Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday 05 August 2026
Aries    Aries   Mar 21 - Apr 19
The last thing the Moon will do before leaving Aries today is align with the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos here, but also form a friendly aspect to the South Node, the force that will turn next week’s New Moon into a total solar eclipse. With Eris in retrograde motion but a New Moon, whether an eclipse or not is all about the future, this is a window into both new opportunities and second chances. While there is a heavy lean towards the playful and creative side of life’s fence, in the heart of the working week, just as things are also evolving professionally.
 
Taurus    Taurus   Apr 20 - May 20
Over four months after returning for what is normally a three month transit through your career sector the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment is just seven days away from retrograding back out.
