The Astrology of Today – All Signs
Horoscope for All on Monday, October 12, 2026
The Moon spends the day in Scorpio, encouraging us to uncover the hidden layers of any given situation.- We're observant, strategic, emotional, and intense. We gravitate to activities that engage our emotions.
- With Mercury aligning with the Moon this afternoon, we bring more feeling, power, and passion to our communication and mental pursuits.
- Ideas and thoughts flow smoothly.
- However, we might face challenges from an overloaded schedule or divided attention between work and personal or family matters.
- We might also have trouble getting the support we want or need and have difficulty asking for it.

The Astrology of Tomorrow – All Signs
Horoscope for All on Tuesday, October 13, 2026
The Sun forms a sesquiquadrate with Uranus today, suggesting we want to make a move, but for now, we may not know where to begin or where to go with our intentions.- While unexpected changes in plans or events can test our patience, they might also bring on new approaches, leading to useful, instructive, or interesting detours.
- The Moon continues its transit of Scorpio until 9:00 PM EDT, when it enters Sagittarius, and we can experience a mood change as it does.
- Under the influence of a Sagittarius Moon, our focus turns outward, and we set our sights high.
- Optimism is one of this position's positive traits, and overlooking the essential details of a plan is a weakness.
- The Moon is void from 4:46 AM EDT, with the Moon's last aspect before changing signs (a square to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 9:00 PM EDT.

With today's Mercury-Saturn aspect, we're inclined to sort, categorize, and create order. We're mentally disciplined.- However, confidence and optimism are also strong today.
- The Sun forms a quintile with Mars and approaches a sextile with Jupiter.
- We're creative about going after what we want in life.
- We can maneuver and plan well, and we're naturally competitive without being antagonistic.
- It can be a time for engaging with others in delightful ways and enjoying opportunities for doing so.
- Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent.
- Some form of recognition or distinction is possible now.
- We can grasp the "big picture," which expands our perspective and makes us feel more vital and confident.
The interpretations above summarize the highlights of the day’s astrology, and can include:
- Moon signs and/or aspects,
- Planetary ingresses (when planets or luminaries change signs),
- Planetary stations (whether the planet turns retrograde or direct after a period of retrograde), and
- Planetary aspects (star transits of the day–for example, if Venus is square Mars).
These daily summaries are for all signs. For example, if Mercury is retrograde, Mercury is retrograde for everyone. The summaries reveal the general tones and themes of a given day, depending on what’s going on in the sky.
However, these astrological events can affect people differently, depending on their birth positions or birth charts. Read your daily horoscopes to see how these influences might affect your Sun sign or Ascendant sign.

You may also enjoy our feature, The Astrology of Now, which reveals the current chart and a list of the all the planetary signs and aspects along with their interpretations. While the summaries on this page summarize the major influences and highlight changes or ingresses, this feature provides more details.
What are planetary ingresses?
Planets and luminaries travel through the zodiac signs, and ingresses are essentially when a planet enters a new sign (which also means it exits the previous sign). For example, the date and time when Mars leaves Aries and enters Taurus is the Mars ingress into Taurus.
What are planetary aspects?
Planets and luminaries connect by aspect, which is defined by the number of degrees in distance between two bodies. This happens in the birth chart, to the birth chart, and in the sky.
For example, a trine aspect occurs between Mercury and Mars when these two planets are 120 degrees apart. We consider a trine to be a harmonious connection, and, in this example, Mercury and Mars energies are combining in pleasant, supportive ways. If this transit occurs today, its interpretation will appear in the daily summary.
