Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
You might be licking your wounds this weekend due to a recent betrayal. Luckily, Saturday’s quarter moon in Gemini helps you move past the hurt and view the situation from a more balanced perspective. Yes, this stings, but you’ve learned an invaluable lesson. Instead of giddily rushing into things the next time round, you’ll make sure that your new pal actually earns the title of BFF. If you’ve retreated from the social scene, don’t give your nemesis that satisfaction. Get out and show your face, Ram. Sunday’s stars welcome you into the surreal world as the fearless Sun forms its annual sync-up with numinous Neptune in your dreamy twelfth house. While this is an optimal transit for letting your imagination run wild, it’s not so good for making complicated plans or editing that spreadsheet. Pro tip: So don’t even attempt anything too linear or data-driven. Follow your muse (or beloved) where they lead you! You’re sure to enjoy the journey as much as the final destination.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
Tired of always being the one who makes the plans? Saturday’s balancing quarter moon in your practical second house brings a helpful PSA about valuing your time and energy. But hang on, Bull! Before you unload on the “slackers,” do an honest appraisal. Is there a chance they stepped back because they assumed you had everything under control? If you want people’s support, relinquish some of the power and start asking others if they’ll pick up the tickets or make the reservation. On Sunday, don’t take people at their word, harsh as that sounds. Under the annual alignment of the proud Sun and distorting Neptune in your social sector, the only thing you can count on is that things WON’T be as they seem. Group dynamics could feel sketchy, but don’t jump to conclusions until you fully investigate.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
It’s important to keep your word, Gemini, but under today’s quarter moon in your sign, you may realize that you obligated yourself to a few activities out of sheer guilt. If so, give yourself permission to postpone or cancel. Your time is too valuable to waste being manipulated! While you’re on this self-focused kick, dust off a creative project you shelved and reflect on what changes you could make to enjoy a more balanced life. On Sunday, you might get struck by a lightning bolt of career inspiration as the creative Sun holds its annual summit with otherworldly Neptune in your tenth house of professional ambition. Even if a new goal feels a little out of reach, put it on your list. As they say, you lose 100 percent of the time you don’t even show up! Not sure what’s next on your path? Sit down and make a vision board. The images that attract you will tell the story.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
Saturday’s prescription? Relax, refresh, rejuvenate. The quarter moon in Gemini shines its balancing beams into your twelfth house of healing and escape, calling for a much-needed timeout. While you’re recharging your batteries, have a think: Do your current commitments excite you, Cancer, or do you feel drained just reviewing them? No more guilt! If you want to deactivate your membership in a group or step back from a leadership role, come clean. You don’t have to fill every blank space on your calendar. See what happens if you open up more room to just meditate or enjoy unstructured “me time.” On Sunday, the lofty Sun syncs up with dreamy Neptune in your house of knowledge, education and expanded horizons. Doing anything but the same old same old is what the doctor ordered. Don’t follow a preset itinerary or reflexively go to places with well-worn pins in them. If you don’t have a new destination or activity in mind, throw a cultural dart at the map and see where it lands!
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
You’re a force to be reckoned with, Leo, but just imagine what you can accomplish when you team up with like-minded powerhouses. If you’ve been quietly developing a passion project, Saturday’s quarter moon nudges you to explore a collaborative approach for the next stage of the game. Reach out to friends for the first round of feedback. Someone in the group could show a keen interest, and synergies could evolve from there. Seek out groups where you could meet kindred spirits. Expand your social horizons by doing something different (and intellectually stimulating) tonight. On Sunday, your intuitive Spidey senses will be working overtime as your ruler, the confident Sun, forms its annual alignment with otherworldly Neptune in your metaphysical eighth house. Steer clear of the teeming masses and enjoy intimate one-on-one time, or give yourself a card reading—or just drift off to a guided meditation.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
Are your actions aligned with your aspirations? Saturday’s quarter moon in your tenth house of long-term goals brings a reality check. While this can be sobering to more fanciful Virgos, it doesn’t have to be a stopping point. How can you make your mission a little more manageable? Perhaps scaling back for the first phase is the answer. If you refuse to compromise the grandeur of this vision, get clear about what it’s going to take to pull it off. This might be your cue to organize a fund-raising party or to start looking around for investors. On Sunday, the Sun mashes up with tender-hearted Neptune in your seventh house of dynamic duos. You could spontaneously forgive somebody’s recent “offense,” discover you’re head-over-heels for a new person or realize that your love interest isn’t so, um, interesting. Neptune makes things a little extra dreamier—but at the same time can distort so-called reality. Let yourself feel what you’re feeling, but hold off on making any irrevocable decisions or pronouncements until next week.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
