Taurus (April 20-May 20): An unexpected encounter with a boss, parent or a VIP might be related to difficulties you have with a friend or partner.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Steer clear of controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today because they will trigger arguments. Travel delays or unexpected surprises might also create conflict with coworkers.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Try to minimize disputes about shared property, inheritances, taxes and debt because they will only upset you. They might relate to the cost of caring for children or the cost for a social event.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Family disputes might arise today because of unexpected news from afar. Or perhaps surprise travel plans will catch you off guard. Something unexpected will trigger a domestic argument. A lot of people feel feisty and independent today.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Disputes at work are likely today, especially disputes about budgets, equipment or the allocation of something. You might feel unfairly treated. Conversely, someone might be envious of what you have.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A surprise invitation somewhere might delight you but it might also strain your pocketbook. Romantic disputes or arguments about children might arise. You need to sort things out.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You might feel quarrelsome today. Quite likely, a female family member will do or say something that upsets you. Possibly this person wants to explore something or make a sudden change.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Even though something unexpected occurs today or a romantic partner is more aggressive — hold the phone. Do not overreact, which will be your impulse.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Financial disputes might occur because of a sudden windfall, a sudden expense, or a sudden purchase. Something unexpected will trigger a discussion — almost surely.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today there’s good news and there’s bad news while the Moon is in your sign. The bad news is that you might quarrel with a parent or a boss. But the good news is that you feel independent and energetic, and as a result, you will make a new friend.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Something hidden or behind the scenes might impact your earnings in a favourable way today. In turn, this might also cause you to change your plans about higher education or travel. Try to leave your options open.
