🦀 Welcome In ✨
Hi friends — whether you’re stopping by for the first time or you check in with me often, I’m so glad you’re here. 💫
👋 I’m Laura, intuitive astrologer and psychic medium, and every day I take what’s happening in the sky and turn it into guidance you can actually use.
My goal is simple: to help you feel supported, inspired, and more connected to your path.
🌌 Today’s Energy at a Glance
The Moon has been hanging out in Libra for about three days, and it’s finally finishing its stay.
This has had many of us tuned into relationships, balance, and fairness — noticing where life feels equal and where it doesn’t.
By later today, the Moon will slip into Scorpio, turning the emotional dial up from “keep the peace” to “let’s go deeper and get real.”
The Sun is now shining in Virgo, bringing that “back-to-school” vibe — tidying up, getting organized, and making space for what’s next. Even small steps count right now.
But the real star player is Venus in Leo.
She’s touching nearly every corner of the sky, so love, relationships, creativity, and self-worth are the themes of the day.
The sweet moments feel even sweeter, but anything unresolved in love or self-esteem may come up louder too.
If it does, it’s not to punish you — it’s showing you where healing wants to happen.
🔥 Extra Layers You’ll Feel Today
• Pulled in four directions at once (Grand Cross) → You might feel like you’re being stretched thin — wanting love, independence, balance, and growth all at once. It’s a lot! But this pressure is how the universe helps you see what really matters.
• Curveballs + Restlessness (Sun square Uranus) → If you’re feeling restless or something unexpected pops up, don’t panic. Surprises today are meant to shake you free from old patterns and remind you that flexibility is your superpower.
✨ The Big Takeaway
Yes, the sky is a little noisy right now. But underneath it all, the universe is helping you realign, heal old wounds, and grow stronger in love and self-worth.
Think of today as both a gentle clean-up (Virgo Sun) and a cosmic breakthrough (Venus + Grand Cross).
If emotions feel intense, it’s only because you’re stepping into more truth and authenticity.
✨ Your Horoscopes for Today ✨
(Read your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs — each one adds another layer to your story.)
Now let’s see how this energy might be showing up personally for you ⬇️
⸻
♈ Aries
What’s rising: Relationship wounds may feel loud (Moon opposite Chiron). You might notice where you crave more fairness or recognition in love.
Tip: Instead of reacting, ask: “What do I need to feel seen right now?” — then communicate that gently.
⸻
♉ Taurus
What’s rising: Your daily flow may feel off-balance. Responsibilities vs. what you actually want to do could clash.
Tip: Don’t try to “fix everything.” Choose one small task to complete — that alone will bring peace.
⸻
♊ Gemini
What’s rising: Creative sparks are high, but so is drama in love or friendships (Venus in Leo). You may feel pulled into someone else’s emotional storm.
Tip: Stay playful. Bring humor into the mix — it will diffuse tension and bring perspective.
⸻
♋ Cancer
What’s rising: The Libra Moon lights up home + family themes. You may feel torn between keeping peace with others and honoring your own needs.
Tip: Choose comfort. Do one thing tonight that makes your space feel calm and safe.
⸻
♌ Leo
What’s rising: Venus in your sign is making you magnetic — but also stirring old insecurities. Attention may feel both wonderful and overwhelming.
Tip: Let compliments land. Say “thank you” without brushing it off — Spirit is reminding you you’re worth being seen.
⸻
♍ Virgo
What’s rising: The Sun in your sign is spotlighting you — but surprises (Sun square Uranus) may throw your plans off.
Tip: Be flexible. If the day doesn’t go as planned, trust it’s the universe redirecting you, not blocking you.
⸻
♎ Libra
What’s rising: With the Moon in your sign squaring Venus + Pluto, relationships may feel extra charged. You might feel pulled in different directions emotionally.
Tip: Pause before people-pleasing. Ask yourself: “What do I honestly want?” — then honor it.
⸻
♏ Scorpio
What’s rising: The Moon soon enters your sign, so emotions may intensify. You may feel restless or like you’re on the edge of a shift.
Tip: Carve out privacy. A little solo recharge tonight will help you process before sharing with others.
⸻
♐ Sagittarius
What’s rising: Friendships and group dynamics are lit up. You may feel like you’re holding the balance between people or ideas.
Tip: Be the bridge, not the fixer. Share your perspective, but don’t carry everyone else’s emotional load.
⸻
♑ Capricorn
What’s rising: Career and recognition are front and center (Moon + MC). You may feel the weight of expectations.
Tip: Focus on what you value most, not outside approval. Small wins today matter more than perfection.
⸻
♒ Aquarius
What’s rising: Restless energy may be pushing you to explore, learn, or break free from old routines.
Tip: Try one new thing tonight — even small (a different walk, meal, or show). It will refresh your energy.
⸻
♓ Pisces
What’s rising: Emotional depth is calling. You may feel old wounds rise around trust, intimacy, or sharing resources.
Tip: Release control. Journal or meditate on one fear you’re ready to let go of — even naming it starts the healing.
⸻
🔮 Spirit’s Whisper for All Signs
No matter your sign, today is about finding your balance, staying flexible, and remembering that growth often comes through moments of discomfort.
If emotions feel stirred, it’s only because you’re being guided closer to your truth — and the universe, Spirit, and your higher self are walking with you every step of the way.
🦀 Spirit’s Message: Crab – Protection
How fitting for today’s energy — the Crab arrives to remind you of the power of protection.
Just like the crab carries its armor wherever it goes, you too are invited to check in with your boundaries and the ways you keep yourself feeling safe, both physically and spiritually.
Protection isn’t just about locks on doors — it’s about protecting your energy, your peace, and your heart.
With Venus lighting up relationships today and the Moon stirring emotions, the Crab asks: Where do you need stronger boundaries so you can feel secure and supported?
✨ Affirmation: I am protected wherever I go.
💖 Ways to Work with this Message Tonight
• Energy check-in: Place your hand on your heart and say out loud, “I call back all of my energy to myself now.” Notice how your body softens when you claim that power.
• Soothing rituals: Light a candle, take a salt bath, or wrap yourself in your softest blanket. These are physical ways of signaling to your nervous system: “I am safe.”
• Practical protection: Look at where you’ve been leaving yourself exposed — maybe oversharing online, skipping rest, or letting certain people drain your time. Choose one small thing to tighten up today.
• Spiritual shield: Visualize a soft golden light wrapping around you like the crab’s shell. Imagine it filtering out stress and letting love in.
💫 A Heartfelt Send-Off
As we close out today’s energy, let the Crab remind you that you are always safe to be yourself.
Protection doesn’t mean shutting the world out — it means creating a cozy space where your heart, spirit, and dreams can grow without fear.
Tonight, give yourself permission to soften, to wrap yourself in comfort, and to trust that Spirit has you held. ✨
