Daily Horoscope for Thursday, June 19, 2003

Moon Alert

We have the All Clear today to shop and make important decisions.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today requires a bit more patience on your part dealing with the world around you. The Moon is in Pisces and this puts it a bit at odds with all this Gemini action taking place now. People are a tiny bit prickly. Including you. (Maybe you're not using the right moisturizer?)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You might have a tiny emotional reaction to something someone says today. You feel blocked or irritated. In all likelihood, it relates to money or a possession of yours. You're never casual about money and your possessions. You're serious about what you touch and what you own.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Even though three planets are still in your sign, today's Moon makes a 90-degree angle to them. This is a bit of a sticky wicket. You might get more of a reaction from your boss than you expect. Ditto for a parent. Yes -- people are touchy today! Be soothing with your words.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Feelings of escapism and denial work are in the air today. You would rather be anywhere but here. This makes it hard to concentrate on work. Don't be tough on yourself. You always feel the changes of the Moon very strongly. Be patient and don't push the river.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is not a good day to try to get money out of others. Fund-raising, trying to collect a loan or a debt, sharing what you have with someone, defining the boundaries about shared property -- all these kinds of discussions become mired with resistance. Wait till tomorrow.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The Moon opposes your sign and squares planets in Gemini. This means you shouldn't put spicy dressing on your salad. Of course, it doesn't mean this. It means that discussions with others, especially authority figures are a bit rough. Tomorrow is a much better day.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be patient dealing with people from another country. Similarly, be patient dealing with matters related to publishing, the law, higher education and foreign travel. Impatience doesn't speed things up -- ironically, it causes errors and delays. (One of life's cruel ironies.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a poor day for discussions about the shared responsibilities of children or joint property. In fact, everything to do with show business, the entertainment world, the hospitality industry and sports gets hung up a bit. Choose tomorrow for a day to tackle these matters.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Six out of the 10 planets today either oppose or square your sign. This is small potatoes really, but it is a signal that you shouldn't try to push too hard to get your way. Avoid arguments with family members. Tomorrow is a far better day to get cooperation from others. (Send out for chocolate.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

A restless almost explosive feeling within you makes you demanding today. Plus, you're gung ho to get things done at work. Hold your horses! Take a deep breath and go more slowly. You don't have to convince anybody about anything. And if you do -- do it tomorrow

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Impulse buying and rash spending connected with romance, entertainment, partying and show business are tempting today. It's not a big deal, really. You won't give away the farm. But you should be aware that you are acting suspiciously like a Leo. (Why?)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

The Moon is in your sign today and this gives you a slight edge over everybody else. However, your Pisces Moon is at odds with other planets. (Take that! And that!") Oh well, half is better than none. One candle is better than the darkness.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Gena Rowlands (b. 1930) shares your birthday. Because you have a strong personality, you bring out the best (or worse) in others. You can be provocative! You know what you want, and you go after it. Your vibrant style stimulates others. This year you will face several exciting choices. Choose wisely.
