Why you could be feeling so on edge right now and who is most affected
If you've been feeling more on edge than usual lately, read on, as we might have an explanation.
Recent celestial events have had a profound effect on our moods - and three star signs are particularly affected.
It's hard not to pay attention to the stars when they always do seem to have such an impact on our feelings and state of mind.
While it may be easy for some to brush it off as hippy nonsense, people have been worshipping the Moon for years - and we're no different.

And now, the recent lunar eclipse (18 September) wrought havoc upon many of us, so it's likely you're feeling the hangover - and are likely to still be affected.
Speaking exclusively to Tyla on behalf of FruitySlots, celebrity astrologer Inbaal Honigman revealed all.
What is a lunar eclipse?
Inbaal explains: "A partial lunar eclipse always takes place during a Full Moon - and Full Moons have been known to cause trouble when it comes to getting to sleep.
"It may be as simple as the effect of the increased light from the Full Moon, which results in many people having a harder time falling asleep, and indeed staying asleep for less time than on other nights.
“The time of the lunar eclipse is seen as a time of secrets coming to light, and mysteries uncovered. It is a time of heightened intuition, and increased psychic perception.
"For this reason, it's a good idea to try and recall our dreams from the night of the eclipse, and even write them down."
She continues: “Those dreams may hold symbols and clues which pertain to our present and future.
"Journal your thoughts and ideas right after the eclipse as well, to see if any revelations or patterns emerge.
“If your sleep wasn't as long as usual, you'll no doubt be a little grumpier during the day. And if your dreams were wild, you may find that you're a little dazed and confused throughout the day.
"Even if you're absolutely fine - be patient with your colleagues and relatives who may themselves be feeling mixed up."
Without further ado, here are the three signs who will be feeling the most affected.
Pisces
Inbaal explains: “Since this Full Moon occurs in Pisces, those born under the sign of the fish will be affected.
"During an eclipse, the intuitive mind comes to the fore, so a Piscean’s natural psychic ability will give them a head start in all matters.
"In career, Pisceans will be able to predict trends ahead of time, and in love, they’ll know if their partner is being honest or not. Pisces have a strong sixth sense anyway, and the eclipse in their sign will enhance that.”
Virgo
Inbaal states: “A lunar eclipse is always at the time of the Full Moon, which happens when the Sun and Moon are exactly opposite each other in the sky, meaning they're in opposite astrological signs.
"This Full Moon in Pisces occurs during Virgo season, when the Sun is in Virgo.
"Those born under the sign of the Virgin are sticklers for truths and accuracies - and the lunar eclipse is a time of truths coming to light.
"Virgos will love being able to separate the liars from the truth tellers, so they know who they can trust in the future.”
Cancer
“The sign of Cancer is ruled by the Moon - therefore lunar eclipses feel more impactful to them. Those born under the sign of the Crab are sensitive and intuitive, and the Full Moon enhances that sensitivity," Inbaal says.
"At the same time of the Eclipse, the planet Mars is also in the sign of Cancer.
"This means that Cancerians will be attracting some interesting characters at that time, since Mars is the planet of passion and battle.
"It also means that the Moon and Mars are close together in the heavens, so the Moon’s intuition will interact with Mars’s short fuse. The normally tolerant Cancer will not be suffering fools during this Moon phase.”
