YOUR HOROSCOPE Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

All signs

Moon Alert: After 8 a.m. today, we have the “all clear” to shop and do business. The Moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Because you feel sympathetic to others today, especially someone who might be less fortunate than you, you will go more than halfway when deciding how to share something or divide an inheritance.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a good day for important discussions with partners and close friends, especially if the relationship has been strained recently. That’s because people feel mutually sympathetic toward each other today and they’re willing to listen to each other’s point of view.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

A co-worker might come to you with a problem today. Perhaps they want a sympathetic ear or they need some advice? Possibly, you are the one who wants a bit of counselling from someone.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You are in touch with your muse today, which is why you are full of creative, imaginative ideas. You also feel sympathetic to a child or the needs of children in general.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Family discussions will go well today because people are concerned about the welfare of each other. If you can help a family member today, you will. Meanwhile make sure your ideas about home improvements and repairs are doable and realistic.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your imagination is in overdrive today, which is why you are full of creative ideas. Write them down because they don’t always come your way. Your focus on money continues. However today, you are definitely tempted to buy something elegant, luxurious and pricey. If you can afford it — great.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You will listen with genuine concern to someone today because you feel sympathetic to others. In fact, if you have a chance to help someone who is less fortunate, you will do so. The Dalai Lama said, “If you want others to be happy — be compassionate. If you want to be happy — be compassionate.”

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Solitude in beautiful surroundings will appeal to you today, especially if you can get room service. You might also be concerned with someone or a group who are disenfranchised or suffering.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

One of the reasons you are popular right now is others can sense your sympathy and receptivity to what is going on around you. If someone has a problem, they know you will listen.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might use your influence with someone in a position of power or even your own personal influence to help someone who needs assistance or comfort. Not only is this the decent thing to do, it’s also wise because what goes around, comes around.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You have strong feelings of escapism today. That’s why you want to run away and join the circus. If possible, indulge this need in little ways. Treat yourself to something special at lunch. At some point today, do something different.
