Moon Alert

Aries (March 21-April 19)

In the next five weeks, you will define your goals and actively pursue them. You will also be more involved in clubs, groups and associations, perhaps competitively. Find a common ground so you can coordinate your needs with the needs of others.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Fiery Mars is at the top of your chart for the next five weeks, arousing your ambition! You will be so gung-ho to succeed, you will do best if you are your own boss, because you just might threaten others who are in power.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You will be attracted to creative intellectual activity in the next month, especially anything that introduces you to new ideas and beliefs. You might find yourself defending your beliefs to someone. Put out energy into expanding your mind because, hey, your mind is your world.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Disputes about shared property, taxes, debt, inheritances and insurance issues will occur in the next five weeks. You will be aggressive. Similarly, you will be aggressive about going after a loan or mortgage, which is a good idea because real estate favors you in 2017.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

For the next five weeks, fiery Mars will oppose your sign, creating tension in your world. It encourages you to face your enemies. It also means you are unwilling to compromise. It also makes you easily annoyed with those who are closest to you. Your only recourse is patience.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will work hard in the next six weeks because, for various reasons, you now take a lot of pride in your work. Naturally, you want credit for what you do, which weakens your interest in group efforts. You won’t be a team player. (But you will accomplish a lot on your own.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A playful time awaits you in the next five weeks! Romance will be prankish and saucy. Flirtations will abound. You will enjoy parties, social diversions, sports events and anything related to the arts. For you, this time is all about play, not work. Oh well.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Increased activity and chaos on the home front will occur in the next five weeks. Unfortunately, all this activity can contribute to domestic strife and arguments, especially if you live with a parent. Think before you speak or act.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’re quite opinionated in the next five weeks because you identify with your beliefs, which makes you argumentative with others, especially siblings, relatives and neighbors. Nevertheless, your aggressive mental stance is good for writing, sales, teaching and acting.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’ll have strong feelings about your money and wealth in the next six weeks. In part, this is because you will identify with your wealth. If you have wealth, you might think you are better than someone who has less. This is a phony illusion. Sorry.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Mars is in your sign for the next five weeks, pumping you with energy and making you quite aggressive. If you need to be aggressive, then this is fortunate indeed. If you don’t, do be careful because you might trigger misunderstandings. Easy does it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Use your Spidey sense in the next month to determine if others are working against your best interests or for your best interests. Basically, you will not know for sure. You have to go by a hunch, a feeling. So, if you think something fishy is going on, it probably is.

Join clubs and organizations. Your social activities will be mutually beneficial.
