HOROSCOPES

All signs: Avoid shopping or big decisions from 6:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. today. After that, the Moon moves from Virgo into Libra.

Aries (March 21 — April 19) Today: If planning a fun event this weekend, Sunday will be the better day because today people are off their game. They feel withdrawn and restrained when dealing with others. It’s not a super friendly day. Just cope.

Sunday: This is a wonderful day to shmooz with everyone — friends, partners and the general public. You will be an energetic communicator. And you will be convincing.

This week: This is a strong week for you. Both Venus and Mercury are in your sign along with wild, wacky Uranus. This is a great week to shop for wardrobe treasures. Tuesday will be full of surprises and high energy in the buildup before Wednesday’s Full Moon, which could bring disputes about money and possessions. By Friday, you’re high energy and positive in your communications. With Jupiter opposite your sign, you will continue to encounter people who will help you in various ways.

Taurus (April 20 — May 20) Today: This continues to be a powerful day for you because the Sun is in your sign. Admittedly, other planets are a bit off, which means relations with others, particularly at work, are a bit restrained. No biggie. This is nothing you cannot handle.

Sunday: Relations with work colleagues are excellent. You’re keen to work hard to make money. Everyone will be friendly and supportive. Likewise, you feel healthy and vigorous. Furthermore, you feel encouraged about your health. And perhaps a pet?

This week: Things will be restless at the beginning of the week because you can feel the energy building up before Wednesday’s Full Moon (which is the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year). Be cool and never underestimate the power of courtesy when everyone around you is losing it. This particular Full Moon will create tension between you and others, especially partners and close friends. However, the Full Moon energy generally lasts only 48 hours. By Friday, you’re gung ho about a financial situation.

Gemini (May 21 — June 20) Today: You have aspirations for a playful, fun-loving day. You might be involved with groups, teams and sports. Just be aware that people might hold back a bit; they feel a bit distrustful or cautious. This means they need to be reassured in a warm, loving way. Or just tell them to buzz off.

Sunday: This is a vigorous, ambitious, energetic day! It’s curious because in one way, you feel private and a bit withdrawn. Nevertheless, sports and fun occasions will attract you and you will have fun. Enjoy playful times with children as well as the arts and all social occasions.

This week: The Sun is still hidden in your chart, which means you’re happy to play things low key and plan for your new year ahead. Wise move. Nevertheless, you might be agitated with a friend or a member of a group at the beginning of the week. Take things in your stride because the Full Moon on Wednesday will create tension on the job for you and possibly with your health.

Cancer (June 21 — July 22) Today: This is not an ideal day for important family discussions. Postpone these for another day. In fact, tomorrow is an excellent day! Timing is everything. Meanwhile, seek seclusion and privacy today for your own well-being.

Sunday: Invite the gang over for good food and drink because it’s a great day to entertain at home. This is also a good day to explore real-estate opportunities or renovation ideas.

This week: It’s important for your sign to know you have the best chance since 2005 of creating your dream home. (And before that it was 1993.) Therefore, think about how you can expand your existing home through renovations or renting something bigger and better. Some of you might move to a bigger and better home. Others will benefit from a real-estate transaction.

Leo (July 23 — Aug. 22) Today: Be aware that you are high visibility because the Sun is at the top of your chart. This is mostly good news; it’s a flattering light and you look good to others. Just remember that you are on display.

Sunday: You are in a marvellous mood to socialize with others, which is why you will be glad you made the effort to see siblings, relatives, neighbours and friends. A competitive event will intrigue you. People notice you now and you don’t mind because you are happy.

This week: The Full Moon on Wednesday will be one of the tougher Full Moons for your sign. You will feel challenged dealing with the needs of home and family versus the demands of your career and reputation. It will be the old squeeze play. Travel plans will be unpredictable Tuesday: Be alert for that. But in the bigger picture, this is your year of optimism. Virgo (Aug. 23 — Sept. 22) Today: Your urge to travel and have a change of scenery is strong, but financial matters might discourage you. Big ideas but no money: It happens to all of us. Ironically, tomorrow you will feel much better about this same situation. There is hope!

Sunday: Business and finance are favoured today. And you’re ready to do business because your ambition is aroused. Go after what you want. Make your pitch to the boss. Think of ways to make more money. Ka-ching!

This week: Keep an eye on shared property, taxes and debt Tuesday. Quarrels might erupt because tension is building up before Wednesday’s Full Moon, which incidentally, is an accident-prone time for you. Pay attention to everything you say and do this week. Be mindful and alert. All will be well because by Friday you will be enthusiastic dealing with bosses, parents and power people.

Libra (Sept. 23 — Oct. 22) Today: You might overreact when talking to people because the Moon is in your sign, which makes you more emotional. And today is a bit of a testy day. But tomorrow is lovely! Just think about that — or England. Or both.

Sunday: This is a wonderful day for you because the Moon is in your sign lined up with lucky, moneybags Jupiter. Furthermore, the Moon is dancing beautifully with fiery Mars. This means you have energy, enthusiasm and ideas about how to expand your world both practically and financially.

