Moon Alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Taurus.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today you emotionally identify with your possessions, which can lead to a strong attachment to something. You might feel possessive about it. At a more subtle level, you might find you have to defend yourself about something where there is really nothing at stake? (Whaaat?)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today the moon is in your sign, which improves your luck a tiny bit. However, you might find that you feel more emotional about everything, which can make you demanding. (This is because you feel a stronger need to connect with others today.)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today you’re tempted to withdraw and keep your feelings secretive. You’re not being antisocial; you prefer to be by yourself and enjoy your own privacy. Relations with females might be a tad strained. (You don’t have to socialize if you don’t want to.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Your emotional contact with friends will be important to you today. You might feel a deeper bond with someone? You might also feel more protective to someone or more supportive than usual. This is also a good day to examine your overall goals.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Your professional reputation and business concerns are your focus today. You want to make a good impression on others, and, ironically, you are more in the public eye! Be careful about blurring the distinction between professional and personal relationships with bosses and VIPs.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today you have a strong urge “to get away from all this.” You want to break free from your daily routine and of course, if possible, you want to travel! Study or mental journeys will still be useful, and they will still stimulate you and satisfy your urge for change.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today your emotional experiences about anything will be more intense than usual. In part, this could be because you will attract intense powerful people to you. (“Hi Darth.”) Some of you might feel particularly possessive about property or something that you want to hold on to.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Conflicts with others will be more emotional today because the moon is directly opposite your sign. Therefore, guard against knee-jerk reactions. In fact, don’t just react — give yourself time to actually process things so that you can respond appropriately. (For your own good.)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today you might have to put your own emotional considerations second to the wants and demands of someone else. This doesn’t mean you’re being a martyr; you are simply facing up to duties and obligations that have to be addressed. Oh well. No biggie.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Today you might find that you cannot conceal your feelings from others. Don’t worry about this. (This will be especially obvious in a romantic relationship.) Quite likely, your protective and nurturing instincts will be aroused, which is why you want to take care of someone.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You will enjoy any chance to retire by yourself and bask in a bit of privacy. You need this quiet comfort today. Some of you might cocoon at home, others will seek solitude elsewhere. We all need private time to reflect, regenerate and restore ourselves.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Your communications with others are important to you. This is why you want conversations to be real and not just superficial, polite chitchat. As a result, you might demand that communications get down to a kind of “gut level” of reality. Nevertheless, be aware of the sensitivity of others. You don’t want to drive someone away!
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Kurt Russell (1951) shares your birthday. You are determined and self-motivated. You are also spiritual and open to seeking higher truths. You are entering a year of learning and perhaps teaching. Explore any discipline that helps you get a better understanding of who you are. Invest in your future self. This year will set you in a new direction, which could be crucial for your success next year.
