Horoscope for Wednesday, April 3, 2019

Moon Alert

Caution: Avoid shopping or big decisions from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Pisces to Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Be careful because most of this day is a Moon Alert. In addition, the moon is at odds with Jupiter, which is a nice “feel-good” influence, but it also makes you want to go overboard and be extravagant emotionally and practically.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a wonderful day to hang out with others and enjoy their company. Meet friends for lunch or Happy Hour. Enjoy interacting with people if you are attending meetings, classes, conferences or little get-togethers. Warning: During the Moon Alert, agree to nothing important.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You will interact with parents, bosses and VIPs today, therefore, be aware this is a poor day to volunteer for anything or to agree to anything important because of the Moon Alert. (See above.) Be careful of biting off more than you can chew, which you’re tempted to do!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Resist the temptation to make travel plans today (see Moon Alert above). Be careful not to go overboard in discussions about race, politics or religion. Today emotions are bigger than life, which is why people will fight hard to defend them.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Although you are focused on taxes, debt, wills and inheritances today — this is a poor day to do anything important or sign papers. Do your homework but defer important decisions until tomorrow. This is for your own protection. (Doesn’t that sound like you’re about to get a vaccination?)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Be cooperative with others because the moon is opposite your sign for most of today. Even though you might be in an easy agreement with someone, this does not mean you should agree to anything important. Don’t go overboard in any way.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Relations with co-workers are good today. Keep to your regular schedule; don’t try anything different. Don’t introduce new ideas. Don’t get carried away with work-related travel plans. Easy does it because there is a Moon Alert for most of today.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a wonderful day to be creative. It’s also a great day to party and enjoy the company of others! Enjoy sports events, playful activities with children and romantic get-togethers. Restrict spending to gas, food and entertainment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a good day to entertain at home. It’s also great day for family discussions. Don’t lend or borrow money today, and restrict your own spending to food, gas and entertaining diversions. Stock the fridge! Company’s coming!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your daily plans might be delayed, or they could go off the rails because most of today is a Moon Alert. This is a creative day because you can think outside of the box; nevertheless, it’s a loosey-goosey day, especially if you’re trying to stick to a plan. Make no promises today. Wait until tomorrow.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Restrict your spending to food, gas and entertainment today. Postpone important financial deals until tomorrow because today you might go overboard and later regret it. Pull in your reins a little and resist excess. (That’s when you’ve gone past reasonable.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today the moon is in your sign, and for most of this day it’s a Moon Alert. On the whole, it’s a feel-good day and you will enjoy schmoozing with others. You will also be in touch with your creative muse. However, it’s a poor day to spend money on anything other than food, gas and entertainment.
