Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 8 to 845 a.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Stick with the facts today. Stick with what is real because it’s easy to bite off more than you can chew. Meanwhile, know that you are high visibility. People notice you more than usual. (In fact, some are discussing personal details about your private life.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Be cautious in financial discussions. Don’t give away the farm. Make sure you have your facts before you agree to anything important. Later in the day, you will want to escape somewhere or do something different. You want some adventure!
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Don’t be too aggressive when dealing with partners and close friends, which you might be tempted to do. You might want to take over a situation or run the show. Make sure that others have input, and that they agree with what’s going on before you take over.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You will get a lot done because you’re enthusiastic about something. Nevertheless, go slowly and don’t expect too much. For starters, the moon is opposite your sign, which means you have to cooperate. You have to go more than halfway when dealing with others.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You want to get things done today! You have a To Do list, either written down somewhere in your head. (Lists generally promote productivity.) Accept the help of others but be careful that their input doesn’t sweep you away or take over a situation. Stay in control.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You want to have fun today! This is why you will make an effort to socialize with others, or see sports events, or enjoy playful activities with kids. If you can express your creative talents, this will please you. Lighten up and enjoy your day!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You might feel better by keeping a low profile today and hunkering down at home. Nevertheless, shopping and money issues are on your mind. Ironically, part of you wants to travel and blow town. You have to resolve these different impulses. (It was ever thus.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
This is a powerful time for you with the sun, Mercury and Venus in your sign. Not only are you are empowered, you feel unusually social and eager to talk to others. Short trips, visits and errands will be the perfect stimulation for you. Go, go, go!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Do not overestimate something today. Don’t make promises that you can’t keep, especially to partners and close friends. Focus on financial matters today, especially how they affect home and family. The important thing is to stay in the present and stay real.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Your feelings might be heightened today because the moon is in your sign. However, this also means that your good fortune is slightly improved. Oh yes, things will tend to go your way. Why not ask the universe for a favor? Enjoy the company of younger, creative people.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You are high visibility, and you look wonderful in the eyes of others, especially authority figures. This means you can ask for what you want or do something to promote your agenda. Having said that, you might want to wait because you feel a bit reclusive today. That’s OK.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
A conversation with a female acquaintance could be important to you today. Possibly, it will make you think of new goals or modify your existing goals. Certainly, you’re interested in learning and expanding your world, especially through travel or further education. So many possibilities!
