Aries

March 21 to 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.

Today’s celestial guidance for Aries
Taurus

April 21 to May 21

You’ll either want things to be “just right” 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.

Today’s planetary forecast for Taurus
Gemini

May 22 to 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.

Leo

July 24 to 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.

Your daily zodiac insight for Leo
Virgo

August 24 to 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 to 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 to 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 to 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.

Capricorn

December 22 to 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.
