The dramatic Leo Moon encourages us to express ourselves with a flair. A creative quintile between action-hero Mars and self-disciplined Saturn can restrain an impulsive thought long enough for it to mature into a worthwhile idea. The Moon's tough square to the Sun suggests that we could face a minor crisis today, forcing us to make a critical decision. Luckily, the Moon's entry into analytical Virgo at 8:13 pm EST helps us make the right choice. Aries Your key planet Mars can give you a bit of extra physical energy today as long as you exercise caution. Wasting your time or resources can be draining, but rest assured that this won't have lasting negative impact. You may become more subdued as the day wears on, but be sure to reserve the right to change your mind about a new project if you are so inclined. Taurus You might not understand all the emotional dynamics that are impacting your family relationships today, but you can feel the tension in your body so you know something is going on. You thought you knew what was happening, but now you're not so sure. Don't get discouraged by your lack of clarity. Holding steady may be difficult, yet others will really appreciate your patience. Gemini You might be distracted today by all the things you must do. Compounding the problem is the fact that your feelings may be in conflict with your logical mind, leaving you uncertain as to whether to follow your head or your heart. Although it may seem as if your decision is required immediately, wait as long as you can. Once the Moon enters practical Virgo, you'll be better equipped to choose your new direction. Cancer You should be trying to build on what you already started, but muddled communication could get in the way of your plan today. Taking direct action makes sense as long as you can observe where you slip into old patterns. But leave your convoluted explanations for another day; just make sure that you have enough time to finish what you begin. Leo There is an excellent chance of getting into a disagreement with others who try to wield their power over you today. But direct engagement isn't your most intelligent move, for it simply plays into the hands of authority. Instead, learn everything you can about the situation and then move slowly and with conviction. Obstacles from earlier in the day could magically just drop away. Virgo The Moon squares your key planet Mercury today, creating a strong tension between what you think in your head and what's actually in your heart. It may be challenging to share your emotions because language seems to lack the right words to say what you feel. Be patient with yourself, even if a conversation doesn't go easily. Things will make more sense when the Moon enters your sign later this evening. Libra You have great friends who are eager to get into the party spirit today. But it grows tiring after a while as you think more and more about retreating into your private world. Don't be fooled into thinking that you have an either/or decision in front of you now. You really don't need to choose between the inner and outer worlds; they are one and the same. Scorpio Your traditional ruling planet Mars is given greater authority now by Saturn, transforming the warrior planet into a strategist. You have an uncanny ability to organize complex data and to motivate people to perform specific tasks that weave together into a well-orchestrated action plan. If handed the reins of leadership today, grab them and don't relinquish control no matter what. Sagittarius You have been thinking about the big picture -- something you do very well -- yet today it's time to turn your grandiose ideas into action. Fortunately, courageous Mars is in your adventurous sign now, giving you plenty of energy to accomplish your goals. You are standing at the edge of a very dynamic period of growth, so don't hesitate to do whatever is necessary. Capricorn Your key planet Saturn receives an energetic boost from fiery Mars today, encouraging you to start your own battle, if needed. But this isn't about aggressive conflict; it's about overcoming obstacles that are in your way to a successful outcome. Set your mind on your destination and then don't let anything distract you from your goals. Aquarius Someone who has recently been expressing his or her feelings to you can now turn argumentative. This isn't your idea of fun, yet you should be able to sidestep the conflict if you are diplomatic. Keep in mind that you won't be able to bury your head in the sand. Negotiating an amicable solution to an annoying disagreement is a major improvement over denial or avoidance. Pisces Although you might face a series of confrontations at work today, you might not be able to see what's really behind the squabbles. Your interactions with others aren't what they appear to be now for an unspoken assumption can make communication awkward. Luckily, the Moon's entry into your 7th House of Partners later this evening can serve up enough specific data that you can turn a difficult situation into an easygoing one.
