Horoscope for Friday, Oct. 30, 2020

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Aries into Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are fast-thinking and clever. Use these abilities to be smooth and diplomatic so that you can ease tension dealing with partners, close friends, parents and bosses. Perhaps some angst left over from yesterday requires kid gloves today?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

People feel a bit delicate, which is why it’s a poor day to introduce sensitive subjects and, certainly, not controversial ones. Steer clear of anything touchy. With the sun opposite your sign, it behooves you to be accommodating. (Don’t stir the pot.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Be gracious and patient. The misunderstandings with romantic partners, children and friends, especially about the cost of something, might arise. Don’t even go there. It’s Friday and you deserve to have a pleasant end to your week. More champagne?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Because of the heated arguments of yesterday, things might still be frosty today, especially with parents, bosses, family members and partners. (Yikes, that’s almost everyone.) Offer someone a tasty treat. Decide to make this a pleasant Friday.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Although heated arguments might have taken place yesterday, be wise and let bygones be bygones because it’s the end of the week, and who needs more angst? Not you! Minimize strained relations with others, especially at work. Be warm and friendly.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Steer clear of disputes about possessions, money and differing values because it’s the end of the week, so why harp on differences with others? Let’s bury the hatchet somewhere where no one can find it again. Negative energy is so draining — and pointless.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be accommodating and patient with others today because the moon is still opposite your sign. Admittedly, it opposes Mercury retrograde in your sign, which is why old problems might still niggle you. Be big. Be large! Let these problems go. Forward and onward!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Even though this is a strong time for you because the sun is in your sign, the negative energy from yesterday’s arguments might still be drifting around. You can feel it. Note: Do not fuel it. In fact, turn your back and decide to get along with everyone. Much easier!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Although there might be some residual tension left over from difficulties that took place yesterday dealing with friends or members of groups, try not to focus on this today. You might also feel a financial squeeze, especially making social plans. Cope as best you can.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Difficulties that occurred yesterday between parents, bosses and family members might still be simmering today. Nevertheless, look for ways to go forward with a positive attitude for your own benefit so that you can enjoy this day. After all, life is short — and fat.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Arguments and disagreements with others about a myriad of subjects have been taking place lately. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.) Therefore, sit up and be a person. It’s time to let these irritations go, for your own good. It’s Friday. You want to be happy. You want to enjoy your day! Simple as that.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Regardless of the recent tensions and squabbles about money and possessions, let this go. It’s the end of the week, and you want to sail into this weekend with a positive attitude and a warm feeling in your tummy, right? Tomorrow is the full moon — a day with lots of surprises! Enjoy yourself.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Janel Parrish (1988) shares your birthday. Although you appear calm, cool and collected, inwardly, you burn with passionate fire. Wonderful news! This is your time of harvest, when you will start to reap the benefits of the seeds that you planted in the last decade. You deserve this time of success! As a result, you might enjoy increased influence and leadership in all your relationships.
