The day ahead: ★★★★★ = Dynamic; ★★★★ = Positive; ★★★ = Average; ★★ = So-so; ★ = Difficult

Moon Alert: The New Moon is in Capricorn. Avoid shopping or important decisions from 6:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. PST. After that, the Moon moves from Capricorn into Aquarius.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ Today’s New Moon is the perfect opportunit­y for you to think about resolution­s that you might have considered for this new year. This particular New Moon urges you to think about your attitude to authority. You are independen­t and self-reliant and might chafe at authority.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★ Each New Moon is an opportunit­y to make resolution­s and set intentions. Today is an excellent day to ask yourself what further training or education you could get that would improve your job or your career, or what learning or travel might enrich and enhance your life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★ The New Moon today is a lovely opportunit­y to take care of paperwork and unfinished business related to shared property, inheritanc­es, taxes, debt and all that red tape stuff you like to avoid. Why not reduce some of it and enter this new year free of these niggling details?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Today the New Moon opposes your sign, and it will again on Dec. 30 at the end of the year. Bookends for you. Each New Moon is the perfect opportunit­y to set intentions or make resolution­s. This New Moon relates to partnershi­ps and close friendship­s.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ As this year begins, today is the perfect day to think about what you can do to improve your health, either by eating better or getting more exercise or both. Sometimes dropping a bad habit is a great benefit as well.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ The New Moon today is the right day to consider how you balance work and play in your life. Both are necessary. You want your life to be well-rounded with a good balance between duties and obligation­s versus free time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ The New Moon today is an excellent chance to think about how to improve your relations with family members, as well as how to improve where you live so you enjoy your home more. These are both important considerat­ions for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★ We are gregarious. We need to be seen, and we need to see others. We need to be heard, and we need to hear others. The New Moon today is a perfect time to think about how well you communicat­e to others and how you might improve your communicat­ing style.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★ Today’s New Moon takes place in one of your Money Houses, which begs the question, How are you handling your money? What about your spending habits? For that matter, how are you handling your possession­s and taking care of them?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ Today’s New Moon is in your sign, which is the perfect time to take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to change your appearance so that you create a better impression on your world. Ideas? You value the respect of your peers.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ The New Moon today is in a hidden part of your chart, which means this is an excellent day to think of how your childhood habits might trigger today’s behavior. Sometimes this is a good thing; sometimes not. A bit of navel gazing might reveal some truths.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ Today’s New Moon is the perfect time to think about your friends. Your friends are important because they can influence the way you think. And the way you think is how you will make your choices, and your choices create your future.
