In this Dec. 9 daily horoscope, Bustle's resident astrologer Mecca Woods, founder of My Life Created, shares the astrological events happening today that will affect every zodiac sign. Below, here's a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

The moon remains stationed in balance-seeking Libra, emphasizing the need for an even-keeled approach to the day. However, with the confident sun in enthusiastic and truth-seeking Sagittarius facing off with confusing and dreamy Neptune in Pisces today, it could be hard to find our footing. That's because this Sun-Neptune combo can make it hard to move forward or express ourselves with confidence. As often happens when Neptune is in the mix, we could find ourselves feeling more anxious, discouraged, or sensitive than usual, making it hard to get anything done.

If we do find ourselves feeling off-kilter, the Libra moon will be on hand, encouraging us to remain objective and think things through, rather than assuming or focusing on the worst. Come the late afternoon, when the moon teams up with optimistic Mercury in Sagittarius, we're encouraged to look for the silver lining and surround ourselves with people that encourage and uplift us.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your zodiac sign today, and make sure to check out your December 2020 monthly horoscope.
