The Astrology of Tomorrow – All Signs

Horoscope for All on Friday, July 17, 2026

The Moon spends the day in Virgo, and we gravitate to practical activities and helping others.
We take a greater interest in the details of our lives at this time of the lunar month.
As well, with Venus forming a biquintile with Saturn today, we’re inclined to maneuver and plan tastefully.
We may be showcasing our reliability and loyalty.
We head toward a Uranus-Pluto trine, the first of five in a set that will extend until May 2028.
With this meaningful transit with long-term influence, we more readily tap into our deeper ambitions and motivations, and this knowledge of and connection with our inner selves can lead to terrific new directions.
We recognize the need for change and reform, but also realize that having a solid plan of action is to our great benefit. As such, it can be a time of measured, deliberate change-making.
It’s a fine time for forging new alliances and friendships.
We might awaken to hidden or dormant talents, including inventiveness, or recognize a stronger desire for independence and freedom.
The desire for new experiences is compelling.
On another level, it can be a time to use our power and spread our resources more fairly.
It can be a time of important, meaningful social shifts as we recognize inequities and course-correct.
We’re not only unafraid to address touchy, complex, or taboo issues we once glossed over or ignored, but we also find creative solutions.
We no longer unquestioningly accept the status quo, and we no longer tolerate burying our heads in the sand to keep the peace.
Still, we should watch for overconfidence as we unearth dark or hidden matter more quickly than we can process it.
It’s a potentially powerful time for reform, growth, and change, particularly regarding the sharing of power and resources, individuality, and humanitarian, philosophical, or religious beliefs and practices.

Prepare for the day after tomorrow:

The Astrology of the Day After Tomorrow – All Signs

Horoscope for All on Saturday, July 18, 2026

The Moon spends the day in detail-oriented Virgo.
This Moon puts communication, organization, and production at the forefront. Taking care of business is a developing theme now.
What we do and feel are in harmony, and we benefit from this clarity. A cozy, friendly, and comfortable feeling of security is a theme.
However, the Sun is parallel to Uranus today, and we're drawn to experience extraordinary things or make a change.
It's a time to make room for spontaneity as we seek new or unique ways to express ourselves.
The Moon is void today from 6:14 PM EDT, with the Moon's last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to the Sun), until the Moon enters Libra the next day, Sunday, July 19th, at 12:57 AM EDT.

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.
