Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 6 p.m. until midnight EDT. After that the Moon moves from Leo into Virgo.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You feel emotionally intense about everything today. There are no grays, only black and white. This intensity will mainly apply to your closest relationships. Tread gingerly, dear Aries! You might go overboard and suddenly the relationship is kaput! (Be careful what you ask for.)
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You might be full of pent-up emotions and yet, not fully aware of what you're feeling. For example, you could be sitting on rage or some kind of fear but not acknowledging it yourself or others. Something is bubbling deep inside you like a furnace. To be more accurate, a volcano! (Take 11 breaths.)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Disputes with friends or groups are intense to the point of obsession today. You sound like a stuck record in an attempt to be understood by others. Or vice versa, someone might come on to you with the same insistence. Too emotional! No calm clarity.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Romance with your boss will be passionate and overwhelming. It's lust at first sight. Or the opposite might occur. Your passions might be so overwhelming that you break out of a relationship. Either way, is the word "overwhelming" a clue?
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Avoid arguments about politics, religion, racial issues, or publishing and the law. Feelings are so heated, agreement is impossible. You can't force others to swing to your way of thinking. There are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a passionate, sexy day for many of you. (Definitely the stuff of movies.) However, not everyone is making that kind of a movie, right? Some of you might be agitated about shared property, inheritances or how your partner is handling money. You're not a happy camper! (Stay frosty so that you can remain rational.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Expect to have intense emotional experiences with others today. Especially partners and close friends. These exchanges could be so intense that suddenly a real breakdown occurs. Ironically, what you crave is stability. Instead, you might be too restrictive or smothering to someone. "That way lies madness!"
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Do not insist on getting your own way at work today. On the other hand, don't let others bully you or run over you like a steamroller because they want to get their way. Play it cool. Sidestep people who think they are on a mission.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Do your best to be tactful and tolerant when dealing with children today. It's too easy to lose your perspective and overreact to things. It's as if there's "crazy spores" in the air infecting everyone. The world needs a voice of calm sanity today. You can be that voice. (Even with that silly accent.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
The best way to use today's intense energy is to make improvements at home. Start by getting rid of what you no longer need. Reduce and remove clutter. Clean up dark areas and anything near plumbing like bathrooms. You can make a wonderful difference!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Conversations with others, especially siblings, won't be casual today. Au contraire! People (including you) are intent on convincing others to agree with them. Even salespeople will be doing the hard sell. Lighten up! Give this situation more breathing space.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You feel obsessed about something to do with your cash flow or your money scene. Perhaps you feel you must buy something. Or you must sell something. Do not let your emotions cloud your rational mind. (You can't afford this to happen.)
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Christine Baranski (1952) shares your birthday today. Nothing gets by you. You observe everything, in addition to which you're a hard-driving, hard-working perfectionist. (What a sure-fire guarantee for success!) You easily assume authority because you have a take-charge personality; in addition to which, you have marvellous organizational skills. This year something you've been involved with for the last nine years will finish in order to create room for something new.
