The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 8:15 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. EDT today. After that the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Try not be critical of lovers or children (if you're a parent or working with children) because it's easy to fall into this today. Ouch! Mercury, the planet of communications is lined up with stern Saturn. You don't have to act like a prairie grandfather. ("Get up at 6 a.m. and cut wood.")
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Conversations with family members today will centre on practical concerns. Refrain from being picky or critical with family members because it's really easy to do that today. We don't need to know how far you walked to school when your kid, and how you never had a cell phone. Wa, wa, wa.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Mercury is the planet that is your ruler. Today it's in bed with Saturn. Saturn is definitely going to hog most of the blankets, and make Mercury feel bad if it even complains! Don't fall into worry mode. Don't criticize others; and don't beat yourself up. Focus on the positive not the negative.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You might be concerned about money issues, your earnings, your expenses, and your possessions -- the whole enchilada. Why is there always so much month left at the end of the money? Do all calendars work this way or is it just the Gregorian?
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
The Sun, Venus, Saturn and Mercury are all in your sign. One could say the whole world is having a Leo hit. However, because Mercury is so close to Saturn, this sobers things. You're very serious. You're playing your cards close to your chest. (Remember to smile!)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your powers of concentration are excellent. This is a good day to do research, or to tackle mundane, routine tasks that you would normally avoid. Today you've got to jam to do them. You just put one foot in front of the other and keep on moving.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You might feel a friend is critical of you today or perhaps vice versa. Or perhaps you feel others are hanging black, crepe paper everywhere. Don't get caught up in this. Instead, listen to the advice of someone older and wiser. "Beam me up, Scotty."
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Conversations with authority figures, bosses, parents, teachers and the police are very sober and serious today. Everyone is dispensing advice. People are focusing on negative characteristics rather than acknowledging the positive traits of things and people. Don't get trapped into doing this! (Oy, yoy, yoy!)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Travel plans might look bleak. Ditto for plans to go to school. You feel trapped where once you felt free. If you can play the guitar, you could write a blues song today. ("If the phone doesn't ring, I know it's you.")
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
If you're trying to share something with someone, or figure out how something will be divided (bonuses, perks, inheritances, or money) this is not the best day to do this. You'll fall into negative thinking too easily. You won't have the will to stand up for yourself.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Use every ounce available to you to be patient with partners and close friends today -- even if you think they're picking on you. In many ways, this is a serious, sober day. But it's a good day for planning the future, which is a good thing since you're going to live the rest of your life there.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Your powers of concentration are excellent today. This will help you to easily accomplish mundane, routine tasks. Your mind will not wonder. You're doing things for the long haul.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Robert Redford (1936) shares your birthday today. You're wise and emotionally deep. If you want to, you're a natural leader. You're a great advisor and helpmate to others. You want to experience life firsthand. You don't complain because you understand that life is never easy. You can be fun-loving; but essentially you're a serious realist. The year ahead could be one of the best years of your life! Yeehaw!
