Looking for Yesterday’s Horoscopes?

Aries

March 21 - April 19

You cannot avoid or evade image challenges on a Saturn cycle – but at its most extreme, this transit encourages you to wait, then manage, then wait again and manage again. If you don’t want to or can’t, then at least you can stay in the ‘Me’ game with your reputation or appearance – but really examine the new realities.

Taurus

April 20 - May 20

People and organisations in fields like religion, therapy, hypnosis, counselling, psychiatry and spirituality find all kinds of ways of defending and protecting themselves on this cycle. You have to deal with the way things really are – and the way they are, too. Systems or structures feel heavier now on this Saturn cycle. It’s a waiting game.

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

Just knowing that there is ordinary cowardice at the core of a friendship or group that you find so heavy might help. Saturnine types can take up a lot of oxygen in the room or online. But actually, this cycle is no more important than any other. Balance it.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

What works really well on a Saturn in Aries cycle like this is fronting up to who/what is so heavy in terms of career, unpaid work or academia. Then realise it’s a test of patience. Then you deal. Eventually, the reward is an escape from the real world – a holiday from the everyday.

Leo

July 23 - August 22

Pluto in Aquarius and empowerment? It really depends on what you have done with your personal partnerships these last few years – 2023, 2024 and so far in 2025. This sign rules past, present and potential courtship or commitment in your chart. Work partners too. This set of scales of yours requires a bit more willpower today.

Virgo

August 23 - September 22

If you really want this to work long-term financially with him, her or them – you must come up with a reshaped arrangement that everyone can stick to. You are living with two new cycles with money or real estate now.

Libra

September 23 - October 22

The Pluto weather and a forthcoming choice in January/February 2026 is about a younger generation. You’ll need to strike a new deal about the pregnancy, the child, the young adult or the youth question – be this dating a single parent or having a grown-up daughter.

Scorpio

October 23 - November 21

The feelings will be deep about or with relatives still. It is worth taking time to get to a point of agreement later, though, as this Pluto cycle hits a crossroads next January/February. You’ve been dealt quite intense cards since 2023, and you will have played your hand a certain way. Shifting the game is a choice.

Sagittarius

November 22 - December 21

At the moment, you are not really about the real world in terms of a younger generation, courtship or the bedroom. Neptune in Aries in your chart is striped sea-blue and indigo on the NASA images. Nothing real about that either. You are the reality surfer. You can still be crystal-clear about real unrealities, though. Worth a try.

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Uranus in Gemini suggests radical changes with the people, organisations or situations which are most affecting your career, unpaid work or studies – and this leads to a certain revolutionary impact. You’ve seen it with your staff, boss, colleague, lecturer, classmate, client and so on in recent weeks. You have seen it with the company, the department or the university. Liberating!

Aquarius

January 20 - February 18

You have to ask yourself if the internet strategy you have been using is still right. If not, you can rebuild, restructure and rethink. This is all pretty new with restrictions affecting your digital life or media use.

Pisces

February 19 - March 20

Saturn in Aries is pretty new. There are a ton of financial or property walls, obstacles, barricades and the rest that have gone up. Look at that again today? Saturn is going back and forth in this chart zone. Pacing yourself is half the battle. Allow 2025/2026 and play a long game.
