Aries
March 21 to April 20
Battling uphill? If so, it could lead to a turning point and an important decision, Aries. You may be at the point of giving up on something, but a friend’s inspiring words could be all it takes to encourage you onward. If you experience a dip in energy, try to pace yourself. Instead of focusing on how much there is to do, think about how amazing it will be when you get this done.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
You may be at a disadvantage if you feel powerless to do anything about a situation. Even though this issue could come to a head today, you may have a much firmer grip on it than you think, and be quite capable of handling it. The Quarter Moon in a high-flying zone is perfect for seizing the moment and making the decision you feel deep down is the best for you.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
If you’re having trouble knowing what to do next, then relax Gemini, and do something enjoyable that takes your mind off your current dilemma. Preferably get involved in activities that are so absorbing, you forget about everything and are completely at one with the task in hand. During this time the answer you seek may flash into your mind. Let go, don’t overthink.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Today’s Quarter Moon could find you mulling over a social connection, and wondering if it’s worth continuing. But before you cut ties, perhaps you should give this person another chance. With Mercury retrograde and soon to turn direct, you may have got the wrong end of the stick. The coming week or so might reveal another side to them that you will find quite charming.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
There may be people who are hoping you won’t succeed, but they seem to be in the minority. If today’s lunar phase reveals anything, it’s that you have friends who are ready to do anything for you, if you ask. If you need assistance with something, don’t hesitate. They may already be wondering why you don’t call out to them more often, as they’re always there for you, Leo.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
You could feel very frustrated by someone, which may be due to aspects with the cautious energies of Saturn. If they won’t co-operate, what will you do? You might need to use some savvy tactics if you’re to get the outcome you seek. Perhaps you haven’t given them enough information and they can’t commit until you do. A friendly chat could help you finalize a plan and get going.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Energy levels can dip, and you may feel more inclined to rest than get on with your day. And yet the Mercury/Saturn tie and its combination with a Quarter Moon, could inspire you to think about how you might make better use of your time. With some tweaking, you may get a better work/life balance and a chance to do more of those things you love. Romance wise, something is in the air.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Keen to collaborate with others whose ideas are truly inspiring? The relationships you forge and experiences you have, might make going ahead very worthwhile. Another more edgy tie, could see you rushing to take advantage of an opportunity that seems a lot of hard work. If it’s important and you really want the result, you’ll continue. Can it wait? Put it on the backburner.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Mercury’s link to Saturn coincides with a Quarter Moon, and could make it difficult to forge ahead unless you push yourself. What you need to do may not seem enjoyable or desirable but more a duty that you would prefer to ignore. If you stop thinking about it quite so much and just get on with it, you’ll breeze through, and will enjoy the sense of relief that follows, Archer.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
The Moon/Uranus angle could find you eager to splurge on something that will make the day interesting, especially if it’s a tech gadget that has practical as well as entertainment value. You’ll be fully absorbed as you learn how to use it, and it could make a startling difference to your life. Be discerning though, as something bought in haste could fail to please, Capricorn.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Do you need time to yourself? It may be that with a little self-care thrown in, you could feel much restored. Is there something you need answers to? Quiet reflection might still restless thoughts Aquarius, and allow creative solutions to bubble up from deep within you. The Quarter Moon in your sign suggests stepping back from life to get your bearings and to enjoy some pampering.

February 20 to March 20
The Quarter Moon’s tie to Uranus could coincide with an unexpected invite that opens a new social world. If you’re ready to enjoy fresh experiences, this can be your chance. Although you may have never mixed in these circles before, you’ll feel at home and be eager for more. This is a chance to connect with kindred spirits. You don’t have to explain, just be yourself, Pisces.
