Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Caution. Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions from 3:15 a.m. until 8:15 p.m. After that, the moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

It’s tricky because the moon is in your financial house, which might encourage you to negotiate financial matters and discuss shared property, banking details, insurance issues and inheritances. However, there’s a moon alert. Postpone these discussions.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You have to go more than halfway when dealing with others because the moon is opposite your sign. (In two weeks, people will have to go more than halfway dealing with you, when the moon is in your sign.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You might want to get better organized. (Co-workers will be helpful.) However, there’s a moon alert in effect most of this day, which could create shortages, delays and lower energy. Just cover the basics.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Most of this day is a moon alert, which means you have fantastic opportunities to express your creative talents. Enjoy hobbies, arts and crafts. Enjoy socializing, especially sporting events and fun activities with kids.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

The sun is urging you to get out, shmooz, travel and learn something. Right now however, you might want to kick back and relax at home. Take it easy. It’s a poor day to shop or make important decisions. (Check moon alert above.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Indulge your eagerness to talk to others and share your ideas. People will enjoy talking to you because you know a lot — especially trivia. That’s what makes you so interesting. (Especially when you do dialects.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a strong time because the sun in your sign is recharging your batteries for the rest of year. Three planets are in your money house, making you think about buying beautiful things. Don’t do it now. Check the moon alert. Just make a list.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Three planets are in your sign, which is a powerhouse. Plus, Mars is high in your chart arousing your ambition. Basically, this is the kind of day where you can go after what you want. But not right now. There’s a moon alert in effect all day. (Just do your homework and fill your databank.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The day is a mixed bag. In one way, you feel sociable because you’re popular right now. People want to talk to you, and your involvement in groups and organizations is stronger than usual. However, another part of you wants to be low-key and keep things quiet. That might be the wise choice.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might have a heart-to-heart discussion with a female acquaintance or member of a group. (Keep in mind that you look good to everyone right now because the sun is casting you in a flattering spotlight.) Nevertheless, there’s a moon alert all day. Keep things light.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

People notice you. In fact, some people will know personal details about your private life. That’s just the way it is. Be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control. As there’s a moon alert all day, restrict spending to food and gas.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Avoid controversial subjects because they will amount to nothing due to the moon alert taking place all day. It will all be just be a lot of hot air. However, you can make progress at work or with any task you set for yourself. Get busy.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Singer, songwriter Paul Simon (1941) shares your birthday. You’re focused and direct. You’re also courageous and resourceful. This is a year of service (perhaps to family). Take care of yourself so you can be a resource for those who turn to you for guidance, comfort and courage. It might also be time for a personal makeover.
