ARIES (March 21 to April 19): You will need extra diplomacy and patience when dealing with others today because of the planetary activity. Yes, it’s a crunchy day. Authority figures might be difficult. And so it goes.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20): Money problems might loom today. Just cope as best you can. Let’s face it - there’s always too much month left at the end of the money, isn’t there?
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20): You might feel a bit lonely or cut off from others today. Don’t worry, because this is just a passing thing. A lot of people feel this way today.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22): Relationships with family members might be a bit strained today. This will pass quickly. Continue with plans to make your home look more attractive, because you will be entertaining soon!
LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22): You might have difficulty dealing with a female friend or acquaintance today. This is natural because we don’t all see things in the same light. Don’t worry about this.
VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22): This is a poor day to ask authority figures for permission or approval, because they won’t be cooperative. Their response will be “Talk to the hand.”
LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22): Avoid depressing discussions about politics, religion or racial issues today, because they will be anti-productive. Some days you can get things done, and some days you can’t.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21): This is a poor day to ask for a loan or a mortgage, or to make an important decision about inheritances or shared property. Wait until Thursday for better success.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21): Relationships with partners and close friends are a bit strained today. Do not take things personally. Other people feel the same way, because that’s just what’s happening today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19): You might find it difficult to deal with supervisors and bosses at work today. Don’t ask for favors or permission. Postpone this for a few days.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18): Children might be an increased responsibility today. (Oh well.) Remind yourself that this just goes with the territory. Even social diversions will feel like obligations.
PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20): Talking to an older family member may be difficult today. Just be patient and gracious. Keep things light.
BORN TODAY: You are friendly, calm, capable and confident. You will have a great zest for life and want to nurture the happiness and beauty around you. Please note: This is a busy year and a year of choice. Be grateful for what you have; do not focus on what you don’t have. Expect increased popularity and the warm rekindling of old friendships.
