Grow where you're planted.
Your daily horoscopes are here, astrology lovers! Today we have a Moon in Libra and a Sun in Sagittarius. Mercury aligns with the Sun, and now new it's a quiet time for new births to begin — this isn't your traditional new, fresh start like other times of the astrological cycle.
Mercury is at an early stage in retrograde and its position with the Earth is a small start. Think, sleepy new beginning like the moment that you first discovered you were passionate about something.
Tiny like the first line on a plain sheet of paper, or inconsequential like a penny that a toddler first puts into their piggy bank the moment they are introduced to the concept of saving money.
When you see someone who has this amazing talent, it's easy to presume that the person started at that place in life and their talent was something that was always there.
But that's not how things begin. Often great feats were once a humble beginning.
For example, a baby was one a single cell. A home was once a bunch of scrap wood and some cement. A famous actor was once a someone who stood on an elementary school stage forgetting his or her lines. Nothing big there, but there in front of an audience a star was born — they just didn't know it yet.
A similar thing happens with our passionate pursuits. So why get caught up in believing that all great things started off that way. Instead, start where you are and grow where you are planted.
What does this mean for your zodiac sign according to astrology?
When things seem to be meaningless, that's when they are ripe for great growth, but first, you must allow it time to mature.
Zodiac signs that benefit from today's Moon with a power day are Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius, and Aquarius — Libra, a double boost for you!
Activities to do today involve board games, having fun, planning a social gathering, and enjoying nature.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Tarot of the day: The Lovers
Power Color: Red
Aries, you often equate a big jump start with a just means to get to your goals. But that's part of the problem, little Ram. You see, foundations are what make things last longest. If you start where you are, you can take the pressure off of yourself to do more and then fizzle out sooner than later.
The Lovers Tarot card means that you have something that means a lot to you that you would like to work on but well, there's also this other thing that means a lot to you, too. They are competing for your attention. You'll eventually need to pick one.
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Tarot of the day: The Empress
Power Color: Green
Taurus, you are perfectly comfortable with slow starts. It's like your approach to everything in life. Slow and steady wins the race, right? You have to admit this is something you wish others appreciated more since it would make things streamline easier, right?
The Empress Tarot card means that you need to be looking for things in your life that add value. If something doesn't give you time back or some other resource that you need to make life better, perhaps you should look for a new angle to approach the project or find out if it's really worth the time.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Tarot of the day: The World
Power Color: Yellow
Gemini, small starts are wonderful. You love when life is like a mini appetizer bar where you get to pick and choose your passionate projects without a lot of pressure to stick to one or another.
The World Tarot card means that you get to have fun playing around with options. You could be starting something new now or perhaps it will be after the new year. The point is to have fun whatever you do.
CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Tarot of the day: The Hanged Man
Power Color: White
Cancer, a humble beginning resonates with you. You don't mind sensing things before going full force to get the job done. Not that you're afraid to dig in once you know where you're headed, but right now it might be too soon to tell.
The Hanged Man Tarot card means that maybe you're in a position where you have found your passion but you don't know if you're ready to pursue things yet. Maybe you're waiting for the right time or for resources to come in.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Tarot of the day: The Magician
Power Color: Gold
Leo, small starts, aren't always the easiest thing for you to manage. You prefer to have people know what you're up to; not so much because you need to be the center of attention but that you like the energy and synergy sharing of ideas can bring.
The Magician Tarot card means that your many talents and skills will not only bring you luck at this time, but you should experiment with them because they will help you to find the place where you're meant to be.
VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Tarot of the day: The Emperor
Power Color: Brown
Virgo, if there was an award for pacing, you would win it. You are the queen of pacing yourself. If you want to do something it must first be broken down into small parts and then a plan gets put into place, but first the dream.
The Emperor Tarot card means that there might have been a moment where you started to do something and someone either stopped you from pursuing it or may be they told you it coudn't be done. It's time to set that negative voice aside and replace it with your own.
LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Tarot of the day: Wheel of Fortune
Power Color: Pink
Libra, you often are caught up with helping others find their voice, defining their dreams, and seeing them come to life. Those same skills are the ones to use for yourself. Yes, for you. You have a gift that you can grow into something special. You don't have to take over the world or do something crazy with it. But if it's special to you, it's special enough to share with others who love you.
The Wheel of Fortune means that there are areas in your life that you are able to influence. You can bring your passion to life in these areas and it will bring you much joy.
SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
Tarot of the day: Judgement
Power Color: Black
Scorpio, you don't always like to be the flashy one showing off your ideas or plans, but you aren't shy. You prefer to things with a little bit of mystery. Right now, you might be thinking about the area of your career that you want to develop, or perhaps there's something you want to do that make a part of your home a special place to simply hang out.
The Judgement card is an invitation to match your intuition and your critical thinking skills to figure out what you need and how to fulfill your vision without too much fuss.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Tarot of the day: The Emperor
Power Color: Purple
Sagittarius, you are too strong willed to do anything halfway. In fact, rarely do you NOT finish something that you start. That's why small starts are so important to you. You'll need to know that what you're doing is done right or else you will keep trying until it is.
The Emperor Tarot card means you are going to take on a leadership role of some sort. Perhaps there is someone in your life that you admired for their leadership skills and you always wanted to be that same person for someone else in their life. You could help out at a children's organization or maybe with kids in your family. You've wanted this for some time. Now is your turn.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Tarot of the day: Temperance
Power Color: Gray
Capricorn, you are such a hard worker that you will leap to do the work that a dream requires even when it's not the right time to pursue things yet. Your cardinal nature can get the best of you but for now, it's time to set those inclinations aside.
The Temperance Tarot card means it's time for you to be patient with yourself and your circumstances. Perhaps create a routine that becomes a bit of a date with yourself where you get to spend time planning. Pick colors that put you in the mood to dream. Create a dream board with goals and take it one moment at a time.
AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Tarot of the day: The Moon
Power Color: Blue
Aquarius, you truly appreciate the value of a small start. In fact, some of your favorite bands, musicians, artists, and writers all began their journey with small beginnings. You have respect for the process of creativity and so there's room for you in this space.
The Moon Tarot card means that creative dreams have an opportunity to rise to your awareness. There's some cool things you've always wanted to do. Now is the prefect time for you to entertain those creative fantasies.
PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Tarot of the day: The Devil
Power Color: Light green
Pisces, starting where you are is something that you can do, it just depends on the company you're around at that time. If it's just your ideas and your efforts, you don't mind the early stages. In fact, you love them. It gives you a chance to dream and envision without any inhibitions.
The Devil Tarot card means that you might need to remove a few obstacles around you that prevent you from getting closer to your dreams. Perhaps these could be little to-do tasks that take up some of the time you could be using to relax, get creative, and just enjoy yourself so you have time to think and dream.
