Today's Horoscope

MOON ALERT We have the all clear today to shop (whether you spend $10 or $10 million) and make important decisions. The moon is in Leo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Yay! This is a romantic, fun-loving day. Sure, old flames are back in your life but that might add a little pizzazz, no? This is a wonderful day to shmooz, party, enjoy the company of others, watch sports, grab a movie -- whatever. Cheers!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Because family relations are warm and friendly today, this is a perfect day to entertain at home. It's also an excellent day to explore real-estate opportunities. (Good day to talk to a parent.) Invite someone over.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You'll enjoy meeting new faces and seeing new places because any kind of social interaction will delight you today. Romance or casual friendships are pleasant. It's easy to show others that you care for them. (You also feel a bit self-indulgent, and why not?)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is an excellent day for business and commerce. It's also a good day to invest in art or beautiful objects. If shopping, you'll buy beautiful treasures for yourself and loved ones. Note: Your money-making ideas could pay off.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Lucky you! The moon is in your sign bringing you some extra good luck. Furthermore, it's dancing with fair Venus, which promotes warm, social relationships all around you. You'll enjoy beautiful spaces, warm faces and happy times. It's a feel-good day. (Almost gushy.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will be delighted if you can grab a little solitude in beautiful surroundings today. (Preferably with something delicious to eat or drink.) Although this is a social day for most signs and you are no exception, a few moments of private time will be restorative and rejuvenating.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A confidential conversation with a female friend will be warm and reassuring today. In fact, plans to travel or do something with a partner could be fun. Discussions about publishing, the media, medicine, the law and higher education -- with a female acquaintance -- will be meaningful.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Some aspect of your private life will be public today. Certain details might be revealed. Fortunately, it looks like you won't mind because you are cast in a good light. Although, by nature you are secretive, so be careful what you might reveal. You're not the tell-all type. (Hardly.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Indulge yourself by doing something out of the ordinary today. Break with your daily routine. Go someplace you've never been before or talk to people from other backgrounds. Be a tourist in your own city or better yet, travel somewhere. You want adventure and the chance to discover something new.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a good day to sit down with others and discuss how to deal with shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt or insurance matters. Disputes about these areas can be quickly smoothed over. People are co-operative, even friendly. (And romance is hot and sexy!)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Because there is an easy give-and-take with others today, especially partners and close friends, this is a good day to bury the hatchet. Obviously, it's a good day to shmooz with others and just have a good time. It's also a good day to begin new partnerships, especially related to sports, children, show business or the hospitality industry

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

It's easy to get along with co-workers today. Make the most of this by offering your services or, in turn, asking for a favour from someone else. You'll be surprised at how co-operative others will be. A work-related flirtation could be interesting. (They always are.)

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY

Actress Sandra Oh (1971) shares your birthday today. You're a curious combination of a wild adventurer and yet, a practical realist. You vacillate between stagnant complacency and excessive thrills. You need to be active but your practical mind always guides you. You're very reliable working with others and also very patient. A major change will take place in the coming year, perhaps as significant as something that occurred around 2003.
