HOROSCOPE

All signs: Until 6:30 p.m. today we have the “all clear” to shop and do business. The moon is in Sagittarius.

ARIES

(MARCH 21 — APRIL 19)

Today: You need a change of scenery. Travel somewhere if you can. Perhaps you could be a tourist in your own city?

Sunday: Expect a few surprises from parents, bosses and VIPs, including the police. Avoid doing anything to provoke a response from an authority figure that you don’t want.

This week: You need more sleep. This week your primary focus continues to be on partnerships and friendships, while dealings with groups and casual acquaintances are robust and energetic. However, Jupiter’s last month in Scorpio, for your sign, means you still have opportunities to benefit from the wealth and resources of others. Your wealth might increase because your partner earns more. Likewise, you can benefit through banks that give you a loan or mortgage. Some of you will even receive an inheritance.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 — MAY 20)

Today: You’re focused on details regarding shared property, taxes, debt, insurance matters or inheritances. You cannot ignore it. Wrap up what you can.

Sunday: Postpone important decisions about inheritances and shared property for another day because today is dicey. You cannot count on things today.

This week: You’re thinking about how to best manage your life and prioritize responsibilities. This year your ambition has been strong. Use this energy because, in a few weeks, it will change focus. Meanwhile, you have the benefit of Jupiter opposing your sign and this benefit remains for one more month. It favours all one-to-one encounters. People will help you in many ways.

GEMINI (MAY 21 — JUNE 20)

Today: The moon is opposite your sign, which means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. It simply requires a little charm, patience and accommodation.

Sunday: Keep conversations light. This is a poor day to agree to anything important. Make sure you know what’s happening with shared property, debt, inheritances and insurance issues. This week: This continues to be a playful, flirtatious time. Mars amps your desire to travel and learn something new. Jupiter has brought you opportunities to improve your health this year along with chances to improve your job. This continues for another month.

CANCER (JUNE 21 — JULY 22)

Today: You want to get something done. You need to run errands, do shopping, and take care of stuff. Just do it.

Sunday: It’s hard to get going. Your focus is mushy and you might be indecisive. On the upside, this can be a creative day for you. Expect some surprises from partners and close friends.

This week: Your focus on home and family continues, especially increased involvement with a parent or an authority figure. Disputes about sex or shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt and insurance issues are on your plate. In the next month, your interest is still about romance, vacations, playful activities with children and exploring opportunities in the arts. Your focus will soon shift. Recently (and in the month ahead) you have the courage to be yourself and express yourself to others. Along with this, your sex drive has been amped.

LEO (JULY 23 — AUG. 22)

Today: You want to play. Sports events, social outings, the theatre, fun activities with kids, romantic dates, vacations and out-of-town getaways are your choices.

Sunday: You’re creative because your imagination has free range. Write down your ideas. Work on any project that requires creative thinking. When you decide to work later, expect a detour.

This week: Your busy time continues. Mars has been opposite your sign for most of this year which is most unusual. This makes you irritated with partners and close friends. You’ll be happy and relieved to hear that by mid-November, this opposition is gone. For the next month, Jupiter continues to bless home, family and real estate.

VIRGO (AUG. 23 — SEPT. 22)

Today: You might want to sleep in and relax over a second cup of coffee. You will probably have an important conversation with a female relative. Give yourself permission to enjoy cocooning. Sunday: This is the perfect day to putter at home, hang out in your robe, have a second cup of coffee and read the newspaper.

This week: You still have money on your mind. This could include money-making ideas plus firm intentions about how to take care of what you own. You’re giving a lot of thought to your basic values, which might be prompted by events around you that provoke you to think of what really matters. You continue to be pumped to work hard. Make the most of this because this will fade in about a month. The last month of Jupiter in Scorpio continues to boost your optimism and appreciation for your daily world.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23 — OCT. 22)

Today: You want to have a meaningful exchange with someone. You want to cut to the chase and talk about what you think is important. Well, you will be more diplomatic than that.

