Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or big decisions from 6:15 a.m. to 8 a.m. Chicago time. After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
In discussions with others about shared property, inheritances or insurance, you might be short-tempered today. (“Moi?” Yes, you.) That’s because the Moon is lined up with your ruler Mars. Do not be hasty about financial arrangements today. Think first.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You will have to be patient more than usual dealing with partners and close friends today because everyone is a bit short-tempered and champing at the bit. If someone bites at you, don’t overreact. It is what it is. Fortunately, this influence is brief! You can be right or you can be in the relationship.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You’re forceful and a bit bossy at work today. Remember what your objective is and don’t let your ego get too involved. Resist the urge to be impatient, impulsive and off-the-cuff. Take a moment to think things through. Remember the wise carpenter: Measure twice; cut once.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
You’re in a playful mood today! You’ve been working hard and today you would love a breather or at least a fun diversion! Sports, the arts, a romantic date or a fun get-together with a friend will appeal. Be patient with children because they might test you today.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Vacations and social diversions have been tops on your menu lately, which is why today you want to hunker down at home and cocoon a bit. Nevertheless, you might be impatient with a family member. What’s the upside to that? Exactly.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You will be forceful and direct in all your communications today. Be careful driving because you might be impatient, and this could lead to an accident. (On the other hand, he who hesitates is miles from the next exit.) Apply some self-discipline and control to everything you say and do.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Caution against the impulse spending today. Likewise, you might jump too quickly at a financial arrangement. Take a moment to give yourself a second sober thought. Think things through. And think with your brain — not your emotional impulses. Be smart.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Today the Moon is in your sign lined up with fiery Mars. This can make you easily irritated with others. It can also make you act impulsively or suddenly give into an outburst of anger. On the other hand, it can also make you courageous and brave — qualities you have in abundance.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You might be irritated at someone today but you are not going to let on. (Like that ever works.) Nevertheless, you have to hide your aggression today for some reason. Actually, why not channel this pent-up energy into something useful for yourself?
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Lately, you feel competitive with a friend or perhaps a member of a group. And today, you might feel downright irritated. The wise move is to let this temporary energy flow on by. Don’t be seduced by it because you will only end up saying something you regret.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You feel ambitious and gung-ho about certain issues today, which is why you won’t hesitate to give your opinion to bosses, parents and VIPs. But there are several ways of giving opinions, especially to authority figures? Remember what your objective is.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Feelings of escapism are strong today. You want to get away from all this — now! Definitely avoid controversial subjects because disagreements with others could become volatile arguments. Stay chill.
