Aries
Mars walks beside the giant
The moon moves into your sector of far horizons, learning and faith at 2:36 a.m. Central and stays there all day.
Tuesday belongs to Mars, your ruler, and this morning he shines high in the south before dawn, close beside bright Jupiter in your sector of joy, play and creative fire. The two draw nearer each morning until Sunday. You may feel a warm pull toward something you love doing for its own sake. Follow it, even for a little while. Courage does not always look like a battle. Sometimes it looks like play.
The moon, a thin crescent too close to the Sun to see, travels today through your sector of study, travel and big questions. Saturn and Neptune are still moving backward through your own sign, so let your plans grow slowly and kindly. One brave question, asked with an open heart, can carry you farther today than a hundred quick answers.
A small act for today
Ask one person a question about their life that you have always wondered about, and listen to the whole answer.
Ask yourself
What would I try if I trusted that I could learn as I go?

Taurus
steady hands, shared things
The moon moves into your sector of shared resources and deep trust at 2:36 a.m. Central and stays there all day.
Today the young moon passes through the most private part of your chart, where shared money, trust and closeness live. Something that belongs to you and another person, a budget, a borrowed thing or a quiet arrangement, may want a gentle look. You do not need to fix it all today. Simply notice where things feel even and where they feel heavy.
Your ruler Venus, still retrograde in your sector of daily work, turns direct on Friday evening, the 13th. Until then, let decisions ripen. Mars and Jupiter shine together before dawn at the root of your chart, your sector of home and family, warming the place you return to. On Mars's day, your courage can be the steady kind: one honest conversation, held kindly.
A small act for today
Write down one thing you share with someone, and one small way you could make it feel more fair to you both.
Ask yourself
Where do I give more than I can comfortably carry, and where do I hold back?

The moon moves into your partnership sector, opposite your sign, at 2:36 a.m. Central and stays there all day.
The crescent moon has crossed to the far side of your chart, into the sector of partners, close friends and the people who meet you face to face. Today, someone else's view may help you see your own more clearly. Let them finish their sentence before you begin yours. You are so quick, Gemini. A slower answer may be the kindest gift you give today.
Mars and Jupiter shine together in your sector of words and messages, so what you say carries extra warmth and weight this week.

Say the true thing simply, and let it land softly.
A small act for today

What do I hear when I let someone else speak first?

small chores, done with love

Your ruler the moon is only a day past new, a crescent too slim to see, and today she moves through your sector of routines, work and everyday care.

Small chores, done with love, are a quiet kind of devotion.
On Mars's day, courage may look like keeping a gentle promise to yourself, such as an earlier night or an unhurried lunch. Mars and Jupiter shine before dawn in your sector of worth and resources.

two bright lights in your sign
The moon moves into your sector of joy, play and creativity at 2:36 a.m. Central and stays there all day.
Before dawn, Mars and Jupiter shine high in the south, and both are travelling through your own sign. On Mars's day, that is a great deal of fire for one heart to hold.

The young moon moves today through your sector of play, romance and creative delight, a fellow fire sign cheering you on.
Your ruler the Sun still sits at the root of your chart, in your sector of home and family, so your boldness has a soft place to come back to. Mars and Jupiter will be closest on Sunday the 15th. Until then, let courage be playful rather than proving. Make something, sing something, or laugh at something with someone you love.
A small act for today
Put on one song you love and let yourself move to it, or simply tap the rhythm with your hands while seated.
Ask yourself
Where in my life am I asking for applause, and where am I simply playing?

allowed to be unfinished
The moon moves to the root of your chart, your sector of home and family, at 2:36 a.m. Central and stays there all day.
Today the crescent moon rests at the root of your chart, in the sector of home, family and the private ground you stand on. You may want to set things in order, and that is all right. But home is also the place where you are allowed to be unfinished. Let one corner stay a little untidy today, and notice that you are still safe and still loved.
Your ruler Mercury is retrograde in your sector of words and short journeys, turning direct on Friday morning, the 13th. If there is something you have wanted to say to someone close to you, you can begin by writing it down for yourself. Mars and Jupiter shine in your hidden sector of rest and dreams. On Mars's day, the bravest thing may be to rest before you are tired.
A small act for today
Write down one thing you would like to say to someone at home, and keep it until the words feel ready.

What does home need from me that has nothing to do with tidying?

kind words, plainly said

Today, let yourself say which side is yours.
Your ruler Venus is still retrograde in your own sign, rising brilliant in the east-southeast before dawn, and she turns direct on Friday evening, the 13th. Saturn and Neptune move backward through your partnership sector. Mars and Jupiter shine together in your sector of friends and hopes.

A small act for today
Practice one gentle no or one honest yes today, out loud or on paper.
Ask yourself
Where do I hide what I want in order to keep the peace?

Mars shines high before dawn beside Jupiter at the top of your chart, your sector of work and calling, so you may feel ready to aim higher. Let the aim be true to you.

What strength have I been carrying without giving it credit?

The crescent moon is in your own sign today, too thin and too close to the Sun to see, but you may feel her all the same. She brings a fresh start to how you feel about yourself and how you meet the world. Moods may move quickly. Let them. The archer is not always aiming. Sometimes the archer is simply standing in the morning air, breathing.

rest behind the curtain

Go to bed thirty minutes earlier tonight, or spend those thirty minutes lying quietly with the lights low.

What am I ready to set down before the moon reaches my sign?

Share one idea at work, at school or at home that you have been keeping to yourself.

What would I offer the world if I trusted it would be received kindly?
