Georgia Nicols horoscopes for Oct. 29, 2016

Moon Alert

Caution: Avoid shopping or big decisions from 5 a.m. until 9:15 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Relations with others are stifled or held back today in an emotional sense. This could be a reaction to whatever occurred yesterday. Or it might be because of a dispute with an authority figure. It might also be because someone thinks you are too ambitious right now. Perhaps they feel threatened?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

In all financial discussions, especially about shared property or inheritances, you will be conservative and reserved. You don’t want things to change and you want to be cautious. Someone at work might challenge a budget decision. Things are more serious today.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Relations with partners and close friends are not as friendly as they might be because someone (it could be you or it could be someone else) is a bit withdrawn and cold. Perhaps this is why arguments with kids and romantic partners are likely. Oy vey.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Relations with co-workers are strained or perhaps just reserved today. People are not particularly friendly. Meanwhile, you might have disputes with a family member or partner. It’s just one of those days. Sports and social activities might be a fun escape.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Romance is on the skids today because people are not affectionate or willing to express their feelings. The minute one person holds back, then the other one does likewise and, before you know it, you’re both sitting in a freezer. What fun. Avoid arguments with siblings, neighbors and co-workers today. (Find someone else to fight with.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Squabbles about money and possessions are likely today. This could involve your kids or a romantic partner or a dispute about a social occasion. What makes matters worse is that your home situation is a bit clouded today. A short trip might be a relief.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might be worried today. Worry is actually a habit. Remember: “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.” Perhaps arguments with someone at home are getting you down. You need peace and harmony in your environment.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’re worried about money, cash flow and paying your bills. This could be why you get into an argument with someone today. The root of it is your own anxiety. (When you’re happy, you don’t argue with others.) Things are going to be fine because later this year, moneybags Jupiter enters Scorpio!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today you feel restrained when talking to others. It’s not easy to be friendly. In fact, you might have to say goodbye to someone today or face a temporary separation. Perhaps this is because of a dispute with a friend, or perhaps the dispute is the result?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be careful talking to female authority figures like moms. Don’t get involved in quarrels or disputes because they will just bring you down. People are unwilling to compromise today. Everyone is involved in their own little world. It happens.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid controversial subjects today like politics, religion and race issues because they will become arguments. Essentially, people aren’t friendly today. They’re uptight. Meanwhile, you have to watch your step.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Avoid arguments about shared possessions, inheritances and financial matters because they will depress you. Even your relations with bosses and parents are stiff and restrained today. If you can travel or break free in some other way, do so because you need a change of scenery!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Author Lee Child (1954) shares your birthday today. You are forever youthful and charismatic. You are also kind, sociable, thoughtful and sometimes shy. The year 2017 will begin quietly, which is why you might not see major changes until 2018; however, it will be a year of growth, construction and building. Do what you can to reduce your debt and strengthen your financial position because you are building for your future!
