Aries (March 21-April 19)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

*** Today people see you as courageous and confident. Because you seem to understand what is needed in the situation, you might assume the role of leadership in a group. Certainly, you will radiate inner excitement and energy that others will feel.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

**** The prospect of travelling somewhere exciting might make you feel stoked today. Your energy level is high, and you want to do something different. You want adventure! You want to see new places and discover new ideas! You might also be excited by a flirtation with someone "different."

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

*** You'll be confident and strong if you need to defend your position regarding disputes about shared property, inheritances, or anything that is owned jointly with someone else - including debt. This might also relate to costly improvements taking place at home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

**** You might attract someone strong and assertive to you today. In part, this is because you're powerful and persuasive in your communications with others right now. Expect a lively discussion! Fortunately, with Venus in your sign, you're smooth and charming. (We expected no less.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

*** You'll be productive at work today because you're confident, focused and energetic. Actually, any kind of physical labour or exercise will appeal to you today because you have energy being built up within you - and it needs somewhere to go.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

**** You are in touch with your muse today, which is why you will delight at every opportunity to appreciate beauty, and express your artistic talents to others. However, this same influence can also translate into energetic socializing - especially romantic flirtations!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

*** Enjoy your current popularity, especially with younger people. With Venus at the top of your chart, bosses and authority figures will also admire you. (Perhaps romantically?) People want your advice about how to make something look better. Despite all this - today you might choose to hide your talents under a bushel.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

**** You can sell anyone the Brooklyn Bridge today because your optimism, energy and positive dazzle will intrigue others. However, this is also an excellent day to start new projects, especially short-term projects. Your energy is high and you want results!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

**** Today you're willing to work hard to boost your earnings. Perhaps you want to start something new; and convince others to join you in your plans. Your confidence is strong now; and whether you're boosting your income or spending it - you know what you want to achieve.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

**** Today the Moon is in your sign dancing beautifully with fiery Mars, giving you direct, forceful, confidence. People will respect you. You might be a leader of a group? It's a great day to start projects. It's also a wonderful time to use your energy and tackle any venture that requires physical labour.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** You might feel unsettled today because something going on behind the scenes can't be ignored. In fact, the energy is disquieting and distracting to you. Work with what is flowing well for you, and that is your interaction with coworkers. Likewise, your interaction with kids is also excellent!

If Your Birthday Is Today
