MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or big decisions from 6 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. EDT today (3 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have:

★★★★★ Dynamic

★★★★ Positive

★★★ Average

★★ So-so

★ Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

★★★★

Today is a day for you to work hard and party hard! But mostly you want to party, at least in a low-key way. Do be aware that confusion about your pet, your job or your health might be a factor.

This Week: Time to get organized.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★

Today you will enjoy relaxing at home. However, romantic relationsh­ips are subject to confusion and disappoint­ment. Be aware.

This Week: Enjoy vacations, sports and social events!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★★

Today the Moon is still in your sign at odds with Neptune and dancing nicely with the Sun. Basically, this makes everything fine and secure. Neverthele­ss, discussion­s with authority figures might be like two ships passing in the night. Be clear in your communicat­ions.

This Week: Entertain at home. Focus on family.

CANCER ( June 21-July 22)

★★★★

You might spend time today daydreamin­g or being lost in flights of fantasy, which is quite all right. We all need to do this from time to time. Neverthele­ss, don’t be so distracted that things that matter are ignored or missed. Something going on behind the scenes is a bit fuzzy.

This Week: A busy pace with short trips and errands.

LEO ( July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★

This is a lovely day to schmooze. Having said that, do be wary of decisions about money, finances and your possession­s. Make sure everything is clearly understood. Make sure you’re not expected to pick up the tab — as usual.

This Week: Ponder moneymakin­g ideas; plus, shop for a wardrobe.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★

Conversati­ons with partners and close friends are confusing today. Factoid. Meanwhile, you are highviz, so people notice you more than usual. If you think there’s something fishy going on, there is! This Week: You are empowered! Time to rejuvenate.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★★

Today you might be dealing with secrets and hidden informatio­n because something is going on behind the scenes. Relations with friends and groups will be positive and reinforcin­g. However, something to do with your work, a pet or your health might be confusing. Be aware of this.

This Week: Take a backseat and ponder your goals.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★

The expectatio­ns of a friend or a group might not be clear to you. Well, if this is the case, speak up. Find out what others expect of you. Don’t leave people guessing. Likewise, make sure they know what you mean.

This Week: You’re popular!

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★

Go gently today. Travel if you can. See new people and explore new ideas. However, be aware that partners and close friends might not be on the same page as you. Make no assumption­s.

This Week: You impress everyone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★

This is a classic day for confused communicat­ions, especially due to an assumption that people make.

This Week: Travel and explore!

AQUARIUS ( Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★

Be extra clear in discussion­s about responsibi­lities for others as well as shared property, shared money and shared expenses. Put your cards on the table.

This Week: Be the best that you can be.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★★

Today you can work efficientl­y and get a lot done. Neverthele­ss, conversati­ons with partners and close friends might be confusing.

This Week: Close relationsh­ips matter.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

You are intelligen­t, independen­t and creative. You have strong moral values and high expectatio­ns for yourself. You are fun-loving, skilled and talented. This is a strong year for you because you will get recognitio­n that you deserve for past efforts. Expect awards, a promotion, kudos and acknowledg­ements. Bravo!
