Today's horoscope is marked by a key change: Mercury entered Taurus this Sunday, bringing a more measured energy that encourages thinking before acting. It’s not all about moving forward; it’s also about holding steady.

The recent full moon in Scorpio exposed intense emotions, forcing many to confront inner truths. It's a time to reassess relationships, set boundaries, and release burdens.

The discomfort you may feel is not coincidental; it is part of a necessary purification process. Each sign will experience this transition differently, but the message is the same: listen to what hurts in order to transform it into clarity and make firmer decisions.

Aries

There is an energy in you today that wants to move, resolve, create — and that's yours, no one can take it away. But the day asks you to pause for a second before you step out to face the world, and feel what you carry inside. Someone from your family occupies your thoughts more than usual, and it's okay to let that be. Not everything is resolved through action; sometimes the most healing thing is to acknowledge that you miss someone, that you care, that they matter to you. Financially, a small task you’ve had pending may show signs of progress: don’t let it slip away. Your body is speaking today too — if you feel tension in your shoulders, it’s the weight of what you carry without telling anyone. Release it a little. What you build with your own hands has more value than you think, even if you can’t see it all right now. Trust the process.

Lucky number: 7 · Compatibility: Leo · Advice: Before taking the next step, be grateful for the path you've already traveled.

Taurus

This Monday finds you in a special place: between what you have already achieved and what you still dream of. The waning moon invites you to let go of some financial worry you have been carrying too seriously — this does not mean ignoring it, but rather not allowing it to steal your sleep. Today, money is not the main focus; people are. There is someone in your close circle, perhaps from a distance, who needs to know that you are there. A call, a message, a small gesture can mean more than a thousand words. In love, if you have a partner, share something you haven't said; if you are single, allow yourself to miss without guilt. The spring that blossoms outside also blooms within you, even if you don’t always notice it. You are stronger than you seem when you are quiet.

Lucky number: 23 · Compatibility: Cancer · Advice: What you nurture with patience always ends up flourishing.

Gemini

Your mind is racing today, Gemini, as always —but there’s a thread among all those thoughts pulling you toward something calmer, more intimate. It’s nostalgia dressed in Monday's clothing, that taste of memories that appears unexpectedly and leaves you feeling sentimental by mid-morning. Don’t shy away from it. Today you have the ability to transform that longing into something creative, into an honest conversation, into a plan that connects who you were with who you want to be. Financially, avoid impulsive decisions; there’s information you don’t yet have that will change the landscape. In love, your words hold great power today: use them to build, not to avoid. Your emotional health will thank you for pausing the noise and listening to what your own heart has been trying to tell you.

Lucky number: 41 · Compatibility: Libra · Advice: Speak less of what you plan and more of what you feel.

Cancer

Today the day was made thinking of you, Cancer. The Moon is yours, and although it's waning, it does so with a particular generosity: it reminds you of everything you have given, all that you have cared for, all the times you put others first. Today is a good day to receive —a hug, a recognition, even if it’s from yourself in front of the mirror. If there are family members who are far away, you feel them especially close today, as if the soul doesn't understand distance. Don't suppress that emotion: let it flow, it cleanses. Financially, a small income or good news in that area can brighten your afternoon. In love, you are in your best version: authentic, sensitive, present. Whoever has you by their side today has a treasure. Don't forget to acknowledge that yourself too.

Lucky number: 8 · Compatibility: Taurus · Advice: Taking care of others is beautiful, but today take care of yourself too.

Leo

There are days when the sun shines outward and days when it shines inward. Today is one of the latter, Leo. You don’t need the spotlight or applause; what you need is to sit down with what truly matters: the people you love, the connections that support you even from afar. The waning moon asks you to let go of some pride that no longer serves you —that little wall you sometimes build when all you really want is to get closer. In financial matters, the perseverance of these past weeks is beginning to show small fruits: don’t underestimate them. Your health benefits today from something as simple as getting good sleep and genuinely laughing. If you have the opportunity to help someone with what you already know how to do, do it: that generosity will come back multiplied.

Lucky number: 19 · Compatibility: Aries · Advice: Your light does not diminish when you share it; on the contrary, it grows.

Virgo

Virgo, you've been analyzing something for days that isn't quite resolving, and today the energy suggests that it may not be a matter of logic but of the heart. There’s a decision—about money, about someone, about a path—that isn't progressing because it lacks an ingredient that no spreadsheet can provide: inner peace. Today, take a moment to listen to that quiet place beneath all your worries. The waning moon helps you let go of what you no longer need to carry. In the family realm, there's a conversation that could heal something old if you dare to have it calmly. Your health improves when you ease the demands you place on yourself: you don’t have to have everything figured out today. What you do with discipline and open hands will bear fruit—it comes, even if it comes slowly.

