Horoscope for Thursday, Jan. 9, 2020

Moon Alert

We have the all clear to shop and do business. The moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Something unusual will affect your home and family. Hopefully, pleasant. Admittedly, small appliances could break down or minor breakages might occur. Perhaps a family member has exciting news or a surprise guest drops by? (Stock the fridge.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today is full of impulses, detours, twists and turns! You might take an unexpected trip. You might hear new that is exciting or meet new people who are different? One thing is certain — this is not a boring day!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Keep an eye on your money because something unexpected could affect your assets. You might find money or you might lose money. Be smart and check your bank balances. Likewise, protect your belongings from theft, damage or loss.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

The moon is in your sign dancing with wild, wacky Uranus. This is why you want to shake things up a bit. You’re restless! You might meet a new and exciting acquaintance or an old friend might pop up in your life? New technology and a chance to see new ways of thinking will appeal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a restless day because you have that feeling something is going to happen. Maybe it will, maybe it won’t. It’s an emotional feeling. However, because of this sense of expectancy, you will notice new things in your surroundings and relate to others in a fresh way. “Boris!” Natasha!”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you might meet someone who is different in some way. Whatever the case, this person will be intriguing to you. Or perhaps someone you already know will say or do something that surprises you? This also applies to groups to which you belong. (Not a boring day!)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A conversation with a boss, parent, or someone in the police might surprise you or catch you off guard. Do not overreact. Don’t quit your day job. Give yourself a chance to process whatever has just happened and be cool. Guard against knee-jerk reactions.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Travel plans will be canceled, changed or delayed. Alternatively, you might suddenly have to travel when you didn’t think you would do so. New, unusual ideas that expand your mind will appeal because you’re keen to learn something, especially high tech or mind expanding.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

It might be wise to check your bank accounts and anything to do with wills, inheritances, insurance matters and shared property because you might overlook something. Or perhaps something you least expected has occurred?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

A close friend or partner might say or do something that catches you off guard. They might want to change the relationship in some way? It could be very minor or it could be major. Be aware that this suggestion is probably a fleeting impulse; therefore, wait a day or two to take it seriously.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Do your best to stay on top of things at work today because something out of the blue will send things sideways in a New York minute. Computer crashes, power outages, fire drills, staff shortages, misplaced paperwork are just some examples. Fortunately, whatever happens will be minor — but it will happen.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Parents should be extra vigilant. Keep an eye on your kids because this is an accident-prone day for them. Meanwhile, a surprise invitation might come your way! If so, say yes because this window of opportunity will be brief. Romance will also bring surprises and unexpected flirtations. Woot!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (1982) shares your birthday. You are confident, generous and practical. You are also both tender-hearted and tough. Your resilience and ambition will bring you success. This is a year of change, new opportunities! Expect to encounter adventure and stimulating situations. Grab every chance to travel and expand your world through learning new things. Embrace change! Let your personal freedom be your goal this year.
