Moon alert
Avoid shopping or major decisions from 2:30 to 9:30 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn. The full moon in Sagittarius peaks at 2:44 a.m.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You feel restless today. You want to get outta Dodge. Obviously, if you can travel or take off somewhere that would be ideal. However, you can also do other things to change it up a bit. Vary your daily routine. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Do something.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Negotiations about shared property, finances, taxes, debt and banking will go well today because you have fair Venus in your sign, which makes you diplomatic and charming with everyone. Be patient with increased stress and activity on the home front. You’ve got this.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others, which means you have to compromise. You have to be easygoing and perhaps bite your tongue. You can do this because with the sun in your sign you’re empowered!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today you might find yourself in a position where you have to help someone or put the interests of someone else before your own. (It’s just what it is.) Be accommodating. Fortunately, relations with friends and organizations are excellent today.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Thank goodness the end of the week is approaching because you’re ready to play! Competitive sports will appeal because fiery Mars is in your sign. Plus, bosses and parents look kindly upon you. You’re in the zone!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Home, family and your private life are your focus today. You want to kick back and relax among familiar surroundings. Nevertheless, you look good in the eyes of bosses and VIPs. Time spent with younger people will be stimulating.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today you want to express yourself to someone because you want to be very clear about something. Fortunately, discussions with parents, bosses and VIPs will go well. Meanwhile, gifts and goodies might come your way. (Looking good!)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Your exchanges with partners, spouses and close friends will be pleasant and mutually supportive today. That’s nice. You might make travel plans or explore avenues for further schooling or training because your ambition is aroused. Factoid. Organize your money and belongings.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today the moon is in your sign, which will make you a bit more emotional than usual. However, when this happens (and it occurs for about two days every month), it slightly enhances your good fortune. Go after what you want. Why not ask the universe for a favor?
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
It’s midweek, and you feel low-key and ready to take it easy. Work alone or behind the scenes if you have a choice. You might be tired. Nevertheless, you’re also keen to socialize and have fun! Maybe a quick nap before you head out tonight will let you have your cake and eat it, too.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This is a great day to schmooze and have fun. Enjoy playful activities with kids. Sports events and social outings will please you. Nevertheless, you will be hands-on and detail-oriented at work. Many of you will entertain at home today or this evening.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Be aware that you are high-visibility today, which means people notice you more than usual. In fact, some people will know personal details about your private life. (Good to know in case you have to do some damage control.) Take it easy.
