A new Moon among friends: quiet hopes, honest company
With a new Moon in Scorpio lighting your house of friends, groups and hopes, today tends to favour small, sincere beginnings with the people you trust most.
The Moon is new in Scorpio in your eleventh solar house, the part of your chart given to friends, groups and the hopes you carry for the future. A new Moon is a seed rather than a harvest, so this is less a day for announcements and more for quietly naming what you would like the coming weeks to grow into. Mercury shares this house, which may make one honest message to a friend, or a short exchange in a group chat, feel more meaningful than usual. Venus is here too but retrograde, so an old friendship or a hope you set aside may drift back into your thoughts; it may be worth listening to what it asks of you rather than rushing to act.
The Sun in Libra sits at the top of your solar chart, in career and reputation, so people at work tend to notice how fairly and calmly you handle things. Mars and Jupiter in Leo occupy your house of shared matters and trust, which may draw you towards conversations where openness matters more than being right.
Your ruler, Saturn, is retrograde in Aries in your fourth house of home and family, with Neptune retrograde alongside it. This suggests a slow, inward review of what home means to you, perhaps a tidy drawer, a long phone call with a parent, or simply an evening in. Uranus retrograde in your house of daily routines invites you to revisit a habit that no longer fits, gently and without upheaval.
A friend worth calling
With Mercury and the new Moon in your house of friends, one sincere conversation may count for more than a crowded diary. Venus retrograde suggests reconnecting rather than chasing someone new.
Steady at the top
The Sun in your career house favours fair, measured work. A good day to set one clear intention for a group project or shared goal, then let it settle.
An evening at home
Saturn and Neptune retrograde in your home house invite rest close to familiar things: a simple meal, an early night, a little quiet order around you.
Write down one hope you would like to share with a friend, and let it be the start of something small.
Makara (Capricorn) today
Makara: a steady day for work, with patience at home
With the Moon in your tenth house and Chandra bala strong, today tends to favour your work and the quiet wishes you have been carrying.
For you, Makara, the Moon spends the whole of this Monday in Libra, your tenth house of work and standing, and its strength is good. The classical result is warm: wishes fulfilled and success in work. Mercury sits there too, promising all-round happiness, so this is a good day to send the message you have been drafting, speak up in a meeting or finish a task that shows your care. Monday belongs to the Moon, the day's lord, and the tithi is Śukla Dvitīyā, the second day of the waxing Moon. It has the feel of a small beginning that grows quietly.
There is one note of caution in the same house. Venus, retrograde in your tenth, warns of quarrels, so keep the peace with colleagues even when a point seems worth winning. At home, Mars in your seventh house of partnership may stir friction with a partner, and patience matters more than being right. Jupiter shares that seventh house and softens it, bringing happiness with partner and family and the promise of a good journey. A shared meal or an evening walk together may say more than a long talk.
In the background, Saturn moves retrograde through your third house of courage and initiative, and here it is favourable, pointing to a better position and more authority earned over time. The Sun in your ninth suggests some efforts may not land yet and loved ones can feel a little distant, so be gentle with yourself. Rahu in your second asks for care with words and with spending.
Gentle words at home
Jupiter and Mars share your house of partnership, so warmth and friction sit side by side. Listen first, answer softly and let a small kindness settle any tension.
Your moment to be seen
With the Moon and Mercury in your tenth, work tends to go well today. Present your ideas plainly, and let Venus retrograde remind you to stay courteous when opinions differ.
A quiet Monday evening
The Sun may leave your spirits a little low, so make time for rest. An early night, a calm meal or a short walk can help you feel steady again.
Do your work with care, keep your words kind at home, and let today's small beginnings grow at their own pace.
