Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 4 p.m. until 11 p.m. EDT today. The Moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

If you're confused about handling money today -- don't act. There might also be some confusion at your job or about how you earn your money. Wait until later in the week (probably Thursday) to assert yourself about financial stuff.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Conversations with bosses, parents, teachers and authority figures in your life are bit confusing. You're not sure what they want. They're not be sure what you're saying. In fact, you might not know what you really want to say to them. (Politely, that is.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This week starts out with feelings of self-doubt. If somebody else isn't second-guessing you, then you are. This is so anti-productive, and yet so seductive! ("I hate me, I hate me not; I hate me, I hate me not.") Don't worry -- the rest of this week gets better.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

A friend is confusing. You're not sure what this person is saying or what they want. (This could go both ways.) This confusion could also apply to a group you're involved with. It might even apply to your goals. (Shee!) Therefore, just coast until you really know what the score is.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You feel indecisive about the direction your life is going. This could be due to vague communications with bosses or parents. Don't worry about this. For one thing, this confusion is extremely brief. Secondly, keep things simple this year while Saturn is in your sign.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Travel plans and matters connected with publishing, the media and higher education are delayed, confused or suddenly very indefinite. You feel like you're in limbo. Virgo's don't like to be in limbo: they rely on logic. Don't make any important decisions today. (Ya think?)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You feel vaguely worried and a bit wishy-washy about matters connected with insurance, debt, taxes and shared property. There's been a lot of procrastination going on here -- right? (Oh well, procrastination is better than giving up entirely.) Don't beat yourself up about anything.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is not an ideal day for important discussions with partners and close friends. No matter how much you want to discuss an issue and get things going in the direction you want -- hold off. Conversations today are like two ships passing in the night. "Can you hear me now?"

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Don't be aggressive with coworkers today. It could backfire. (When I end up with egg on my face I find the ketchup helps.) The problem is that conversations tend to be vague or confusing. Furthermore, people are indecisive. They might say one thing -- then change their mind. Just take it easy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be careful with financial speculation and gambling today. You might think you have a sure thing -- and you don't. It's very easy to misread signals today. This same confusion applies to all the creative arts, show business, sports and working with children. Romance is also a crapshoot. Oy vay!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is not an ideal day to discuss domestic arrangements, make changes within your family dynamic, or even do real estate deals. These are areas that are definitely subject to confusion. Conversations with parents are circular and frustrating. (Who needs this?)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This a mildly accident-prone day today both verbally and physically. It's not a good day to sign contracts and do important deals. It might also be bit difficult to concentrate at work. You'd rather daydream or be somewhere else. (Join the club -- we number millions.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler (1981) shares your birthday. Others love your imaginative ideas (because you're original and persuasive.) Yet you often appear to be quite commonplace. You work well with groups, and also very well alone. You often moonlight in different jobs because of your wide range of interests. In your 40s, home and family become more meaningful to you. This year is full of exciting, new beginnings!
