Your daily horoscopes for Monday April 8, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
Pop some bubbles for your personal cosmic new year, but watch where that cork goes flying! Today’s new supermoon in Aries calls for celebration and intention-setting, but since it’s also a total solar eclipse, your most obvious desires may not be the ones to race after. Dig a little deeper, Ram. Write out a wish list, then, give it a once- (twice- and thrice-) over. Can you connect your desires to a bigger cause or a meaningful community where you’d like to make an impact? The true blessings come when you manifest for yourself AND others.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
What’s happening below the surface? Today’s new moon in Aries—also a supermoon and total solar eclipse—could plunge you into deep introspection. La luna helps you release past pain as you set intentions for a healing six-month cycle. What are you stubbornly clinging to that no longer serves you? Let it go, Bull, or it may be “eclipsed out” of your life for your own good. Think of creative new practices that might soothe you on a cathartic level, like adult coloring or painting, meditation or maybe an overdue day (or week!) at the spa.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
Your social circles are abuzz as today’s new supermoon in Aries ripples through your eleventh house of friendships and connection. Since it’s also a game-changing total solar eclipse, its effect could broaden your reach in unexpected ways. Use this starmap to expand your network or explore an intriguing new scene. With this much cosmic fairy dust working its magic, you might even become the “supreme” of your coven over the next six months. Got a digital initiative to explore or launch? Do some market research or final rounds of testing so you can set it in motion after Mercury turns direct on April 25.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
Today’s new supermoon in Aries raises the bar for success! Before you race off to victory, though, pause to consider: Do you need to add more soul to your goals? Since this new moon is also a total solar eclipse, it lifts the veil on all considerations. Think about how your actions will impact the ecosystem at your home or office (or both). You may need to tweak your plan to take a few more outside factors into account. This is also a solid cue to broaden your professional network, hire a brand consultant or hone your public presence and profiles—a great project to work on while Mercury is retrograde until April 25.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
Wanderlust could lure you in unexpected directions today as a total solar eclipse—and new supermoon—in Aries charges up your worldly ninth house. A place you’ve never considered roaming could come across your radar. Explore the possibilities, which may include traveling for business or spiritual expansion over the coming six months. Entrepreneurial ventures and media projects also get a boost. If you’ve been longing to work more independently, consider this a green flag to start making that move. But don’t let this impassioned eclipse spur you to rage-quit since you never know who might provide a future stepping stone.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Monday April 8
Today’s new moon in Aries—also a potent supermoon and game-changing total solar eclipse—might not be for the faint of heart. But it WILL kick off a spellbinding six-month chapter of merging: financially, sexually or emotionally. This new moon falls in your intimate eighth house, prompting you to examine ways that two entities can form a whole that’s greater than the sum of its parts. It might be time to explore pooling resources, a joint business venture or a walk down the aisle. Conversations like these may crop up out of the blue, but wait until Mercury turns direct on April 25 to make any binding decisions.

Turn over a new leaf today, Scorpio, and make sure it’s dark green and chock full of nutrients!

Since it lands in your sixth house of work and wellness, you’ll be keen to clean up every square inch of your life, from your cluttered office to the junk food in your cupboards.

Welcome a burst of renewal into your personal quarters as today’s new supermoon and total solar eclipse arrives in Aries and your fourth house of home and family. Warning: Not every revelation will be exciting, at least not initially. You may discover an urgent repair is needed or have an uncomfortable conversation with a relative. By the same token, it’ll be a relief to finally get it all out in the open. At least now you can proactively solve the issue. A real estate deal could present itself out of the blue. Pursue, but pace yourself. With Mercury retrograde until April 25, you need to respect the process.
