Things may feel somewhat unpredictable today for the zodiac signs!

As we recover from the bold energy of the Full Moon in Leo yesterday, today’s astrological weather still has some tricks up its sleeves. The Moon in Leo forms a square to Uranus in Taurus, which may have us feeling erratic and unpredictable emotionally. We may feel tempted to make impulsive decisions based on emotion, but it’s important to note that big decisions made today aren’t going to yield expected results—so proceed with caution. 

Check out the signs below (Sun and Rising!) to see what today has in store for you!

Aries

Today feels lighter and a little impulsive, but it’s best to be careful, Aries. With Moon in your 5th House of Creativity and Pleasure square Uranus in your 2nd House of Income and Values, you’re feeling the desire to be seen and heard and aren’t afraid of putting yourself out there. You’re finding new ways to creatively express what matters to you, but be careful making long-term choices based on the excitement you feel in the moment—it won’t pan out the way you want after this feeling wears off. Enjoy yourself, but do not risk everything for a few moments of glory. 

Taurus

You want to be known, but you’ve felt restricted lately, Taurus. With the Moon in your 4th House of Home and Roots square Uranus in your 1st House of Self and Identity, the desire for safety and security is sparked by a desire to be your full self. You’re experiencing some revelations about who you are and what you want, but the fear of not being accepted or understood might feel more daunting. While there may be tension or uncertainty, know that dramatic changes or pushing back hard on other’s opinions likely won’t provide the understanding you want. You don’t have to lay everything out on the table today. Instead, use this feeling to plan ways to embrace this change and slowly introduce it to others. 

Gemini

You’re trying to outrun your mind today, Gemini, but it won’t work. With the Moon in your 3rd House of Communication and Local Community square Uranus in your 12th House of Subconscious and Isolation, you’re likely trying to keep busy to avoid some much-needed introspection. You know it’s necessary, but facing certain feelings and thoughts can be difficult, especially if they are things to unpack and heal from. You don’t have to dive headfirst and solve everything in one day, but it will only become more overwhelming if you keep avoiding this. Some time alone with a journal or a one-on-one conversation with someone you trust could be a good starting place today.

Cancer

You’re feeling torn on where your priorities lie today, Cancer. With the Moon in your 2nd House of Income and Values square Uranus in your 11th House of Friendships and Networking, you have been drawn to more free-spirited, unusual social circles and causes worth your time. Yet, you long for security and don’t want to shake the boat by speaking too publicly about certain issues. You may be challenged on this today, and if you jump to defense, it’s likely to lead to unwanted arguments that get out of hand. It’s important to figure out your values and what you’re willing to do to stand by them—trying to play both sides won’t last forever.

Leo

It could be time for a new path, Leo. With the Moon in your 1st House of Self and Identity square Uranus in your 10th House of Career and Public Image, you could feel more inclined to look into new career options. Your current one may not feel sustainable or isn’t bringing you joy, but change can be difficult. You may become more aware of other talents and skills you possess and how they can be used in unexpected ways. You don’t need to quit your job or make a dramatic exit today—no need to burn bridges that might be beneficial in the future. 

Virgo

You could feel uncertain about your beliefs today, Virgo. With the Moon in your 12th House of Subconscious and Isolation square Uranus in your 9th House of Philosophy, Higher Education, and Travel, you may be more aware of either unconventional ways your belief systems exist in the world currently or the unusual approaches those in your circles are taking—and you aren’t sure whether they align with your own beliefs internally. You may also feel as though the beliefs you’ve held close are shifting, which can threaten the security you’ve always held. Know that beliefs and views are meant to change over time. Trying to cling to old habits won’t stop the world from changing around you.

Libra

The balance between your relationships and friends may be questioned today, Libra. With the Moon in your 11th House of Friendships and Networking square Uranus in your 8th House of Intimacy and Shared Resources, you may feel an unusual or unexpected connection is taking up more of your time, and your friends may feel left out by this. Today may involve you being confronted on this behavior, but how you handle it will affect the future, so choose your words carefully. Hear your friends out, and try to find balance instead of getting defensive. 

Scorpio

You could be feeling misunderstood today, Scorpio. With the Moon in your 10th House of Career and Public Image square Uranus in your 7th House of Partnerships, you’re feeling the pressure and desire to be known for your work—and that may come with long hours or an immense focus on your work life that your current relationships may not understand. You could feel as though they don’t understand or are criticizing you, especially if they don’t have the same goals towards work and career. Emotions can get heated, especially if you go the passive-aggressive route. Don’t say things today that you’ll regret tomorrow.

Sagittarius

You want more out of life but tread lightly on how you approach it, Sagittarius. With the Moon in your 9th House of Philosophy, Higher Education, and Travel square Uranus in your 6th House of Habits, Routines, and Wellness, you may want to transition from your usual 9-5 to a more relaxed, even freelance schedule. You’ve likely considered this for a while, but you may be more frustrated with your usual hours and feel the need to make an impulsive choice. Know that your decisions today may not work out the way you hope. Start searching for new job opportunities, but if you throw everything away on a whim, it could be harder to get where you want to be. 

Capricorn

You’re craving something deeper but not finding it in your usual circles, Capricorn. With the Moon in your 8th House of Intimacy and Shared Resources square Uranus in your 5th House of Creativity and Pleasure, you are ready for something more powerful and a deeper connection, but as of late, you haven’t been able to find it. You could find that changing your social circles or trying new experiences may lead you to different types of people than you’re used to. There may be the temptation to dive all in with the first person you feel sparks with, but ensure they are on the same page—you might end up scaring them off if you get too intense too fast. 

Aquarius

What do you owe your family, Aquarius? With the Moon in your 7th House of Partnerships square Uranus in your 4th House of Home and Roots, unexpected circumstances in your home and family life may create difficulty connecting with partners or friends, and it is likely wearing you thin today. Some situations can’t be helped, but particularly if the family issues aren’t ones that you feel should be placed on you, resentment could grow. It’s okay to figure out what you owe to your family and what you owe to yourself—all your relationships deserve nurturing and growth, so take time to figure out what is fair all around. 

Pisces

You have new ideas but feel they aren’t being heard, Pisces. With the Moon in your 6th house of Habits, Routines, and Wellness square Uranus in your 3rd House of Communication and Local Community, you may stumble upon new ideas or new methods of doing things in your day-to-day. You may feel dismissed by certain people who prefer more traditional methods. If you can introduce new ideas without jeopardizing your job, it could be a good way to show your value. However, remember that undermining others could still have consequences, even if your way is better. If you can’t implement new concepts today, write them down; perhaps they will be useful for the future.
