Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
An extra shot of espresso for you, Aries? You won’t have much energy to spare this Saturday, with the moon nesting in your dreamy twelfth house. Tend to any necessary business early and clock out for the weekend. Tonight, decline that invite to the cocktail party and opt for something soothing like a restorative yoga class or cooking a one-pot dinner with a friend. If you’ve been stuck on an important decision, head to bed early. The answers could literally arrive in your dreams! On Sunday, the moon heads into Aries and you’re back in action. But where to direct that momentum? Suddenly, it seems like everyone’s got a strong opinion on what your next move should be. Okay, but what do YOU think? Close the polls and tune into your own inner wisdom. Need to sound it out? You might even give yourself an out-loud talking-to into your audio recording app. Then, let your ideas percolate and get outside. An epiphany could come while you’re on a walk or enjoying nature.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
Innovative ideas come a mile a minute on Saturday, Taurus, thanks to a lunar lift in your mad scientist zone. Make space in your day to play and experiment without having a fixed outcome in mind. By allowing the process to get messy (for a minute), you open yourself up to new discoveries. Wait a few days before sharing your “eureka!” findings with the general public, though. Until you can break it all down to bullet points, people may have a hard time grasping the concept. Earth to Taurus! Not only is the moon heading into your dreamy twelfth house this Sunday, but it’s catching a befuddling beam from the Sun, which could cause your hawk-eyed discernment to go MIA. You’re prone to fantasizing, romanticizing and blurring lines in ways that could come back to haunt you if you ignore red flags. So don’t! Unless you want to spend weeks sorting through the ensuing fallout, find your way back to solid ground.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
You drive a hard bargain, Gemini, but this Saturday’s stars call for a gentler style of negotiation. Warm up your audience with a little chit-chat before you get down to brass tacks or start emailing contracts. We don’t have to tell YOU that small talk isn’t a waste of time. You’re priming the pump so that these relationships can flow with ease in the future. By the same token, this is NOT the day to get overly personal, even in a casual weekend setting. Sharing a lighthearted anecdote is one thing; regaling tales of a hellish first date? Not yet. Your democratic approach is commendable, Gemini, but this job needs to get DONE. Sunday’s Sun-moon mashup brings a message: The most compassionate thing you can do for your crew today is to help them cross the finish line. After all, nothing feels sweeter than a shared sense of accomplishment!
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
Enough waiting around for other people to take the initiative. Saturday’s Pisces moon in your audacious ninth house serves you a hot pink cup of courage. Whether you’re exploring a new scene or asking someone out for a weekend hang (that COULD potentially do double duty as a date), be bold! Nothing piquing your interest close to home? Start planning a road trip. A friend living a few cities away might have a guest bedroom with your name on it. Or scout out a music festival or lecture series worth the drive. Spontaneity is in the air! In your effort to consider everyone’s input, has a mission drifted off-course? Don’t let other people’s insecurities prevent YOU from shining this Sunday. An awkward Sun-moon mashup invites you to bring out your exuberant nature. But you may see this live-out-loud energy as an act of defiance toward someone who’s been trying to silence you or keep you down. We’re not suggesting a combative attitude; just serve confidence by speaking freely without seeking permission or validation.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
Are you hanging on too tightly, Leo? With Saturday’s moon in your intense eighth house, your lock-tight grip can send people running in the opposite direction. You’re only human, and we all have possessive moments. But here’s the thing: No one can reassure your jealousy or insecurities away. What’s needed is NOT more time and attention from your sweetheart (or your best friend or whoever is riling up the experience of neglect). Instead, do something to connect with your own magic. Book studio time to lay down vocals or work on a painting; or try a flowing fitness class like acro-yoga. You’ll quickly realize how much fun it is to be WITH yourself. Stop deliberating this Sunday and commit to a course of action. You can spend all of eternity weighing the pros and cons, but let’s face it: You don’t have that kind of time. Release the idea that there’s a “perfect” path to follow, and forge ahead. Regardless of the choice you make, you’ll derive SOME sort of satisfaction from it. With every new activity you try, you discover something new about yourself. That alone will be fulfilling!

