Your daily horoscopes for Friday August 29, 2025
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Even your can-do sign has moments of frustration and inner struggle, and it’s okay to admit that, Aries. In fact, when you ignore these feelings or keep them bottled up inside, they only get stronger and sap more of your inner reserves. Today, under a healing trine between the moon in your house of intense emotions and wise Jupiter, share some of this with a close friend or sibling. Not ready to talk about it? Find a book or support group that deals with this issue. Every small step brings you closer to a resolution.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
You don’t have to walk on eggshells today—not with your closest peeps, anyway. While your tender sign would never intentionally do anything to hurt anyone, when you hold back, you sometimes block yourself from going deeper. A heart-opening trine between the emo moon in your partnership realm and forthright Jupiter in your social sector makes it easier to say what you’re really feeling. You don’t have to spill your guts, but once you open the door, conversations might get more intimate all by themselves.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Take a moment this morning to ground yourself and get clarity around how to best organize your day. You’ve got a mile-long punch list, but going at it scattershot can lead to things getting half-done—or not done to your standards! Stop and think about your personal reasons for doing some of these tasks. It’s not just about going through the motions; real good can come from these. Under today’s high-minded moon-Jupiter trine, connect to your purpose, and you might have a whole different experience!
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Today’s a great day to follow up on those style-makeover ideas you’ve been kicking around. Jupiter’s been in your sign for over two months, slowly but surely increasing up your willingness to vamp (under the right conditions)! Today, the gentle giant forms a supportive trine with the intuitive Scorpio moon in your flamboyant fifth house. You don’t have to go full-on red carpet, but a few glam touches to your hair and wardrobe can make you feel more powerful. Don’t overthink it, just follow your instincts. That’s always the best plan for your telekinetic sign.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
You’re often the first one to forgive and forget (or at least forgive and move on), but something that a friend or relative said may be sticking in your brain. You’d like to get past this, but if they’re unremorseful, you’re uncharacteristically unwilling to extend an olive branch. Or are you? Today, big-hearted Jupiter is in your compassion zone AND linked up with the sensitive moon. If you truly want to move on, suck it up and reach out, letting them know you miss them. Then, wait for their reaction and react accordingly.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
You’re not usually the one to drone on in a meeting, Virgo, but today you have a lot to say! Gather your thoughts on the way in to work, making bullet-pointed notes if you find that helpful. But under an empowering trine between the moon in your communication corner and spontaneous Jupiter, words will flow effortlessly and pitch-perfectly. Focus on being inspiring rather than critical, and don’t be surprised if enthusiastic potential collaborators swarm you afterward to discuss ways you might work together.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
All work and no play… sounds just about right today, doesn’t it, Libra? When you tune in to the vibes of the day, you may discover that you’ve got energy to burn. And the cosmos are flashing all green lights, thanks to invigorating trine between boundless Jupiter in your career corner and the moon in your money zone. Close your door and log off your socials, then, shift into high gear. You can get hit a major deadline and still have enough energy to meet friends for drinks or a show tonight.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Your favorite experiences today will be anything new, different or unfamiliar. Infinitely curious Jupiter is in your visionary ninth house and sweetly synced up with the moon in your sign. The world’s your oyster, so dive into life fearlessly. The call of the open road might be too loud to resist, so pack a weekender bag, grab a friend or S.O. and go exploring. You might want to make reservations before you leave (um, Labor Day travel). Regardless, this is definitely a “journey is more important than the destination” kind of adventure!
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Nobody wings it better than you, Sagittarius, and today’s stars will put wind in your spontaneity sails. The Scorpio moon is in creative cahoots with your ruler, unstructured Jupiter, and that’s not all! Both planets are in intuitive houses insisting that you make time to follow your muse—or just your whims. Inspiration can strike at any moment, so have a way to record or sketch out the vision. Tonight, buddy up with your favorite plus-one, and be prepared for a little tug of the old heartstrings.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Keep an open mind about everything today, Capricorn! Your normally prudent approach to life is MIA, and you’re curious about things that don’t usually catch your eye. This could be anything from a budding community garden to a smoldering stranger at your go-to cafe. (Hmmm, how have you missed THAT?) With the moon hooked up to auspicious Jupiter in your people houses, you’re encouraged to break the ice. You don’t have recite Shakespeare. A simple “Hey, how’s it going?” would work just as well.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Everyone else might be clocking out mentally for the weekend, but bring your A-game, Aquarius. An opportunity could be within reach, but you might still need to prove to someone that you’re the perfect person for this assignment. The moon in your professional quarters is synced up with lucky and expansive Jupiter in your industrious sixth house. Not only should you NOT cut corners but you should go the extra mile to show the powers that be what you’re capable of. Unleash your inimitable blend of intellect and innovation, and you’re sure to wow them.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Friday August 29
Need to get everyone on-board with a project or new procedure? Here’s what NOT to do: Send an impersonal email or bark out orders. People will respond way better to intimate and caring communication—and no one is better at that than you, Pisces! (When you’re not feeling stressed out of your mind, that is.) Take a moment to center yourself, connect with your breath, and remind yourself of WHY you want to get this message out. Then, speak from the heart and share the higher vision with everyone.
