Georgia Nicols horoscopes for March 7

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or big decisions from 2:30 a.m. until 1:15 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the Moon moves from Aquarius into Pisces.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Start this week slow because during the morning there is a Moon Alert, which means you can expect delays, goofy mistakes and shortages. In fact, midday, tempers will be short, which means you would be wise to avoid controversial topics. Don’t press anyone’s buttons. (And don’t undo their zippers.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Be aware of the Moon Alert today because while it occurs, it’s a poor time to make decisions about financial matters. In addition, you might quarrel with someone over an inheritance or something that is shared. Let the dust settle before you make a big deal about anything. Relax.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Check the Moon Alert so you know what’s happening. This is not a strong way for anyone to start their week. (This applies to all signs.) Difficulties with authority figures, partners and close friends are likely midday because people are emotionally upset or angry. (Wince.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Avoid discussions or issues about politics, religion and racial matters this morning. Not a good idea! In fact, postpone any kind of important discussion or decision until later in the day. You will also want to be patient with co-workers, especially midday, to avoid a confrontation.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Tread carefully this morning because it’s a Moon Alert. Make no commitments or important decisions. By midday, tempers are frayed; however, as the day wears on, things become more mellow and life gets easier. Remember the advice of Goethe, especially with children: “Correction does much but encouragement does more.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This morning is a good time to play Bureaucracy: Everyone stands in a circle, and the first person to do anything loses. You may laugh but that’s how this morning feels. Be patient with family members and partners, especially midday. Work to keep the peace.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This might be a frustrating day at work, especially in the morning. And by midday, people are frustrated with each other! Fortunately, the afternoon and evening are a great improvement. Ah yes, it’s always darkest before it gets pitch black.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Avoid important decisions, especially financial decisions, this morning. Keep an eye on the Moon Alert. Another thing to avoid is a nasty little argument with someone, which might occur midday, with children or about children. It might also involve a romantic partner.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’re fired up today because Mars is in your sign. Don’t go out on a limb in the morning because there is a Moon Alert, which means you can’t really tell which way the wind is blowing. Be patient with family members midday to avoid an argument.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’re keen to communicate now. You have something you want to say. This morning, during the Moon Alert, is actually a good time for writers, especially fiction writers. You might be exasperated midday, but after that it’s smooth sailing.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid squabbles with others about money and possessions midday today. And definitely avoid important decisions in the morning because there’s a Moon Alert. Wait until the afternoon to really get going. It’s a slow start to this week, that’s all.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

After the Moon Alert today, the Moon will move into your sign. Since one is generally more emotional when the Moon is in his or her sign, be careful! In midday, you might have a hissy fit about something. Keep your head down and your powder dry. This way you will stay out of trouble.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Bryan Cranston (1956) shares your birthday today. You are sensitive and giving. Many of you live in an abstract world, in your mind and your imagination. This year others will benefit you, which is why your success lies with interacting with other people. Therefore, make friends and join clubs and organizations. If you help others, you will also be helping yourself.
