Caution: avoid shopping or important decisions after 5:45 AM EST for the rest of the day. The moon is in Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a fun-loving, playful day. In particular, you'll enjoy schmoozing with others especially friends and people in group situations - classes, clubs and conferences. If you think something fishy is going on behind the scenes might you might be right. Keep your eyes open.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

It's easy to schmooze with people in authority today - bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. However, just make sure you don't promise more than you can deliver. It's easy to do this today because you feel confident, friendly and full of hope.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Although your ambitions are aroused, you might feel hesitant about asserting yourself. (This in itself should tell you that you should wait.) Nevertheless, travel plans are promising; and romance with someone from another culture or a different background is sweet.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

People feel bighearted and generous today and this includes you. However, if you have to make important decisions about dividing something, perhaps an inheritance or shared property or anything that you own jointly with others, don't give away the farm!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a good day to enjoy the company of others. In fact, you will attract fun-loving, entertaining people to you today. However, it is not an ideal day to defend your own best interests in sharing something because your energy to do this is weakened today. Don't agree to anything important.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Enjoy the company of coworkers, customers and clients today; however, do not promise more than you can deliver, which is exactly what you might be tempted to do. Friendly bonds of camaraderie and good cheer might seduce you into agreeing to something that is unrealistic. Don't do it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a fun-loving, creative day for you. Accept all invitations to party! Enjoy movies, the theatre, sports events and playful activities with children. You might be tempted to go overboard partying, especially with food and drink - just be aware of this.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You will enjoy entertaining at home today or just hanging out and cocooning in familiar surroundings. That's because your energy to work is low key; you would rather have fun and relax. Real-estate opportunities might appeal. Just make sure that they are not too good to be true.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You are ready to promise the world to anyone today. (Partly, this is because that is who you are!) Just be careful you don't go overboard because you are feeling full of largess. In fact, a family or domestic issue might create confusion in your life. Take it easy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be careful about financial transactions today because you are given to excess. (Whaaat?)Yes, this is not usually your style. You are generally realistic when it comes to finances because you respect the value of things and you hate waste. Nevertheless, guard against crazy spending, even though this is still a good day for business and finance.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Relations with others are warm, friendly and upbeat - no question. You're in the mood to schmooze with others because you want to have fun and explore adventure. Seek out people who are generous and fun-loving so that you can share this energy today.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today Mars is in your sign lined up with your ruler Neptune. This is a strange combination; and it can create confusion in you. In one way you want to go forward and do something; nevertheless, you feel hesitant. Don't abuse your body with drugs.
