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 5:45 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. EDT today. After that the Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Be extra-patient with family members today. A lot of subconscious feelings and emotions might be at the bottom of your reaction to others. Old jealousies or resentments could cause you to say something that is really not what you want to say when you think about it later. Oops.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Friction with siblings is possible today. You feel very passionately and intense about something today. Because of this you're inclined to push your opinions on others or try to get them to agree with you. Maybe nobody else wants to jump on board? 'Twas ever thus.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Don't get your belly in a rash about money issues with others today because it's very easy to do this. It's as if something has suddenly grabbed you by the throat and it's forcing you to state your terms very bluntly. Hey -- is all this really necessary?
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
It was Monday. It was Monday all day. You're going to need two cups of coffee this morning. Relations with partners and close friends are intensely prickly. Frankly, it's a bit of a power struggle. You want to control somebody else or they're determined to control you. Try to avoid this silliness.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You might feel grumpy and not even know why. Ironically, down deep you might be critical of yourself and stuff that you've let slide. Don't beat yourself up. And don't beat others up as well. Try smiling at yourself in the mirror. It works! (I do it every six months whether I need to or not.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Minor conflicts with friends and members of groups are likely today. These are probably little things you can't really respond to because it will sound too picayune; nevertheless, they're irksome! Take the high road. Be a hero and ignore this pettiness.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Tiptoe around bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs today. Do not wake the sleeping giant! Encounters with others are intense because they express powerful forces that are actually triggered by your subconscious. Needless to say they'll reveal a lot about you and others!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Avoid heated discussions about politics, religion and racial issues today. This is not the day to state your opinions about anything. Similarly, higher education, publishing, the media, travel and medicine are also a tad dicey. Back off. Jealousy and possessiveness are rampant today.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This is a very poor day to decide how to deal with inheritances, insurance matters, taxes, debt and, definitely, shared property. You feel unusually possessive and unwilling to share. And others might feel the same way. Just agree to disagree and table these discussions for another day.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Conflict with others can be surprisingly emotional and intense today. People (including you) will take things very personally. It's not worth it because nobody is seeing things very clearly today anyway. Just do routine tasks and fake courtesy. "Have a nice day." (You don't have to go as far as actually smiling.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Parents should be patient with children today. People are agitated because of deep, subconscious fears and insecurities that are bubbling to the surface and they're not even aware of them. Therefore, conversations are confusing and probably hurtful. Be kind.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Make a firm decision not to talk about anything important with family members today. Especially Mom. Keep things light. If you do have some concerns, wait until tomorrow to bring them up. Everyone feels a little bit raw today. And it's Monday!
If Your Birthday Is Today
Model Claudia Schiffer (1960) shares your birthday today. You're sexy, physical and very vital. Many of you have dramatic, tempestuous, romantic relationships. You're active and you have an intelligent mind. You bloom when others admire you. Privately, you have the courage of your own convictions. This year you will study or learn something important to prepare for next year -- one of the most powerful years in your life.
