Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

All your dealings with friends and groups will be unpredictable. No question. That’s because people are excitable today, and this includes you. In addition, you also feel rebellious and will not want to follow anyone else’s commands or suggestions. (You give the orders!)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today a rebellious feeling within you could get you in trouble with bosses, parents, teachers and the police. Don’t be a fool. Do not say anything that you will regret. We both know that once the words have left your mouth — they are out there — and you can never take them back.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Travel plans will suddenly change. Alternatively, you might suddenly have to travel when you least expected to do so. Arguments about touchy subjects might spring up out of the blue. Easy does it. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. (As a clever wordsmith you can skillfully dance around any topic.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Do check your bank accounts and financial details because something unexpected might affect your assets. Assume nothing. Be aware that something could go wrong or an error might be made because whatever happens might cost you money. Stay on top of things.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Things are dicey with partners and close friends. You will be wise to zip thy lip. It’s not worth getting into an argument with someone you care about. (The truth is we fight with our loved ones because the emotional stakes are so high.) Likewise, be prepared for an unexpected zinger from someone else. Patience is your best ally.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Something unexpected or surprising might affect your health today. Likewise, something unexpected might also happen to your pet or your dealings with a pet. Your work routine will definitely be interrupted, hopefully, because of good news or something pleasant. Fingers crossed!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Parents should be extra vigilant today because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Meanwhile, an unexpected invitation to a social event might fall in your lap. Yay! Conversely, social plans might suddenly change or be canceled. Guard against sports accidents.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Small appliances might break down today or minor breakages could occur because something will create an interruption within your family or where you live. Hopefully, it’s minor. Something high tech or related to modern art might be involved.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is an accident-prone day for you. Fortunately, it’s a mild influence; nevertheless, who wants to stub their toe? (Not you.) New faces, new places and new ideas might spring up today.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep an eye on your possessions and your assets today because something unexpected could affect them. You might find money; you might lose money. Something you own might be damaged, lost or stolen. Keep your eyes open for your own good.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today the moon is in your sign at odds with your ruler, unpredictable Uranus. This makes you impatient, impulsive, and excitable. You will be hasty to jump to conclusions and you will crave excitement. This will make you even more rebellious than you already are. (Oh my.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Something going on behind the scenes makes you feel restless today. You’re a bit edgy and distracted. Some kind of emotional unrest might disturb your peace of mind. Fear not, this is a temporary dark cloud on your horizon — nothing serious. Gone by tomorrow, which is a more relaxing day.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor, writer Eugene Levy (1946) shares your birthday. You are insightful, which is why others seek your advice. (You’re a natural leader.) Service to others will be an important theme for you this year, especially within your family. Therefore, take care of yourself so that you can be a strong resource. Meanwhile decide to invest in the relationships that you value. Hang out with quality people.
