Moon Alert
We have the All Clear today to shop (whether you spend $10 or ten million) and make important decisions. The Moon is in Aries.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
When the Moon is in Aries, everybody is inclined to tell others to take a long walk off a short pier. (And you're no exception.) Therefore, if you feel like telling somebody to buzz off, don't do it. And don't leave home without your copy of Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
It's just as well you feel the need to retire by yourself somewhere or work alone or work behind the scenes. People are mouthy today -- especially at work. You need this like a fish needs a bicycle. Don't get involved with the flap and doodle that others are fomenting.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Relations with friends, especially female acquaintances, might be testy today. People are in a fighting mood. At the very least, they want to spar with you. If you want to spar with them -- all is well. If you don't want to spar with them - run away!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Some aspect of your private life might be suddenly public today, especially in the eyes of bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs. It might even be a public argument or a disagreement. (Sometimes you just can't let go.) Think about your public reputation. Think about your private reputation.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You would dearly love to escape somewhere and have an exciting adventure. At least a room with a view and hot and cold running service. ("Send up two more club sandwiches and a bottle of Merlot.") Avoid disagreements about education, publishing, the media, travel, medicine and the law. Just enjoy your sandwich.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Disagreements about shared property, the division of labour, shared responsibilities, inheritances, debt and taxes might rankle you today. This is not a good day to get on your high horse. People actually want to fight! (The fastest way to shut anyone up is to agree with them.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today the Moon opposes your sign and it also opposes retrograde Mercury! Old fights with ex-partners are likely. Actually, new fights with new partners are also likely. It's that kind of day. Therefore, walk softly and don't even bother carrying a stick.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Disagreements with others at work, especially people you cannot reach or respond to might be annoying today. ("This is the latest decree from on high that we're supposed to follow? Shee!") Don't make a big deal about things. Stay true to your objective. Remain in a positive frame of mind.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Romance is rocky today. (The road of true anything is never smooth.) And dealing with children might be equally frustrating; and ditto for sports events. (Oh the pain of it all.) People are argumentative and quarrelsome, especially if a hockey puck is involved.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Conversations with bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs are testy today. These people aren't easy to deal with! And if you complain, things will probably get worse. That's because logic is gone out the window today. Old habits, prejudices and childhood patterns wag your tongue.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Avoid arguments about racial issues, religious matters and politics. People will become quickly emotionally heated and end up shooting from the hip with whatever they say. You might argue with someone just because you don't like his nose. (What a schnoz!)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This is a poor day for important negotiations, especially discussions about shared property, inheritances, insurance matters, taxes and debt. Avoid these. People aren't talking about what the issues really are. They're talking about how they feel.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Comic satirist Lenny Bruce (1925-66) shares your birthday today. You're goal oriented because you want to be successful. You take your career very seriously and have high standards for yourself. (You're a perfectionist.)You're outspoken and not afraid to offend others, yet at the same time, you're sweet and charming. You protect your privacy. Enjoy this social year and good times with others because next year you'll be busy studying or learning something.
