Your daily horoscopes for Wednesday July 19, 2023
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Who’s in charge around here? Good question! With disruptor Uranus throwing shade at the indie-spirited Leo moon in your creativity sector, you won’t take kindly to people’s unsolicited feedback. Make sure you’re not dishing out any yourself, though, Ram! If you suddenly realize that a team task is headed off the rails, you might need to grab the wheel—or pull the emergency brake. Just don’t sit there stalled out! Put that strategic brain to work!
The Astrology Advantage
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
A personal project could pull you in two directions today, but easy on those “stretch goals.” With disruptor Uranus in your sign, you’re feeling large and in charge—and like you could pull off almost anything. Yet today, the loose cannon of the zodiac is clashing with the intuitive moon in your sensitive fourth house. Maybe you could live with whatever mess this spins up, but what about the people around you? Take time to recalibrate your plan so that it takes into consideration everyone’s need for quiet and rest…including your own!
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Cat got your tongue? Maybe that’s a GOOD thing, Gemini! An uneasy square between the unfiltered Leo moon in your house of self-expression and unpredictable Uranus in your unconscious twelfth house could turn you into a bit of a loose cannon, so biting your lip might be the wisest—or at least the most cautious—strategy today. You don’t always have to take the lead in every conversation; in fact, it’s a good practice to sometimes just sit back and listen. You’ll come off interested, involved…and mysteriously wise!
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Too much togetherness—or not nearly enough—could be taking a toll on an important friendship. But don’t slip down the rabbit hole of resentment, especially if you never talked about what’s going on (or not going on) and how you’re feeling about it. Today, your ruler, the reactive moon, in your security sector spins into an edgy square with provocateur Uranus in your social sector. You might be tempted to lash out, but is that really the best way to resolve this conflict?
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
No shortcuts! With the moon in your creative, playful sign, you’d rather work on the flourishes and adornments of a presentation than the down-and-dirty details. Ah, but that’s what’ll sell people on this project—NOT the bells and whistles. Today, as la luna clashes with rebellious Uranus in your career corner, rein in your visionary artiste and try to see things from the potential client’s or investor’s side. Pretty images only go so far when you’re trying to win over the financers.
Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Sorry, Virgo, but “ostrich” is not a good look for you. Your meticulous, detailed sign doesn’t generally ignore facts and situations that are right in front of your face. And yet today, the childlike Leo moon in your unconscious twelfth house is clashing with unpredictable Uranus in your visionary, almost otherworldly ninth house. If you’re working on a creative problem, it would be helpful to stretch way outside the normal boundaries. But if you need to trim a budget or move up a deadline, you need to deal in the cold, hard, incontrovertible facts.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Don’t fall prey to someone trying to lure you into their confidence by sharing a juicy tidbit of gossip or acting like you’re the “only person in the world” they trust with their secret. While you enjoy your role as trusted sounding board, you’re also good at sussing out a potential psychological trap. With the generous Leo moon in your friendship sector getting shade from unreliable Uranus in your privacy zone, watch for your own susceptibility to codependence—and if you catch even a whiff, find the exits!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Buckle your seat belt, Scorpio: There may be some speed bumps ahead as Uranus in your relationship sector sends a disruptive signal to the reactive moon in your prominent tenth house. It could be that your partner or someone close to you is jealous of your professional success—or simply envious that you still have (meaningful) work. Instead of getting angry or defensive, try to imagine what “lack” they might be feeling and treat them even more kindly!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
It’s always challenging for your adventurous sign to stay on a short leash, Archer, but that’s not a good excuse to rebel against whatever limitations you bump up against. And today, as the playful Leo moon in your bold ninth house gets in cahoots with unbridled Uranus, you may indeed be chomping at the bit. But rein yourself in! This is not the time to undo months of appropriate cautiousness. Find other ways to scratch that itch that won’t put you—or anyone—at risk.

Capricorn (December 22-January 18) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
You might be surprised by feelings that arise today, Cap, and even more so by your uncharacteristic eagerness to express them! Blame it on—or thank?—today’s interaction between the dramatic Leo moon in your seductive eighth house and triggering Uranus in your passionate fifth. If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect” moment to reveal or confess your true feelings to someone, first remember there’s no such thing as an IDEAL time, and second, if there were, this might be it.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
You could experience a sudden change of perspective toward someone under today’s heartstring-tugging alignment of the dramatic Leo moon in your relationship realm and spontaneous Uranus in your sentimental fourth house. Just-like-that you might be ready to let bygones be bygones and start a new chapter with this person. At the very least, you can send a “test balloon” text to gauge their reaction to your out-of-the-blue overture.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Wednesday July 19
Resist! Before you reach for that brownie or large pour of sparkling rose, stop for a moment and consider whether this is something you REALLY want or whether you’re acting out of conditioning. Today, as the hedonistic Leo moon in your wellness realm catches shade from unruly Uranus, you have a rare chance to “catch yourself in the act.” Too often we go through the motions barely conscious of what we’re doing. But with Uranus sounding this wake-up call, you owe it to yourself to answer.
