Moon Alert

Avoid making important decisions or spending money (except for food) from 6:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. EST today.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Lots of activity going on! You're working hard to get what you want and assert yourself with others. (It's easy to impress people now.) Not everyone can match your enthusiasm. Plus, you're more of a fighter for your own rights than usual. Tread softly and smile a lot.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You have to watch your knee-jerk reactions in the next few weeks. You have a mild case of foot-in-mouth disease, which is really not your style. Ancient programming makes you a bit distrustful. These doubts have no basis in reality. Pay them no heed.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You're high-energy when you're dealing with others now. This is good news if you want to play group sports or enter into any kind of physical activity with others. (Ahem.) However, it can encourage too much competition and tension with a friend. Keep it mellow.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your ambition is definitely aroused now. You've decided it's time to do something out there in the big, wide world. You're going to get your act together and take it on the road. This is good. Others will help you now. Start to seriously focus on what you want to achieve.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your ambitions related to publishing, travel, dealing with foreign countries, the law, and anything connected to the media, are suddenly gritty and growing. You want a slice of that pie. Great. Step one is simply defining your intentions. First the thought, then the word, then the deed.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your gonads are in overdrive. It's going to stay this way for the next few weeks. You feel sexy, attractive and interested! Singles will be bolder and more assertive. (Definitely.) If you're in an existing relationship, enjoy yourself; but don't risk something solid for a mere bon bon.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You're eager to get to work both at home and on your job. In fact, you're happy to do so. Practical matters are easy to tackle. Coworkers are especially agreeable. With all this going for you -- you can accomplish much in the next few weeks! Family discussions are meaningful now.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Short trips, appointments, increased writing, studying, and reading keep you busy. Fortunately, you have the energy and drive to work hard in the next month. (Remember: it's not whether you win or lose -- it's how you look when you're playing.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You feel frisky, flirtatious and playful! You want to have a good time and you're prepared to spend some money to do so. (You know that those people who say money can't buy happiness just don't know where to shop.) Follow up on your moneymaking ideas as well.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Lots of activity takes place at home now. You might be renovating, moving, downsizing, redecorating or putting up with lots of guests who won't go home. Something creates chaos (and possibly tension) at home. Midst all this activity, you will have to be more patient with others.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might be reading more than usual right now. Or possibly writing. Intellectually speaking, you're supercharged. This can make you a tad more aggressive talking to others. You might want to cool your jets a bit. Others could feel overwhelmed by you. (Moi?)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You're in the mood to spend money now. (The devil made me do it.) Fortunately, you're also ready to work hard for your money as well. Your cash is flowing -- possibly hemorrhaging. But this simply galvanizes you into action to make more.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Jim Carrey (b.1962) shares your birthday. You have a natural power: whatever you do, you do it with individual expression. You have a good understanding of the human condition. You know what makes people tick. Because of this you can present yourself forcefully when you choose. Focus on marriage, relationships and social situations this year. Be friendly.
