Your daily horoscopes for Friday September 15, 2023
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Ready, set, organize! While Mercury’s been retrograde for the past three weeks, getting on the same page with other people—much less interpreting your OWN thoughts—has been an exercise in frustration. You may have found yourself stressing over the most trivial things. Staying on top of details was especially challenging since Mercury’s mayhem left you feeling scattered and muddled. The cosmic messenger resumes direct (forward) motion today, helping to clear up chaos. With your resistance down a quart, load up on immunity boosters like vitamins C and D, probiotics and as many dark leafy greens as you can eat.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Love on the rocks? For the past couple weeks (since August 23), Mercury has been retrograde in Virgo and your passionate fifth house. An ex may have resurfaced, vying for another chance. Or some past drama may have bubbled up again, complicating matters with a trail of misunderstandings. Are you exhausted yet? Today, Mercury resumes direct (forward) motion. You can exit out of this soap opera, hopefully unscathed, and stop fanning the flames of all these heated emotions. It’s time to bring back the love…and the white-hot seduction too.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Ever since your cosmic caregiver, Mercury, turned retrograde on August 23, you’ve added some new “f-words” to the list, namely flirting and family. With the messenger planet backing up through your domestic quarters, not even a gushing apology could get things back on track. But take heart, Twin. Today, the scandal, intrigue and infighting will end as Mercury returns to direct (forward) motion. Give fraught relationships a little more space, then in a week, take another crack at making amends.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Say what? Communicator Mercury has spent the last three weeks backpedaling in retrograde motion, throwing your conversations, technology and travel plans into a tailspin. It’s been a trying time for everyone, but you of all people always take pains to express yourself with sensitivity—and even that failed to register. Sheesh! (On the upside, you may have reconnected with an old friend or healed a rift with a sibling.) Today, Mercury powers forward again, sweeping away the misunderstandings and breakdowns in your best-laid plans. While it’s been fun reuniting with old pals, it’s also safe to branch out again.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Cooperation and compromise…what’s that? With Mercury retrograde since August 23, agreeing on the smallest detail has been an exercise in frustration. Since the messenger planet has been backing up through your money house, budgets have been delayed. And you may have had to handle a few unexpected expenses to boot. Tension and miscommunications with clients and co-workers may also have flared during this tricky transit. Today, Mercury corrects course, restoring clarity to your cash flow and conversations. Go forth and make that deal! A stalled job application or client negotiation will get in motion again, too.
Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Could you repeat that please, Virgo? For the past three weeks, communication planet Mercury has been in a signal-jamming retrograde, making you feel downright misunderstood—especially since the winged messenger has been spinning backward through YOUR sign. Negotiations have stalled, and you’ve been unsure exactly where you stand with anyone. Today, your cosmic ruler corrects course, clearing up the chaos and helping you get your point across. No need to bite your tongue or retract every statement you make anymore. Talk about relief! You have the green light to promote projects and get back into the public eye again. Ready, set, launch!
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Life has resembled a hall of mirrors since Mercury turned retrograde in your surreal twelfth house on August 23. But you can stop chasing mirages starting today. As the communication planet corrects course, the walls you’ve been bumping up against start looking more like open doors. It’s up to you whether or not to walk on through, but if you set intentions to explore freely, Libra, you’ll be amazed by what unfolds!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
There’s no “I” in “team,” but odds are, there hasn’t been much else in it either for the last three weeks. With Mercury retrograde in your collaboration zone since August 23, interpersonal dynamics have been patchy at best while your inner world may have been turbulent. Take heart, Scorpio. Today, Mercury returns to direct (forward) motion, restoring harmony to your mind, heart and squad. First step: Put on your diplomat hat and increase the peace!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Trying to get clear answers has been an exercise in futility ever since Mercury turned retrograde on August 23. A promising client may have ghosted; presentations that seemed like a go hit a string of yellow lights. But get ready to dive back into the action today! Crossed wires start clearing up as the messenger planet pivots back into direct motion. While it might take a moment to wrestle your goals back on track, don’t be deterred. Now that the communication planet has returned to forward motion, the pace picks up exponentially—and everyone’s ready to play ball.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Sweet relief! Communication planet Mercury ends a three-week retrograde today, clearing up relationship and technology breakdowns. This backspin’s been particularly intense since Mercury has been backstroking through Virgo, which rules your eighth house of intimacy, seduction and secrets. If you feel like you’ve been chasing your tail for answers, your sleuthing efforts could begin yielding concrete clues. Issues of jealousy and distrust may clear up in the days ahead. If an ex came sniffing around, you’ll soon know whether they should stay or go!
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Friday September 15
Two has not really been your magic number since August 23, thanks to Mercury’s retrograde spin through your relationship sectors. Communication may have been fraught with tension or misunderstandings. Signing contracts or getting any kind of commitment has also been impacted. Trying to seal a deal or get a straight answer could have felt like a (not so funny) comedy of errors, and maybe you had your own doubts or misgivings about an alliance. Today, Mercury corrects course, putting your closest ties back on solid ground. Sweet relief! Time to delete that disruptive ex’s number and start clearing the air with the people you want to keep around.
