Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Taurus.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Tread carefully because you’re eager to get out and talk to others. In fact, short trips and an opportunity to teach and share your ideas will please you. Nevertheless, you might be touchy about money matters or something you own. Practise patience.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

The moon is in your sign, which can give you a slight advantage over all the other signs; however, it is lined up with fiery Mars, which can make you easily irritable. You might not show it — but you will feel it. Be reasonable. Fake it to get by.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Strong feelings might be building up within you behind the scenes or in a secretive way. (You might be aware of this; you might not be.) However, this is why you might feel easily irritated or quick to anger. This is a fleeting influence. Stay chill.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’ll need to be patient with a friend or even a member of a group because you might feel reactive. Perhaps you are too quick to jump to conclusions. Perhaps you are too quick to take offence. Well, you are a sensitive sign. We know this.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

When talking to VIPs, bosses, parents and people in authority, you might be challenged because either they are a bit angry or you are. Either way, don’t do anything to get into their bad books because what’s the upside to that? Tomorrow is a fine day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

In discussions with others, if you drift into controversial subjects an argument might break out because you have strong feelings about things, especially on issues important to you. Why not avoid controversy, thereby avoiding anything nasty?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Use your skilful means to avoid arguments about shared property, joint responsibilities, taxes or debt. You might still feel angry but you don’t have to get involved with someone to make matters worse. Be cool. After all, you want to have a happy day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are a passionate sign and can have strong reactions. The moon is opposite your sign lined up with Mars, which means you might be easily irritated by someone close to you — a spouse, partner or close friend. Knowing this annoyance is temporary, deal with it gracefully.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Remember that you need more sleep this month. And now in particular, you might feel angry or irritated with a co-worker, a customer or someone related to your job or any task you set for yourself. Cool your jets so you can accomplish as much as possible without being upset.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Parents will have to be extra patient when dealing with their kids. Likewise, romantic partners will have to be patient in dealing with each other. For that matter, anyone involved in the arts, sporting events and the hospitality industry will have to practise patience. Don’t blow your top.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Do what you can to keep the family peace because this will benefit everyone, including yourself. This is a playful day. Look for opportunities to shmooz. Get out and make things happen. It’s a big world.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is the classic day to give in to irritation when talking to siblings, relatives and neighbours. Don’t do this. Why be miserable? Display fortitude. Take the high road — the view is better. This way you’re happier, and so is everyone else.
