Today's sky for Aries

Today brings no new planetary contacts, which leaves the Moon's mood in charge. Routine, small repairs and conversations that do not need a big moment all fit well.

Retrograde right now: Venus in Scorpio, your 8th house of intimacy and shared money, Saturn in Aries, your 1st house of self and style, Uranus in Gemini, your 3rd house of talk and errands and Neptune in Aries, your 1st house of self and style. Astrologers read those areas as better for review than for new starts.

About the Aries horoscope

Counting from Aries, Taurus becomes your 2nd house of money and possessions, Cancer your 4th house of home, Libra your 7th house of partners and Capricorn your 10th house of career. So when the Moon enters Libra, the Aries reading turns toward one-on-one ties, and a few days later in Capricorn it shifts to work and reputation.

Mars rules Aries, which makes aspects to Mars stand out in your horoscope. A Mars square tends to read as a short fuse, a Mars trine as a good push for physical work or a project that stalled. Mars turns retrograde about every two years for a little over two months, and astrologers usually read those stretches as a time for Aries to revisit plans instead of charging ahead.

The Sun moves through Aries from around March 20 to April 19, the season of your solar return. Planets crossing Libra, the sign opposite yours, put the spotlight on how you deal with other people.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What does Mars mean in an Aries horoscope?

Mars is the ruler of Aries, so its aspects and stations carry extra weight for you. Its theme is drive, nerve and conflict, and the house it stands in shows where that energy is likely to go.

Which houses matter most for Aries today?

The house the Moon is passing through sets the day's mood. Beyond that, any house holding a planet in an exact aspect gets attention. The reading above names both for today's sky.

Why does my Aries horoscope talk about Libra?

Libra is your 7th solar house, the area of partners and close collaborators. When the Moon or another planet passes through Libra, the Aries reading turns to relationships with one specific person.

Is the Aries horoscope today a love horoscope too?

Partly. Love shows up when the Moon visits Leo, your 5th house of romance, or Libra, your 7th, and when Venus forms an exact aspect. On other days the focus sits elsewhere.
