Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except for food and gas) and important decisions from 10 a.m. until noon. After that, the moon moves from Aries into Taurus. (The new moon peaks in Aries at 6:52 a.m.)

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This might be the best day of the year to take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your image and the impression you make on your world. Hairstyle? Wardrobe? Shoes? Ideas?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

The new moon is the perfect time to contemplate your navel because you have lots to think about. You are now in a two-year window where you will let go of what is no longer relevant in your life — people, places and possessions. (And you’re the collector of the zodiac.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Each month the new moon is an opportunity to make resolutions. It’s the perfect time for you to think about friends as well as groups and organizations to which you might belong. You want to be with people who inspire and benefit you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

If you don’t have a goal for where you’re headed, others will make one for you. Life is like that because, as we all know, nature abhors a vacuum. This is a good day to think about where you want to be five years from now. What’s the plan?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have an excellent opportunity to think about what further education or training you might get to improve your job. Or what further travel or education might enrich your life.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Because each new moon offers a chance to set intentions, you should know it’s the best day all year for you to think about how to reduce your debt and how to get your affairs in order vis-à-vis taxes, insurance and wills.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is the perfect day to think how you can improve your closest relationships. (This is in your own best interests because your own happiness matters.) For a relationship to be successful, you must be as good for your partner as he or she is for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’re strong-willed and resourceful, which is why you’ll be glad to know it’s the best day of the year to make resolutions about how to stay healthy and improve your overall well-being. It’s also the perfect day to think how to work smarter.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

More than most signs, you are future-oriented. You’re always wondering what’s around the next corner. The new moon is an excellent day for you to think about how to use your creative talents. It’s also the perfect day to plan a future vacation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a fortuitous day for you because home and family are values you embrace — and the new moon is the best day of the year to think how you can enhance your relationships with family members, as well as how can you improve where you live.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

“From the thought, springs the word. From the word, springs the deed. The deed soon becomes habit; and habit eventually hardens into character.” Therefore, we must watch our thoughts. The new moon urges you to observe your daily thoughts — the future you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is an excellent day to think about your values — in other words, what really matters to you in life? If you don’t know what really matters, what will guide you when you have to make important decisions?
