Daily Horoscope for Monday, April 14, 2003

Moon Alert

Avoid important decisions or major expenditures from 2:30 p.m. until 10 p.m. EDT today

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a good day to talk to someone older or more experienced and make plans for the future. Solid advice goes a long way. Plus you are more concerned about the future than you have been in the past. (Even though the future is much like the present only longer.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Purchases made today will be long lasting and practical. You won't spend money on frills; you feel careful, cautious and thrifty. You want to spend your money in a way that gives you dividends now and in the future. (Fresh flowers just don't cut it now.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You can get a lot done today because others are particularly supportive. Always remember -- you don't have to reinvent the wheel. Seek out the advice of those who are older and more experienced. Steal their advice. (If you talk to many- it's research not plagiarism.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a good day to receive guidance from someone in authority about world events and government matters. You want to understand as much as possible what is expected of you. Where do you fit into all this? And is there a bonus give away at the end?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your concerns are far-reaching and global today. In part, this is because you're at a stage in your life where you're looking for ways to make a difference. You want to be part of something bigger than yourself. You want to make a contribution. You're willing to put the group first.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Practical assistance, approved loans, approved budgets, and the general necessary wherewithal to do things is yours today. You have the support of whoever and whatever you need to get things done. Partnerships are particularly favored. (Maybe your neighbor will lend you his vacation condo.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is good day for serious discussions about the media, higher education, legal matters and foreign travel. Everybody is in a sensible frame of mind. Don't get sidetracked with confusion or tension at home. Others appreciate your input now - so give it.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Go forward with plans to get better organized at work because you have the support you need. You want to get the job done and you want to do it right. Give careful consideration to every aspect, but keep your plans to yourself. (If you're going to draw on the wall -- do it behind the sofa.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A number of things might happen today. You could fall for someone older, richer, more sophisticated, with a great car and a family home in Bermuda. Or you could give up gambling. Or you might take on a greater share of the responsibility of children. (Bermuda sounds like the most fun.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a wonderful way for your sign to start the week off. Your ruler Saturn is on beautiful terms with the Sun today. You feel confident, calm, prepared and well pulled together. You've done your homework (Or at least it looks like you have.) Feel free to give advice with authority.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a good day to enter into serious contracts related to the entertainment world, show business, professional sports and the hospitality industry. Similarly, serious discussions about children might take place. Trust your own judgment. (It's solid.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don't be afraid to spend money today that can improve your home or repair things in a basic way. Whatever you do will have a long-term benefit. Similarly, financial assistance or direct practical help for a family member is a benefit for everyone.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Sir John Gielgud (b. 1904) shares your birthday. You are smooth and persuasive. You respect society's values and are often a leader in your milieu. You have strong ties to family and work best with a stable lifestyle. The ahead holds exciting changes for you -- changes as impacting as 1994.
