Daily Horoscope for Saturday, June 17, 2006

Moon Alert

We have the All Clear to shop or make important decisions today. The Moon is in Pisces.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

It's not easy to be a happy camper today. Your efforts to have fun or dabble in the arts, or relate to lovers could be frustrating and make you angry. There's no upside to this. You're seething in silence. Go do something else. Run!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

For whatever reason, you have to button your lip even if you're annoyed with family members today. To speak up will only worsen things. ("Help! I'm a prisoner trapped in my body.") You can do this. You very rarely lose your temper. (Because it's devastation if you do.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Conversations with others especially siblings might be frustrating today. For some reason, you're doing a slow boil about something. You're upset or angry but you can't express it because it either looks petty or is not appropriate. This isn't the worst thing that can happen. You can muddle through this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You're not willing to part with your hard-earned money today. However, you are willing to work very hard to earn more of it. Nevertheless, something about money and possessions doesn't sit right today. You don't like it, and you never have. (Relax.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You'll probably feel inhibited in some of your actions or your need to express yourself today. You might even find your freedom of movement inhibited. (I hate that; especially if you forgot to pack a lunch.) Instead, turn to hard work, especially working with metals.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You feel upset about something, and might not even know for sure what it is. Others could be working behind your back and not for your best interests. Perhaps someone says something that confirms your worst fears? These feelings pass quickly.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

There's a dicey energy out there today. (Mars conjunct Saturn.) It can make you work hard with groups to get things done. But it can also make you angry with others. You might feel blocked or held back or turned off. Fortunately, this is just a temporary dark cloud on your horizon. Gone in 24 hours.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It's not easy dealing with parents, teachers, bosses and authority figures today. The problem is you feel frustrated with them and yet you can't speak up. You see mistakes but you have to hold your tongue. What a bummer. If you think you should remain quiet -- you probably should.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Plans connected with higher education, schools, publishing and the media seem to be on hold. Ditto for travel plans. You're not happy but your hands are tied. You'll just have to sit this one out. Fortunately, even a hurricane only lasts a day.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your concern about fund-raising or the property of others or even something related to your private sex life could cause you to feel frustrated today. It's sort of a "Talk to the hand" scene. You feel abused, misunderstood and rejected. Not good. This feeling passes quickly.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid arguments with partners and close friends today. You probably will because for some reason you can't speak up. Nevertheless, you are irritated. Oh yes! But you'll lose more than you gain by opening your mouth. Aaagghh. And you know it. (Gulp.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don't be pushy with coworkers today, even if you're unhappy with what they're doing. (And there's a good chance you are.) Just stay in your own crib. Do your own thing. These pent-up feelings of frustration will pass soon.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Graphic artist M.C. Escher (1898-1972) shares your birthday. You're goal oriented. (You have your eye on the prize.) This is why you have high standards and place big demands on yourself. You have a fine mind. You're aware of relationships and spatial connections. You work well with changing conditions, which is why you like to travel. In the year ahead, if you work hard to construct something, you'll be pleased.
