Bustle’s resident astrologer Mecca Woods, founder of My Life Created, shares every zodiac sign’s daily horoscope for today, August 8, 2022.

The moon is stationed in happy-go-lucky Sagittarius for the first half of the day, giving us respite from the recent astrological turbulence. Whenever the moon’s in this optimistic and fun-loving sign, the day’s energy is usually upbeat and positive. Plus, with the sun in warmhearted Leo — and teaming up with wounded Chiron in Aries later today — we’re encouraged to partake in activities that feel joyful and affirming.

With that being said, the morning does start off with a snag: The Sagittarius moon hosts an uncomfortable meeting with foggy Neptune in Pisces, a planetary pairing that can translate into anxious or melancholic feelings, as well as decreased motivation. The best way to navigate this Moon-Neptune aspect is to get extra sleep or take time to regroup. Creative outlets like music or film could help boost your mood, too.

Toward mid-afternoon, the moon leaves Sagittarius and enters down-to-earth Capricorn. This will be a good time for tending to work and responsibilities, and also for engaging in stress-relieving activities or practices that promote a calm, grounded energy.
