Your daily horoscopes for Wednesday September 4, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
Chez Ram is the place to be for the next two months as your red-hot ruler, Mars, moves into your domestic zone until November 3. On the plus side, this can infuse your home and family life with exciting energy, whether you’re hosting parties or turning an unused alcove into an artist’s nook. In the market for a move? Put the word out to your inner circle, but make sure you’re actually ready to pack up. An ideal listing could open up fast under this accelerated energy. Watch your temper with relatives and roomies during this Mars cycle. If you’re feeling especially impatient, be proactive and let them know you need some “me” time.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
Lift your nose from the grindstone, Bull. Energetic Mars sails into Cancer and your third house of hometown happenings until November 3, proving that your community has more to offer than you thought. And if not? This is your cue to pick up the baton and start organizing that book club, wine tasting or karaoke night with a local venue. Since the third house also rules communication, this eight-week Mars cycle will turn up the volume on your expression. While it’s wonderful that you’re passionate about certain issues, be careful you don’t steamroll with your strong views.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
Life’s been moving at warp speed since go-getter Mars joined expansive Jupiter in your sign this past July 20. With this fast and furious planet in your sign since then, abundance (and a bit of anxiety) has been flowing, keeping you on the go. It’s been a fun ride, but it’s time to shift gears into a more sustainable and grounded pace. Today, the red planet moves on to Cancer and your sensible second house. Between now and November 3, focus on getting some traction for all your big ideas. A word of warning: Warrior Mars here can pile on work or money pressure. Although you will welcome more interesting projects into your world, take on only what you can truly handle.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
H-O-T-T-O-G-O! Nothing’s holding you back as make-it-happen Mars shifts into Cancer, powering you up with rocket fuel until November 3. It’s been a year and a half since the warrior planet zipped through your sign, so make the most of it. Channel this surge of inspiration and energy into an important goal. If you’ve got an entrepreneurial venture brewing or another passion project you’re thinking of launching, you’ve got the cosmic green light to forge ahead. You’ll feel like the Energizer Bunny and will work well independently during this phase. In fact, you might crave more freedom to do your own thing. If the urge to overhaul your life takes over, remember that Mars can be impulsive. Pace yourself so you don’t bite off more than you can chew.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
Was it real or just an illusion? As motivator Mars moves into your twelfth house of rest and completions until November 3, you may discover that certain things (and people) are NOT what they seem. Instead of forcing things, pull back and hand the universe the wheel for the next eight weeks. Don’t think of this as being passive, Leo. Rather, you’re allowing time and space to come in and support with healing. Creativity will also be cathartic, and you might even experience a renaissance during this Mars cycle. Be it through art, music, prose or another form of expression, channel those feelings you’ve been keeping bottled up.

Motivator Mars zips into your eleventh house of group activity until November 3, revving up your social life.

Heads up: Mars likes to stir the pot, so if a specific group is rife with tension, step back. Don’t get entangled in backstabbing antics and small-minded squabbles.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
You’re on the fast track to success as go-getter Mars blasts into Cancer and your ambitious tenth house until November 3. This eight-week cycle is prime for supersized goals and connecting with the power players in your field. Heads up: Obsessive Mars can bring out a workaholic streak, so guard against going to extremes. Schedule playtime into your agenda. It won’t take anything away from your mission.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Wednesday September 4
Break out of your comfort zone, Scorpio. Grand adventures and personal growth are calling your name as ambitious Mars shifts into Cancer and your expansive ninth house until November 3. As it turns out, you can feel “at home” in plenty of places—not just the same familiar corners of the planet. The next eight weeks could yield a life-changing travel opportunity or a chance to study with a master teacher you’ve long admired. Cast a wider net and don’t let your fears limit your expansion.
