Your horoscope for Saturday 9 August 2025

Aries ♈

The Libra Moon nudges you towards collaboration, which feels suspiciously like slowing down. Today, let it. Invite multiple voices into the plan — not just the ones who agree with you. You’re not losing momentum — you’re investing in shared ownership. The revolution runs smoother when the steering wheel has more than one hand.

Taurus ♉

Venus, your ruler, trines the Moon in your horoscope, gifting you the ability to make any space feel safe enough for honesty. Today, bring beauty to the discussion table — and not just flowers. Frame feedback as care. Offer biscuits alongside boundary-setting. You’re not softening the critique — you’re making sure it gets heard.

Gemini ♊

Mercury sextiles Venus and your gift for wordplay could resolve (or inflame) today’s tensions. Choose the former. Rephrase the stuck point. Translate passion into plans. You’re not dodging conflict — you’re finding the language that moves it forward. Keep your metaphors accessible, though; not everyone speaks “Gemini”.

Cancer ♋

The Libra Moon squares Pluto in your horoscope and emotions are circling like a kettle just before boil. Today, take the temperature before pouring. Suggest a pause. Acknowledge the discomfort. You’re not avoiding resolution — you’re preventing a scalding. Emotional infrastructure is just as vital as logistics.

Leo ♌

The Sun’s quincunx to Neptune blurs your sense of where you end and the group begins. Today, resist becoming the default spokesperson. Share the stage. Applaud loudly when someone else shines. You’re not diminishing yourself — you’re proving that the collective spotlight is warmer.

Virgo ♍

The Moon’s airiness contrasts with your earthy precision. Today, your job is to ground the dreamers without clipping their wings. Suggest a test run. Offer practical timelines. You’re not being a killjoy — you’re giving vision a working pair of boots.

Libra ♎

The Moon in your horoscope makes you the cosmic mediator — and the risk is you’ll prioritise agreement over truth. Today, practise “beautiful dissent”. Frame disagreements as depth, not division. You’re not rocking the boat — you’re steering it away from stagnant waters.

Scorpio ♏

Pluto’s aspect to the Moon means shadows will surface, whether you invite them or not. Today, offer a safe container for what emerges. Don’t weaponise vulnerability. You’re not being intense — you’re ensuring that what’s hidden gets a chance to be healed, not hoarded.

Sagittarius ♐

Jupiter supports Mercury today, fuelling your ability to make links between big visions and tiny acts. Show how today’s meeting connects to long-term liberation. Draw the map and highlight the next small step. You’re not simplifying — you’re making the path walkable.

Capricorn ♑

Saturn trines the Moon in your horoscope, and your authority feels unusually welcome. Use it to model humility. Admit what you don’t know. Ask for input. You’re not giving away control — you’re dismantling the idea that leadership means having all the answers.

Aquarius ♒

Uranus challenges the Moon, making you itch to disrupt for disruption’s sake. Instead, channel it. Propose a new decision-making process. Trial a rotating chair. You’re not being contrary — you’re future-proofing the collective against stagnation.

Pisces ♓

Neptune softens the Moon’s edges in your horoscope, making you extra receptive to the mood. Don’t get swept away — direct the tide. Suggest a creative break, a group doodle, a few minutes of breathing. You’re not distracting from the work — you’re making the work sustainable.
