The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
*** This is a low-energy day. If you work from home, you might not get dressed. This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval from anyone in a position of authority - a parent, boss, supervisor or the police.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
*** Today conversations with others will be like two ships passing in the night. Don't expect much, especially if you're dealing with travel issues or publishing. Ditto for legal or medical matters. This is a low-energy - even confusing day. Sit this one out.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
*** Although you might be interested in discussing financial matters - this is not the day to do it. Everyone is running on empty. Communications are slightly confused and definitely disinterested. Take a nap.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
**** People are tired today and not particularly interested in anything other than food. (That's a given.) Because the Moon is in your sign, you have a slight edge over all the other signs, which means things might go your way.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
*** This is a sluggish day at work. It's difficult for people to concentrate. You might be preoccupied with the past. You might find yourself being more concerned with trivialities than the matter at hand. Don't be hard on yourself. Everyone feels this way today.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
*** This is a tough day for parents because you feel low-energy and dealing with kids requires strength and focus. Good luck! This is also the classic day for misunderstandings and disappointments in romance. People are not interested. They're distracted. ("Are you kidding? You're distracted?")
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
*** This is a poor day for an important family discussion although this is exactly what might take place today. If so, your timing could be better. Relax at home. Postpone important decisions for another day. Take it easy and cut everyone else some slack. Grab a cookie.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
*** It's a curious because the planetary vibes today will make you want to talk to someone. You have ideas you want to share; plus, you want to hear the latest gossip or news about town. However, you might be too tired to go out. You can barely scroll. It's that kinda day.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
*** Financial matters will require your attention today whether they're about your earnings or possessions, or something to do with the shared resources of someone else. However, your physical energy is low and your mental energy is lower. Cope as best you can. Everything seems to be too much trouble.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
*** Most people are bummed out because they're low-energy today and can't crank up enough interest to put out the effort. (We've all been there. We've all had days like this.) Well, this is another one. Because the Moon is opposite your sign, you have to compromise. (I'm not making this up.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
*** "Beware! Today people are acting under the influence of human nature." Actually, this is not entirely true. Human nature can be hard-working, pumped and enthusiastic most of the time. But today is not one of those times. Today it will be hard to get out of bed. Stay chill.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
**** You might enjoy a relaxing time with a friend if you can each sit comfortably and not expect too much from each other. The fact is you do feel like socializing -- but it's too much trouble. It's best to see people in small doses today.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor David Gyasi (1980) shares your birthday today. You are sensitive, perceptive and attuned to the finer details of your surroundings. You are motivated, diligent and hard-working. Simplicity is the key to life this year. It's time to build and create solid foundations both externally and internally. Take charge of your health. Explore martial arts or yoga.
