Your horoscope for Friday 29 August 2025

Aries ♈

The Pisces Moon softens your usual urge to lead with fire, urging you to tune into collective rhythms. Today, pause before charging ahead. Listen to the undercurrents, the feelings unsaid, the quiet dissent. Your role isn’t to set the agenda but to hold the group long enough for everyone’s voices to surface. You’re not losing your edge — you’re sharpening it with empathy, ensuring your courage serves the many rather than your ego.

Taurus ♉

Pisces energy harmonises with your earthy steadiness in your horoscope, inviting you to ground dreams in reality. Today, think of yourself as the one who builds bridges between vision and practicality. Others may float away in fantasies, but you know how to tether ideals to something solid — whether that’s securing resources, cooking food, or making sure the meeting has chairs. You’re not being pedestrian; you’re proving that resistance needs roots as much as it needs wings.

Gemini ♊

The Pisces Moon lends depth to your chatterbox ways, turning gossip into prophecy. Today, your words carry unusual weight, so use them to spread hope, not cynicism. Narratives are powerful weapons, and you’re the bard of the barricades — write the zine, script the chant, tell the story that reframes struggle as survival. You’re not merely filling silence — you’re shaping the memory of resistance.

Cancer ♋

With the Moon in Pisces in your horoscope, your emotional antennae are buzzing. You’ll pick up tensions others miss, and it’s tempting to carry them all. Don’t. Today, your task is to redistribute emotional labour, not absorb it. Invite others into the work of care: set up buddy systems, schedule breaks, suggest rituals. You’re not being oversensitive; you’re ensuring the group doesn’t collapse under the strain of unspoken exhaustion.

Leo ♌

Pisces energy pulls you out of the spotlight and asks you to shine in subtler ways. This isn’t about retreating, but about expanding your repertoire: leading through storytelling, humour, or encouragement rather than command. Today, a well-timed word of affirmation or a story that rekindles purpose will do more than a speech. You’re not dimming your glow — you’re learning that light bends differently through water than fire.

Virgo ♍

The Pisces Moon opposes your earthy exactness, which can feel frustrating. Everyone else seems to be swimming in dreams while you’re counting minutes. But today, your precision is needed to hold the collective afloat. Translate big visions into tasks. Balance whimsy with reality. You’re not the killjoy — you’re the life raft. Without you, utopias sink; with you, they sail.

What’s in store with your horoscope today?

Libra ♎

Pisces energy in your horoscope amplifies your longing for harmony, but beware of mistaking avoidance for peace. Today, lean into messy truths rather than smoothing them over. Use your diplomacy to host difficult conversations, not dodge them. Invite voices that don’t usually agree, and hold space until understanding emerges. You’re not making trouble — you’re creating real balance, not the polished illusion of it.

Scorpio ♏

The Pisces Moon trines your depth, giving you sharper instincts than usual. You see what’s hidden: the fear, the avoidance, the quiet resentment. Don’t weaponise it; use it. Today is for naming truths gently, drawing poison out without killing the patient. You’re not brooding — you’re offering transformation that comes from compassion, not coercion.

Sagittarius ♐

Pisces softens your restless fire, teaching you that not every leap has to span continents. Today, look at the small acts of imagination that shift reality: a new ritual, a bold story, a visioning workshop. These micro-adventures matter as much as the grand ones. You’re not losing scope; you’re discovering that scale begins in miniature.

Capricorn ♑

The Pisces Moon in your horoscope waters your discipline, reminding you that care belongs in the rota too. Today, look at the structures you’ve built: do they allow for rest, reflection, and humanity? If not, rework them. You’re not weakening the plan — you’re ensuring it can carry living, breathing humans rather than machines. True endurance is compassionate, not relentless.

Aquarius ♒

Pisces’s dreamy tide challenges your visionary schematics with emotion. You’d rather be innovating systems, but today, feeling is the system. Ask the group how they’re doing, not just what they’re doing. Test radical softness as an organising model: circles, rituals, care checks. You’re not derailing the project — you’re making sure it has a soul.

Pisces ♓

With the Moon in your horoscope, you’re the weaver of dreams and the tide that carries them forward. Today, your compassion is magnetic, but remember: compassion without boundaries drains. Offer your gift selectively: create art that inspires, rituals that restore, or visions that galvanise. You’re not dissolving into everyone else’s pain — you’re shaping it into collective resilience.