Lucky number: 34 · Compatibility: Capricorn · Advice: Not everything needs your control; some things just need your trust.

Libra

Monday finds you seeking balance, as always, but today that balance carries a different flavor: it is more emotional than rational. Something inside you wants relationships to be harmonious, without tension, allowing everything to flow — and that's beautiful, but remember that you cannot be the bridge between everyone all the time. Today, give yourself permission to have your own needs without feeling selfish. In matters of love, if there is something you have held back to avoid conflict, the moon provides the perfect atmosphere to express it gently and clearly. Economically, a small task related to a payment or an agreement may take better shape this week: start today. The spring blooming outside reminds you that new beginnings are also for you, not just to support those of others.

Lucky number: 56 · Compatibility: Gemini · Advice: The best balance starts with being honest with yourself.

Scorpio

You sense what others do not see, Scorpio, and today your antenna is especially active. There is something in the atmosphere—in a conversation, in a silence, in a gaze—that tells you more than words can express. Trust in that. The waning moon helps you let go of resentments that have weighed too heavily: it's not about giving up, it's about freeing yourself to move forward with greater strength. Financially, this is not the time to take risks; it is the time to consolidate what you already have, to protect what you have earned through hard work. In love, the intensity that characterizes you can be a gift today if you use it to truly connect, without masks. Someone far away is thinking of you today—perhaps you feel it too. Send them good energy: travel.

Lucky number: 13 · Compatibility: Pisces · Advice: Letting go is not losing; sometimes it’s the only way to make room for the new.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius, your free spirit sometimes clashes with Mondays—but today Monday has a surprise in store for you: an unexpected conversation, an idea that comes out of nowhere, a sign that the horizon you seek is closer than you thought. The energy of the day encourages you not to rush forward out of inertia, but also to look at what you have here, now, around you. There are people in your life—family, friends, that special someone—who deserve a little piece of your presence. In terms of finances, your intuition about a recently appeared opportunity is good: research more before deciding, but don’t let it pass you by. Your health benefits from movement and being outdoors. If you can take a walk today, do it: it will clear your mind and soul.

Lucky number: 29 · Compatibility: Aries · Advice: The best destinations also include the journey back to those you love.

Capricorn

You have been grappling with life for so long, Capricorn, that sometimes you forget to stop and see how far you've come. Today, the waning moon brings you face to face with what you have built through hard work and perseverance, reminding you that it’s okay to feel proud. This isn’t vanity; it’s about recognizing yourself. In your family life, there’s something you may have postponed—a call, a gesture, a reunion—that has the perfect atmosphere to take place today. Don’t put it off any longer. In love, the stability you offer is a gift; make sure that the person by your side knows it and that you also receive what you deserve. Financially, an effort you made weeks ago is starting to show concrete results. Moving forward always made sense: today you confirm it.

Lucky number: 47 · Compatibility: Virgo · Advice: Working hard is good; celebrating your achievements is also part of the journey.

Aquarium

Acuario, hoy tu mente quiere volar hacia ideas grandes, hacia el futuro, hacia lo que podría ser —y eso está bien, es tu naturaleza. Pero la energía del día te jala suavemente hacia lo cercano, lo íntimo, lo humano. There is someone in your life who needs to feel that you truly care, not abstractly but in a tangible way: with time, with attention, with your presence. Dáselo hoy si puedes. En lo económico, una conversación o un contacto puede abrir una puerta inesperada: mantente atento y disponible. Tu salud emocional mejora cuando permites que la nostalgia pase sin convertirla en angustia —sentir es de valientes. La fe que guardas, de la forma que sea, es un ancla poderosa hoy: apóyate en ella. Lo que se planta con las manos limpias y el corazón abierto siempre tiene chance de crecer.

Lucky number: 62 · Compatibility: Libra · Advice: The future you envision begins with the people you have today.

Pisces

Pisces, today the inner sea that the day speaks of is almost literally yours. You feel everything —the distance, the yearning, the love that doesn’t fit anywhere specific— and that can be exhausting if you don’t channel it. Today the waning moon asks you to take that sensitivity and turn it into something beautiful: an honest conversation, a prayer, a gesture of gratitude towards someone who cares for you. Financially, trust your instinct about a situation that is not entirely clear: your perception is more accurate than you think. In love, you are at one of your most genuine moments; anyone close to you today has the privilege of seeing your true soul. Take care of your rest tonight: Pisces dreams during the waning moon sometimes bring messages worth remembering in the morning.

Lucky number: 3 · Compatibility: Scorpio · Advice: Your sensitivity is not a weakness; it is the language in which the universe speaks to you.
