Georgia Nicols horoscopes for Sept. 17, 2016

Moon Alert

We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The Moon is in Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Sudden opportunities to travel might fall in your lap today. In any event, you are impulsive and full of desires to explore more of the world and discover adventure. You’re keen to learn something new and exciting! Let the games begin!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Excited disputes about shared property, inheritances and shared responsibilities might occur today. People don’t want others telling them what to do today because everyone feels feisty, headstrong and independent, including you. Oy!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Squabbles with partners or close friends might break out today because everyone is so opinionated! Furthermore, you might attract someone to you who is headstrong and pushy. “Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!” Don’t add fuel to this fire. Be low key.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might be bossy with others today because you want things done quickly. Be careful because confused communications dog your steps now due to Mercury retrograde. Try to give things a sober second thought so that everything is done right the first time.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Surprise invitations to social events will juice your day. Sports events will also have surprise results. Be careful because this is an accident-prone day in sports. It’s also an accident-prone day for your kids, so be vigilant. Think before you act or say anything to avoid ending up with egg on your face. (Ketchup helps.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Something unexpected might take place at home today. Certainly increased activity and chaos will set the stage for a surprise. Small appliances might break down; minor breakages could occur. Someone unexpected might knock on your door.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re keen to enlighten someone about something today, which is why you are bursting with ideas. Keep your head on your shoulders because this jumpy energy can create accidents both verbal or physical. (“Did I just say that?”) Write down your brilliant ideas.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Don’t be rash with your money today (which you will be tempted to do). Impulse spending and rash ideas that are intended to boost your earnings might get you in trouble. If shopping, keep your receipts. Double check details because it’s easy to overlook things today.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today you are excited with new activities, new encounters with others and all kinds of unexpected events taking place around you. You also have the courage to break free of any kind of inhibitions and restrictions, which is why you feel excited about your future.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Something going on behind the scenes will catch you off guard today. Just be aware of this because forewarned is forearmed. You might want to give yourself a little extra time so that you have the wiggle room to cope with what you didn’t see coming. Some surprises are due to the fact that others are acting impulsively and spontaneously.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you might suddenly change your mind about something and go off in a new direction. This could be because someone persuades you to do this or it just occurs to on your own. A sudden squabble with a friend might take place. If so, make sure you listen to the other party.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You have been toying with a number of ambitious ideas lately, and today, you just might act on one of them. In addition, something unexpected related to bosses and parents might require your attention. Guard against snap judgments and instant decisions. Make sure you know what you’re doing before you act.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Interior designer/TV host Nate Berkus (1971) shares your birthday today. You are detail-oriented, resourceful and inventive. You are also compassionate and trustworthy. Great news! You are now heading into one of the most powerful years of your life, a time of accumulation. Think before you speak. Whatever you have done in the past will now ripen because it’s your time of fruition. (This is a good year to buy and sell.)
