Aries (March 21-April 19)
You feel a bit excited about life today, perhaps because you have met someone new who is unusual. Or someone you already know might do something that surprises you. If you’re involved with a group, you will likely play a leadership role. “To the gates!”
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You make a great impression on others today because you’re full of novel, innovative ideas. In addition, you’re ready to stand your ground and promote what you support and believe. Because of this zeal, others are ready to listen to you and perhaps follow your lead.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Feelings of independence make you want to travel or do something different today. Not only do you want to broaden your horizons physically, but you also want to learn new things and expand your intellectual appreciation of the world. Sudden travel opportunities might fall in your lap.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Double-check banking information and anything to do with shared property or contracts related to inheritances and jointly held matters because something unexpected could impact these areas. Don’t give away the farm! Know what you’re doing.

Conversations with partners and close friends might be exciting today. Someone might make a suggestion to spontaneously do something.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Something unexpected might catch you off guard related to work or your health. Think before you react. Don’t be too hasty. You might also be tempted to spend too much money or go overboard on something today. Pet owners should be extra vigilant today.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Keep your wits about you today because you might be tempted to be excessive or act recklessly. For starters, social occasions are up for grabs. A sudden invitation might delight you. Or perhaps something suddenly will be canceled? (Parents should be vigilant about their kids to avoid accidents.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Your home routine might be interrupted today. Small appliances might break down, or a minor breakage could occur. Surprise company might appear at your door. Be ready for anything and stock the fridge — have something on hand. You make a great impression on others!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is an accident-prone day for you. Meanwhile, you might have novel, ingenious ideas. In fact, your enthusiasm for something might make you go overboard convincing friends or a group. (Double-check your data.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Your financial situation is subject to change today. You might find money; you might lose money. You might have original money-making ideas, or you might discover that something just isn’t viable. Your enthusiasm will influence others today — be aware of this.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You crave emotional excitement today, which is why you might be a bit impulsive. You also might want to make changes in your immediate environment. Some of you will join a group effort to advocate change and new policies. (You love this stuff.) Don’t leave home without your megaphone.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This might be an unsettling day for you because something going on behind the scenes is a bit unpredictable. Perhaps it relates to a financial decision that seems too rosy? Something to do with shared property might need rethinking, especially if you’ve gone overboard or been too optimistic.
