Aries Daily Forecast

Today is a take-no-prisoners kind of day. Feel like you're not getting what you deserve? That's your cue to shake some foundations! Your instincts are on overdrive, so don't hold back. This isn't about blowing up over every little thing; it's about standing your ground like a gladiator. Focus and apply your energy only where you know it counts.

After yesterday's big shifts, there is a chance to pause. In his first full day in direct motion in your communication sector, Jupiter is still at a standstill but also still closely aligned with Mercury, the planet of communication in your friendship sector. The Moon's return to your communication sector tomorrow will be a chance to take these now more open communication lines for a test drive. At the same time, as she settles into her first full day in Aries, Venus is encouraging you to take your time. Venus has returned to give your heart a voice six weeks before your birthday month and new solar year begins, but with the promise that she will stick around until then.

As Venus, the planet of love settles into her first full day in Aries, this is the start of a journey that will take four months to fully play out. Venus has returned for what is normally a 24 day mission to update your romantic and relationship desires and expectations for the coming year, but a retrograde turn will keep the planet of love here, giving her time to not only get to the heart of what you want from love and your relationships but to turn desires into reality.

Resist any urge to turn every argument into a cage match. If your love life feels like a WWE showdown, take a timeout. That fire you've got burning doesn't always need an audience. Treat yourself to some solo therapy—a mirror pep talk or a dance-off in your underwear. Once you've defused the bomb, you'll be ready to return passion to the bedroom, not the battlefield.

With Neptune spending the whole week right on the lunar nodes, this is giving you a unique window into their new 18 month policing of how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off. Neptune is the planet of hopes and dreams so rather than focusing on the challenges the focus will be on the opportunities that having the right balance will bring. At the same time, having the Moon in your income sector is making it easier to work smarter.

The Moon’s first visit to your income sector since Uranus’ direct turn last week comes just as Neptune is crossing the lunar nodes, just weeks into their 18 month policing of how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off. The Moon’s friendly aspect to the South Node before leaving tomorrow will give you a sense of where the money is that will help you work smarter while still taking heed of this timely reminder.

Don’t over-reach yourself or expect too much from your body. The cumulative effect you’ve built up might create tension and anxiety. Remember to take short rest periods and go easy on your body. Try to get by with a sensible mixture of recreational activity, fresh air, relaxation baths and plenty of sleep.
