Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Caution! Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions until after 6:30 p.m. today. After that, the moon moves from Cancer into Leo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Don’t expect much co-operation from partners, spouses and close friends. This is why you might feel cut off from others or a bit lonely. There’s the sense a gulf exists between you and everyone else. But this is temporary. Courage!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

If you’re working or dealing with health issues or your pet, you might encounter obstacles. Co-operation might not be forthcoming. If this is the case, it’s par for the course. Relax. Don’t make a big deal about things. Act later in the week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a tough day for social situations, especially romantic outings or connections with intimate partners. This includes sporting events and dealing with kids as well. Your best bet is to go along to get along and make as few waves as possible.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Your confidence might be low because you feel overwhelmed by authority figures in your family and private world. Fortunately, the moon is in your sign giving you a slight advantage. Furthermore, social outings will please you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

It might seem whatever you try to do meets with obstacles or objections from someone. (Is there no justice?) Keep your wits about you and pay attention while driving, jogging, walking and talking to others.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Financial issues might be stressful. Whatever it is you’re trying to do, whether it’s earning money or spending it, it seems something will trip you up or make things more difficult. Maybe it’s time to take a moment and think about balancing your needs and obligations?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

It’s important to get along with others because you value partnerships and close relationships. This is why the day is challenging. No matter what you do, you might feel cut off from someone or misunderstood. Things will be better next week. Relax.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It’s a good thing fair Venus is in your sign smoothing your communication style and making it easier for you to be patient, because issues related to your job, health or a pet are tough! It’s as if others are trying to test your patience. Easy does it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Go gently, because relations with friends, groups and even your kids are challenging. Take a step back and give the situation some breathing room. Don’t force your ideas on anyone. Listen to what they say and have faith things will be resolved in the coming week.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This not the day to question parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs or the police. In fact, you might want to give authority figures a wide berth to avoid conflict or confrontations. Obviously, this is not the day to ask for permission or approval. It is what it is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You will need all your diplomatic skills to avoid arguments with siblings, relatives and neighbours, because people are opinionated. Not only might someone disagree with you, they might want to block what it is you want to do. (No fair!)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a poor day to reach a consensus about financial matters because people refuse to agree to anything. In fact, they’ll be quick to tell you why you can’t do something. Fortunately, your ability to work hard will stand you in good stead.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Susan Sarandon (1946) shares your birthday. You’re gregarious and at ease with yourself. You’re levelheaded, relaxed and ambitious. This is a year of service for you, perhaps to family. Take care of yourself so you can be a resource for those who turn to you for comfort, guidance and courage. Time for a makeover?
