Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today your idealism is aroused, which is why you might respond to something going on in another country. You feel sympathetic, especially to those who are less fortunate. You also feel caring and sympathetic to people in your everyday world.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
As the financial wizard of the zodiac, today you might try fundraising or encourage anyone with money and resources to be charitable to those in need. In strong contrast, you might also spend money today on some deliciously extravagant luxury.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Relations with partners, spouses and close friends will be warm and sensitive today. You might be concerned about the needs of a group or a friend. Some of you will explore involvement in a charitable organization because you feel concerned about their challenges.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Some of you are involved in a secret love affair or a quiet flirtation today. You might feel sympathetic to a co-worker and want to help them in some way. Or maybe you want sympathy and understanding from someone? People are willing to reach out.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Because this is a playful, romantic day, many of you will be involved in discussions with someone “different” or from a different country or another culture. Social outings, time with children and the arts will also appeal. Discussions will be thoughtful.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You make an excellent impression on parents, bosses and VIPs right now. Conversely, some of you might develop a crush on a boss or someone in power. Meanwhile, you might also feel sensitive to the needs of a family member and want to help them if you can.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You are a sign who appreciates beauty. Today is a wonderful day for artists and anyone involved in creative fields because your imagination is heightened. You might also want to counsel a friend. Meanwhile, travel for pleasure will totally appeal!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
If shopping today, you might want to keep your receipts (and the box) because you will be susceptible to spending money on elegant items or luxurious toys. Due to the generosity of someone else, you might feel you can easily do this. Perhaps it’s a romantic gift?
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today the moon is in your sign dancing with dreamy Neptune, which will encourage you to daydream. This is why you might not accomplish a lot today. However, because your imagination will be stimulated, you can explore any kind of artistic work or creative endeavor. You also feel sympathetic.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
A work-related romance might be percolating in the background for many of you. Or maybe you feel sympathetic to a co-worker? Remember to get more sleep or take naps because your energy is lagging somewhat at this time. Be kind to yourself. This is the only body you get.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Friendships are important to you, and today you might feel particularly sympathetic or tenderhearted toward a friend. Or you might join a charitable group. Others will feel swept away by sensitive romance. “It was written in the stars!”
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This is a playful, romantic day for you. However, you will also feel sympathetic and caring for a family member. Keep in mind that you are high-viz, which means people notice you. Furthermore, with Mars opposite your sign, you will need to be patient with others. (You can do this.)
