ROYAL STARS
The day ahead: ★★★★★ = Dynamic; ★★★★ = Positive; ★★★ = Average; ★★ = So-so; ★ = Difficult
MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. today. After that, the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★ You will need to practice patience with family members today (especially Mom or female relatives) to avoid arguments and testy encounters. This is because the Moon is at odds with both your ruler, Mars, as well as Pluto. Oh yeah, this is a classic indication of power struggles. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★ This could be an accident-prone day because emotions like anger and irritation can make you distracted. This is because arguments with siblings, relatives and neighbors are likely. Someone will want to take control, and it might be you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★ Power struggles about financial matters might take place today. This could involve a group or an organization. These struggles also might involve who is responsible for what. Disputes about payments, bills or how to divide or share something (like an inheritance) might be at stake. CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★ Today it might be difficult to get along with partners, spouses and close friends without having a little dustup. This is because the Moon is in your sign and it is at odds with both Mars at the top of your chart, and Pluto, directly opposite your sign. This can create conflicts. Stay chill
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ Today, steer clear of controversial subjects — for example, politics, religion and racial issues. These issues can trigger arguments with others. Power struggles related to publishing, the media, the law and medicine also might take place. Oy!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★ Be gracious today and do your best to avoid an argument with a friend or a member of a group. Power struggles with others, especially about shared property or shared responsibilities, can arise. If you sit tight for 48 hours, this tension will pass. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Demonstrate grace under pressure today, especially when dealing with parents, bosses, VIPs or the police, because power struggles with people in authority are likely. Remember: Patience is the antidote to anger.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★ Hotheaded discussions about sensitive issues are likely today. In addition, work-related disputes also might be a problem. Some of you might lock horns with someone about an issue related to your pet.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★ Be careful about acting rashly today, especially regarding bills, shared property or inheritances. This might be something you will recklessly do because you feel irritable or emotionally upset. Even though you might have cause for your grievances, think before you act. (For your own good.)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★ Disputes with family members or close friends and partners (especially about some kind of chaos taking place at home) might arise today. You might be discouraged about something, and because of this, you deflect your disappointment into anger about something else. (Relax. We all do this.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ Let’s face it. This is a grumpy day. People are grumpy. Family members are grumpy. Cab drivers are grumpy. Co-workers are grumpy. Cashiers are grumpy. Bus drivers are grumpy. You get the picture. Deal with this as best you can with style. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★ This is a challenging day because financial disputes about vacations, social occasions or kids might arise today. Remember your objective: You want to be happy. Everyone wants to be happy. Stay chill.
