Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Sometimes the greatest lessons come not from your successes but from your mistakes. We realize that’s not an Aries’ favorite thing to hear, but you ARE human, which means it’s inevitable that not every pitch you hit is going to be a home run. With the moon in free-thinking Gemini all weekend, see what valuable teaching can be gleaned from a recent misstep. Saturday’s moon-Venus opposition is the perfect moment to be honest and course-correct. You may have to humble yourself, but the breakthrough insight will be worth its weight in gold. Speaking of which, if your cash flow’s a little low, take a proactive stance to fix your finances with the help of Sunday’s pragmatic moon-Saturn square. Ask a savvy friend or adviser to help you draw up a budget for the remainder of the year. Are there certain areas where splurging has been purging your reserves? Cut back on those excessive expenses. With a little belt-tightening, you’ll be back on track in no time!
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
It’s hard to gauge a proper excitement level this weekend as the Gemini moon hits a speed bump in your pragmatic second house, opposing Venus on Saturday. Take a little extra time to really think through your next move. You might feel like you’ve got this completely nailed down, yet one final review could reveal where you’ve actually overlooked an important detail. If you recheck and still don’t see anything, ask an informed person to run one last pair of eyeballs over it. Better safe than sorry! On Sunday, the moon’s tense square to structured Saturn lends the discipline to roll up your sleeves. You may need to turn down an invite or make an earlier exit from brunch, but it will be well worth it when your life is back on track.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
You have the floor, Gemini, as the moon hangs in your sign all weekend. But for maximum impact, deliver your message with a sense of thoughtful deliberateness. On Saturday, a moon-Venus opposition could make people extra sensitive. It’s not like you should water down what you have to say. But DO think about how it will sound to people who are new to the subject matter or might not have the back story of how you arrived at your conclusion. Sharing the “why” behind your sentiment can be a great translation tool. On Sunday, the moon will square off against structured Saturn in your tenth house of career and authority. Instead of just going for it, talk to a mentor or a grounded friend and listen to their feedback.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Careful not to let facts blur with fiction this weekend as the moon sinks into the deep, dark waters of your esoteric twelfth house. Although YOU might not care if you’re brokering in reality or not, participating in any sort of deception could come back to bite you. If you don’t feel equipped to face any uncomfortable music, step back from situations that have any sort of sketchiness attached. With the moon opposite Venus on Saturday, the slope is just too slippery right now. If you need a weekend project, how about researching a vacation? With the moon squaring off with responsible Saturn in your travel sector, you might not be able to pack your bags today, but you could start a simple savings plan and get that dream destination on the calendar for early next year.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
You’re ready to take the bull by the horns this weekend. But before you rush headlong into something that’s a little above your pay grade, stop and get the lay of the land. This isn’t about your vision—that’s rock-solid. But you also should have a mapped-out game plan for accomplishing it. With the moon opposite Venus on Saturday, it might take a little extra coaxing to get others on board. On top of that, reaching out to others for needed support isn’t a sign of weakness but of wisdom! Fortunately, with the Gemini moon gracing your teamwork sector all weekend, you’ll know just what to say to rally an inspired team. Many hands WILL make light work—AND make the project a whole lot more fun! Heads up: A moon-Saturn square on Sunday could bring up control issues. Remember to share the spotlight instead of trying to have it all your way.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Sitting still won’t be easy under this weekend’s restless Gemini moon. But since it rises in your tenth house of achievement, you might feel the urge to accomplish something more meaningful than brunch and mani-pedis. Not that there’s anything wrong with those activities! But with the moon opposite aesthetic Venus on Saturday, you might not even like the results. On Sunday, the moon locks into a tense square with Saturn in your partnership sector. Rushing to conclusions (or judgment) about others could come back to bite you. Slow down and hear what they have to say before you insist on doing things your way. With an open heart and a growth-oriented mindset, you could discover something (or someone) that would otherwise be completely off your radar.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
