The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
** Tread carefully when talking to family members, especially female relatives as well as partners, spouses and close friends because confusion is rampant today. It's easy to misunderstand someone. It's also easy to innocently mislead someone. Yes, it's that kinda day.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
*** When talking to others about work, health or a pet, be extra clear in your communications because Neptune can create confusion in conversations today. Family discussions, especially about home repairs might take place today. Keep things clear!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
*** This is a poor day to make financial decisions because the Moon is in your Money House today, and it is at odds with both Venus and Neptune. If you feel tempted to buy something luxurious, beautiful or artistic -- clothing, jewelry or art objects -- think twice! Wait until tomorrow.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
** If you're talking to parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs or the police today take extra care to clarify what you mean. Furthermore, make sure you know what they require of you or what they are saying. This is because confusion and misinterpretations are likely today -- especially with authority figures.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
*** This is a tricky day because the Sun, Jupiter and chatty Mercury are all in your sign, which means you're eager to communicate to others. However, something going on behind the scenes, and possibly something you're not aware of, could create misunderstandings. Be careful about what you say.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
*** Because there's a strong possibility for confusion about financial transactions and discussions about money and shared property, you might be wise to delay these exchanges until tomorrow. You can't believe everything you hear today because you might also misinterpret something.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
** You love beautiful things and harmonious relationships. These are good reasons to be careful shopping today because you might go overboard buying something that you will later regret. Likewise, discussions with authority figures and friends might be confusing.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
*** Don't overreact if you think you're dealing with a passive-aggressive situation with someone. Confused communications are happening everywhere today. For the most part, people might be innocent due to be misinformation or not enough information. Stay cool.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
*** Discussions with friends, groups or your kids might require money, funding or using someone else's property. If so, be careful to get permission and that no assumptions are made. It's easy to be confused today. This could lead to a problem that you don't want. Make sure everyone is on the same page.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
** Discussions with parents, bosses and authority figures might be strained today. This could be because of a confusion happening with a family member, spouse or partner. Someone might make assumptions that are wrong; or they might misunderstand someone else? Be clear in all your communications.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
*** Avoid controversial subjects today because misunderstandings could make people riled up when there's no need for this to happen. The problem is that there's a strong potential for confusion that is prevalent everywhere today. Pull in your reins and tread carefully. Stay on good terms with others.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
*** Be very clear talking to your kids today. Likewise, romantic partners should be clear with each other to avoid misunderstandings that create hurt feelings and disappointments. Also be clear about financial matters. If shopping, get a receipt and think twice before you spend your hard-earned money.
