HOROSCOPE

Moon Alert: We have the “all clear” today to do business (whether $10 or $10 million) and make important decisions. The Moon is in Scorpio.

Aries (March 21-April 19) You love to explore and try things with your hands. In the month ahead, your appreciation of art will grow. See art exhibits, galleries and beautiful buildings. Enjoy concerts. Travel for pleasure. Someone from another culture might appeal.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Gifts, goodies and favours from others will come your way in the next month because you have the power to attract money and resources. Good time to ask for a loan or financial support. Meanwhile, romance in the bedroom will be memorable. (Could be other rooms as well.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Fair Venus moves opposite your sign today to stay for the next month enhancing all your relationships. It will even improve relations with your enemies. Basically, you’ll find it easier to express your affection for others and what an icebreaker that is.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You’ll feel uplifted if you feel you can help others and make a difference in someone else’s life in the next month. You might also get a raise or praise at work. In addition, you will want to make your workplace more attractive. (A crush on a co-worker might begin.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your month ahead is about the arts, the entertainment world, show business, expressing your creative talents and enjoying playful activities with children. Romance and love affairs will be blessed. Make plans for fun date nights and delightful getaways. It’s time to kick up your heels!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Stock the fridge because you want to entertain in the next month. Do some redecorating to make the place look great. Invite family over for good food and drink because you’ll enjoy laughter and congenial company. (A rabbi, a priest and a pastor walk into a bar. The bartender says, “Is this a joke?”)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) In the next month, relations with siblings, relatives and neighbors will be warm and friendly. You will discover how much affection there is in your daily world. Hey, let others know that you care. Don’t leave it up to their imagination. Everyone likes to feel loved and appreciated.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) “Show me the money!” Financial negotiations are favoured in the next six weeks. You might feel so flush, you’ll buy beautiful clothes, jewelry and art objects. (“I just had to have it.”) Investments can be advantageous.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) With fair Venus in your sign for the next month, you will make peace with your enemies and charm your friends. Enjoy vacations, entertaining diversions and long lunches because pleasure ranks above work. Great time to buy wardrobe goodies because you like what you see in the mirror. (“I’m hot!”) Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Solitude in beautiful surroundings will appeal in the next four-to-six weeks. Many of you will be selfless in your devotion to someone or a cause. Needless to say, this will bring you great personal satisfaction and spiritual rewards.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) The next six weeks are delightful because relations with friends and groups will be pleasant and congenial. You feel secure in yourself and willing to help a worthy cause. Friendships will bring love and love will bring friendships. (Yeah, sounds kinda corny. But it’s true.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You make a great impression on important people in the next month. Everyone thinks are the cat’s meow. Obviously, this is the time to demand the advantage and ask for favours. Push through your proposal. Meanwhile, others might ask your advice about design, layout work, office redecorating - anything.

If Your Birthday Is Today TV personality Simon Cowell (1959) shares your birthday today. You are strongly committed to whatever you believe and even if others oppose you, this will not dissuade you. In part, this is because you are a rebellious, independent thinker. You don’t mince words, you fight for what you believe is right, especially your ideals. This year a change might take place, perhaps as significant as something that occurred around 2004.
