Today's Overview

Overall Rating:

7.2 /10

Today, as a Moon-ruled child of the tides, you find yourself at a pivotal celestial crossroads. The New Moon in Aquarius marks a profound moment of internal 'rebooting.' While your traditional sanctuary is the home, today's energy pulls you toward the mysteries of your subconscious and shared resources. With the Sun, Moon, and Mars aligning, you possess a quiet but formidable drive to settle debts—both financial and emotional. However, the square from Uranus warns of sudden disruptions to your routine. Embrace the stillness of this 0% illumination phase; it is not a void, but a fertile ground for planting intentions. Your focus is razor-sharp, allowing you to see through illusions that previously clouded your judgment. Trust the 'gut feeling' that Cancers are famous for, but ground it in the innovative spirit of the Aquarius moon.
