General Daily Insight for September 23, 2025
We — as well as the planets — are all over the place. Mars is making an unusual quincunx to mystical Neptune, causing our energy levels to ebb and flow in unpredictable waves. Meanwhile, the Sun will make its annual opposition to Neptune at 8:53 am EDT, further complicating the process of figuring out what we’re doing in this moment, let alone how to direct our lifelong passions. Fortunately, the Sun will then trine eclectic Uranus, revealing unexpected yet ingenious ways to make forward progress.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Things might be clear as mud at present — which is to say, not clear at all. Your closest connections are particularly muddled as the Sun in your 7th House of Contacts forms its annual opposition to mystical Neptune. Think carefully before starting any important conversations or attempting to make major progress with someone by your side, since the facts will be obscured and you could miss important details. If someone else drops the ball, avoid playing the blame game. It won’t be helpful.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
There’s low visibility today. You’re braced to roll up your sleeves and make the most of the day while the Sun is in your 6th House of Everyday Systems. Watch out! Such productive urges could get put on ice when the Sun opposes mystical Neptune in your 12th House of Escapism. You could be missing an important part of the puzzle, lacking multiple pieces of the information you need to make an informed decision. This is not the moment to embark on spontaneous projects.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Following your heart is not a simple act. You’ve got the galactic go-ahead to chase your bliss while the Sun tours your passionate 5th house, but ouch! The Sun’s hit to Neptune in your group-focused 11th house is going to prioritize the opinions of others over your own. An additional problem could arise with a lack of clarity from everyone, including yourself, so you might feel like you’re spinning in circles. Avoid issues by waiting for clearer skies before attempting to make up your mind.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Your ambitions potentially aren’t too strong at this moment. You’re probably more concerned with taking your time and focusing on domestic matters while the Sun is in your 4th House of Foundations. That said, the Sun is making its yearly opposition to Neptune in your 10th House of Career, which could incite abnormal confusion around what you ultimately want to achieve. Don’t attempt to push yourself, because the road ahead isn’t very clear — you could wind up in the wrong territory altogether.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Your horizons look a little foggy. You’ve got no problem staying occupied as the Sun tumbles through your chaotic 3rd house, but you may wander off course into no man’s land when it opposes Neptune in your boundless 9th house. What looks like a path forward could lead you into strange places where your thoughts aren’t quite as concrete as you would prefer. Get comfortable with this sense of the unknown, or else make a point of sticking to what you know.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Don’t bet on something that merely resembles a good idea. You’re looking for a sure thing and a guaranteed positive outcome while the Sun is in your realistic 2nd house, but the solar opposition to Neptune in your invested 8th house will make it difficult to establish what options are good and what options only look promising on the surface. If someone presents you with an appealing proposition, avoid signing on the dotted line until the planets are in clearer, more assured places.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
Expectations are currently resentments waiting to happen. You’d do well to avoid asking much of anyone or relying on them too heavily as the Sun in your sign opposes mysterious Neptune in your partnership sector. Recognizing who has your back versus who is just passing by will be tough. Even the most reliable of peers might drop the ball under this complicated alignment, so the only person you should really look to at this time for any kind of certainty is yourself.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Reality is for the birds. You’re flying through parts unknown while the Sun is in your transcendent 12th house, though you might feel you need to land somewhere stable once the Sun pokes Neptune in your responsible 6th house. Unfortunately, Neptune loves to fog things up wherever it goes, so it might be nigh impossible to settle down and get to work. Don’t attempt to accomplish things if you don’t even know what they are! Feeling productive and being productive aren’t necessarily the same.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
You may experience something of an identity crisis today. The Sun in your community-oriented 11th house extends the fun of taking part in team efforts, right up until its debate with Neptune in your expressive 5th house. This combination could leave you feeling like you don’t know what you want or what makes you special. Sometimes, the “not knowing” is the best catalyst for figuring out the answers. Just don’t expect solutions immediately — this phase is meant for asking questions, not getting specific answers.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
You know where you’re going, but maybe not where you’ve been. Your 10th House of Drive is lit up as the Sun moves through on its annual tour, but the Sun is currently arguing with mysterious Neptune in your 4th House of Fundamentals. Questions about your own feelings or support systems may cause you to waver and wander. Before panicking and struggling to get a broad view of everything, focus on taking small steps forward. The past should become clearer in the future.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Getting lost could happen without warning at the moment. You may want to fly far and wide while the Sun is in your 9th House of Amplification, but the Sun also locks into a conflicting opposition with foggy Neptune in your 3rd House of Localities. This makes it difficult to see the path forward! Certain shortcuts may look promising, but they could prove more complicated than they’re worth, so stick to the path you know for now. You can explore unknown territory tomorrow.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
Your resources could seem nebulous today. A tough opposition between the Sun in your 8th House of Shared Resources and illusory Neptune in your 2nd House of Material Wealth could make it almost inconceivable to grasp how much you actually have to work with. Someone may press you to pay for something or cover a debt, and it could prove more than you’re able to cope with in the moment. Take a deep breath — it’s likely a simple misunderstanding. Don’t panic unnecessarily.
