HOROSCOPE

April 22, 2017 By Georgia Nicols

Moon Alert: We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The Moon is in Pisces

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a mystical, mysterious day. Basically, you will feel laid-back and relaxed. In fact, you might be lost in fantasies and daydreams. It will please you to keep a low profile and work alone or behind the scenes. Take it easy and send out for dark chocolate.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You will enjoy the company of a female friend or companion today; and you will feel sympathetic or empathize with this person. If you can help them — you will. Do be careful of idealizing this person or putting them up on a pedestal. This is not ideal or realistic.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You feel sympathetic towards others today, especially a female or someone in a position of power — perhaps your boss or your mother or another older woman or someone more experienced. It’s good to feel sympathetic for someone; however, remain realistic. But you know this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Because your appreciation of beauty is heightened today, give yourself a chance to enjoy beautiful places, art galleries, museums and parks or, of course, pristine nature! You might also be inspired talking to someone from another culture or a different country.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

If you are discussing an inheritance or how to divide something today, remain realistic. Don’t give away the farm. It’s good to be sympathetic to others; however, you cannot ignore your own best interests in the process. Everyone counts — including you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Be prepared to compromise with others and accommodate them because you have to go more than halfway today due to the fact that the Moon is opposite your sign. In two weeks, when the Moon is in your sign, others will have to accommodate you. That’s how it works.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You will be sympathetic to coworkers today — no question. And quite likely, they will be sympathetic to you as well. In fact, these feelings will extend to your pets and anyone involved in your life in a medical way or related to your own health care.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are definitely in touch with your muse today, which is why this will be a productive day for those of you in the arts or anyone involved in a creative project. It also will bless those of you in the hospitality industry and the entertainment world. Go do that voodoo that you do so well!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Family discussions will be mutually sympathetic today because people feel kindhearted and attentive to each other’s needs. There’s nothing phony about this. It’s genuine. This is a good day for an interaction with a female relative.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Don’t be hard on yourself if you spend a lot of time daydreaming today or lost in a woolly fog because it’s easy to do. And hey — we all need days like this. Just make sure it’s not a decade. Because your imagination is heightened, you can be very creative.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

If spending money today, you might be inclined to go overboard on luxury and elegance. And you might also be overly generous with someone. Remember: true generosity is giving what is needed. And remember your own welfare as well.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today the Moon is in your sign lined up with your ruler Neptune, which makes you warm, kind and sympathetic to everyone. You will almost instantly understand where people are coming from, which makes them respond to you in kind. It’s a dreamy, gentle day.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress/comedienne Sherri Shepherd (1967) shares your birthday today. You are an unusual combination of being hard-working and focused; and yet, a unique free spirit. Something you’ve been involved with for nine years will end this year in order to make room for something new to enter your world. Although this is a year of service to others, it is also a great year to travel. Get ready for a new cycle waiting in your future!

If Your Birthday is Tomorrow

TV Host John Oliver (1977) shares your birthday today. You are quick thinking and curious about many things. Personally, you have strong family ties. You are now in the beginning of a new nine-year cycle, which will offer you many new possibilities and opportunities. Perhaps you will start a new job or change residences or head off in a new direction? Open any door; your future is in your hands!
