Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): ★★★★ You could go back and forth about reaching out to someone. You might not be up for all of the uproar that this action could result in.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): ★★★ Your financial concerns will be justified after a conversation. Recognize that everyone has limits, just as you do.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): ★★★ Tension builds, and you might feel as if you can’t get away from it. A parent or boss could be demanding, or perhaps you simply have a self-motivated deadline or project. You are a force to be dealt with, but you’ll attempt to play it more low-key. Tonight: Others notice you. Born today: Singer/songwriter Steve Perry (1949), actor John Hurt (1940), record producer DJ Jazzy Jeff (1965)
