HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, July 27, 2022: You are friendly, upbeat and warm when dealing with others. You are also observant and alert. People like your cheerful playfulness. This year you are working hard to build important foundations in your life.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★ Be patient with family members today, especially female relatives (this includes Mom), because this entire week is challenging for relations with others. People are quick to argue! Situations are volatile! Be smart. Be nice to family and relatives. Tonight: Play!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★ It’s important to be aware that fiery Mars is in your sign for the next four weeks. This happens only once every two years, and when it occurs, it makes you aggressive, energetic and active! Tonight: Cocoon.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★ Disputes with others might arise today, or perhaps they are arguments about something that you own or something related to your earnings. Because you are tempted to spend money on beautiful things for yourself and loved ones, someone might object to a recent purchase. Stay calm and keep your receipts. Tonight: Eager discussions.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★ Today the Moon is in your sign opposing Pluto, which is a strong indication that you’ll have power struggles with others. Tonight: Check your money.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ You are empowered now, because both the Sun and Mercury are in your sign. This makes you confident and articulate — ready to state your views to anyone. Nevertheless, today something going on behind the scenes might put you off. Just let it pass. (Drink lots of water.) Tonight: You win!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ Power struggles with a friend or a member of a group are likely today, especially with a female. Perhaps this is about goals or ideologies, or the direction or mandate of a club or a group, especially a nonprofit association. Sometimes you have to go along to get along. Tonight: Enjoy solitude.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★ Power struggles with bosses, parents or the police might take place today. Fortunately, your ruler Venus is high in your chart, and this will increase your ability to be diplomatic and charming. (Never underestimate the power of courtesy.) Tonight: Schmooze!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★ Powerful forces are at work today, which is why you might have an intense encounter with someone, especially about issues in the media or something to do with politics, religion or race. Whatever happens, these will reveal the inner workings of you both. Tonight: You are noticed.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★ Get your facts straight before you go out on a limb or argue issues related to shared property, inheritances or insurance disputes, because these kinds of power struggles might take place today. Do your homework so you’re prepared to defend yourself with facts. Tonight: Explore!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★ When dealing with a friend, partner or spouse today, you might encounter guilt, jealousy or over-possessiveness — all that nasty stuff. Basically, it’s probably about power and control. Try to be objective. With encounters like this, there are no winners. Tonight: Organize paperwork.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ Heated debates about issues at work might take place today. They might be about introducing reforms or better ways of doing things, while others resist because they like the way things have always been done. Or you might disagree with someone about a health-related issue. Tonight: Cooperate.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★ Quarrels or difficulties dealing with your kids are something you might encounter today. Or perhaps you experience a power struggle about a social situation — how something is done, when you leave, where you go, who picks up the tab, that sort of thing. Cope as best you can and be gracious. Tonight: Get organized.