Sunday: This is a poor day for important decisions or spending money except for the gas and food. Check the moon alert above because this restriction ends in the afternoon. Until then, play your cards close to your chest. This week: The sun is in your sign for one more week. (When the sun is in your sign, which happens only once a year, you’re pumped with energy and you attract people and favourable situations to you.) Mars continues to make you competitive in sports and romantically active while Jupiter reigns in its last month in Scorpio, giving you chances to boost your income and increase your wealth. You can also actualize in your life whatever you most value.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23 — NOV. 21)

Today: Money is on your mind. You might also be focused on something you own. You feel emotional about what you own today.

Sunday: For most of this day, it’s a poor day to shop or spend money on anything other than food, gas and entertainment. (Check the Moon Alert above.) This is also a mildly accident-prone day, so be careful. Think before you speak or act. Pay attention to what you say and do.

This week: You’re keeping a low profile until your birthday, which means you prefer to work alone or behind the scenes. Once the sun enters your sign, you’ll be out there flying your colours. The crazy agitation and increased activity that’s been taking place for months at home is starting to subside. Once again, your home can be your refuge. Meanwhile, lucky Jupiter will be in your sign for one more month attracting people and resources to you.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 — DEC. 21)

Today: The moon is still in your sign, which will make you a bit more emotional than usual. Sunday: This morning you’re at loose ends because the moon alert is taking place in your sign. Keep an eye on your money and possessions because something unexpected could impact something you own.

This week: Enjoy your popularity because everyone wants to see your face. This year you have been forthright and bold when talking to others because Mars has been in your House of Communications. Ironically, next month both Mars and Jupiter change signs bringing a drastic difference to your life. Nevertheless, for the next month, your focus on secret matters, hidden love affairs and spiritual quests will be alive in your life and imagination.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 — JAN. 19)

Today: You need to take a breather. Catch up on sleep. Catch up on down “me” time for yourself. Sunday: You’re not sure what to do this morning. Something unexpected will occur this afternoon. You might start to do something because you feel rebellious or independent. Something will catch you off guard. This week: The sun is still high in your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. You have one more week to advance your agenda and dazzle everyone. Mars will be in your Money House for one more month boosting your ambition to earn money and yet, encouraging you to spend more. The last month of Jupiter in Scorpio continues to increase your popularity and your involvement with groups. While Jupiter stays in this position, your interaction with others will benefit you.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 — FEB. 18)

Today: Friendships enrich your life and make it more stimulating and rewarding. Today contact with a female friend or colleague could be significant.

Sunday: This is a lovely morning to meet friends for brunch or hang out with a group because people are friendly and relaxed. It’s a great time to kick around some ideas but that’s all — wait until the moon alert is over to agree to anything important. This week: Travel, faraway places and fascinating subjects intrigue you because you want to expand your world and feel more alive. Furthermore, you will reach out for what you want because for most of this year, fiery Mars has boosted your energy. However, in one month, Mars will change signs as will Jupiter. Jupiter has been sitting at the top of your chart for a year now giving you a chance to boost your reputation. You still have one more month of this blessing so make the most of it.

PISCES (FEB. 19 — MARCH 20)

Today: This is the second day when the moon is sitting at the top of your chart. People are talking about you or checking out details of your personal life. Meanwhile, you want to get better organized and on top of your game.

Sunday: This is a poor day for important discussions. However, you might exchange ideas in a creative way. Nevertheless, do not volunteer or agree to anything important.

This week: You’ve been focused and resourceful working with the resources of others and using them to benefit you and everyone. This year has promoted secret love affairs for many. While Jupiter has been in Scorpio this year, you have been blessed because it is in your fellow water sign. It brought wonderful opportunities to travel and learn new things. The point of learning more and expanding your world was to prepare you for next year, which is super promising.
