Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions until after 9:30 a.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Leo into Virgo.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You want to work hard and be efficient. This admirable desire might extend to your health as well, which is why you want to eat better and feel better. Because you’re keen to improve things, anyone or anything that gets in your way will irk you. Easy does it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You’re in a playful mood! Many of you are also in a flirtatious mood, as well. (Wink, wink.) Enjoy socializing with others. Accept invitations to party, travel and meet new people. Sports events and playful activities with children will also appeal.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You’re happy to hunker down at home if you have a chance. You want to relax in the privacy of familiar surroundings. You might even take a nap. A family discussion with a female relative could be significant. Clear up old business about shared property and inheritances.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today you have a strong urge to enlighten someone about your ideas. Some of you will teach, write or study more. Enjoy conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbors because you need the stimulation of talking to someone. Yada, yada, yada.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You have a strong attachment for something you own. Or perhaps you feel you have to defend yourself about something, even though there’s really nothing much at stake? This is because you’re clinging to your values and your possessions. (It’s a fleeting thing.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
The moon is in your sign, which will heighten your emotional responses to others. (Stay chill.) However, it will also slightly increase your good luck compared to all the other signs, which is why today is the day to ask the universe for a favor!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
If you can maneuver things to get some privacy, or work alone or behind the scenes, this will make you happy. Today you want to withdraw and keep your feelings to yourself, which is why you don’t feel much like socializing. Hey, no biggie.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Today you want to schmooze with others, particularly female colleagues. You want to share your ideas, especially your goals for the future. Why not bounce your ideas off someone to get their feedback? Friends are important to you.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
People notice you today, whether you are aware of this or not. In fact, some of them seem to know personal details about your private life. Do be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control. One can’t be too careful.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Try to do something different today to satisfy your urge for a little adventure. You feel restless and eager to learn something new or talk to someone who is different. If you can travel or take a trip, that would be perfect. (Even a short trip.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
One of the greatest illusions is the happiness of others. We often think others are happy or they have their life together, which is why we might envy them or we feel personally diminished. You may feel these things today, which is why you’re focused on what others own.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Conflict with others will be much more emotional because the moon is opposite your sign. Ideally, listen carefully to someone today, and be willing to compromise or go more than halfway to meet them. In two weeks, when the moon is in your sign, they can go more than halfway to meet you.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Singer, songwriter Rod Stewart (1945) shares your birthday. You have a winning personality, which makes people like you. You are compassionate and have humanitarian instincts. You have a stoic mask and hide your deepest feelings. This year is the final year of a nine-year cycle, which means it’s time to let go of whatever is holding you back.
