Moon Alert
We have the All Clear to shop or make important decisions today.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today has its minor stresses; nevertheless, in the bigger picture, this month is all about expressing your creativity, enjoying the company of children, exploring the entertainment world, and delighting in romance and love affairs. Make plans to socialize and trade coping skills.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Your focus continues to be on domestic matters and family. You're also dealing with people from the past. (Especially if you have a lakefront cottage.) Whatever arises today could be considered an opportunity to practice patience. That's the best way to look at it.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your ruler Mercury continues to be retrograde causing delays, transportation breakdowns, communication snafus and misunderstandings. It's all small stuff, but it's always the little things that get you down. Right? Focus on fixing up your digs. Entertain people.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
It's not that high finances are your thing right now; but you are concerned with how to earn a living, and how to spend what money you have. In part, you're thinking about these things because you're trying to determine what your value system is. I mean, what really matters?
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Most of you are still going through a process of giving things up and letting go as you move into or adjust to a whole new sandbox. This year and next are one of the most important years of your life. (Time to buy new underwear.) Be patient with others. Mercury is retrograde in your sign.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Sometime you just have to roll up the carpet and hide behind your front door. You need a little rest and privacy. Not easy to do if you have a passel of kids. Nevertheless, respect your need for increased peace and quiet right now. Turn off the boob tube. Try reading. (It's quaint and fun.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
This is a social time. Everyone wants to see your puss. People are extending invitations, as well as dropping in. In fact, you're running into a lot of old faces from your past. (And believe me, most Librans have a past.) Accept invitations this weekend. Enjoy yourself in a low-key way.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The Moon continues to be in your sign (until tomorrow afternoon); and this is somewhat empowering. It can make you more emotional about everything however. Relations with bosses and VIPs (and parents) are significant now. Be gentle with others.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You continue to be focused on matters in other countries, publishing, the media, higher education, medicine and the law. This is the stuff of your sign! It's important to expand your horizons in some way now. Sit up. Be a person. Get dressed. Go out. Talk to others. Take notes.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is a very good time to take care of loose ends related to wills, insurance matters, inheritances, taxes and debt. You can clear up any confusion (one hopes) about shared property now. You can also more clearly define what your responsibilities for others are.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
It's mildly stressful now with three planets opposing your sign, including retrograde Mercury. This definitely brings ex partners and old friends back into the picture. (I thought you through that frame out?) Chaos and activity at home are challenging. Make plans to socialize this weekend.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You can really get a lot done now simply because you have the ambition to do so. Retrograde Mercury does cause delays to work schedules and your overall efficiency in general. But it helps you to do research and finish old tasks. (You win some; you lose some.)
If Your Birthday Is Today
Tennis player Pete Sampras (1971) shares your birthday. You have a busy life because you constantly attempt to do many things. And you succeed! You're highly creative; and you're serious about whatever you do. You're extremely hard working. You do your homework so that you're prepared. You have a strong respect for tradition. A major cycle finished for you this year.
