ARIES

(March 21-April 19)
★★★
This is the perfect day to kick back and relax at home or in surroundings that make you feel good. Some of you might choose to work from home. Others will putter around doing something to make your home look more attractive. Tonight: Relax.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)
★★★★
Although this is a poor day to make important decisions, sign documents or volunteer for anything; nevertheless, it’s a great day to schmooze. This is a lighthearted day! Tonight: Be neighborly.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)
★★★
Today is full of contradictions. You’re interested in finances, cash flow and shopping. However, because it’s a Moon Alert all day, these are the things you should avoid. Instead, do your re-search and be ready to act tomorrow. Tonight: Check your money.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)
★★★★
Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with fair Venus, making you want to interact warmly with everyone. You’ll be charming and diplomatic. Others will seek out your company. Nevertheless, be aware that it’s a Moon Alert all day! Tonight: You’re strong.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★
Today you’re drawn to gatherings and keeping up with what some friends are doing. This might make you tempted to spend money. Try to restrict your spending to food and gas. (See the Moon Alert.) Tonight: Solitude.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★★
Today you’ll enjoy schmoozing with others, perhaps a female friend or colleague. Discussions about future goals might arise. Explore any idea that interests you, but commit to nothing until tomorrow. Tonight: You’re popular.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
You’re high-viz today, which is fortunate, because you make an excellent impression on everyone. Explore topics and get your information, but wait until tomorrow to act. Today is a poor day for decisions. Tonight: You’re noticed.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★★
You’re hungry for adventure! Travel. Explore your own city if you can’t take a short trip. If you learn something new, it will stimulate you. Restrict spending to food and gas because today is a Moon Alert. Tonight: Do something different.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★
Be careful, because the Sun, the Moon and Mercury retrograde are in one of your Money Houses, tempting you to do financial negotiations. This would be a poor idea because today is a Moon Alert all day. Tonight: Check paperwork.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★★
This is a tricky day because both the Sun and the Moon are opposite your sign, which means you have to be accommodating. Avoid important decisions because of the Moon Alert. Restrict spending to food and gas. Tonight: Cooperate.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★
Your attempt to be efficient in whatever you do might be eroded by Mercury retrograde. Just accept what’s happening and go at a more leisurely pace. Double-check your work. Tonight: Work.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★★
Artistic people can make art today because it will be easy to think outside the box. Social occasions and fun schmoozing will please you. Enjoy fun times with kids as well as romantic outings. It’s a Moon Alert all day. Tonight: Play.
