CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
★★★

LEO

VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
Because your emotional experiences are more intense than usual, this might be reflected in your encounters with others.

LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★
You might have to put your own emotional considerations second to those of someone else today. Don’t worry; you’re not being a martyr. This is just what’s happening. Meanwhile, take a moment to focus on your health and what you might do to improve your it. Ideas? Tonight: Get better organized.

AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★★
Today you feel a strong need to talk to others because you have something you want to say. The key is you have to find someone who is willing to listen to you, genuinely and sincerely. In other words, you don’t want to simply chat with someone about something inconsequential. Tonight: Discussions.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★
It’s easy to identify with your possessions today, which is why you might feel more possessive than usual about something. For example, perhaps you don’t want to lend something to someone. Check the Moon Alert before spending money today. Tonight: Check your belongings.
