1/10 Horoscopes from Beliefnet

The rather loud and proud Leo Moon gives way to a gentler and more cautious state of affairs as the Moon enters analytical Virgo at 9:36 pm EST. Virgo is an earth sign, turning our needs toward practical matters. We aren't satisfied with the incoming information. We need to be critical enough to separate the useful information from the noise. Since the key planet of Virgo is Mercury--and Mercury is now traveling forward again through the zodiac--we can expect all aspects of communication to be emphasized for the next few days.

ARIES (March 20–April 19):

You're still riding a wave of optimism, but once again the energies are beginning to shift. You are more connected with your feelings today and may want to put something out into the open in a playful and spontaneous way. Your sense of drama is heightened and you can play your hand as if you were a hero in a classical Greek drama. By day's end, however, you may be slightly embarrassed at your overstated position.



TAURUS (April 20–May 20):

Your idea of helping someone may be based on your best intentions, but you'll need to be careful as you execute your plan. You can inadvertently take too much into your own hands, and although you might be very competent in your helping activities, your actions could make someone else feel rather powerless. The best help you can give now is listening. Jump in physically only when you are asked.



GEMINI (May 21–June 20):

You usually do well with lots of information streaming into your life. You could even be an info-addict. Now, however, it's become more important to decide which data is valid, instead of just figuring out where to put it. You cannot hold onto everything and you'll need to do some critical thinking during this process. Don't say too much until you've thought about what doesn't have to be communicated.

CANCER (June 21–July 22):

You become more pensive as the day goes on, but this isn't about depression. You are concerned now in a very practical way about what you can do to ease the pain of a loved one. As kindhearted and nurturing as this may be, you may also be unconsciously taking care of yourself. Look within to see what old incurable hurts are salved as you project your love outward onto someone else's wounds.



LEO (July 23–August 22):

You might have some difficulty today trying to separate your own feelings from someone else's. It's like you are trying to make everything okay, so you take on the feelings of someone close to you and then try to fix them. This might sound like a kind thing to do, but it won't necessarily help the other person feel better. And it's more than likely going to make you feel worse. Practice staying aware of your own feeling before you start to work on others.



VIRGO (August 23–September 22):

Your soul has a purpose that may be beyond the work-a-day world, beyond your career goals and outside of your family interests. Some might say it is your life purpose. Now, more than other times, you could be in touch with this purpose. Spend time today thinking about your life from a philosophical perspective. Create long-term goals that are not about the mundane things you are typically mired in, but instead are about ways to enrich your stay on planet Earth.

LIBRA (September 23–October 22):

You are moving into a few days of emotional isolation prior to letting those close to you know exactly how you feel. You are still playing in the social world, at least until later in the day, but you may already be closing the doors to your inner worlds. It's not that you won't be feeling what's going on. You will. It's just that you need time to think things over before you share them with others.



SCORPIO (October 23–November 22):

You may be more willing to indulge your own feelings now, but it could get confusing as the barriers between you and a loved one become harder to discern. This lack of boundaries might sound like a good idea--especially in love--but it makes things difficult as you cannot tell which feelings are yours and which really belong to the other person. Be careful now. You could make a decision that feels so right, but isn't good for you in the long run.



SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21):

You have an important role to play and it could bring you directly into the spotlight, where others will appreciate your contribution. There is a practical side to your efforts now and even the possibility of financial reward. Although you don't mind the attention, and you certainly wouldn't mind the money, this is something you'll do because you want to do it. In order for you to make the most of this situation, don't be afraid to show your vulnerability. It won't be used against you. If anything, it will make you more accessible to others and can actually help your cause.

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19):

As we go through life, we experience events that cause pain. Most of us have wounds from the past--places where we carry hurt that doesn't go away. Sometimes we have opportunities to help someone else or to ease their pain. You are in such a phase now. But it's not just about helping someone else to heal. In the process, you can actually heal your own incurable wounds. It's never too late to process old hurts, even if we have to help someone else in order to help ourselves.



AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18):

Yesterday's problems become today's grist for the mill. The issues you have been facing can now settle in and become deeper. Perhaps you're already working on a solution. Perhaps there is no easy solution in sight. Either way, you would do best to take this out of the logical and thinking realm and into the emotional realm. The answer to your questions will come from your feelings and not from analytical research. Sure, your thoughts will still be present--after all, you are a thinker. But the truth you need to know will be rising up from the somatic realms of irrational feelings.



PISCES (February 19–March 19):

Your day could start out normally enough, but as it progresses, you feel an underlying tension that continues to build. There's no easy way out of this, but somehow, later in the day, a bolt of awareness shoots through your brain and the tension is magically alleviated. It's like being struck by the lightning of knowledge. You have what's known as an "Aha!" experience. And then the cleanup happens. Your mind goes into overdrive as you analyze all that has happened.
