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 9 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. EDT today. After that the Moon moves from Capricorn into Aquarius.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Social situations could be the source of tension today. In particular, romance might be in the toilet. Anything you do with show business, the entertainment world and sports seem to have "issues" today. Even children seem to be exasperating. (Actually, this is your reaction to what they're doing.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Domestic tension will build up today because of the Full Moon tomorrow. Just try to keep everything on an even keel at home. Don't overreact if family members are crazy emotional. (And don't you fall to the floor screaming and kicking yourself.) This will only alarm the household and agitate matters.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a mildly accident-prone day. However, it's not because an accident is waiting to happen. Rather, it's because you're distracted or hasty. There is tension in the air because of tomorrow's Full Moon. We can all feel it building up. Therefore, take a breath before you speak or act.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You might be anxious about financial matters today. This could relate to earnings or something you're buying or something you own. It's as if some kind of situation is coming to a head, and you have to make a decision, and you don't like it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Things are prickly with close friends and partners today because there's definitely some tension in the air. That's because things are intensifying before tomorrow's Full Mood. Duh? Yes - the Full Mood! All you can do is wait this one out. Perhaps treat yourself with a favourite beverage? (And something to nibble on.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Quite likely, you feel restless and distracted today. This is because the approaching Full Moon peaks tomorrow. I think it's the two days before any Full Moon that are the most stressful. It's almost as if the day the Full Moon peaks is like the eye of the hurricane. (Which is still hairy!)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Difficulties with friends or members of groups might arise today because people are acting out of sorts as the tension builds before tomorrow's Full Moon. Be aware of this if you're perplexed by the behavior of others. (But don't point at them.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
It's not easy dealing with authority figures today -- bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Nevertheless, this is probably what you must do, especially since you seem to be highly visible for them lately! Be discreet and polite.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Travel plans and matters related to higher education, medicine, the law and anything to do with publishing and the media are all areas of stress today. Things that were settled smoothly are suddenly up in the air again. What gives? Answer: It's the Full Moon tomorrow.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Avoid hasty decisions or reactions about how things are shared or divided today. Similarly, be cautious in discussions about what your responsibilities are regarding the possessions and wealth of others. You don't have to come up with these answers today.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Naturally, you might be freaked out about things today because the Full Moon that is building up right now is taking place in your sign. It's bound to cause stress or tension between you and those who are closest to you. Your only recourse is to be patient and sweet.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Give everyone at work extra rope today (they might hang themselves.) You know I'm kidding. To avoid difficulties with coworkers, give them a wide berth. Don't make a big deal about things. In a few days, everything will be calmer..
If Your Birthday Is Today
U.S. President Barack Obama (1961) shares your birthday today. You're very quick and clever. You move around and touch the minds and hearts of many people almost instantaneously. You often occupy a position of influence -- almost like a symbol -- even if you don't seek this out. You're quick to size up every situation. You're extremely persevering. A major change is taking place this year, perhaps as significant as something around 2000.
