All signs:

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 2:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. today. After that, the moon moves from Aries into Taurus.

Aries (March 21 — April 19):

You’re impulsive, creative and let’s face it, sometimes you have a short fuse. Resist the urge to be in conflict with a parent or boss today because this might happen. You don’t need this.

Taurus (April 20 — May 20):

Something going on behind the scenes is unsettling, which is why you might find yourself at odds with someone from another culture. Or you might want to argue with someone about politics.

Gemini (May 21 — June 20):

Without even meaning to, you might find yourself in a situation where you have to defend yourself with a friend or a member of a group. But do you really have to do this? Don’t take the bait.

Cancer (June 21 — July 22):

This is a classic day to be in conflict with someone in authority. Be aware of the fact that if you do this, your confrontation will be noticed by others because you are high visibility today.

Leo (July 23 — Aug. 22):

It’s easy to be caught up in a drama about philosophical concepts or politics and religion. People are very entrenched in their views. It’s hard to change their minds because there are none so deaf as those wearing headphones.

Virgo (Aug. 23 — Sept. 22):

Disputes about insurance issues, the cost of a social event or the cost of educating kids will likely arise today. Steer clear of these disagreements.

Libra (Sept. 23 — Oct. 22):

The ironic thing about your sign is you’re an excellent debater and yet, you want harmony in your surroundings. Don’t take the bait today.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 — Nov. 21):

Avoid nasty debates with co-workers, customers and supervisors. Hey, you have to work with these people or see these customers again.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 — Dec. 21):

Parents must be patient with kids to avoid meltdowns. Likewise, romantic partners might suddenly argue because they need to prove a point. Basically, today is ripe for ego battles and power struggles.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 — Jan. 19):

Do what you can to keep the peace at home, especially with mom or with female family members. People’s egos can be so tender. Don’t hurt anyone’s feelings; and hopefully, someone will not hurt yours.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 — Feb. 18):

You’re too keen to make a point. If someone’s in error, you’ll correct them. If you think someone doesn’t grasp something, you want to educate them. This is a poor day to do this.

Pisces (Feb. 19 — March 20):

You might be upset about salary issues or perhaps about something you own? Whatever the case, arguments will only make people feel resentful.

If your birthday is today:

Actor Jason Gray-stanford (1970) shares your birthday. You’re a warm loving person with humanitarian instincts. You are confident, calm and strong. Exciting news! You’re entering a year of new beginnings! This means it’s time to identify your goals.
