Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Aquarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Stay alert today. For starters, a friend or a group might do something to surprise you. (“Whaaat?”) Meanwhile, transportation delays, missed buses, late appointments and confused communications are also a hassle. (Time to send out for dark chocolate?)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Be patient with parents, bosses and the police today because it’s easy to fly off the handle. (Let’s face it, it’s hard to keep your shirt on when you have to get something off your chest.) This agitation could be related to money delays or cheques that are late in the mail.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Travel disappointments might occur today due to cancellations, changes and delays. (These are always frustrating.) Even school schedules are unpredictable. Meanwhile, you are dealing with old friends from the past as well as goofy errors and misplaced items. Patience!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Stay on top of red-tape details related to banking, mortgages, loans and shared property because something unexpected will impact these areas today. Nobody likes surprises that hits them in their pocketbook. Often with issues like this, it’s wise to heed the old adage: “A stitch in time saves nine.”

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Old friends and contacts with groups from your past are back in your life. Perhaps this is what triggers a few surprises with a partner or close friend at the moment? Could it be that they’re surprised to learn more about your past? Maybe this is someone they never knew even existed. (No surprise here. All Leos have a past.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Expect a few surprises that are work-related today. (Something you didn’t see coming.) Hopefully, it’s not a breakdown of equipment or a computer glitch. Perhaps bosses and authority figures from the past might have something to do with this? For some, this surprise will be health related. Or something to do with a pet?

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Parents should know that this is a mildly accident-prone day for their kids; therefore, keep your eyes open! Meanwhile, social plans might suddenly change because of cancellations or delays. Or perhaps, you will suddenly receive an invitation? Could go either way.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Something will interrupt your home routine today. It could be a minor breakage or problem with a small appliance. Be patient with family members, especially parents, today to avoid arguments. You might be frustrated that news about money from the government or shared property is delayed.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. You don’t want to have any regrets, especially by blurting out something that later makes you wince. This could be prompted because ex-partners are back on the scene. Hmmm?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you might find money or lose money. Zooks! Be smart and protect your possessions against loss, theft or damage. Meanwhile, silly errors continue to plague you at work along with misplaced items and broken equipment. Possibly an old health concern is back. (Is there no mercy?)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today the Moon is in your sign at odds with your ruler Uranus. This makes you impulsive and ready to jump to conclusions. You feel so independent you are inclined to do just the opposite of what anyone tells you to do. Oh yes, this is a high-spirited day!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today you have a strong craving for excitement. Nevertheless, this feeling is sort of smouldering beneath the surface of things. It’s there but it’s not obvious. This emotional unrest makes you want to be free from something. “I’ve gotta be me!”

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Lisa Edelstein (1966) shares your birthday today. You are an excellent conversationalist because you are clever, witty and articulate. You are passionate about whatever you seek. This is an exciting year because it’s a time of change and adaptation. Expect more personal freedom. Have the courage to explore new opportunities leading to new directions and new growth.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 8 AM to 9 AM EDT today (5 AM to 6 AM PDT)). After that, the Moon moves from Capricorn into Aquarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Get ready because the pace of your days will accelerate for the next four weeks. Fear not because it will be a fun busy. Expect a jampacked schedule of short trips, appointments, and increased reading, writing and studying. Busy you!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You will have an increasing desire to gain better control of your life through the things that you own. In the next four weeks, you will look at your possessions and ask do you own them or do they own you?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Once a year the Sun is in your sign for four weeks and that day has arrived. This means you will restore and replenish yourself. Furthermore, you will attract favourable situations and important people to you. Obviously, this is a blessing.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