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
This Saturday, as the Pisces moon beams into your partnership zone, embrace the power of two. Could your relationships use some TLC? We’re not talking about caretaking, Virgo; that’s just draining. Instead, find ways to sync up your talents with another superstar over the next couple days. In love, what can you co-create with your person? Devise a weekend project (or a fun plan!) that plays to your individual strengths. If joint obligations have fallen out of balance, divide them up anew. You don’t have to split everything 50/50, just make sure that you’re pulling equal-feeling weight. You staunchly stand behind your opinions, Virgo, but an uncompromising attitude could drive a wedge between you and a certain person this Sunday. Disagreeing is one thing. Muting other people’s perspectives will only cause mutiny. If you can’t find common ground, take your distance for the day. With little breathing room, you’ll cool down and might hit on a creative compromise.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
With Saturday’s moon stirring the pot in your sixth house of efficiency, take a timeout from productivity to get all your systems in place. Are you keeping too much data in your head? There’s probably an app to help with that, so let your devices clear up some “storage space” (and serenity!) in your mind. If you’re engaged in any vague agreements, spell out the details, including hourly rates, job descriptions, materials cost and timelines. You might have to ask a few “duh” questions, but better to blush a little than to let things turn into a giant, and potentially costly, mess. There’s nothing wrong with craving attention, Libra, but the way you ask for it makes a difference under Sunday’s complicated Sun-moon angle. Push too hard, and you’ll get resistance. Play passive-aggressive games and you’ll piss people off! Just ask the object of your desires if they have time for you. And if the answer is “not today” or “how about later?” no pouting allowed! Redirect anxiety into a grounding activity, like a scenic hike or dancing in your living room.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
Spoiler alert: A slow and delicious Sunday is in store for you tomorrow. But don’t save your best going-out clothes until then. With Saturday’s Pisces moon amplifying your love zone, Cupid swings by for a pre-party. Meet the object of your affections for a sexy dinner or hang out with single friends at a venue with prime flirting opportunities; you don’t need a date to enjoy this romantic moment. Make restaurant reservations and have a concert ticket waiting at will-call! Sunday’s uncomfortable dance between the Sun and moon could make it hard for you to trust your own gut. Then, the cacophony of opinions swirling around you won’t bring much ease to your decision-making process. If you get a “hit,” don’t rush to act on it. Instead, probe a little to see if you’re on the right path. An open-ended question will get you farther than anything. Try something simple like, “How did that make you feel?” Be sure to ask yourself that same question, too.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
One person’s junk is a Sagittarian’s treasure, especially under the glow of Saturday’s vintage-vibing Pisces moon. If an object has a patina, a backstory or a little rust? Score! Need to add more flair to your home or office? Head to an architectural salvage or thrift store. Apply the same mindset to relationships. Who are the people with whom you have “history?” Weathering the ups and downs is what creates true intimacy. Get back in touch! A warm-fuzzy text thread could quickly evolve into Sunday plans, slumber party optional. Broad-minded Archers are always willing to consider new perspectives. But be careful what you buy into on Sunday, when a befuddling Sun-moon angle raises your gullibility. Someone may be speaking in total confidence yet spewing unsubstantiated myths. Since you won’t be the best at figuring out the truth, make sure that you thoroughly research whatever compelling stories you hear.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
You’re a formidable presence, Sea Goat, but is your force field preventing new friends from approaching you? With Saturday’s free-flowing Pisces moon buzzing through your social third house, go out of your way to be inviting and open. You could connect to a kindred spirit in the most random of places, like at the farmers market or while you’re grabbing a falafel from a food truck. Searching for a project partner? Send out a casting call instead of working with the same recruits. And yes, trust takes time to build, so test the waters with a short-term collaboration to make sure your working styles mesh. You may be tempted to hold it all in during Sunday’s tangled angle between the Sun and the moon, but that’s the opposite of what you should do. Rather than put on a brave face, reach out to someone who can actually help you figure this out—or at least point you toward helpful resources. Release the myth that you’re “burdening” people. You’ve been generous with so many, now it’s your turn to receive!

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
With Saturday’s idealistic Pisces moon powering up your finance zone, don’t just keep your mind on your money, be mindful about how and where you spend it. Sure, it may be more convenient to order online. But supporting small businesses is what keeps neighborhoods vibrant and diverse. Check your shopping list: What could you pick up from a local brick-and-mortar shop while you’re out running weekend errands? And don’t forget: You vote with your dollar. Grab goods from stores with happy employees who are paid proper wages. People’s infuriating behavior could push you close to your edge this Sunday—never the best terrain for an Aquarius to tread upon. Rather than unleash a rampage, go do something that falls into the “extreme self-care” strategy: a 90-minute massage, a spa pedicure, a drive to a scenic spot where you can read a book in peace. Once you’ve got a handle on your emotions, don’t sweep the issue under the rug. Set crystal-clear boundaries and make sure people know precisely where they lie.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday August 29
Twirl! You’re in your element again as the moon percolates in Pisces on Saturday. Turn up the charm and you’ll leave people spellbound. Just make sure you actually want them in that enchanted state. Once they’re captivated, they won’t be quick to say goodbye. Don’t overload your weekend with other people’s agendas. You need free time to plunge into a passion project. No judgments in this first phase, please! Make the goal to get a rough outline on paper or simply to make art for art’s sake. Mixed signals in one of your relationships could throw you for a loop this Sunday. Instead of playing detective, do something that feels uncomfortable for your sign—confront it head-on. A frank conversation about the future may reveal different visions, but hang in there. Keep talking it through and you might come up with a compromise that you both can get on board with.
