Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Don’t be an easy target for manipulators today, Aries. The vulnerable moon gets into a spat with agitator Mars, and you might feel like a friend or coworker is taking advantage of your kindness. Be on guard against anyone who tries to pull your strings so you’ll do their bidding. Even if you’re tempted to take pity on them and do a quick favor, you may be playing right into their hands. Now is as good a time as any to draw a line in the sand.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Money could get funny with Team Toro under today’s tense square between the sensitive moon and impulsive Mars. Think twice about pooling funds with people you don’t know well enough to trust with your hard-earned cash. Before you sit down for a group meal, ask about separate checks, especially if you’re not planning on ordering drinks or appetizers. Sure, it might seem like bean-counting, but that’s better than stewing in anger as you feel pressured to pay for other people’s indulgences.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
You may not know which end is up today when the moon in your sign squares off with Mars in your ambitious tenth house. Even if you think you’re seeing the path ahead as clear as day, this confusing starmap could cause you to rethink the direction you’re headed in. Don’t do anything rashly reactionary like quitting your job. If you’re overloaded, try streamlining your schedule to buy yourself time to reflect. This is not the day to make a big decision that you can’t undo.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Thanks to an overwhelming square between extremist Mars and your ruler, the moon, you won’t have the bandwidth to deal with everything that’s flying at you. A crush of texts, Slack messages, emails and other distractions can interrupt your flow and send you spiraling. Mute the thread with your gossipy coworker or family member with limited coping skills. They might drag you into their self-made dramas without noticing that you’re busy or asking how you are. The best way to protect yourself today is to bypass the risk altogether.

Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Are you being ghosted, or is the person who’s “ignoring” you legitimately busy? It’s hard to say for sure, but with the moon in a testy square with impatient Mars, you could reflexively shift into combat mode. Provoking a fight might get you attention, but that short-term satisfaction comes at a steep price. Or perhaps you’re the one sending out mixed signals and keeping others guessing. The mystery and friction can be sexy in a romantic attraction, but only to a point. If you’re attached, closeness is cathartic under these stormy skies, so book private time together.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Under today’s bewildering moon-Mars square, you might be tempted to confront someone in hopes of hashing out where your relationship is headed. If you’re not on the same page with your significant other or a colleague, that’s a valid concern. But your best strategy is to process your own emotions first—by journaling about them or talking them through with a wise friend. Save the Big Talk for another time, when the planets are calmer and you understand your own POV better.

Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Warning: You could fall for potential misinformation hook, line and sinker today. A battle between the susceptible moon and rash Mars can skew your normally discerning judgment. You don’t want to feel like a sucker or mislead other people by spreading lies. Maintain a healthy amount of skepticism and conduct your due diligence. Be responsible about passing along hearsay, however innocently. Couch your words carefully, sprinkling in qualifying phrases like “I’m not 100 percent positive about this” or “You should fact-check it for yourself.”

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
This could stack up to a real roller coaster of a day if you don’t stop and tend to your mood. A difficult square between the moon and intense Mars will challenge your ability to stay on an even keel. So don’t even try—at least not by yourself. Draw on all the resources at your disposal to get the support you need instead of staying in “rise and grind” mode. You MIGHT be able to muscle through this with your sheer force of will, but your emotional state will be so much better if you turn to your team.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Guilt doesn’t serve anyone, Sagittarius. With the sensitive moon battling hotheaded Mars, someone you care about could say something that triggers your insecurities and gets you working overtime to win their approval. There’s no need to go on the offensive—or to get defensive. Just notice if you start shifting into a rescuer role or people-pleasing. And if you’re the one who needs something from another person, manipulation is not the way to go. Be honest and straightforward.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Control freak alert! Today’s exasperating square between the moody moon in and high-octane Mars can draw out your micromanaging side. But what’s really bugging you? It could be that you just need to release some stress. Freaking out over little things is never a great use of your energy. That’s not to say you’re making a mountain out of a molehill. Maybe a coworker has been slacking, or you’ve noticed that someone seems out of sorts lately. Instead of making assumptions, keep your cool, watch and wait. The right answer will reveal itself.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
Time to triple-check those numbers, Aquarius. Today’s disorienting moon-Mars square puts pressure on your bottom line. If you’ve been splurging too much lately in the name of fun or you’ve pinched pennies and deprived yourself of life’s pleasures, do yourself a favor and take a cold hard look at your budget. This might feel like a giant buzzkill, but knowledge is power. You need to know the reality of what you’re dealing with so you can decide how to proceed with discernment.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Tuesday July 23
As the touchy moon in Pisces squares hotheaded Mars, you could be bristling with animosity. If trouble is brewing beneath the surface, don’t pretend all is well, but don’t rush to conclusions either. If you simply crossed wires with someone, give them an opportunity to explain where they’re coming from. Then explain YOUR position more clearly than you did before. Give each other the benefit of the doubt so you can get on the same page.
