Aries Weekly Horoscope

Are you ready for your closeup? The camera is zooming in as the year’s only full moon in your sign shines a white-hot spotlight on YOU this Friday, September 29. While you have everyone’s attention, consider what you’ve been working on since spring that you might want to show off now. Polish it up with any necessary finishing touches and practice your acceptance speech in preparation for the accolades that are coming your way. If it’s not quite done yet, pick up the pace and give it all you’ve got until you cross the finish line.

Got oodles of motivation and energy, but your vision is still vague? Let your imagination roam free and see what lights you up. Perhaps an idea that hit like a lightning bolt around the Aries new moons on March 21 and April 20—the second of which was a potent solar eclipse. Don’t worry about mastering it on your first try. Test a smaller iteration and find out how it works and how you feel. Knowing your swift sign, you’ll decide pretty quickly whether it’s a keeper.

Your predilection for speed could get you into hot water later on Friday, September 29, when sociable Venus in your passionate fifth house tussles with erratic Uranus in stubborn Taurus. You’ll have a short fuse to begin with, so if you get even a hint of shade from someone…oh, it’s on! Not so fast, Ram. Hold your fire, no matter how obvious that person’s dig was. Their will is likely to be equally as strong as yours, and neither of you will come out of this battle smelling like a rose. Your challenge is to recognize your own aggression and to temper it before you react. Maybe you feel justified in lashing out and don’t want to take the high road after they just pushed your buttons—possibly intentionally, to get a rise out of you. If you can resist the bait they’re dangling, though, you’ll produce a different outcome. That’s worth slowing your roll for, isn’t it?

This tense square also comes with a retail-therapy alert. When you’re this quick on the trigger and impulsive Uranus is in your finance zone, the urge to splurge is bound to cause problems. Set yourself up for success by keeping your wallet out of reach and temporarily hiding payment apps on your phone. Then when that shiny “must have” catches your eye, you’ll have time to talk yourself out of a regrettable overspend.
