The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
Moon Alert
We have the "all clear" today to shop (whether you spend $10 or $10 million) and make important decisions. The Moon is in Gemini.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Things are confusing today, especially at work. Someone might give you incorrect information. Worse yet, someone might purposely mislead you. You might feel similarly confused about your health, and indeed, you might feel fatigued. All sounds kinda scary, doesn't it? Fear not -- you can handle this.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Confusion related to dealing with children is likely today. Be constantly mindful about the possibility of food poisoning or any kind of chemical poisoning with small children. Romance might be disappointing, quite likely because you had unrealistic expectations. Ah yes, it was ever thus. (When it comes to romance, we always have unrealistic expectations!)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a poor day for important family discussions. An element of distrust or doubt is prevalent, perhaps because someone is trying to get your sympathy. (Don't trust crocodile tears.) On the other hand (you're wearing different rings), someone might really need your help. (So -- you want to be kind, yet you don't want to be a sucker.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today conversations with others are like two ships passing in the night. "Hellooo?" Deception, confusion and misunderstandings are rampant. In large measure, this is because we tend to believe what we want to believe today. It's wishful thinking in an obtuse way. (That's the story of my life!)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is a poor day for important financial decisions or important purchases. Confusion about money matters, cash flow and possible deceptions are all likely. If shopping, you might be tempted to spend extravagantly. (You? This is hard to believe.) Just know that your thinking is fuzzy and wishful and certainly not grounded.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Disappointments with others are likely today because you feel let down or perhaps spurned or unappreciated. But were your expectations realistic? Were they unexpressed? Unexpressed expectations are a sure guarantee for disappointment. Bummer.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Don't worry if you feel lonely or adrift today. It goes with the territory with what's happening astrologically. Everyone feels this way to varying degrees today, but for some reason, you're trying to hide it - even from yourself. (Who are you trying to kid?)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
When dealing with groups today, especially official meetings, assume nothing. Don't gloss over things. If you don't understand something - speak up. Many people are either deceived or subject to misunderstandings today. (Dontcha love it?)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Relations with authority figures - parents, bosses, teachers and VIPs - are highly subject to misunderstandings and confusion today. It's easy to make a wrong assumption about what you think someone else wants. It's also easy to give the wrong impression. Yikes!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Double-check travel plans today as well as important decisions with higher education, publishing, the media, medicine and the law. Misunderstandings and confusion are likely in these areas. You might drive onto a ferry going to a different island. (Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This is a poor day for important decisions about inheritances, shared property, insurance matters, taxes and debt. Quite likely, you don't have all the facts. Alternatively, the facts you do have are probably wrong. (Just assume you don't have the right information.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Disappointments in partners and close friends are likely today. You feel let down in some way. However, perhaps someone is disappointed in you? Don't let this cramp your style. Just make an effort to be extra clear in all your communications. (It's all you can do - and you can only do what you can only do, right?)
If Your Birthday Is Today
TV chef/ writer Giada De Laurentiis (1970) shares your birthday today. You have a fine mind and a droll sense of humor. You're highly imaginative, but also a down-to-earth realist. And you're patient. Friendships are important to you, which is why you are a loyal friend to others. Many of you work at solving mysteries or making discoveries. In the year ahead, you have an opportunity to learn something that will be important to you.
