Ahead, you’ll find all the star signs’ horoscopes for today: Monday January 8, 2024.
Aries
March 21 to April 20
While your imagination can be a great asset, it’s still a good idea to touch base with the facts of the situation and take things from there. A plan could get a tad unrealistic over the next day or so, unless you keep things practical. There’s no harm in adding bells and whistles to a great idea, but don’t go too far. Ready for new challenges and adventures? There’s plenty to look forward to.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Be careful what you discuss, as a piece of news or secret shared can twist and change as it goes from person to person. It may be unrecognisable by the time it finishes the rounds. Mercury’s awkward tie with confusing Neptune, suggests it’s best not to talk about anything crucial as the chance of a misunderstanding and of the facts being skewed is much higher than usual, Taurus.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
You’ll be so pleased if it seems a dream is about to come true. And yet with Mars in Capricorn aligning with Saturn in Pisces, it helps to be realistic about your chances. Aim high, but keep your feet on the ground. Need advice? Check your sources and don’t take anything for granted. Ready to socialize for business, a collaboration or romance? Stay tuned for some excitement very soon.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Want to make a difference, but feel you’re falling short? You may have conflicting ideas and goals, which means it will be harder to make any headway. Today you’ll realize how being in such a state of indecision is affecting your ability to proceed in a timely manner. Whatever you hope to accomplish, be very clear about what you’re doing and why, and you’ll begin to flourish.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Mesmerized by someone? Today’s ethereal blend of energies hints that it’s best not to be in too much of a hurry to get to know them, even if they are irresistible. Very soon you’ll realize they have flaws, as everyone does. The same applies if you’re drawn in by a get-rich-quick scheme. Give it a wide berth. Later in the week you’ll discover better ways to increase your income.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Is someone being a tad critical? It may be that they haven’t understood your reasons for something you’ve done. Don’t take their words personally. Reaching out to them and engaging in a heart-to-heart chat is the last thing they expect, but it might help them to take you more seriously. Ready to redecorate your home? Venus In Sagittarius hints at warm and spicy tones.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Plans could go awry, as Mercury makes an unfortunate angle to dreamy Neptune. This may be one of those times when you’re keen to get something right, but a misunderstanding makes everything go wrong. Take it in your stride, as with practical energies developing, you’ll find it a simple matter to make the best of a difficult situation, and even to turn it around, Libra.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
You’ll feel a pull towards something or someone, but should you follow through? A dreamy aspect suggests it may seem perfect, but then again, it might not be. So, if an offer, opportunity or encounter appears too good to be true, then it probably is. Wait a day or so, as you’ll get a more practical perspective. And you’ll be able to make a decision with your eyes wide open.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Although matters seem to be moving in a promising direction, not every experience will be right for you. Be careful over the next day or so, as Mercury’s sharp tie with Neptune could cause you to be dazzled by something. This might not be a problem with small matters, but if you’ll be spending a lot of money then check every angle and make sure you aren’t caught out, Archer.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
With Mercury forging a nebulous tie, double check you really have got the message, as misunderstandings and confusing circumstances could get in the way of progress. If it seems that everything is moving too fast, slow down and double check it’s all okay. On another note, a little imagination can be just the ingredient needed to give a project a new lease of life, Capricorn.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Something could get lost in translation, so if you need to communicate about a matter of importance, make sure you get the facts right. A confusing blend of energies might make a mess of everything, unless you keep your wits about you. Double check that other people get it too. This way there’s less likelihood of things turning out the opposite of how they were meant to.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
You may think that what you’re saying makes perfect sense, but it might not. There are confusing cross-currents around, which means others could take your words the wrong way. Need to make a decision related to your job or business? Don’t let appearances fool you. Wait a day or so before you go ahead, Pisces. You’ll find it easier to go deep into this matter and make the right choice.
