Horoscope
We might think the perfect partner would be someone who’s polished, elegant, graceful and never makes a wrong move. But no one like that really exists. What actually builds closeness and usefulness in relationships is shared humanity. The lunar water sign trine to Jupiter says that emotional vulnerability is lucky. Make mistakes, forgive, learn and bond through imperfection.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re not afraid to notice when something’s off. The unfair can be made right, mistakes and breaks can be fixed. Today you’ll have the opening to either solve or shed light on the issue so others can recognize and help.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The work is endless, yet so is your strength. You think you’re running out, and then another reserve appears. How quickly you will rebound! It’s a reminder that resilience is your most renewable resource.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Yes, the quality of your work is important. But how people perceive it matters just as much, maybe more. Think about your audience and the experience they have of your work. Think about what it solves for them.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Even on days you feel invisible, the world reflects back your brightness. Your presence makes strangers smile. Someone’s warm words will remind you that you’re not only seen; you’re deeply felt.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s no such thing as wasted time when you’re awake inside of it. Even delays, detours or aches hold meaning. A moment you thought was small will reveal itself as essential, adding richness to your story.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Gratitude rises like a second sun, not replacing sadness but shining beside it. You can cry and still be thankful. You can hurt and still be hopeful. The balance is beautiful, and today you’ll recognize how much grace is in you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Today brings spotlight energy. And though you don’t even know if you’re ready to rise to the “big moment” by being willing and giving yourself over to it, something wonderful comes through. You were meant to be in this warm glow.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You long for rest and beauty, and they are closer than you think. A glimpse in the mirror, a compliment, a flash of light across the yard — these will remind you you’re already embodying both.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Love often feels subtle, but it is still everywhere for you when you think about it. The affection of an animal, the loyalty of a client, the gentleness of a loved one… all clear signs of how cherished you are.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A duty that has befallen to you can feel mighty heavy indeed, but it’s also your crown. You hold your head high, and people see the power without knowing how it feels for you. At least today, there are royal perks to enjoy, too.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s not your responsibility to fill in every gap today. When the money or energy is low, when there’s silence or space that begs filling, when there’s a lack of knowledge or skill, wait to see what grows from the nothingness.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A forward-thinking attitude will help you out later. How can you use this time when things are going right to set yourself up for some security later? Future-you might like to take a risk that is only made possible by the extra padding you thought to work on now.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 25). Welcome to your Year of Splendor. Beauty surrounds you; it’s in your face, your body, your environment, your circle. It’s in your heart. And as you see, celebrate, create, buy and invest in beauty, you only get more. More highlights: A romance that makes you radiant, the perfect friend-group chemistry, a trip you’ll remember forever and a cash-in from past work. Leo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 11, 7, 15 and 24.
