MOON ALERT After 7 a.m. we have the all clear to shop and make important decisions. The moon is in Leo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is a fabulously creative day for you! Your talented imagination and technical abilities (Aries is the artisan of the zodiac) will create something artistic, or something creative related to your job, or both. You can definitely improve something today, including your health.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You're full of bright ideas about home improvements today -- ideas that could use electronics and technology for your kids, or a home entertainment centre. A fridge right next to your 60-inch flat screen? Hmmm. Brain cells come and brain cells go but fat cells stay forever.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Genius-like ideas are bouncing out of your brain today making your words a steady chatter of clever, innovative suggestions. You might see new uses for something you already own or improvements at home, especially to bathrooms, plumbing or recycling and garbage areas.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Trust your money-making ideas today because you're extremely resourceful. You might see ways to make money on the side or ways to find a new job. If you have to pitch your thoughts to anyone, you'll be persuasive and successful. (Good day to do this.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You're energized both physically and intellectually today because you see exciting possibilities to do what you want to do. You might also generate new ways to earn money. Those of you who are shopping today might buy something that transforms or improves you or your environment.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your appearance, your image in the world and even your style of relating to others. The potential for this totally exists today. Maintain a discriminating, discerning eye.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Conversations with females in group settings will be vigorous and possibly competitive today. New suggestions might catch you off guard. If this is the case, be open to them because today is full of lots of fresh possibilities. Perhaps you have to change how you see the world? (And then your world itself changes.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

People notice your vibrant energy today. This is why you'll be effective in groups making creative suggestions and getting others to go along with your ideas. Artistic types, in particular, will like what you have to say. (Hey, you just want to improve things.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might develop a crush on your boss or a VIP. Or someone in authority might ask for your creative input about something. You're definitely ready for something "different" because you want adventure, escape and something new to happen!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

If possible, make plans to travel or do something radically different today because you feel passionate about wanting to introduce change into your life. In fact, some of you will do this by getting a crush on a person from a different background or another culture. Ole!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You can definitely benefit from the wealth and resources of others today. Keep your pockets open because goodies might come your way. Meanwhile, back in the boudoir, romance could get hot and heavy! (When preparing a dish for bedtime, champagne is the best tenderizer.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Relations with partners and close friends are passionate and intense today. This includes romantic liaisons as well as professional relationships. Perhaps you're excited because you see new, innovative (and possibly, high-tech) improvements at work. You will attract positive attention to yourself today.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY

Actor Tony Shalhoub (TV's Monk) (1953) shares your birthday. People sense your down-to-earth humanity because you invariably lead with your heart rather than your head. You're a shrewd observer of society and the people around you. You are multi-talented, inspirational and highly sensitive. You often guide or influence others, whether you are aware of this or not. A lovely, social year ahead awaits you. All relationships will be blessed.
