Daily Horoscope for Friday, September 12, 2003

Moon Alert

We have the All Clear today to shop and make important decisions until 9:30 p.m. EDT.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Lo! What 'tis on yonder horizon? Could it be an Aries Moon? It is! What a good day to start your weekend. The pressures of the week have lightened somewhat. This evening you want to make sweeping changes wherever you are to whatever you're doing. Voila!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is the first day this week that's lighter (even then, it's serious in the morning.) By serious, I mean fleeting doubts about ending up as a bag lady and all that. In truth, security is an illusion. All you have is your state of mind. (But money in the bank helps.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a good day to relax, and enjoy a little nosh with friends. You have plans to fix up where you live. You want to make things look better and feel better. Relatives could be involved in your life at the moment. In fact, they might be camped out on the living room couch eating your food.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will probably have a significant conversation with a boss, authority figure, parent or a member of the police force. Of course, if you're in the police force this is no big deal. But you might still have to face Mom. (Does she approve of you carrying a gun?)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have strong feelings of escapism today. You want to be anywhere but here. You want great room service and sunsets over sparking lakes. No rugrats. Just adults -- having harmless, immature fun. At the very least, why not be a tourist in your own city? Get a babysitter.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You feel sexy and appealing today. You'll probably hold this in because you're so discriminating, you don't want just anyone responding to you. (After all, one that must have standards.) But you are a very earthy, sexy sign and today -- it shows.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is not the day to throw your weight around. This Aries Moon opposes your sign, and all those planets in Virgo are "hidden" in your chart. Just bide your time. Be charming and accommodating to everybody. This evening, discussions are profound and intense. (Anyone in mind?)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today's Aries Moon energizes you, especially at work. Did you know that Aries is the sign that is most like you? The difference is that you're grown-up. You might buy something or do something that ultimately improves your health. You want to make a fresh start in some way.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a good weekend to party. You feel strong, powerful and you know that all eyes are on you. Tonight you'll be especially flirtatious. (You rascal.) It's a good time for you to explore creative or entertaining options. The bottom line is this: you want laughs.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Go ahead with plans to make improvements to where you live or to the dynamics within your family. You have the energy, the perseverance, and the purpose of mind to accomplish quite a bit. Just relax your standards (you know what a perfectionist you are).

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You feel more social than usual -- which is saying a lot for your sign. Get out and schmooze with acquaintances, siblings and pals. People have strong opinions today. You might learn something quite fascinating that has a powerful influence on you.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a good day to attend to banking matters and financial details. Trust your bright ideas about how to make improvements somewhere. New moneymaking ideas are also worth considering. Get creative.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Rachel Ward (b. 1957) shares your birthday. You are active and fearless. You have a strong personality and a magnificent wit. Justice and ethical issues matter a great deal to you. You know how to balance your physical and mental nature very well. This year could be one of the best years of your life. Dream big.