For the next four weeks, you will be happier taking a backseat or working alone. Your need for privacy and solitude will be stronger. You want this private time to get to know yourself better. Time for dark chocolate.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your involvement with others will increase in the next four weeks because you want to see people. You want to get in touch with friends; in addition to which many of you will be more involved in groups and organizations. It’s just what’s happening. Enjoy this increased popularity!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The Sun will be travelling across the top of your chart for the next four weeks. This symbolizes that you will be thrust in a flattering spotlight! This means that people will admire you even if you don’t do anything different or anything special. Obviously, this is the time to make your pitch and go after what you want!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You will have a stronger than usual desire to travel and expand your world by any means in the next four weeks. Therefore, give yourself a chance to explore! Take a course. Travel if possible. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Learn new things and meet unusual people.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You want to tidy up loose ends in the next four weeks, especially with paperwork and issues related to wills, inheritances, taxes, debt and shared property. Sometimes we try to ignore these things. However, you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and dig in. Bravo!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The Sun will be sitting across from your sign for the next four weeks, which will draw your attention to your closest friends and partners. Not only will this be a strong focus for you, this polarized position of the Sun will give you greater objectivity to see how you relate to others. A valuable learning curve!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You will accomplish a lot in the next four weeks because you will be motivated to work efficiently and effectively so that you get the best results for your efforts. These high standards might translate as well into your health, which means you might be on a health kick as well!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Lucky you! The next four weeks will be playful, lighthearted and fun-loving. Take a vacation if you can. Enjoy fun activities with children. Explore the theatre and the arts. Embrace sports activities, as well as romantic tete-a-tetes. (Be still my beating heart.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Home and family will be your strong focus in the next four weeks. Some of you will be involved with a parent more than usual. This is a good time to do some self-scrutiny and perhaps benefit from counselling.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Timothy Olyiphant (1968) shares your birthday today. You are a warm, loving person who shows strength and solidity. People turn to you for support. Sometimes you are dramatic and in an eccentric way. (This makes you interesting.) This year you will focus on work, building and construction. You might do this externally or introduce internal structure within.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Move forward with confidence when dealing with financial matters today. These could relate to current earnings, or potential future earnings; but ideally, it will be matters that you have already set in motion. Trust your “big” ideas! You’re on a roll!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today the Sun in your sign is dancing with big daddy Pluto, which gives you a powerful energy to look around you and decide what needs to be changed or improved. Do you need to introduce reforms into your daily world? You can make these changes rather easily now.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Today your ruler Mercury is retrograde, and dancing with lucky Jupiter, which means you have lots of optimistic, hopeful energy to finish projects that you have already started. Your hopes and wishes are more important to you today. Write down your plans for the future. Get a bead on where you’re headed.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will find that you will express yourself more forcefully talking to friends and members of groups today. Because you can do this so easily, you will make a strong impression on someone! (If you see the hair blowing back over their ears, take it easy.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

A discussion with a parent or boss will be intense and powerful today. Be careful you don’t cross a line and threaten them in any way because you will be forceful. You want to get things done and you want to move quickly! Nevertheless, remember that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You might want to avoid subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today because these will be buttons that could trigger arguments with others. This is because you are coming on like gangbusters, even if you don’t realize it. Note: Someone else might come on just as strong! This is a recipe for a fight.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You can see how to improve a financial arrangement with someone today. It might be about reducing debt or dealing with taxes and insurance issues. It might be a better arrangement on how to deal with shared property? One thing is certain: You’ll have no trouble making your case.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today you might attract someone to you who is very powerful. (“Hi Darth.”) Nevertheless, you will also be powerful — so express yourself with care and good judgment. This is an excellent day to join forces with someone to investigate something.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today you’re gung-ho to introduce reforms so that you can improve your health. Meanwhile, some of you will use this same energy to introduce reforms to your job or how you do your work. The bottom line is you intend to make things better!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Whether you are in sports or the arts or music, be aware that today is an excellent day to practice something. That’s because you will get way more results for your efforts than you usually would. Practice dance, arpeggios, catching a ball, batting, martial arts – whatever.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You will see ways to introduce improvements to where you live today, especially in areas related to plumbing, bathrooms, garbage and recycling. Meanwhile, in a family discussion, a secret might come out. Or you might suspect that a secret exists.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You are super convincing today when talking to others, which makes this a strong day for those of you in sales, marketing, teaching, acting as well as writing. Personally, you might want to determine what motivates you? What changes do you need to make?

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Polly Walker (1966) shares your birthday today. You have a calm, detached even regal style. This can make you convincing when talking to others. Personally, you are focused and determined.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions until 8:15 AM EDT today (until 5:15 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are confident in your views today, especially when talking to parents, bosses and people in authority. You’re interested in big ideas – not little details. You might be surprised if someone challenges what you have to say. (Relax, everyone’s opinionated today.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you are fascinated with profound discussions about philosophy, religion and other intellectual ideas or life belief systems. You will discuss some ideas that you have, and you’ll be interested in hearing what other people have to say.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Because you feel generous and benevolent towards others today, you might do fundraising or think of ways to get help from a third party, or perhaps a friend or partner so that you can help someone in need. Perhaps you will encourage someone to be generous? Or set the example?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Enjoy intellectual banter with partners and close friends today. You have some definite ideas about something, and you’re interested to hear what others have to say. You will especially watch their reactions when you share your ideas. (You love an adoring peanut gallery.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Relations with coworkers will be warm and friendly today. In part, this is because you feel generous to those around you, which means people will likely respond to you in kind. You want to help others and encourage them in whatever they do. (Leos are inspirational leaders.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a lovely day to schmooze and enjoy the company of friends! Take a long lunch. In fact, play hooky if you can. You’ll enjoy the arts and any kind of entertaining diversion, including the theatre. Sports events will also appeal because fun activities are at the top of your list today.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Enjoy relaxing at home in a luxurious way today. Grab good food and drink so that you can indulge yourself with some guilty pleasures. (Ben and Jerry’s?) Take an afternoon nap. Enjoy entertaining someone. Shop for something pretty for where you live. Make today feel special.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions with others will be upbeat and interesting because you’re in a positive frame of mind today. You want to share your ideas and in particular, you want to discuss profound matters – something heady and meaningful. Enjoy learning something that expands your world.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pay attention to your moneymaking ideas today because they might be worth consideration. Having said that, if you’re shopping, you’ll be tempted to be extravagant and perhaps go overboard. With this in mind, keep your receipts – and the box. (Happiness is having alternatives.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with lucky Jupiter, which makes you feel warm hearted to everyone. You will also be interested in “big” ideas and philosophies because you want to expand your mind and learn new things. You have Eagle mind today, not mouse mind.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You will be happy to cocoon somewhere comfortable and read a book or explore new ideas or do something to expand your world but in a private, quiet way. One thing is certain, you have a strong appreciation for your daily surroundings. You’re happy to be in your skin.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Discussions with friends and groups will be happy and warm-hearted today. Someone might encourage you in a discussion about your future goals. If so, they will urge you to think big and expect more for yourself. Richard Bach said, “Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they’re yours.”

