Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or important decisions from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. After that, the moon moves from Taurus into Gemini.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You’re a take-charge leader, and today is the kind of day when you will demonstrate your ability to influence a group to do your bidding. These might be younger people. They might be creative types. Whatever the case, you will lead the way.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Your ambition is aroused today, which is why you’re determined to get what you want. However, your determination is so strong you might clash with a boss, an authority figure, or someone competing with you. Remember what your objective is and work to achieve that.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a tricky day. After the moon moves into your sign (see above), you will have the advantage over all the other signs. Nevertheless, steer clear of disputes and arguments about politics, religion and racial issues because they could get nasty. Tread carefully.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Be diplomatic to achieve what you want when dealing with issues about inheritances, shared property, taxes, debt and insurance claims, because this is a classic day for confrontations of ego. Don’t let things escalate into intense situations, as they could get nasty.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Patience and diplomacy are your best friends today because partners and others who might be close to you might oppose you, creating a Mexican standoff. This is the classic day for ego battles and power struggles. Don’t let things escalate to a threatening level. Be cool.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a restless day! Later in the day and tonight, you are noticed by others; in fact, some people will know personal details about your private life. You’re working hard to accomplish something, which is why this will be a productive day. (You will brook no interference.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Parents must be patient dealing with their kids today because power struggles could get out of hand, which is not what you want. Likewise, a romantic argument might quickly escalate into something unpleasant. Sports activities might also lead to fighting — even violence. Take a breath—cool down.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Avoid dangerous neighborhoods or people who are quick to anger in a scary way. Although unlikely, the vibes today could become ruthless because Mars is aligned with Pluto, which represents an enormous burst of energy and a determination to take over a situation.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
By nature, you are upbeat and optimistic. Remember this if today you become tempted to fall prey to an inflated ego and start to boss the world around you. Avoid dangerous neighborhoods. Avoid negative people. Take the high road — the view is better.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Avoid money squabbles or quarrels about possessions because, at the least, these will frustrate you, and at the worst, they’ll become threatening. Instead, channel your energy into a task at hand, your work, or how to improve your health. Seek a diversion.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today, Mars and Pluto are lined up in your sign, which means you have an opportunity to accomplish a great deal or to wreak havoc. Think of the moment when Uncle Ben tells Spider-Man, “Remember, with great power comes great responsibility.” Today, you have great power.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This is actually an excellent day to tackle hard work and get a lot done. In fact, you will get a lot of satisfaction out of your achievements. Watch out for aggressive, pushy people. Avoid dangerous neighborhoods. Keep your wits about you.
If today is your birthday
Actress Mimi Rogers (1956) shares your birthday today. You like to be challenged and stimulated. You’re also determined, benevolent and relaxed. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Make a point of associating with people who are kind, helpful and have your back. Concentrate on what brings you happiness, especially in relationships.
