Moon alert
Avoid shopping or important decisions from 2:30 to 8:30 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Virgo into Libra.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
This is a curious day because there are two very different influences at play for you. On one hand, relations with co-workers and people related to your health care or even your pet might be difficult. Everyone is cool or standoffish. Nevertheless, you’re keen to work and be productive! (Go figure.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Romantic relationships and relations with your kids might be strained today. Therefore, don’t make a big deal about anything. Keep things cool. However, your physical energy is pumped, which bodes well for physical athletics and competitive sports. You’ve got this!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Although you have energy to make improvements at home today, this is a poor day to ask for permission or approval from authority figures, including parents, bosses, VIPs and even the police. This is because your relations with others might be strained. Be low-key and polite.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today you have lots of mental energy, which you can use to accomplish tasks at work or apply to sales, marketing, teaching, acting and working in general. (You might also use this energy to improve your health.) Nevertheless, relations with siblings, relatives and daily contacts are strained. Steady as she goes.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
When it comes to financial matters today, you will take the first step because you feel confident and energetic. Someone else might think you’re being pushy. (Perhaps you are?) Either way, go ahead and begin activities related to inheritances, taxes, debt and shared property.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today the moon is in your sign dancing with Mars, which makes you independent and ready to play a leadership role. This is why others might follow your direction. Having said that however, your relations with partners and close friends are a bit testy today. Smile and be patient.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today you are best served by working alone or behind the scenes because you have the energy to get things done but you might not be keen about cooperating with others. You might feel annoyed with someone. Keep things simple. Work alone.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You are a willful, self-disciplined sign. Today in particular, you’ll be confident about calling the shots and leading groups or teams and friends to achieve mutual goals. Nevertheless, relations with romantic partners and kids might be a tad brusque. (Be aware of this and be softer.)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You make an excellent impression on others today, especially professionally speaking or doing anything related to your job, your career or your activities within your community. However, relations with family members might be strained. (You can’t win ’em all.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Visions of traveling somewhere might spark your imagination today. “I have to get away from all this.” Explore exciting possibilities quietly, because relations with siblings, relatives and neighbors are not ideal today. Keep your dreams to yourself. Packing tropical?
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
When it comes to discussions about inheritances, shared property, taxes or debt, you will defend your best interests today. You might feel challenged by a friend or a professional; however, you know your rights. (Ideally, you might postpone disputes and haggling for another day.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today your attention will be on your most personal relationships. You will certainly express yourself vigorously because issues are important to you today. Admittedly, conflicts with others might arise. Therefore, know what your objective is, and stick to what you want to achieve. Be tactful.
