Your daily horoscopes for Thursday September 26, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
It’s commitment time! Communicator Mercury settles into your seventh house of partnerships until October 13. While you’re usually the maverick in the crowd, Aries, you’re eager to pair up now. Seize the moment: Brainstorm with a business partner or strategize with a creative collaborator. Romantic relationships also figure front and center during this cycle as commitments deepen. Coupled? You’ll crave more conversation with your partner. You’ve got plenty to say, Ram, so why don’t you start?
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Break out the supplements, yoga mat and cold-pressed juicer. Wellness goals are front and center as detailed-oriented Mercury moves into your sixth house of self-care until October 13. It won’t be hard to map out a plan that works with your lifestyle. And with Mercury’s social influence, friends may happily join you in this feel-better mission. If energy is lagging, you might be suffering from a food sensitivity or hormonal imbalance. Schedule doctors’ appointments to get your blood levels checked. The sooner you deal, the sooner you’ll heal—and be ready to take on that 30-day challenge at your gym or yoga studio!
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Flirt alert! Let your flamboyant side out to play, Gemini. Your planetary ruler, expressive Mercury, decamps to your passionate fifth house until October 13, paving the way for white-hot wordplay. Risque banter is just your speed, but be careful what you put in writing. You’d hate for that sizzling sext to end up in the wrong hands. Creatively speaking, your imagination knows no bounds during this cycle. Follow the muse and see what you can compose. Rock those edgier pieces in your closet or do something wilder with your hair. Even if it’s temporary, you’ll love standing out during this three-week cycle.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Compassion and communication go hand-in-hand over the next three weeks as expressive Mercury shifts into Libra and nests in your sentimental fourth house. Between now and October 13, few things will feel better than nurturing your closest bonds. Here’s the excuse you’ve been waiting for to plan visits with beloved relatives and childhood friends. Does your home look like a storm blew through it? Savvy Mercury can restore order to your court and help you come up with chic systems for storing all your stuff. Consider hiring an organizer if this feels overwhelming.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
You’ll be quite the loquacious Leo for the next three weeks as mouthy Mercury breezes into Libra and fires up your communication zone until October 13. If you’re looking for your social fix, you probably won’t have to wander too far from your own front door. But if the local scene is as dry as the Sahara, this is your cue to start checking out new zip codes—even if you’re just commuting in as an adopted member of the ‘hood. Siblings and old friends may be your favorite companions during this cycle, but don’t be surprised if you discover that a neighbor is cooler than you realized. Just be your gregarious self and see who you attract.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Budgeting, saving and planning: This trifecta takes central importance between now and October 13 as mental Mercury (your cosmic ruler) moves through Libra and your second house of money. Tighten your purse springs, and if you want to save up for truly meaningful purchases, go on a temporary austerity plan. You could find greater fulfillment from your work now, either by connecting with colleagues or searching for a job that’s a better fit for your personality and skill set.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Live out loud, Libra! Communication planet Mercury zips into your sign for its annual visit, firing up your confident first house until October 13. Get the PR and social media campaigns underway. Shameless self-promotion is the fastest way to get your work (or just your sparkling self) into the public eye. This Mercury mojo will bring a wave of self-love, but the trick is to stop comparing yourself to other people and embrace the skin you’re in. Work with mantras to get your mind attuned to a powerful channel (“I celebrate my unique brand of beauty” or “I am beautiful, confident and radiant”). Want to really ace this lesson? Stand in front of the mirror and appreciate your reflection for a few minutes every day.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
The creative hemisphere of your brain will be firing on all cylinders for the next three weeks as messenger Mercury soars through your dreamy twelfth house. Between now and October 13, the muse will visit you regularly during your daydreams—and in your sleep. You won’t want to lose those inspired gems, so keep a capture tool like an unlined Moleskine notebook on your nightstand. This is a powerful time for healing and releasing negative thoughts. Work with a therapist or holistic healer to tap into the deep realms of your subconscious mind. You might even try EMDR or hypnosis.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Thursday September 26
Today, as communicator Mercury shifts into Libra and your innovative eleventh house, people will become your passion again. You’ll thrive in a collaborative work environment between now and October 13, which might mean that it’s time to turn a solo project into a joint venture. With your tech sector getting some divine downloads from Mercury, a digital venture could be a playground for prosperity. Spruce up your LinkedIn or TikTok feed to attract the right attention. Comment strategically on an influencer’s feed, and you could become virtual friends. Maybe it’s time to develop your own webinar to share some of the knowledge you’ve cultivated.
