Moon alert
Avoid shopping or important decisions after 4:30 p.m. Chicago time. The moon moves from Aquarius into Pisces early Wednesday morning.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today you might be tempted to withdraw and keep your feelings secret from others. You might even feel the urge to hide and seek privacy. That’s just fine. It’s actually a good time to be alone and contemplate your navel. You might also explore mystical or spiritual disciplines.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today you want to connect with a friend or maybe a member of a group. It’s important to you. In fact, you might feel more protective and supportive than usual to someone. Conversely, you might reach out to someone because you need their emotional support. Connect with someone today.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Professional and business concerns have your attention today. However, this is also a day where your most intimate and personal life seems to be on public display more than usual. You find it difficult to hide things. (Be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Study, mental journeys and, of course, physical travel will be ideal choices for you today because you want to expand your world and feel like you’re doing something different. This is because you want some stimulation and adventure in your life. Break free of routine. Shake things up a little!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
For various reasons, you tend to identify with what you own today. This is why you might not want to lend something to someone or might feel possessive about something. You might also find yourself having to defend yourself about something that doesn’t really matter. (Go figure.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
With the moon opposite your sign today, you’ll turn your attention to your most personal relationships. Unfortunately, if you have a confrontation with someone, it will be more emotional and highly charged. Lighten up. Don’t make a big deal about anything. (For your own sake.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today you might have to put the wants and needs of someone else before your own. Don’t worry, you’re not being a martyr. This is just what’s happening. Actually, you might find it satisfying to assist someone who needs your help.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
It might be difficult to conceal your feelings from others today. (If you have a crush on someone, you’ll be wearing your heart on your sleeve.) This is because in your relations with others, you’ll project yourself more emotionally today. You’ll feel nurturing with children.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This is the perfect day to withdraw and retire to the familiar surroundings of your home. You want privacy, peace and quiet. You’re not being antisocial — you simply need time to reflect and replenish. Childhood memories might come to mind.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Today your communications with others feel more important than usual. This is because you have something to say. Because of this, you want someone to listen to you. As a result, you might feel impatient or irritated with superficial chitchat.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today your emotional experiences will be more intense than usual. This could be because you will meet someone who is intense or because something happens that affects you psychologically. You might also desire something that belongs to someone else. “My precious!”
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today the moon is in your sign, which will make you more emotional than usual. However, it will also make you more sensitive. Oh yes, your spidey sense is turned on. The result is you might be emotionally demanding or emotionally generous. (But your luck will improve.)
