You’re pretty cool

because you don’t let

much bother you. You

are relaxed in social

situations because you are

talkative and witty. Privately,

you are surprisingly serious.

This year is the last year of

a nine-year cycle for you,

which means it’s time to take

inventory. Let go of what you

don’t need.

Moon Alert: There are no

restrictions to shopping or

important decisions today.

The Moon is in Aries.

ARIES

(MARCH 21-APRIL 19).

Today you might resurrect

some ideas that you had

before about making money.

Now they have greater appeal

to you, or you see they are

actually doable.

TAURUS

(APRIL 20-MAY 20).

You might be obsessed about

something today. It could be

about discovering a secret

about someone else or about

what’s going on behind the

scenes. You might want to dig

deeper into your own inner

world to determine what really

motivates you.

GEMINI

(MAY 21-JUNE 20).

Because your ability to

research anything is fabulous

today, you will love to

persevere in whatever you

do, especially if you can learn

something new. You will leave

no stone unturned.

CANCER

(JUNE 21-JULY 22).

You might encounter someone

powerful today. This could

be a friend or a member of a

group to which you belong. Or

perhaps you are the one who

is obsessed about a particular

idea.

LEO

(JULY 23-AUG. 22).

A conversation with a parent

or a boss will be intense

today. Because Mercury

is retrograde, this is an

excellent time to wrap up old

business and see the merits

of something that might have

been overlooked in the past.

VIRGO

(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22).

Steer clear of controversial

subjects like race, religion and

politics, because people are

intense, even volatile, in their

views today! They will likely not

hear you because there are

none so deaf as those who are

wearing headphones.

LIBRA

(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22).

You can get to the bottom of

something regarding shared

property, inheritances or

possible secrets from the past.

You might discover the truth

about how much someone

else owns or earns.

SCORPIO

(OCT. 23-NOV. 21).

A close friend or partner will

have strong views today.

Meanwhile, you’re not exactly

a wilting wallflower yourself.

Expect lively discussions to

take place where each party is

convinced that they are right.

SAGITTARIUS

(NOV. 22-DEC. 21).

You will accomplish a lot at

work today, because you

are focused, persistent and

persevering. You will get the

most done if you tackle old

business or something that

was unfinished, because the

energy of Mercury retrograde

will help you.

CAPRICORN

(DEC. 22-JAN. 19).

Romantic clashes with old

flames or ex-lovers are likely

today, because people are

opinionated and entrenched

in their views. This same

influence can show up in

sports encounters as well as

anything to do with your kids

or children’s activities.

AQUARIUS

(JAN. 20-FEB. 18).

Family discussions will be

intense today because

everyone has their own

ideas about something, and

they’re going to stick to their

views. Nevertheless, this

same intense energy can be

channeled into getting things

done at home.

PISCES

(FEB. 19-MARCH 20).

You might meet someone

today who has a great effect

upon your mind. They might

teach you something, because

today you can certainly learn

something new, especially

about the past. You might hear

from a neighbor or sibling you

haven’t seen in a while.
