stay inside and enjoy small domestic pleasures. Be wary late this morning when the moon squares Venus in your seventh house, reflecting tension between your partner’s spontaneous desires and your family traditions. Don’t allow yourself to be pulled too far in either direction; relationships are all about compromise. The choices you make today will have drastic implications on your public image. By mid-afternoon the moon will be making an opposition to retrograde Saturn in your tenth house; it’s wise to surrender your desire to control the narrative and allow the truth to come out as it will. If you have made wise, conscientious decisions, you will come out on top.

Cancer

This morning the moon continues its transit through your third house, giving you a competitive edge if you have to communicate something of significance. While some of you will deliver messages to your local community, others will be forced to play the role of mediator in family conflicts. When the moon forms a square to Venus in your sixth house, however, an alluring offer from within your workplace might come your way, such as a flirtatious text from your office crush or a chance to tag along on the work trip to LA. Try not to get your hopes too high, no matter how much you’re being wooed; you might be up against a test from the universe to see how well you can handle disappointment—and cultivate patience. You’ll know for sure whether everything is legit by mid-afternoon, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your ninth house. At this point you’ll be able to distinguish whether the much-coveted opportunity is aligned with your convictions or has some strings attached—such as selling out.

Leo

Money is on your mind this morning as the moon completes its transit through your second house, and you’ll be diligent at checking everything off your to-do list. It’s a good thing, too, since the cosmos will throw some wrenches in your plans just before noon, when the moon squares off against Venus in your fifth house. You’ll be torn between productivity and pleasure, future-planning and momentary fun, as an opportunity arises that seems too good to possibly turn down—even if it cuts into your carefully planned budget. If your partner suggests a sudden getaway or you get tempted by a flash sale on Poshmark, take a moment to consider whether the momentary dopamine rush is worth it. The moon will then make an opposition to retrograde Saturn in your eighth house, bringing you a harsh reality check regarding your debts and finances. At this point in time, it’s best to plan for the long term and forego the quick and easy road to pleasure.

Virgo

The moon is finishing off its transit through your first house, where it has been illuminating all of your best physical qualities and giving you a more approachable vibe. Early this morning you can easily take advantage of this energy to communicate ideas to a large group of people and assert your influence over a crowd. However, late morning brings an awkward, tense square between the moon and Venus in your fourth house, drawing your attention to your home and family. If you’ve been feeling more confident in general, you might decide that your home needs beautifying too. If you simply rearrange the furniture, there might not be an issue; if you decide to order several thousand dollars’ worth of brand-new home goods, there probably will be. Avoid the temptation to pull the trigger on the first thing that looks shiny and exciting. By mid-afternoon, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your seventh house, your partner will make their feelings very clear, and your recklessness could instigate an argument. If you’re single, you might receive the disapproval from your best friend instead. Either way, you’d do well to avoid making any impulse decisions, at least until you’ve talked things through with someone who is guaranteed to give you the brutally honest truth.

Libra

As the moon completes its transit through your twelfth house, your dreams and intuition provide you with guidance and direction, which will serve you well as you navigate the two major curveballs the universe has for you today. First, there’s the square between the moon and Venus in your third house, which takes place right before noon; you can anticipate struggles to connect verbally with your local community and extended family, even if you’re normally charismatic and able to charm your way out of any situation. A relative might also suggest over-indulgence in vice, all the while knowing that you’re trying to get clean or sober. If you’re committed to your new path, don’t allow your family to peer-pressure you right back into old habits. Then comes the opposition between the moon and retrograde Saturn in your sixth house this afternoon, reflecting your strength and maturity in the area of health and routine. Today will present some significant challenges to your convictions, but if you remain strong, you’ll be able to pull through—and feel physically and mentally better as a result.

Scorpio

The moon is cruising through your eleventh house this morning, giving you a boost of popularity and influence in your larger social network. Use the opportunity to meet up with friends and have some fulfilling conversations at brunch. But set limits on the number of mimosas you buy. Later this morning, the moon squares off with Venus in your second house, presenting you with the opportunity to be everyone’s favorite reckless spender. Take note of whether your friends are looking to you to pick up the tab; you might be trying to fill a psychic void by buying their affection. Have fun, indulge a bit, but stay level-headed—and don’t get messy drunk if you can help it. This afternoon, the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your fifth house, teaching you the importance of being mature in the face of temptation. Try to imagine your inner child observing your actions today: would they be proud of the person you’ve become, or ashamed that you’re acting so callously?

Sagittarius

The spotlight continues to shine on you as the moon makes its way through your tenth house, giving you an ideal opportunity to launch a new business, step into a leadership role, or simply go out and schmooze. You’ll be giving off powerful and potentially intimidating vibes. However, if you have to engage a number of people, try to do it early this morning; just before noon, when the moon forms a tense square with Venus in your first house, your emotions could potentially influence your credibility. Stay professional and avoid giving into the impulse to doomscroll or read negative comments before getting in front of a crowd, since you’ll be feeling more sensitive and reactionary than normal. Mid-afternoon, when the moon opposes retrograde Saturn in your fourth house, you’ll be hoping for a reprieve from the drama at home, only to find that a whole host of responsibilities have piled up there, too. Try not to react and throw blame at the other members of the household. And if your actual family starts blowing up the group chat, do your best to remain stoic and calm. Avoid taking sides unless it’s blatantly clear who is in the wrong.

Capricorn

The moon in your ninth house opens your mind to all sorts of philosophical and spiritual ideals, helping you broaden your perspective. It’s a good day to go into a deep Wikipedia rabbit hole or attend a lecture on a subject you’re interested in. As you’re expanding your knowledge, though, the moon will square off with Venus in your twelfth house, dredging up subconscious fears and revealing your shadow self—either with or without the help of mind-altering substances. This isn’t a bad day to go on a shamanic quest of sorts, but accept the fact that you might learn some uncomfortable things about yourself in the process. In the afternoon, the moon will make an opposition with retrograde Saturn in your third house, influencing the way you process and speak about your emotions. Seek the guidance of wiser and more mature mentors in your local community—or family—rather than attempt to handle your trauma all on your own.

Aquarius

You’re thinking about dark and profound topics today as the moon finishes its transit through your eighth house. You’re also potentially working through the details of an inheritance or managing your debts, a fact of life that no one enjoys, exactly, but is still nonetheless necessary for survival in society. This morning, the moon forms a square with Venus in your eleventh house, presenting any number of opportunities from your social or professional network to get out and socialize—but if their idea of fun is going to tempt you into vice, you’re better off not getting involved. Your deeper emotions might get the better of you, encouraging you to drink to excess or spend more money than you can reasonably afford. Mid-afternoon, the moon will oppose retrograde Saturn in your second house, clarifying your financial situation and giving you the reality check you desperately need.

Pisces

Your closest relationships take precedence over everything else as the moon cruises through your seventh house, but remember to prioritize yourself, too. If you struggle to find interpersonal harmony late this morning, you can blame the moon’s square with Venus in your tenth house. If you’re offered a lucrative, life-changing opportunity, tread very carefully—whether your partner is proposing an impromptu elopement or your boss wants to fly you halfway across the world with the company card at your disposal, you should keep in mind that there is always a catch. Nothing is as idyllic as it seems. However, you won’t have to stress about your decision for long, since the moon will oppose retrograde Saturn in your first house this afternoon, giving you both clarity and a sense of maturity. As Saturn, the planet of restrictions and growth, has been transiting your first house over the past year and a half, you’ve been gaining more responsibility—and learning how to manage it. You probably know by now that nothing is exactly as it seems.
