Your horoscope for Friday 15 August 2025

Aries ♈

With the Moon in your sign, you’re all spark and forward motion. Today, that means you’ll want to act before the committee has even finished their tea. Channel it: call the meeting, start the petition, knock on the doors. You’re not being impatient — you’re jump-starting the engine others will keep running. Just remember to hand over the wheel now and then; movements need stamina, not just ignition.

Taurus ♉

Venus squares Pluto, shaking you out of the comfort of the familiar. You may be tempted to keep the peace, but today calls for a little constructive disruption. Shift the meeting’s agenda. Ask why the “tried and tested” method is still leaving people out. You’re not being awkward — you’re reminding everyone that comfort without fairness is just stagnation in a nice chair.

Gemini ♊

Mercury aligns with the Aries Moon in your horoscope, making you a verbal firecracker. Use it to rally allies, not just charm the crowd. Today’s the day for drafting that bold statement or talking to the one person who can swing the vote. You’re not being provocative for its own sake — you’re building a chain reaction with words.

Cancer ♋

The Moon squares Pluto, turning up the emotional volume. You might feel like retreating, but today, your ability to feel the stakes makes you a vital voice. Tell the group what’s at risk if they play safe. You’re not being overdramatic — you’re translating consequences into something people can’t ignore.

Leo ♌

The Sun trines Mars in your horoscope, boosting your natural charisma with a dash of raw push. Today, your role is part cheerleader, part fire marshal — keep the crowd energised but stop them from burning the place down (literally). You’re not hogging the spotlight — you’re using it as a signal flare.

Virgo ♍

Venus in your sign sextiles Mars, giving you the stamina to take on unglamorous but crucial organising work. Today, map out the logistics that keep the momentum from fizzling: who brings what, where the banners go, how the rota runs. You’re not micromanaging — you’re building the scaffolding for action.

What’s in store with your horoscope today?

Libra ♎

The Aries Moon opposes your horoscope, pulling you between keeping balance and fuelling the fight. Today, your skill is framing demands so even the most hesitant can get behind them. You’re not diluting the cause — you’re widening the base without shrinking the vision.

Scorpio ♏

Mars in your horoscope fuels your intensity, and the Aries Moon doubles down. You’re ready to cut through waffle with surgical precision. Today, drop the euphemisms. Name the injustice. Offer the solution. You’re not being ruthless — you’re sparing everyone the slow death of indecision.

Sagittarius ♐

The Aries Moon fans your restlessness into a desire for bold moves. Organise a direct action, test a new tactic, reach out beyond your usual circles. You’re not scattering focus — you’re reminding the collective that the map is bigger than their current street.

Capricorn ♑

Mars squares your horoscope, making you itch for tangible progress. Today, apply your pragmatic streak to pushing through the sticking points. Get the budget approved, secure the venue, nail down the deadline. You’re not being bossy — you’re removing the excuses.

Aquarius ♒

The Aries Moon sextiles your sign, sparking collaboration with an edge. Today, trial a fresh idea that shifts power horizontally — a rotating chair, a shared resource list, a community skill bank. You’re not tinkering — you’re building the blueprint for a post-hierarchy world.

Pisces ♓

The Moon in your horoscope stirs your empathy into action. Today, focus your care on bolstering those taking the front line — cook, cover shifts, send notes of support. You’re not staying in the background — you’re the current that carries the wave.