If you want to be supportive, follow this rule: No preaching! With Saturday’s moon in Gemini and your effusive ninth house—opposite your ruler, diplomatic Venus—you could come off heavy-handed with your advice. Start by validating other people’s lived experiences. Then share a personal anecdote that illustrates how you dealt with a similar situation. You’ll appear relatable rather than holier than thou. But how many graphic details SHOULD you include? Every situation calls for its own level of transparency, Libra, and you should think about how your confessions will impact other characters in the tale. This is especially true on Sunday, when the moon squares off with restrained Saturn in your analytical, critical sixth house. Listen and ask questions and, above all, take extra care to read the room!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Burning the candle at both ends? Regenerative Scorpios seem to have an endless fuel supply, but even YOU need to stop and refill your tanks. Treat Saturday and Sunday like an extended self-care break. The Gemini moon is weekending in your introspective eighth house. On Saturday, la luna’s opposition to harmonious Venus shines the light on where you’ve been neglecting your well-being. This is a cue to stop trying to take care of everyone else’s needs and focus on your own. Sure, it’s nice to support your loved ones, but not if you have to sacrifice your own peace and balance to do so. Use this transit as an excuse to get into a new routine. Start a regular meditation practice, sign up for weekly workout classes and revamp your eating habits with some clean, green alternatives. Sunday’s moon-Saturn square reminds you to pull the plug on drama instead of feeding it your energy.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Forget going rogue, Archer, and embrace the process! With the moon shining in partnership-powered Gemini all weekend, the best way to move things along is to connect to people who could play a co-starring role in your future success story. But don’t move too quickly into dynamic-duo mode. With Saturday’s moon-Venus opposition, what starts off as white-hot chemistry could sizzle then fizzle. For now, ditch the agenda and just get to know them better. The synergies will reveal themselves naturally. On Sunday, the moon squares off with disciplined Saturn in your home and family sector. You may need to set clear boundaries with a relative who’s been a little too needy lately. Or perhaps it’s time to lean in to spending quality time together if you haven’t had enough of it lately.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
You say you hate drama, Cap, but make sure you aren’t the one inadvertently bringing it this weekend. The moon is spending Saturday and Sunday in snarky Gemini and your critical sixth house. And on Saturday, it will oppose aesthetic Venus, drawing the claws out. It’s a little TOO easy to spot flaws and even easier to verbally point them out. Unfortunately, even the most well-meaning “pro tip” could cut like a knife through someone’s pride. That doesn’t mean you should silence yourself. But timing and delivery are everything. Burn off your own irritation before you even think about offering support. Best way to do that? Jump into a fitness class or go for a fun bike ride or hike. On Sunday, the moon will square off against Saturn in your social third house. You may feel pressured to show up at an event out of “obligation.” While sometimes you do have to come through for friends, you can set aside an hour or two, rather than a whole day, and make just as much of an impact.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
With the moon in Gemini and your playful fifth house all weekend, you’ll definitely have a way with words. If you want to butter people up, you certainly can. Just make sure those compliments are genuine! La luna’s opposition to charming Venus on Saturday could make even a hint of false flattery come across as utterly disingenuous. Sunday brings a tense square between the moon and Saturn in Pisces, which is in your money house. You don’t have to break the bank to have a good time. Stick to a budget if need be—if not for yourself, to be fair to your friends who might not be quite as flush as certain others.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 19
Matters close to home take top billing this weekend as the moon lingers in Gemini and your domestic fourth house. But with la luna opposite people-pleasing Venus on Saturday, tensions may rise with a family member or close friend as you try to iron out details of a plan. Instead of unleashing a powder keg of resentment, just take a minute to consider YOUR needs, then weave them into the equation. You don’t have to spring into action just because someone asked for your help. (And in all reality, were they actually expecting you to put on a superhero’s cape?) To keep things on the level, ease into the weekend at a luxuriating pace. Once you’ve filled YOUR tanks, supporting your people comes naturally and joyfully. Do that on Sunday, when the moon squares off with restrained Saturn in Pisces, reminding you of your human limits. It’s more than okay to have them!
