The Moon is not visible at all today; its illumination is zero percent. It is still in Scorpio, but at the very end of the sign, and will soon move into Sagittarius. Tuesday is the day of Mars, and Mars, by the old way of reckoning, rules Scorpio, so the day is strong, stubborn and has no patience for idle talk. The signs are arranged by element, because fire, earth, air and water greet the dark Moon very differently.

The Sky Today

When the Moon is in the last degrees of a sign, astrologers advise finishing what you have started rather than beginning something new. In Scorpio it is in darkness and under the power of Mars, and this is traditionally a time for decisions that are made quietly and kept secret. Venus and Mercury are still retrograde and will move forward around the middle of the month, so contracts and expensive purchases are better off waiting a few days.

Fire Signs

The fire signs have strength from Mars today, but the dark Moon gives it to them in bursts: one moment you are energetic, the next you feel weighed down. Aries and Leo will do well if they take on one task and finish it, while Sagittarius will feel the day most heavily, because the Moon is about to enter its sign.

♈ Aries

Mars, your ruler, holds the day today and gives you energy that has trouble staying in one place. The Moon is in your eighth house, which governs shared money, debts and loans, so it is a good time to see who owes whom how much at home. Sit down for 20 minutes with the banking app and write on a sheet of paper every payment until the end of the month, from electricity to the loan installment. If someone asks to borrow money from you, answer on Friday, not today.

♌ Leo

Your home comes first today, because the Moon passes through your fourth house, and Mars makes you want to fix something with your own hands. Replace the burnt-out bulb, tighten the dripping tap, or throw out the boxes that have been sitting in the hallway since summer. Tension with your parents is possible over an old topic. Hear them out to the end before you answer.

♐ Sagittarius

The Moon is on the threshold of your sign, and today is the last day it is in your twelfth house, the house of rest and hidden things. Tiredness is normal; the body is getting ready for a new month. Cancel one unnecessary meeting and instead go out for half an hour in the park, without music in your ears. Tomorrow you will have much more energy, so leave the big conversations for then.

Earth Signs

The earth signs bear the Scorpio Moon more calmly than the others, because it seeks depth while they seek security, and the two get along well. Virgo and Capricorn are in a good angle to the Moon and arrange things easily today, while Taurus is opposite it and will feel everything through the people around.

♉ Taurus

Your partner is quieter and more sensitive than usual today, and the Moon in your seventh house makes you hear every word of theirs twice. Silence is not sulking; the day is simply like that. If something weighs on you in the relationship, choose one topic and discuss it for five minutes, without dragging up old stories. In the evening cook a dish the other person loves, without waiting for an occasion.

♍ Virgo

Your phone will ring more than usual today, because the Moon is in your third house of conversations, neighbors and siblings. People will confide in you things they do not tell everyone, and you will listen well. Call a brother or sister you have not spoken to in a long time. If you are traveling around the city or to another place, check the address and time twice, because Mercury is still muddling small things.

♑ Capricorn

Your friends are seeking more attention than usual today, because the Moon is in your eleventh house of friendships and shared plans. An old acquaintance may call with an idea or a request for help. Reply to the message you have been putting off for a week, even with two words. Do not lend money to a friend today, and if you must, give only an amount you can afford not to get back.

Air Signs

The air signs find it hard to say what they feel today, because this Moon speaks little and thinks a lot. Gemini and Aquarius will be irritated more easily than usual, while Libra will think mostly about money, since the Moon is in its neighboring sign.

♊ Gemini

The tasks at work have been piling up for days, and today your sixth house, the house of daily work and health, demands order. Your mind jumps from one thing to another, so divide the day into 45-minute pieces with 10-minute breaks in which you get up from the chair. Your back and neck will tell you if you overdo it. Read a complicated email to a colleague once more before sending it, because Mercury is still retrograde.

♎ Libra

Your money is at the center today, because the Moon is in your second house, and Venus, your ruler, is retrograde. You will want to buy something expensive for yourself or for the home, but right now the purchase could easily turn out to be a mistake. Follow a 48-hour rule: the item you like stays in the cart for two days and only then do you decide. Instead of spending, check your subscriptions and cancel at least one that you do not use.

♒ Aquarius

Work and your bosses are watching you more closely today, because the Moon is in your tenth house, the house of career. The Scorpio Moon is in a tense angle to your sign and someone who gives orders will easily anger you. Do not get into an argument with a boss, whatever you hear. Write your ideas in a notebook and show them on Monday, when Mercury will already have started moving forward.

Water Signs

Water is at home today, and Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces catch people's mood before anyone has spoken. This sensitivity helps in conversations but is tiring, so the water signs need more sleep than usual.

♋ Cancer

Your heart wants joy today, and the Moon in your fifth house brings it through children, love and the things you do with your hands. If you have children, set aside an hour for them without lessons and without tasks, only play or conversation. If you are single, today is a good day to sign up for a course you have been putting off, or to take the old hobby out of the cupboard. Do not spend much on entertainment, Venus is still retrograde.

♏ Scorpio

The new moon happened in your sign, and today Mars, your old ruler, adds stubbornness and a desire for change. Your body may not withstand the pace if you sleep little and drink a lot of coffee. Go to bed by 23:00 tonight and drink water between coffees. Take a sheet of paper and write three things you want to change by spring, then put it away where only you will find it.

♓ Pisces

The desire to learn something new is strong today, because the Moon is in your ninth house of learning, faith and distant journeys. It is a good day to read a book that has been sitting unopened, 15 pages before sleep. Also look at the language courses in the city, many of them accept people even in the middle of the school year. If you are thinking about a trip, collect the prices in a table, and buy the tickets after a few days.

Tomorrow the Moon is already in Sagittarius and the mood becomes lighter, so it is better to have today the heavy conversations that cannot be postponed.
