Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 2:30 to 5 a.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Virgo into Libra.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Avoid hasty decisions. Don’t jump into a situation without thinking because you might be confused. If you are confused, acknowledge this. The wiser move would be to hesitate. (Did you know that the origin of the word scruples meant “to hesitate”?)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Tread carefully when dealing with financial matters because things might not unfold as you expect. A friend or a member of a group might not be completely honest or open with their information. Postpone important financial expenditures.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Mars is in your sign, as it will be for the rest of year; however, today it is at odds with fuzzy Neptune. This has the effect of taking the wind out of your sails. You might feel discouraged about something. You might doubt your abilities to do something. Actually, this is the perfect day to take a nap.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
This is a classic day to feel second doubts about something. You might doubt a situation; you might doubt another person; you might doubt yourself. If you feel somewhat paralyzed and unable to act, listen to this. Be smart and do nothing.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
If you have second doubts about leading a group of people, or urging someone to do something, listen to that little voice on your shoulder. You might want to rethink things. Alternatively, if someone suggests something to you that makes you feel hesitant — again —listen to that voice on your shoulder.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today you might question someone’s leadership, or question the instructions of a parent, boss, teacher or a member of the police. Obviously, you don’t want to get into hot water; but it might be foolish to follow directions that are questionable. Tough call.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
When it comes to travel plans or ideas related to publishing, the media, medicine or something to do with legal matters, postpone actions if you can. That is because today things are in a state of flux, with too much confusion and a lack of direction.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Postpone important decisions about shared property, taxes, inheritances and insurance issues because things are unclear. Furthermore, you are not in the position to defend yourself as well as you might be able to on other days. Timing is everything.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You have to cut others some slack, especially partners and close friends, because things are confusing, and this confusion can make you judgmental. You might accuse someone of letting the team down. Or accuse them of something. Be forgiving.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Don’t be hard on yourself if you feel confused at work or confused about doing whatever you’re doing. You might work in fits and starts. Or you might feel too lazy to tackle anything. This is because the energy for everyone today is sluggish.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
If you’re involved in sports today or dealing with kids, don’t be surprised if your energy is flagging. You might feel confused about what is expected of you. This is what’s happening — it’s not your fault. Get as much done as you can but go gently.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This is not the day to shove the furniture around at home or make big decisions. Lower your expectations. Don’t try to do too much because you don’t have the juice for it. Furthermore, family discussions will be a bit lame. Poor day for important actions.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Allison Janney (1959) shares your birthday. You are a natural leader. You are confident, friendly and very much an independent thinker. You exude strength, and you have opinions. This year is the end of a nine-year cycle for you, which means it is appropriate to let go of people, places and things that are holding you back from your positive future.
