Daily Horoscope: August 23: It’s Time to Step Up

See what your daily horoscope has in store for your zodiac sign, according to astrologer Valerie Mesa

Today’s astro-weather leaves no room for shortcuts!

The moon will journey through the structured and disciplined sign of Capricorn today, and eventually clash with Saturn retrograde in Aries. 

This could create friction between what needs to be taken care of and what you’d much rather do, on your own terms.

Look at it this way: Capricorn energy thrives when there’s a practical plan in place, even if that means giving yourself a deadline so you can see your progress.

Meanwhile, Saturn retrograde in Aries is having us reconsider the way we approach themes of responsibility, independence and accountability.

Something may require more patience and restraint than you’re comfortable with.

The moon in Capricorn can be quite sobering in the sense that it brings focus to themes of adulthood, such as responsibility and the inevitable consequences surrounding those commitments.

That said, the moon square Saturn can feel rigid, frustrating and slightly self-conscious, as you could feel pressured to prove yourself while coming to terms with the fact that something isn’t progressing. 

Without being too hard on yourself, consider where you’re genuinely called to step up. You got this.

In the meantime, here’s your daily horoscope for today, according to your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 20-April 19)

Take the feedback and constructive criticism seriously, Aries. This doesn’t have to make you defensive. In fact, if an authority figure suddenly questions your approach at work or your relationship with a client, there is greater perspective that can come out of this. Use the information wisely.

Taurus (April 19-May 20)

Reconsider the plan before you invest more money, time or energy into it, Taurus. A vacation, work trip or legal matter could suddenly come with an expense, delay or logistical detail you didn’t anticipate. Annoying? Perhaps, but better you know now than later.

Gemini (May 20-June 20)

If you owe someone something, or are committed to an obligation, this takes precedence today, Gemini. Get clear on your role in the matter — whether that’s a shared expense or financial responsibility — as it could expose some uncomfortable assumptions about who was supposed to cover what.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)

If there’s a lack of reciprocity in a connection, it’s time to address it, Cancer. Otherwise, this is where resentment starts doing the talking. A significant other or close friend could expect more flexibility from you, all while your own professional demands are already maxing you out. You could be dependable, and still have boundaries in place. 

Leo (July 22-Aug. 22)

You’re a natural-born leader, but you need to be realistic about how much you can do in a day, Leo. A work deadline, appointment or tedious responsibility could interfere with plans you were actually looking forward to. Your calendar should work in your favor, so double-check your plans and rework them accordingly.

Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22)

Is the fun really worth the hefty price tag, Virgo? A hobby or weekend plan could tempt you just as another financial obligation resurfaces. You don’t have to sell out on yourself and your passion projects; just be clear on the consequences of these potential investments.

Libra (Sept. 22-Oct. 22)

Put your foot down if needed, Libra. You may have to set a boundary in your personal life, or else someone close to you could start to make things slightly uncomfortable. A significant other or relative could have strong opinions about your home life or living situation. Be crystal clear instead of secretly furious.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22)

No one’s a mind reader, Scorpio. It’s probably best to speak up about what you need, rather than assuming everyone knows where you’re coming from. A coworker could miss a detail or leave you with more of a workload than expected. Have a straightforward conversation instead of raging via subtext over e-mail.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21)

Be mindful of your budget before you splurge on a fancy dinner, Sagittarius. Whether it’s a date or a spontaneous purchase, this could cost a lot more than you intended to spend. You deserve to have fun, but being financially in denial is never a good idea.

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19)

Give yourself permission to work around what no longer works for you, Capricorn. A family obligation or expectation at home could clash with what you personally need right now. Take the lead, and advocate for yourself.

Aquarius (Jan. 19-Feb. 18)

Keep your thoughts to yourself, even if it’s just for now, Aquarius.  A conversation or rumor could stir up anxiety before you have the full story. Your notifications could be buzzing and your smartphone could be ringing, but you don’t need to respond until you’re ready.

Pisces (Feb. 18-March 20)

What exactly are you willing to sacrifice for the sake of a friendship or sense of belonging, Pisces? A group activity or birthday dinner could leave you spending more than you’re comfortable with, because nobody else will. Your generosity is lovely, but at what cost?