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Chow Yun-Fat (1955) shares your birthday today. You are warm hearted person who is helpful to others and often takes care of people. You are hard-working and focused. Many of you are multitalented. This year will be a gentler, slower paced year. Your focus will be on relationships and your own needs, especially determining what makes you happy.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today until 9 PM PDT. The Moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today you might feel vaguely discouraged or irritable. (It’s that kind of feeling that’s hard to pin down.) What’s happening is your ruler Mars is lined up with fuzzy Neptune, which makes you feel like your feet are stuck in mud. Little errors might be infuriating. Lighten up.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You might feel discouraged or confused about the direction that you should take with a friend, or perhaps with a group with which you are involved. You had high hopes and expectations – but now things seem fuzzy and your plans are unclear. (Wait for clarity and direction before you act.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Whereas before, you were gung-ho about setting off in a new direction, now you feel unprepared. Be wise. Pause for a moment and regroup. Don’t press blindly forward, hoping for the best. It’s important to take the time to regain your focus and confidence before you act or commit to anything.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Don’t fall for false rumours, false news and false propaganda, which will proliferate today. With Mercury retrograde taking place in your 12th House, you can research your own truth about things. Don’t believe everything you hear especially in social media. Be smart. Research the facts for yourself. Then you know.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might feel discouraged today about something relating to shared property, taxes and debt. Perhaps you are disappointed in your share of something? You might also be disappointed because someone told you something that actually is not true. Oh yes, deceit is possible today! Wait to get your facts straight.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Someone close to you might disappoint you today. (This happens in all friendships and partnerships.) One frequent reason this happens is because of unexpressed expectations. Did someone else know what you wanted? After all, they can’t read your mind. Have the courage to speak up about what you want.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Something related to your job or perhaps your health might be worrisome to you today. Ironically, in the very area where you were feeling upbeat and successful, now you have doubts. (Like, what’s with that?) If you’re unsure of things, do nothing. Wait.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a tough day for romance because things are not only confusing and disappointing, there might also be an aspect of deceit lurking. You’re not sure if someone is telling you the truth. Either way, you feel let down. For some, sports might be why your hopes are dashed.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a poor time for an important family discussion because clarity and consensus will be difficult. In fact, things are mushy and confusing. Redecorating projects or renovations are stalled in the water. Be patient while things sort themselves out. Do nothing.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you question your right to speak up, which is why you might remain silent. It’s ironic because recently, you were confident and ready to tell it like it is. Don’t worry, this simply means you need to get your facts straight. Wait for the truth before pressing forward.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a poor time to make important financial decisions because you don’t have all the facts. Furthermore, the facts you do have might be wrong. Someone might be deceiving you. Yes, this is a tricky time, which means protect your money; protect your belongings.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today your energy level might be low, which is why you should not push yourself too hard. It will be easy to physically exhaust yourself so be careful. Guard against infections and food poisoning. Don’t start anything new.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor, comedian Bob Saget (1956-2022) shares your birthday today. You are a modest person. You are determined, hard-working and independent. Your friendly, appealing quality attracts others to you. This year is the first year of a fresh new nine-year cycle for you. Be courageous. Be ready to open any door!

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping and important decisions from 5 AM to 8 AM EDT today (2 AM to 5 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

So relieved that light at the end of the tunnel wasn’t a train! Now that the Full Moon has peaked, you see solutions to financial matters, debt, taxes and perhaps something to do with your possessions. Definitely, things are looking better. Whew!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Last night the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year came to a peak. This means that today, you feel more encouraged, more relaxed and more hopeful about things. In fact, money from the government or the wealth of a partner might look sweet!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Things have been restless with this particular Full Moon. However, as of last night, the Full Moon has peaked, which means everything is starting to settle down. Nevertheless, Mercury is retrograde in your sign, and this triggers goofy mistakes and attracts people from your past back into your world.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Tension with friends and groups will relax now because the Full Moon peaked last night. Be open to solutions and any offer of an olive branch. Meanwhile, work-related travel might be likely today. Your job and your health feel positive and full of promise!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
