Find out what the stars have in store (Picture: Metro.co.uk)

The celestial clash between Mercury, representing communication and rational thought, and Uranus, the harbinger of change and freedom, might have left you with a sense of restlessness.

Aries, you might have caught yourself daydreaming about breaking free from the mundane, but let’s steer clear of impulsive retail therapy – it’s not the remedy you seek.

Leo, perhaps seeking out a friend might break the routine and soothe the soul.

Ahead, you’ll find all the star signs’ horoscopes for today: Tuesday October 17, 2023.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Sticking to a budget may not be easy. Lively Mercury’s awkward tie with Uranus can be volatile, so care might be needed with money and everyday expenses. This aspect could be unsettling and lead to impulsive purchases. And yet it may also be part of a process of change that brings about positive benefits, especially if you and your partner are working together on this, Aries.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

An erratic blend of energies can leave you desiring some scintillating company, which you may get in the form of an inspiring encounter. A conversation might help you to appreciate possibilities that you hadn’t considered, opening doors onto exciting vistas. Plus, the Scorpio Moon and its link to Pluto, can compel you to be more adventurous with your daily goals.

While you may present a business-like front, a Moon/Neptune link indicates your mind might be elsewhere, and you could have a yearning to do anything but work. However, these dreamy thoughts can be harmless compared to a proposition you might be mulling over. Although tempting and a quick route to accomplish a goal, it may be a tad risky and something to avoid.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

As Mars continues its journey through your creative zone, it’s a prime time to get more involved in a hobby that could become a money-spinner. If you need to upgrade your skills, your determination means you’ll easily find the time to do so. And while you can tend to be modest about showcasing your work, the red planet could push you to go for it and be competitive too.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Restless thoughts can be a result of Mercury’s edgy tie to Uranus, which could mean that you find it hard to settle to your usual routine. Factor in unexpected events, and it may be easier to respond to life as it happens, as planning might not be an option. Do you long to hear from someone close, yet far away? Be proactive Leo, as linking up will leave you both feeling better.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

In the process of applying for something important? If so, then the way you go about it may need some finessing. If you do it in a hurry, then you could give the wrong impression, Virgo. Besides, it might lead to you forgetting certain important details. Slow down and pace yourself, as no matter how excited you feel, it’s very important to give an aura of care and thoroughness.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

You’ll find comfort in talking with others who understand your predicament. A coffee and a chat could restore your spirits in no time. On another note, you might be hoping for a peaceful day, yet a financial matter may need attention. If you feel harried because of a cashflow issue, then a few quiet moments can help you avoid spur-of-the-moment buys that could leave you short.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Someone you meet in an unusual context could become a firm friend, or perhaps this might be the start of a romance. Mercury’s unusual angle with electric Uranus, suggests you’ll have a lot in common when it comes to your ideas and beliefs about life. There may also be a deeper thread running through this bond that you can’t explain, but that seems to draw you together regardless.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

With a focus on your friendship zone, you’ll be eager to enjoy the social scene and make new friends. At the same time, with Mars in a secluded zone, ideas of joining a yoga or meditation group could fire you up, especially if you’re seeking a way to become flexible and feel more at peace with life. Someone you meet might prove to be a force for good, now and in the future.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

A dream or a mood of inspiration could be all it takes to encourage you to go exploring. Your mind may be on ideas and opportunities that enhance your enjoyment of life. Even challenges can be viewed with relish, as you’ll love to pit yourself against any obstacles. Feel like going on a trip? Take someone with you, and you’ll have an even better time, Capricorn.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

You could feel a tad on edge if things don’t happen as you expect them to. And with Mercury linking awkwardly with Uranus, there’s a chance a plan or project may be cancelled. If so, the cosmic backdrop suggests a pause while you get your bearings. A focus on your travel zone hints that exploring fresh options and moving out of your comfort zone could change your outlook.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

The seed of an idea may take root over coming days, and could blossom into a fruitful collaboration or encourage a meaningful friendship. Current energies can leave you impatient for results though, which might mean you’re tempted to rush this. If you allow things to gently proceed and to evolve at their own pace Pisces, the results will be truly outstanding.
