Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Tread carefully because your ruler Mars is in your sign (for the rest of the year), and today it challenges Pluto. At its best, you can use today’s energy to make improvements in your immediate environment. At its worst, you’ll be at loggerheads with someone. Oops!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You might be unhappy about something. If so, you might not voice your concerns. Instead you might quietly nurse them in a personal, seething way. (Could be milder.) You’ve had it with rules and regulations and the opinions of others.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

There’s a strong chance that you are at odds with a group. Or perhaps with a member of a group? Some might feel this way with a particular friend. You cannot reconcile things. It’s a Mexican standoff. Perhaps you have to agree to disagree?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your ambition is aroused and you have been trying to achieve something this year. But it seems as if obstacles or people — even those who are close to you — block your intentions. Like, what’s with that? This happens to all of us in life at different times. Don’t get your belly in a rash.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Issues about race, politics and religion are difficult to deal with because you’re up against opposition. That’s why these issues are tricky. It’s wise to remember that all people are more alike than they are not. Everyone wants to be happy. Nobody wants to be miserable.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Disputes about shared property, wills, estates and insurance issues might come to a head today. There’s a strong chance these disputes won’t be resolved until December or January. You just have to live with what is. The refusal to live with what is creates unhappiness.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re an excellent debater; nevertheless, you don’t like fighting with others. Do your best to avoid a confrontation with a partner or close friend today, because it might happen. Remind yourself that you can be right, or you could be in the relationship. It’s your choice.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Avoid a power struggle with someone at work or perhaps about a pet or even your health. It’s very easy to do this today. The secret is not to take the bait. If you are challenged, step aside. “A lot of men didn’t and a lot of men died.” (Sixteen tons.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Avoid power struggles with your kids today; likewise, romantic partners should avoid power struggles with each other because what will they accomplish? Definitely avoid the temptation to be ruthless or underhanded because it will backfire. You can’t win ‘em all.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Some kind of ego battle might take place at home today or with a family member. It could be mild — it could be not so mild. The thing to do is to remember what your long-term objective is. You want to get along with family members. You want harmony at home. Remember this.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might have a clash with a friend or a group today. You often get excited about issues and take them seriously, especially if they involve groups to which you belong. Sometimes you have to lose the battle to win the war. Avoid dangerous places today.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Money squabbles might be something you have to deal with today. Or it could be a power struggle about money or something that you own? Quite likely, this tension will not benefit you. Please note: Avoid dangerous places and anything potentially violent.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Organizing expert Marie Kondo (1984) shares your birthday today. You are empathetic and caring for others, which is why people sometimes depend on you. This is an exciting year of change and new opportunities! You will encounter adventure and stimulating situations. If possible, explore opportunities to travel and expand your world through learning. Welcome change! Let your personal freedom be your goal this year.
