ARIES
March 21 - April 20
You may have an issue between getting your to-do list perfect and allowing yourself to go with life's flow. Don't let frustration turn into self-criticism as its progress that counts, not perfection. Just keep moving forward regardless as this will build lasting results. Plus, attending to the details keeps you sharp in the moment. Today try to focus on the small steps, but trust the long journey too. -
TAURUS
April 21 - May 21
You'll either want things to be âjust rightâ or realise that some matters can't be controlled. Don't let that frustrate you, instead let it free you. Put effort into what you can work on, then step back and relax. A more stoic outlook brings the steady progress you desire. Blending a sense of perspective with an eye for detail can be the secret to success. As long as you're moving forward perfection doesn't matter. -
GEMINI
May 22 - June 21
A demanding blend of energies pits your restless mind against key responsibilities. You may have an urge to fix everything now, but also consider the need to create boundaries and work on your long-term vision. You may feel discomfort around short-term productivity while weighing up the effort needed to accomplish something big. Just choose one goal, give it your attention, and trust the rest can wait. -
CANCER
June 22 - July 23
Feeling torn between being practical and having the faith that things will turn out, and between what you can do now and what must ripen slowly? Don't let worry cloud your intuition as the planet of limits rewards steady, grounded effort, not overthinking. Blend the ability to analyse situations with a dose of compassion and you'll discover progress flows best when head and heart work together. -
LEO
July 24 - August 23
You know who you are, but you'll also be considering what you can achieve. There are some things like fine print, routines and matters you'd rather delegate that need handling, but you're also being pressed you to face deeper responsibilities, especially around commitments or shared resources. Feel weighed down by tasks that dim your radiant nature? Persistence will help you sparkle even more. -
VIRGO
August 24 - September 23
With the Moon in your sign, your desire for order and improvement are on high beam. Yet strict Saturn in Pisces is looking back at you, reminding you that partnerships and commitments require tolerance and compassion. You may feel pulled between concerning yourself with every detail and surrendering to the flow of what you can't control. The key is steady effort without self-criticism and discipline tempered with kindness. -
LIBRA
September 24 - October 23
A lunar link can nudge your inner critic, urging you to refine details, finish tasks and keep things polished. Across the sky, you're reminded that duty, health and service often require a sense of serenity and that you don't need everything to be exact. You may feel stretched between wanting peace and feeling weighed down by responsibility. Tend to what truly matters while letting go of the fussy extras. -
SCORPIO
October 24 - November 22
Teamwork and friendships are highlighted as well as the little details that keep connections strong. You may wonder whether you should show up for others or protect your own energy. Don't let obligations become burdens, instead, focus on what feels meaningful. Steady effort brings rewards, but doing things for others and resenting it, won't. Choose wisely today and you'll feel all the better for it. -
SAGITTARIUS
November 23 - December 21
There's a focus on career, goals and the little details that need attention. And yet you'll also be drawn back to issues around home, family and emotional roots. You may feel stretched between public responsibilities and private priorities. Avoid scattering your energy and focus on essentials. A well thought out plan today can be a wise long-term strategy. Blend ambition with compassion and good organisation with sensitivity. -
CAPRICORN
December 22 - January 20
You'll find you have an appetite for learning, exploration and perfecting new skills, yet you might also be anchored with responsibilities closer to home. There could be a conflict between the wide horizon and your immediate task list. Don't let restlessness turn into frustration as wisdom lies in pacing yourself. Today, it's less about conquering the mountain and more about relishing each steady, well-placed step upward. -
AQUARIUS
January 21 - February 19
Your attention is drawn to shared resources, commitments, and staying up to date with the small print, but you're reminded to keep your values intact and to know where you stand. You may feel caught between wanting to get it right and realizing that some things just require trust. Avoid being consumed by what you can't control. Progress comes not from pushing harder, but from aligning effort with purpose. -
PISCES
February 22 - March 20
Today relationships, responsibilities and reality checks are highlighted. You may feel pulled between dreamy ideals and practical demands and between what you wish for and what actually works. Don't see this as conflict but more as a reset. The best way lies in choosing well-planned moves over sweeping gestures. Progress may feel slow, but it's solid and you'll sashay forward with quiet efficiency.
