Moon Alert

We have the "all clear" today to shop (whether you spend $10 or 10 million) and make important decisions except for one hour from 8:40 a.m. until 9:40 a.m. EST today. The Full Moon takes place in Gemini at 2:30 a.m. tomorrow morning EST.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a mildly accident-prone day for you because of today's Full Moon energy. Knowing this, slow down and allow extra time for everything. Don't push the river. Don't be hasty. Think twice before you speak or do anything. Be extra patient with relatives, especially siblings.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today's Full Moon might create some financial stress. Do you spend your money on yourself, or do you pay some bills? Actually, when you pay your bills, you're doing yourself a favour. (My Mom's a Taurus and she reads this column.) You expected me to say blow it on yourself?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Today the only Full Moon in your sign all year has arrived. This doesn't have to be a big deal. You might simply have a larger emotional reaction to everything. Or you might be fighting an urge to run through the streets screaming, "I have seen the blue screen of death!"

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It's hard to know where to draw the line. You want solitude and the chance to pull your act together in private. But others are making demands on your time, especially at work. How can you balance this? Today's Full Moon says you can't ignore anything to do with your job.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This particular Full Moon is rocky for romance; and it increases tension with your kids. To be more specific, it intensifies the relationships you have with your children. They're not to blame and either are you. The Full Moon just makes people emotional!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You feel the classic tug-of-war between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your public reputation, job, and career. You can't keep both camps happy; however, don't ignore home and family today.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Take it easy today because this is an accident-prone day for you when driving, walking, jogging, and conversing with others. Things are erratic. This Full Moon energy makes it hard to keep things on an even keel when everyone is too emotional -- including you. Shhhh.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today's Full Moon could create some financial anxieties about your earnings, your expenditures, or your possessions. The challenge of earning enough to cover your expenses might really be apparent today. I have two words to offer. Spare change?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This particular Full Moon is directly opposite your sign. You are totally involved because that's what the Full Moon is -- it's an opposition of the Sun and the Moon, which means you're part of this equation! "What?!" Be patient with partners and close friends. (And quit saying "What?!" "What?" will suffice.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The Full Moon today stirs up your unconscious thoughts and feelings today. You might feel disconcerted about something and now know why. (Now you know.) Don't make a big deal about anything. You might be overeating and not realize it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Relationships with friends and members of groups might be a tad testy because of the tension due to today's Full Moon. Knowing this, you can demonstrate grace and diplomacy, and come out smelling like a rose. Be cool.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is not an easy day to deal with authority figures whether it's your mom, your dad, your teacher, or your boss. (And of course, the police.) Do not tempt the dragon for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. (You get the picture.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress/singer Bette Midler (1945) shares your birthday today. You have enormous energy for life. Most of you are extroverted in a dazzling way. You're forthright and frank giving your opinions to others. Your wonderful sense of humour allows you to get away with telling it like it is. You're a flirtatious, generous free spirit. Make sure you take time in the next year to study or learn something important to you.
