Whether Pilates, TRX or MMA is your jam, today’s new moon in Virgo and your salubrious sixth house jump-starts your fall fitness plan.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Monday September 2
Survey your space, Gemini. Does it feel like your sacred oasis? Today, the year’s only new moon in Virgo activates your domestic corner, giving you the urge to (re)feather your nest so it feels like a reflection of your current vibe. Small touches, like a woven throw on the back of your sofa or painting an accent wall, can have a big impact. If the energy has been off with a relative or roommate since last month’s Mercury retrograde, this lunar lift can act as a balm, helping you to get back on the same wavelength.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Monday September 2
Don’t be too quick to bow out of the Labor Day barbecue, Cancer. With today’s new moon in Virgo activating your social third house, the company of friends is just what you need.

Take the initiative to get plans on the books with a casual friend you’d like to learn more about.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Monday September 2
Get a grip, Leo! On your wallet, that is. The annual new moon in Virgo activates your frugal second house, which could bring a few wake-up calls about your financial status. Don’t fly into a panic if the number in your bank account is lower than you realized. Over the next two weeks, you can plug holes in your budget where you’re leaking seemingly small amounts. Get clear about your current values. What’s worth splurging on and where would you be fine spending less?
