Moon Alert

Caution! Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 8 AM until 11:45 PM EDT today. After that, the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Be careful, because it is so easy to end up with egg on your face. (Ketchup helps.) Power struggles with others might tempt you to go overboard - yada yada yada - trying to convince someone that you are right. Is this a case of "methinks thee doth protest too much?"

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Secret enemies might be something you have to deal with today. Quite possibly, somebody behind the scenes is working against your best interests. Make sure that you are not doing this to anyone. Sneaky moves will not pay off today.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Avoid arguments with others in group meetings. Before you know it, you're just too tempted to jump in and set everyone straight. (And you're so clever, of course.) But you will be viewed as being pushy and domineering. (Even if you're cute.) Don't do it.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Steer clear of squabbles with parents, teachers, bosses and VIPs. (This includes the police.) These power struggles will be nasty and probably you will gain nothing. Confucius said, "He who flings dirt only loses ground."

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will gain nothing in arguments about publishing, the media, politics, religion, or anything to do with higher education, medicine, and the law. That cover such a broad range of things - just don't argue with others! Nevertheless, it's impossible for you to contain your enthusiasm today!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Disputes about inheritances, shared property, insurance matters, taxes and debt might arise today. If so, they will be nasty. It's ironic because in one way, you feel very enthusiastic about something - very positive. Nevertheless, a very pushy nature in all communications today means lively discussions quickly become arguments!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is not an ideal day for important discussions with partners and close friends. Initially, others are enthusiastic and even generous to you. But very soon, you perceive that in their enthusiasm, they're trying to take over and run your life! They even want your passwords! Tread carefully.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Make sure that your eagerness to introduce something at work doesn't just create a lot of opposition to you. Perhaps others are jealous? Perhaps they think you are overreaching? Or perhaps they're just a bunch of jerks. Whatever the reason, I advise you to scale back the minute you sense the opposition growing.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Romantic quarrels or disputes about creative projects, show business, social events, sports, or anything to do with teaching children can easily take place today. Quite likely, things begin with interest and enthusiasm. But people will get so quickly carried away, they become adamant about whatever they say.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Avoid domestic disputes today. You need this like a fish needs a bicycle. Someone might take on too much or promise too much or be overwhelmed by a project. Others might react with criticism. This is just one possible scenario. People are pushy today. "Step away from the stove."

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are so enthusiastic about something today, you're keen to let everyone know what you know or learn what you've discovered. Perhaps this is why you'll be chagrined if they're not interested in what you have to say. Before you know it, a real brawl is on your hands. Don't even go there.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Financial disputes and arguments about possessions are highly likely today; therefore, steer clear of these. Arguments will really get out of hand so you don't want to become embroiled in anything. Nevertheless, you're full of bright, clever, moneymaking ideas! (It will frustrate you if no one appreciates this.)
