Moon Alert

Caution: Avoid shopping or making important decisions after 11:15 a.m. EDT today. The Moon is in Virgo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Whoops! There is a Moon Alert for most of the day. Do be aware of this. However, although the Moon Alert is a poor time for shopping and making important decisions, it's a great time for creativity, fun and just goofing off. Enjoy your Saturday because it's time to play!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This can be a wonderfully creative day for those of you involved in the arts or in any kind of creative project. Great ideas related to show business, the entertainment world, the hospitality industry, sports and also children will flow! (But don't sign anything. See Moon Alert above.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is lovely day to relax at home and enjoy the company of others. You might also just want to cocoon and pamper yourself. You will enjoy entertaining at home today but, most of all, remember that this is a laid-back, relaxed day. See Moon alert above.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a creative day for writers and actually, a fun day for everyone. However, it's a poor day for important decisions or signing contracts or making major purchases. Keep things lighthearted and enjoy yourself. Conversations will be fun and fascinating.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Be careful today because you are focused on money, cash flow and financial matters. Take note that this is a poor day for financial decisions and major expenditures. (Just buy food or tickets to movies and sports events.) You might see creative new uses for something you own because your mind is resourceful today.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your appearance. How can you create a better impression on your world? If you're thinking of buying new wardrobe items, wait until tomorrow. (See Moon Alert above.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is an interesting day for research or trying to find solutions or answers to questions. Although things are a bit loosey-goosey because of the Moon Alert, your ability to connect the dots and think creatively is excellent. However, your concentration might waver a tad. Just go with the flow.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a wonderful day to schmooze with others and enjoy group conversations. During a Moon Alert people are generally friendly, relaxed and ready to laugh. Someone might make a creative suggestion that you can use. Enjoy easy-going banter but postpone important decisions until tomorrow.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You're high viz. today, particularly in the eyes of authority figures (parents and bosses, etc.) In discussions with authority figures, feel free to kick around ideas and test the waters. Nevertheless, wait until tomorrow to agree to anything. And don't volunteer for anything! (Not today.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Lively discussions about politics, religion and philosophical issues will interest you. Enjoy intellectual banter with others. Quite likely, you will learn something new if you hang out with people from different backgrounds, which is a good thing because you want some exciting stimulation!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Although you're focused on shared property, taxes, debt, insurance matters and inheritances right now, postpone important decisions until tomorrow. Just do your homework today and push some papers around so that you get the lay of the land. (Information is power.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Conversations with close friends will be unpredictable today. These discussions might go off on a tangent where you least expect. Enjoy kicking around ideas. However, don't agree to anything important because for most of today there's a Moon Alert. Just fill your databank with ideas from other people.
