The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
*** Keep an eye on your money and your possessions today because something unexpected could impact them. You might lose money; you might find money. Protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. Pay attention to your moneymaking ideas because they might be worthwhile!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
**** This is an erratic day because the Moon is in your sign lined up with wild, wacky Uranus, making can impulsive and wonderfully spontaneous. Be careful because you might do something to offend or threaten an authority figure. Think before you speak.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
**** Steer clear of controversial subjects because they might lead to arguments today. Nevertheless, you're keen to explore new ideas on new subjects and see new places in order to learn new things. (Ever curious, you love the fascination of new knowledge.)
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
**** A busy day! A friend or a member of a group might surprise you by saying or doing something you least expect. Or perhaps, you'll meet someone new who is unusual and interesting. Steer clear of disputes about inheritances, shared property and shared expenses. (You don't need the angst.)
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
*** Tread carefully when dealing with authority figures today - bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police - because something unexpected might catch you off guard. Someone might do or say something you didn't anticipate. "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
**** Travel plans might change today. They might be delayed or cancelled - or perhaps, you suddenly have to travel when you didn't expect to do so? Likewise, school schedules might also change. Stay on top of details regarding medicine, the law and publishing.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
*** An unexpected dispute with your kids might occur today, especially about money or financial support. Or a surprise might occur in the arts or anything to do with sports. Don't let a partner, spouse or close friend put you down or make you feel diminished. You're doing the best you can.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
**** This is a busy, playful day even though friction at home might occur, especially with partners and spouses. Give yourself extra time so you have wiggle room to deal with the unexpected. You want to enjoy this day - not be frustrated. Stay chill.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
*** Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is a mildly accident-prone day. Obviously, an accident doesn't have to happen; however, if you're distracted by something - that nanosecond could make you vulnerable. Be alert. (The world needs more lerts.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
**** Disputes about money or shared expenses for a social occasion, a vacation or something to do with the education and support of your kids might arise today. Don't overreact. Take time to do your homework so that your response is sensible and practical. Short trips and conversations will appeal today.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
**** Your home routine might be interrupted today. Small appliances could break down, or a little breakage could occur. Someone unexpected might knock at your door? Get dressed so that you're ready for anything. Avoid arguments because they will drain you unnecessarily. Keep the peace.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
*** You're definitely strong, gracious and charming with the Sun, Mercury and fair Venus in your sign. Admittedly, Mercury is about to go retrograde this week, making you forget things, misplace items and run a bit late. Transportation delays are also likely. Avoid arguments today. Keep smiling.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Emily Blunt (1983) shares your birthday today. You are practical, determined and tenacious. You have analytical abilities and can project confidence. Lucky you! This year you will reap the benefits of your hard work. Expect power and leadership. It's a year for major decisions and accomplishments. You will receive awards or kudos and acknowledgements from others.
