Moon Alert
We have the All Clear to make important decisions and shop until 4:45 p.m. EDT today. But Moon is in Scorpio.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Difficulties with friends and groups make you feel like navel lint today. Don't beat yourself up about anything. Don't get hung up on regrets. Similarly, don't be judgmental about others. We are all frail mortals grappling on this darkling plain. (Sigh.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Relations with bosses, parents and VIPs are difficult now. For one thing, they're subject to confusion. It's too easy to blame or lay a guilt trip on somebody. (What's the point?) By the same token, don't beat yourself up about anything that you feel disappointed about.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Siblings and relatives might disappoint you today. The thing you have to consider is: were your expectations realistic? Remember: unexpressed expectations are a sure guarantee for disappointment. This is actually not the time to discuss anything important. Wait a day or two.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
This is not a good day for important financial transactions or discussions. You have too much Vaseline on your lens. (Ditto for other people as well.) Confusion is rampant today! People are too quick to point fingers at each other. Everyone wants to lay blame. Oy vey!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Power struggles about money or possessions are practically unavoidable. You're determined to get your way about something. All Leos are royalty and have a strong sense of noblesse oblige. But are you really entitled to this? With Saturn in your sign, money is crunchy now. Try to relax.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your energy level is high today. You have two options: you can creatively transform the world around you or you can get into fights with others. Hmmm - which sounds like more fun? If you get too pushy about your ideas, you will only arouse opposition to them. Think about it.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
In a tiny way, today could be the dark night of the soul for some of you. Avoid ruthless people. Avoid dangerous situations. Avoid areas that are high crime or potentially violent. These are unlikely outcomes, but the potential is there. Keep your nose clean and your eyes open.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Serious conflicts with friends and groups are likely today. You might be tempted to be pushy or sneaky. (Moi?) You often underestimate how strong and even intimidating you are. (I'm a pussycat!) But what happens when someone tries to steal your bowl of cream?
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Please take my advice: avoid power struggles with bosses, parents, VIPs and the police. It won't be a pretty picture. This is not the day to go head to head with anyone. If someone comes on too strong with you - "Run away! Run away!"
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Intense arguments about political, religious, or racial matters could arise today. Problems with travel, publishing, the media and dealing with other cultures are likely. This is your opportunity to demonstrate grace under pressure. Show people your tolerance and wisdom.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
If you get pushy about shared property or other people's wealth today, you could actually lose. You aren't Gary Cooper in High Noon. Sure the townspeople let him down -- but he was a movie star. Are you? (Oh, I'm flattered you're reading the column.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Because Mars is opposite your sign now, you're having difficulty with partners and close friends. I understand this. But watch my lips (actually my fingers.) Do not have arguments with others today. Things will end up in the toilet so fast - you'll be stunned.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Cameron Diaz (1972) shares your birthday today. You're hard working, organized and reliable. People want to have you on their team. Not only are you extremely capable, you have good money sense as well. Without doubt, your confidence and poise inspire respect from others. In your early twenties, you become bolder and more intense about everything in life. This year is full of exciting, fresh new beginnings!
