Horoscopes

Daily horoscope for every zodiac sign — today and this week.

Today's horoscope and this week's for all twelve signs, written from real planetary positions and updated every morning. A sun-sign reading is the starting point; each page then shows how to read the same sky against your own birth chart. Pick your sign to begin.

What is on every sign page

Each sign page is that day’s sky placed in the sign’s own houses: whole-sign houses counted from your Sun sign as the first, so the same Moon falls in a different part of life for each of the twelve signs. The reading opens with the Moon’s sign and the house it occupies for you, then lists up to five of the day’s Moon contacts with their times in US Eastern, the hour the Moon changes sign when it does, and any void-of-course stretch of half an hour or more. A section on where the Moon goes next follows it into its coming sign. Your ruling planet gets its own section: where it is, which house that is for you, whether it is retrograde, and the next date it makes a move.

The week runs from today to six days ahead and keeps up to five dated events (planets changing sign, stations, the Moon’s four main phases, exact aspects between the planets), each read through your houses. The slow planets, Jupiter to Pluto, get a line each on the house they hold for you and when they leave it. The page closes with a note for readers who have the sign rising, the sign’s next event in 2027 and a few short questions. Positions come from the JPL DE442 ephemeris on the tropical zodiac; the wording is drawn from a hand-written phrase library chosen by that day’s computed sky, and nothing is generated at build time by a language model. Pages are rebuilt every night just after midnight Eastern, so the same URL always shows today.

Sun sign or rising sign?

Both readings work by putting your sign in the first house and counting round. Read by Sun sign and the count starts from the sign the Sun was in when you were born. If you know your rising sign, read that page as well: the same count from the Ascendant is closer to how houses actually fall in a birth chart, which is why the Daily Sky table gives a separate “By Rising” column. When the two disagree, the rising-sign version is usually the better guide to timing. Not sure of yours? The rising sign calculator needs only a birth time and place.

What a sun-sign horoscope can and can’t tell you

It can tell you the sky everyone shares — which sign the Moon is in, which contacts go exact and when, whether the Moon is void of course, what is retrograde — and roughly which department of life that lands in for your sign. It cannot see your Moon, your Ascendant, your houses, or the exact degrees of your natal planets, so it cannot say whether a transit is touching your chart to the degree or missing it by twenty. For that, calculate your free birth chart and run transits today against it. Treat the horoscope as the weather report; the chart is the map of where you live.

Dates are approximate: the Sun’s sign change shifts by a day with the year and your time zone. Where a sign has a modern and a traditional ruler, both are shown.
