Aries (March 21-April 19)
**** This is a tricky day. Admittedly, you might feel cut off from others or a bit isolated; nevertheless, clever, innovative ideas might come to you. The result of this is that you might influence a group or a friend in a positive way. They might even see you as their leader, or their Pied Piper.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
*** This is another, positive day but you are best served by being more low-key. Enjoy the comfort of your home. Work alone or behind the scenes. Even then, you might be surprised or caught off guard by something unexpected. Fortunately, communications with others are upbeat and optimistic!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
**** An older friend or perhaps someone in a position of authority in a group might catch you off guard today. No worries because certainly, your financials position is secure right now. In fact, you're sitting pretty. Many of you are getting richer! You are also spending money on fun stuff.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
**** Be aware that someone in a position of authority (including the police) might do something that surprises you today. "Busted!" However, it might be, "You're hired!" (Could be anything.) But do be aware. Meanwhile, with Venus and Jupiter in your sign, everyone sees you as charming and popular.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
**** It's such a relief that Mercury is no longer retrograde in your sign. This is why you feel energized and ready to accomplish so much. You also feel keen to talk to others. Meanwhile, something in the media, or related to religion, philosophy or publishing might surprise you. Stay tuned.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
*** Be careful with financial transactions today including banking or dealing with mortgages and loans. Something unexpected could impact these areas, so be on the alert and do your homework. On the upside, you might receive a windfall. Clarify everything to do with shared responsibilities.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
*** Relations with partners and close friends might be strained today. Nevertheless, someone might also surprise you with an unexpected proposal, or they'll do something you didn't expect. The fact is -- many of us will have sudden urges and compulsions today. That's how this day rolls.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
**** Your communication skills with authority figures are excellent. Likewise, issues related to publishing, medicine, the law and higher education will favour you. However, something unexpected might impact your job today. This might be due to an obsession or compulsive behaviour on someone's part.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
***** Social plans, sports events and activities related to kids might involve increased responsibilities today. They might also be the source of a surprise. Expect good results from teamwork with the entertainment world and social outings. (Parents should be vigilant about their kids.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
**** When dealing with family issues today, someone might have impulsive ideas. In fact, this might catch you off guard. Fortunately, support and approval from partners and close friends will help you. Good day to recycle and get rid of what you don't need.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
*** Relations with coworkers, partners and close friends are excellent today. Nevertheless, this is a mildly accident-prone day, so be careful. Clever ideas might be blocked by someone older who resists change, whereas you were born 50 years ahead of your time.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
**** This is a lovely day to socialize! Accept invitations for coffee, breakfast, lunch, Happy Hour - whatever comes your way. Be mindful of how you spend money today. Compulsions might trigger unusual purchases. Protect what you own.
If Your Birthday Is Today
