Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn · Mercury still in Pisces · Mars newly in Aries

The Last Quarter Moon arrives in Capricorn today, inviting a pause before the next cycle begins. Mars is freshly home in Aries, bringing real forward momentum, but the Moon asks us to consolidate before we charge ahead. A powerful day for honest assessment and quiet resolve. Read your full daily horoscope.

♈ Aries

Mar 21 – Apr 19

Earned momentum

The Last Quarter Moon asks you to pause and take stock even as Mars fires up your ambitions from within your own sign. This is not a contradiction — it is wisdom. The most effective action comes after honest review. What from the last lunar cycle are you ready to leave behind before the New Moon arrives next week? Clear that space today and your next move will be cleaner.

♉ Taurus

Apr 20 – May 20

Solid ground

Venus in your sign continues to be a quiet source of grace this week. The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn forms a supportive earth trine to your nature, making today one of the better days for financial decisions, practical planning, or tending to something that needs steady attention. You do not need to match the urgency around you. Your pace is an asset, not a liability.

♊ Gemini

May 21 – Jun 20

Wrap it up

The Last Quarter Moon is a natural completion point, and with Mercury still moving through reflective Pisces, your thoughts are more feeling-oriented than usual. Use this combination to close out something that has been lingering — a conversation left unfinished, a decision deferred too long, a creative project sitting at 90 percent. Mercury enters Aries on the 14th and your mind will want to run then. Clear the desk first.

♋ Cancer

Jun 21 – Jul 22

Structure and soul

Jupiter in your sign has been expanding what you believe is possible from the inside out. The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn sits opposite you, drawing attention to career and public life. Today the question is whether your outer ambitions still reflect your inner growth. If you have been changing on the inside, your external goals may need to be updated to match. This is a good day to notice that gap.

♌ Leo

Jul 23 – Aug 22

Behind the scenes

The Last Quarter Moon activates a reflective corner of your chart, reinforcing what the broader sky has been asking of you — to work quietly and let results speak. Pluto in Aquarius continues its long opposition to your sign, asking fundamental questions about how you share power with others. Today is a good day to act generously without any audience. That kind of leadership leaves a deeper mark than the visible kind.

♍ Virgo

Aug 23 – Sep 22

Right-size the list

The Last Quarter Moon in fellow earth sign Capricorn brings a practical current that suits you well. Use it to triage. Not everything on your list deserves equal urgency — some of it is anxiety dressed as productivity. Mercury leaving Pisces on the 14th will sharpen your thinking considerably. Today is about deciding what actually matters before that clarity arrives, so you are ready to act on the right things.

♎ Libra

Sep 23 – Oct 22

Release the weight

The Last Quarter Moon falls near your opposite sign, Aries, where Saturn and Mars are both active. You may be feeling pressure from a relationship or partnership that has been asking more of you than feels balanced. Today the lunar energy supports releasing what is not working rather than continuing to manage it. You cannot negotiate your way to balance if the other party is not interested in it. Recognize that today.

♏ Scorpio

Oct 23 – Nov 21

Deep knowing

The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn forms a supportive sextile to your sign, giving your natural depth a practical edge today. You can see clearly what needs to end, what needs to transform, and what is worth preserving. Trust that clarity. Mars newly in Aries adds a sharpness to the collective energy that your instincts can read well. Use what you know to make at least one decision you have been postponing.

♐ Sagittarius

Nov 22 – Dec 21

Honest accounting

The Last Quarter Moon squares your sign, creating a mild tension between your natural optimism and the need for honest assessment. This is not a bad thing. Your vision is strong but the details sometimes get away from you. Today is a good day to let someone you trust tell you what they actually think about a plan you are attached to. Genuine feedback from a grounded source is worth more than agreement.

♑ Capricorn

Dec 22 – Jan 19

Your lunar moment

The Last Quarter Moon is in your sign today, giving you an instinctive authority that others will sense even if you say nothing. You are reading the situation accurately. Use this clarity to complete something rather than start something — the Last Quarter is a finishing energy, and Capricorn finishes better than any other sign when it decides to. One thing brought to completion today is worth three things started.

♒ Aquarius

Jan 20 – Feb 18

Practical idealism

Pluto has been moving through your sign for years, slowly transforming your sense of what is possible and what needs to change. The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn grounds that transformative energy in practical reality today. What is one concrete action you can take that actually reflects the values you hold? The distance between what we believe and how we spend our time is where integrity either lives or doesn't.

♓ Pisces

Feb 19 – Mar 20

Speaking the truth

Mercury is still in your sign, and Mars has just left for Aries after spending weeks here. You may feel the collective energy pulling away from your natural depth toward something faster and more assertive. Do not follow that pull today. The Last Quarter Moon supports reflection, and your instincts are still your most reliable guide. Mercury enters Aries on the 14th and the pace will change. For now, listen to what the quiet is telling you.
