Moon Alert

After 8:30 a.m. Chicago time, we have the all clear to shop and do business. The new moon is in Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today’s new moon might be the best day all year to think about how you balance work and play. Do you take enough vacations? Do you look for ways to express your creative talents? Are you living the way you might advise someone else to live? Meanwhile, social plans might change.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today’s new moon is your chance to think how to improve your home and also how to improve family relationships. It is worthwhile to invest in family because family is gold. Meanwhile, your home routine will be interrupted, which means stay on your toes.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is an accident-prone day, so pay attention to everything you say and do. However, you might be full of original, creative ideas. Expect to meet new faces and see new places — something fresh and different. Observe your style of communicating to others.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a good day to focus on how you can use your possessions and wealth to better manage your life. For example, if you own more than you need, then you are a victim of your possessions. This is a good day to think of your value system and also about your relationship to the stuff that you own.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might want to rebel against someone in a position of authority. Maybe you feel like Peter Finch in Network? “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!” Or maybe it’s just tough dealing with a parent or boss. Good luck.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You feel restless and rebellious. A wise teacher said the definition of negativity is “Wanting things to be different than the way they are.” It’s very true. I think one can be personally content and still want to see positive changes made in the world.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You have a strong craving for excitement, which is why you might provoke someone. Or you might be upset if someone makes emotional demands upon you? It’s confusing, because usually you don’t like to rock the boat. Hmmm.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Relations with parents, bosses and the police are dicey and unpredictable. If you are hauled up on the carpet, don’t be lippy. Don’t make matters worse. Don’t try to prove anything. Your objective is to get out of hot water — and maybe out of town!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Travel plans might be canceled, interrupted or changed. Or perhaps you suddenly have to travel? Likewise, school schedules might suddenly change, especially colleges, technical schools and universities. Double-check everything to save yourself some time.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Because something unexpected could affect banking, insurance matters or something to do with wills and inheritances or shared property, double-check these areas so you’re not caught asleep at the switch. You might need to catch something in time to avert a loss.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Because you’re hungry for a little excitement, you might provoke someone who is close to you. But is this wise? Not really, because Mars is opposite your sign making conflicts with others easy to erupt. You don’t need this. That is your mantra. You don’t need trouble.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Something about your job or your work routine will be unpredictable. Something will be interrupted. You might miss an appointment or be late for something. Staff shortages, computer crashes, mixed-up occasions might trigger a cascade of events. “Oh no!”

If Your Birthday Is Today

Author J.K. Rowling (1965) shares your birthday. You are friendly and optimistic. You are also creative, inventive and have a marvelous imagination. This is a year of fast action, change and new opportunities! Expect to meet adventure and stimulating situations. You will have chances to travel and expand your world plus learn new things. Embrace change. Let your personal freedom be your goal this year.
