ARIES

(March 21-April 19)
★★★
Try to spend this day with people who have your best interests at heart. This will make today more meaningful for you. It’s also important to remember that you need more sleep now. And if you don’t get it, you’ll be cranky. (“Moi?” “Yes, you.”) Tonight: Chatty times.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)
★★★
Be aware of the limitations of the Moon Alert today. Avoid arguments in the morning, especially about controversial subjects. Later in the day, you’ll feel strong and powerful, and others will respect you because you’re charming and, at the same time, commanding. (Impressive.) Tonight: Financial opportunities.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)
★★★★
If you have strong ideas about shared property or how to divide something this morning, wait until the Moon Alert is over. After that, try to learn something new, meet new people or expand your world in some way. Travel, if possible. Tonight: You’re lucky.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)
★★★
Morning discussions with partners and close friends will be intense. Be fair. Later in the day, your focus will shift to issues about shared property, taxes and debt, especially how they impact home or family members. Family discussions and home repairs are likely. Tonight: Solitude.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★★
You might be determined to do something this morning to improve your health or your job, or maybe improve how you deal with a pet. (You’re on a mission.) Later in the day, be prepared to compromise with others. Be laissez faire and easygoing. Tonight: You’re popular.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
Be gentle when dealing with your kids this morning, because you might be obsessed about an idea. (It happens.) Later in the day, it will please you to get better organized. Alphabetize, color-code, sift, sort, recycle, sell or trash. Make lists. Create order from chaos. Then you will hum happily. Tonight: You’re admired.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★★
Be reasonable when talking to family members this morning. Later in the day, grab every chance to schmooze and enjoy yourself — the theater, the arts, happy hour, fun with friends, sports events and playful times with kids. Tonight: Learn and explore!

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★
Postpone decisions and shopping during the Moon Alert this morning. Later in the day, you’ll be happy to cocoon at home and relax among familiar surroundings. You might play hooky. You might watch daytime TV. Tonight: Check your finances.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★★
Avoid financial decisions or shopping this morning during the Moon Alert. After that, short trips and conversations with others will interest you. You’re keen to learn something new. And if you do, then you will be equally keen to share with others. Tonight: Warm interactions.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★
Don’t waste time arguing with others this morning. Many people will be obsessed about their ideas, about doing something or about getting their own way. Later in the day, focus on shopping or finances. Tonight: You feel vigorous and healthy.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★★
After the Moon Alert is over today the Moon will move into your sign to stay for the next two and a half days. Although this will make you a bit more emotional than usual, it will ever so slightly boost your good luck! Knowing that you have this edge, go after what you want. Tonight: Socialize! Enjoy the company of children.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★
Agree to nothing important when talking to friends or members of groups today, even if they’re trying to persuade you or insisting that you do something or listen to them. Stick to your guns. Later in the day, privacy and peace and quiet will appeal to you. Tonight: Relax or entertain at home.
