Questions

How are these daily horoscopes written?

Each one is written every day at 00:30 UTC from the actual planetary positions for the period: which planets are moving through which signs, and how they angle to each sign. The positions are computed, and an AI model (Anthropic's Claude) turns them into prose for each sun sign. Nothing is recycled from earlier periods.

What sign is the Moon in today?

The Moon is in Leo until Nov 3, 08:27 UTC, then enters Virgo. The Moon is waning crescent, 45% lit.

Is any planet retrograde today?

Mercury, Venus and Saturn are retrograde right now.

Should I read my sun sign or my rising sign?

Start with your sun sign; that is how these are written. If you know your rising sign, read that one too: it maps the same planets onto the areas of your life, and many astrologers find it the more specific of the two. The personal horoscope goes further and reads the period against your whole birth chart.