This week: On Tuesday, you could have a dust-up with someone. They might surprise you. The Full Moon on Wednesday could create tension about taxes, debt, inheritances, insurance and shared property. Something will come to a head. By Friday, you want to get outta Dodge. You want fun and a chance to live life large. And you can do this because you are the only sign that lucky Jupiter is in for most of this year.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 — Nov. 21) Today: Keep in mind that you need more sleep at this time, which means you must respect this requirement. If you are sleep deprived, that might explain why relations with partners and close friends, including work colleagues are a bit strained today. Go to bed.

Sunday: Even though you are low energy, you will enjoy today. Something going on behind the scenes, perhaps a secret, makes you excited. Certainly, favourable situations at work bless you now. Your focus is on partnerships and close friends.

This week: At the beginning of the week, there will be tension and upsets with your job. By Wednesday, the only Full Moon in your sign will occur. Naturally, you will feel tension with others in the days leading up to it and things might not calm down until Friday. You have amazing inner discipline; this is the week for you to use it and demonstrate grace under pressure.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 — Dec. 21) Today: Ideally, this is a good day to work and tackle your To Do list. Save social situations for tomorrow. Today you are in a more heads-down, serious mood. Do be patient with partners and close friends who are annoying. And they will be annoying.

Sunday: This is a great day to enjoy the company of others, especially in groups. Sports events will appeal. Romantic outings and playful times with children will be fun. A partner or close friend will definitely energize you. Don’t be too competitive.

This week: Alert for parents: The beginning of the week is an accident-prone time for your kids. By Wednesday, the Full Moon will create some tension at work and with co-workers. Just be as mellow and breezy as you truly are. Admittedly, this is a tough time for you with Saturn in your sign, and it’s been tough since 2015. Relief is in sight because Saturn will leave Sagittarius in December this year and not return for 30 years. Glory hallelujah!

Capricorn (Dec. 22 — Jan. 19) Today: You are high visibility today. Relations with bosses, parents and VIPs might be a bit strained or stiff. Just be courteous. It’s a middling day, whereas tomorrow is lovely. You have that to look forward to.

Sunday: You look great in the eyes of others, especially bosses, parents and VIPs. They see you as a winner and also as someone generous and warm-hearted. Enjoy any activity you choose to pursue because you’re in the mood to have fun.

This week: Stock the fridge because something unexpected will occur at the beginning of the week. Food and drink always help any situation. Wednesday’s Full Moon will create tension with kids and romantic partners. Sports events might also suffer. Fortunately, by Friday, you are back in the game on steroids. The thing to remember is that this is the only time since 2005 that Jupiter is crossing the top of your chart. This won’t happen again until 2028.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 — Feb. 18) Today: Travel plans might disappoint you. Or possibly, a meeting with someone from another culture or a different country might also not live up to its expectations. Not to worry because tomorrow you will be enthusiastic about these same areas.

Sunday: Travel plans look exciting. You’re not afraid to think big today. Anything to do with sports, playful activities with children, the arts, vacations and fun times will be tops on your menu today. Good day to entertain at home. It all feels good!

This week: Pay attention to everything you say and do at the beginning of the week, especially Tuesday because that is an accident-prone day. Nevertheless, you will also be full of geniuslike ideas. It will be a tough Full Moon on Wednesday. That’s a fact. You will feel the tension before and after. It could manifest with home and family or with your boss; but you will not be able to keep everyone happy.

Pisces (Feb. 19 — March 20) Today: This is not an ideal day to discuss inheritances, shared property or financial matters with others because people will be close fisted. However, tomorrow these same discussions will go well because people will feel generous and fair to all concerned. Make note of this.

Sunday: You’re pumped with enthusiasm for life now even though your home scene is a bit chaotic. Many of you see ways to boost your earnings. Likewise, you will receive gifts and financial assistance from others at this time as well. This is a lovely day — enjoy! This is also a positive day for those of you who write, sell, teach and act.

This week: Keep an eye on your finances at the beginning of the week, especially Tuesday, to avoid a loss. This week has some agitation because the Full Moon on Wednesday could create arguments with others. In fact, this Full Moon is an accidentprone time so be mindful of everything you do and say. With respect to the good fortune of Jupiter for your sign this year, you will benefit from the resources of others.

If your birthday is today: Actor George Clooney (1961) shares your birthday. You love beauty in your surroundings and you need harmony in your relationships. This is a social, happy year with cheerful vibrations. Broaden your social circle to include new contacts. Romance may bloom. You want to live life to its fullest. This year is a year of choice. You might face an important decision.

If your birthday is Sunday: Actor Alexander Ludwig (1992) shares your birthday. You want to improve society and will make sacrifices to do this. This is a year of growth and building. It’s a time to get organized. Responsibilities will increase, magnifying the effort and hard work needed to maintain your life. Do what you can to reduce your debt and strengthen your financial position because you are building for your future.
