Moon Alert
Caution: from 3 am until 6:15 pm EDT today, avoid shopping or making important decisions today.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Work will not be ho-hum and routine today. Oh no! Computer systems will crash; machinery will breakdown; conflict with coworkers could erupt; even the coffee machine might call it quits. Everything is up for grabs today. You might feel that this is the proverbial last straw. (My hump hurts.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Parents must be extra vigilant with children today. This is definitely an accident-prone day for your kids. Be aware at all times of things that could go wrong. (Because they will.) Be gentle and patient. Allow extra time for everything. Romantic relationships are exploratory and kinky. (Who new?)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Domestic explosions are exasperating. Family members are touchy, rebellious and completely unpredictable. It's hard to say what will happen next. Your only choice is to go with the flow. Just hang with the herd and keep running. Muster up all patience you can. (You have no choice.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You might strike out rashly at people who have angered you in the past. Old resentments just explode out of nowhere today. (Especially the kind that you've been politely sitting on.) The worst! Remember patience is the antidote to anger. It's just a Band-Aid, but sometimes that's all ya got.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Impulse spending can really grab you by the throat today. Actually, everything to do with cash flow is surprising, unpredictable and unexpected today. Therefore, you might make money in a surprising way. (You hope.) But you could also lose it. Oh yeah. Bummer.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
A sudden release of tension with someone generally means an argument. You feel you have to liberate yourself from suffocating circumstances. You're just not going to listen to one more word. Not without saying something. "Something." (Sometimes it's hard to keep a lid on it.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You might feel uncomfortable at a deep level within, and not really know why. It's as if little gremlins or demons are stirred within you. They make you impatient, apprehensive, and tense. In turn, this causes you to act impulsively in surprising ways. Even you're nonplussed.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Expect sudden changes with plans related to conferences, meetings, group activities and personal friends. What you think will take place doesn't. What you think won't take place does. The Fickle Finger of Fate is pointing at you. Ironically, you might be the agent of change as well.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
It's time for the proverbial last straw. You can't take another minute. If you have to put up this one more time -- it's game over. You're really tempted to tell somebody off today. However, be careful. If you tell the boss off -- the boss will bite back. Ouch. (I hate it when that happens.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Unexpected opportunities connected with education, advanced training, travel or matters related to publishing might take place right now. These are surprising times. Something in the media might shock you or really catch your attention. Stay tuned for tomorrow's story.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Disputes about property, shared possessions, debt, taxes or the joint responsibilities you have for something are likely. These are areas that hold surprises for you today. They're also areas where you want to stand up and take your power. No more Missus Nice Gal.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Somebody could really throwyou a curve today. (Don't leave home without your catcher's mitt.) Someone who annoys you might get in your face. You need this like a fish needs a bicycle. Try your best to demonstrate grace under pressure. It's not always easy, but it can be done.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Edward Norton (1969) shares your birthday. You're philosophical and deep. Your patience is your greatest friend. Challenges do not deter you. You savour life and value your experiences. You'll always pursue your personal vision of things. You're a natural leader, and easily gain the respect of others. Major changes await you this year. (Changes for the better.)