If you’re going to shoot from the hip, make sure you’re using velvet-tipped arrows. Saturday’s quarter moon in your candid ninth house calls for an honest but diplomatic communication style. Fortunately, that’s a Libra specialty, so lean in to your natural grace. Do NOT hit “send” after banging out an inflammatory email. Save it to drafts and then remix it later in the week. Your heart may be in the right place, but your fiery missives will get lost in translation. On Sunday, put your own needs first, especially when it comes to relaxing and indulging in a little self-care. The focused Sun meets up with intuitive Neptune in your wellness zone, practically forcing you to slow down and pay attention to how you’re feeling—physically and mentally. Drop into a restorative yoga class or psych yourself up for a guided meditation with flowy music. Sometimes, Libra, BEING is more important than DOING.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
You love to be a mystery, Scorpio, but is your enigmatic allure blocking intimacy? Today’s quarter moon illuminates your sultry eighth house and encourages you to pull back the curtain… just a bit. You don’t need to bare your soul; just a taste will be more than enough to leave ’em clamoring for more. When it comes to romance, this lunar leveling sets the stage for soulful discussions AND a dash of wicked humor. Sexy doesn’t have to be THAT serious! Sunday’s skies sponsor the annual alignment of the passionate Sun and fantasy agent Neptune in your fifth house of amour. Shower your beloved with attention—and seductive surprises—or, if you’re single, give the kind of people who normally overlook serious consideration. They just might astonish you!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
How balanced is the give-and-take in your closest relationships? Saturday’s quarter moon beams into your partnership sector, revealing where certain connections might be out of sync. If you keep giving (and giving) with minimum ROI, hit the brakes. In your zeal, you may have come on too strong, but all is not lost. Just stand your ground and see if the other party reciprocates. If they’re worth their salt, they’ll step up. In the meanwhile, have YOU forgotten to appreciate one of your strongest allies? Make up for lost time and treat them to dinner tonight! You may be tugged toward home base on Sunday as the Sun forms its annual alignment with sentimental Neptune in your fourth house of domesticity. Keep those home fires lit and burning, Archer! These are the people who always have your back, and this weekend, it might be your turn to cover one of theirs.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
All things in moderation, Capricorn. Under Saturday’s quarter moon in your wellness zone, take a breather from intense boot-camp-style workouts in favor of a soothing yoga flow or a long walk outside. When it comes to nutrition, don’t be afraid to add a “forbidden” item or two to your plate. Indulging in a chocolate ganache doesn’t nullify the value of the organic carrot-ginger soup and roasted root veggies that preceded it. If you’ve swung to the opposite extreme, add more movement into your evening plans. Cancel your movie night and meet friends for dancing or candlelight yoga. On Sunday, the year’s only mashup of the bold Sun and distorting Neptune in your communication sector could muddle your message—ironic, since you’re so keyed up about it! Think before you speak, or post or tweet, and remember the golden rule of editing: When in doubt, leave it out!

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
Should you stay or should you go? That’s a tough call this Saturday, Aquarius. You’ve been longing for more security from a partner, but at the same time, you know that too much routine can be a real romance killer. Fortunately, a quarter moon in your electrifying fifth house zaps the boredom factor out of your love life. Whether it’s a dress-up dinner out on the town or some frisky fun behind closed doors, devote tonight to playtime. Single? Try a new app or sign up for a workshop where you could meet people who share your interests. For you, friendship is always the baseline for any sort of lasting attraction. Sunday brings the once-a-year mashup of the enthusiastic Sun and distorting Neptune in your money house, which can cloud your judgment. Don’t even think about buying anything that “randomly” lands on your social media feed. You could be a little emotionally vulnerable today, so take a pass and throw yourself into real-life activities!
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday March 16
Does your house feel like a home, Pisces…YOUR home, that is? As Saturday’s quarter moon in Gemini beams into your domestic zone, bless your nest with a few updates. If you’ve already curated the perfect furniture and art, switch around the placement—and maybe even pack a couple “collections” away to open up whitespace on the walls. (Ahhh, serenity.) With this lunar leveling in communicative Gemini, you could finally have a heart-to-heart with a noisy roommate or nosy relative. Be direct while extending the benefit of the doubt. They might not be aware that they’ve overstepped a boundary—or exceeded acceptable decibel levels. On Sunday, the radiant Sun and your ruler, idealistic Neptune, hold their annual summit in your sign. Don’t squander this gift chitchatting with randos. Set a goal and PURSUE with magnetic, enchanted abandon!
