Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Caution! Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions from 9:15 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. today. After that, the moon moves from Taurus into Gemini.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Be aware of the limitations of the moon alert as it is taking place in your money house. Guard against temptations to shop and buy things. Be wise and restrict your spending to food and gas until after the moon alert is over. (See above.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This day might feel loosey-goosey and indecisive because the moon alert is in your sign. (“What should I do next?”) Although this promotes creativity and lighthearted socializing with others, it’s a poor time to make realistic financial decisions. Oops.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Most of the time, I believe in trusting your gut instincts. However, right now, your instincts might lead you astray because of the moon alert. Keep your wits about you. Deal with delays and goofy mistakes at work. Postpone shopping and decisions until the moon alert is over.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is a lovely day to shmooz with friends and groups! You’ll also enjoy fun outings with kids, as well as sporting events. Meanwhile, for many of you, old flames are back on the scene. (This could be exciting or horrifying.) Check the moon alert. (See above.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’re still high-viz, which means people notice you more than usual. Right now however, the moon alert is taking place at the top of your chart, which means your poor decisions and choices will be public! Wait until the moon alert is over to act.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a fun day to explore your surroundings. Be a tourist in your own city. Learn something new. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Reach out and talk to neighbours as well as people from other cultures. However, don’t shop. Avoid important decisions. (See moon alert!)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a tricky day because the moon alert is taking place in the part of your chart that deals with shared property, taxes, debt, inheritances and insurance issues. All that red-tape stuff. Do your homework but take no action when it comes to financial negotiations.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Conversations with partners, spouses and close friends might feel like two ships passing in the night as the moon alert occurs directly opposite your sign. Mixed signals and misinterpretations will be classic. Above all, don’t volunteer or agree to anything important.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’ll enjoy seeing old friends and groups from your past. However, the moon alert will rob you of some of your efficiency when it comes to your job or daily tasks. Sit this one out. Do your homework and fill your databank. But don’t act.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a wonderful, creative day for you! Artists can be productive producing art. Any of you will enjoy appreciating art as well as social engagement with others, including children and sporting events. Have fun!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You will be best served relaxing at home and keeping a low profile, especially as most of this day is a moon alert. Don’t volunteer for anything within the family. Don’t agree to anything important. Just coast.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You want to get out and talk to others to share your ideas and possibly teach or persuade people of your way of thinking. However, most of this day is a moon alert. Don’t end up making a commitment you later regret.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor, comedian, screenwriter John Cleese (1939) shares your birthday. You’re imaginative, whimsical, rational and practical. You express yourself immediately and passionately. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships and make sure you hang out with people who have your back — those who are kind and helpful.
