Your daily horoscopes for Thursday October 10, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Goals? Yeah, you’ve always got a stack of them. But today’s balancing quarter moon in Capricorn and your career corner urges you to give them a Q4 review. It’s easy for your trailblazing sign to hit the gas and forget to check the speed limit. That doesn’t seem like a bad thing until you realize you’re under intense pressure with a deadline or have overscheduled your entire workweek. This self-nurturing moon gives you a chance to recalibrate and make necessary course corrections before it’s too late.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Shift out of focus mode and do a clear-eyed scan of your environment. While you’re shedding the protective gear, maybe cast off some of that emotional armor too? If you’ve been playing it a little too safe with your dreams or a relationship, today’s quarter moon in Capricorn and your adventurous ninth house will coax you out of your comfort zone. (And if you don’t come out willingly, it might just yank you!) But this isn’t an invitation to bet the farm on a risky proposition. Just to take a long-overdue sip from the fountain of life. Bottoms up, Bull!
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
You may be feeling uncharacteristically obsessive or competitive thanks to today’s Capricorn quarter moon in your eighth house of intense emotions. Don’t lose sight of the big picture, though. Your fierce determination is great for getting the job done, but if you come on TOO strong, you risk alienating supporters. This balancing lunation can help you find a middle ground. While you want to do your best, it’s okay to slow down a little and deliver those results at a saner pace. Remind yourself that even when you don’t race to the finish line, the cream will always rise to the top.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Who said relationships were easy, Crab? Anything worth having is worth working hard for, as your ambitious sign knows better than most. Today’s Capricorn quarter moon in your partnership zone may inspire you to view a key union through a new lens. Has a loved one’s behavior started to become a problem? It might seem easier to sweep it under the rug, but eventually that pile will trip you up. Confront the issue today—being careful not to come off as judgmental.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Today’s quarter moon in Capricorn and your sixth house of healthy living inspires some fall wellness goals. To stay motivated (or just to get the stability ball rolling), try some new things to keep you from shifting into mindless and ineffective autopilot mode. Check out different studios or classes; pick up unfamiliar foods and then Google recipes you can make with them. Tap a friend to be your workout/clean-eating buddy. That’ll hold you accountable AND make the process way more fun.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Today’s quarter moon in clear-eyed Capricorn and your romantic fifth house can help you strike the right balance between sincerely expressing your feelings and not overwhelming someone with your intensity. The goal is to reach a state of equilibrium in which you and the object of your affection both feel loved and respected. Love shouldn’t be a guessing game (which is entirely different from a little game-playing behind closed doors between consenting adults). Single Virgos, dip a toe in the dating pool. You might be pleasantly surprised by what you stir up!
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Could the Libra nest stand some feathering? Take all the time you need to make your habitat more comfy-cozy, both at home and at work. That’s the order of business under today’s balancing (and domesticating) quarter moon in Capricorn, which is lighting your fourth house of hearth and home. We’re not talking about a full-scale renovation project. Personalize your space with simple, subtle upgrades, like new shelving to display your books and treasures, or buy some leafy plants to add some green to your windows.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Today’s quarter moon in Capricorn lands in your third house of self-expression, encouraging you to hit pause and consider the effect your words are having—or NOT having. Your strategic sign tends to emphasize the practical aspects of a situation when sometimes a better approach is relating to your audience emotionally. Check yourself during the course of the day: Are you talking at people rather than having meaningful dialogue? Make it your mission to “only connect” instead of wasting your breath on superficial chitchat.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Clench your wallet tighter today: A prudent quarter moon in Capricorn lights up your second house, calling for fiscal restraint. You don’t have to sell off family heirlooms or Airbnb your spare bedroom, but it is in your best interests to scale back a bit. A little research can lead you to affordable activities, like “pay what you can” day at the museum or author appearances at local bookstores. This could also inspire you to do more things outdoors, in nature—the greatest “freebie” of ‘em all!

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
Ouch! Have you been giving till it hurts, again, Capricorn? Today’s balancing quarter moon in your sign pulls the plug on that energy-sapping behavior. When you overdo it on the nurturing, you wind up feeling resentful, and, ironically, it can make people appreciate you less. Today, set a goal to empower people without enabling them to become dependent on you. How? By pointing them toward solutions but letting them do the heavy lifting. We know it’s hard to watch loved ones struggle, but this will be good for BOTH of you!

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
When’s the last time you tackled the clutter in your life, Aquarius? Today’s balancing quarter moon in Capricorn and your transitional twelfth house can inspire some “right-sizing.” Not only will this clear out your physical environment but your mental realm as well—and feeling more “spacious” can lead to enhanced creative thinking. But don’t toss things madly and mindlessly. One Water Bearer’s junk can be another sign’s treasure, so think of friends, family and donation centers that might appreciate your gently used stuff.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Thursday October 10
There’s strength in numbers, but one downside of having “too many” friends or acquaintances is that you never seem to have enough time for everyone! And since you’ve been especially focused this fall, some members of your inner circle may be feeling neglected—even accusing you of deliberately ignoring them! You can rectify that under today’s quarter moon in Capricorn and your community sector. Send a message suggesting a spontaneous group hang tonight, but curate carefully. BFFs only!
