Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except food and gas) or major decisions after 3:30 p.m. The moon is in Aquarius.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

When dealing with friends and groups, you’ll be leader of the pack. This suits you just fine because you know the lead dog has the clearest view. Possibly, some of you will attract someone who is powerful, focused and a natural leader. Either way, this is a lively day for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

People see you as courageous and confident. Because you seem to understand what is needed in a situation, you might assume the role of leadership in a group. Certainly, you will radiate inner excitement and energy that others will feel.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

The prospect of travelling somewhere exciting might make you feel stoked. Your energy level is high and you want to do something different. You want adventure. You want to see new places and discover novel ideas. You might also be excited by a flirtation with someone “different.”

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’ll be confident and strong if you need to defend your position regarding disputes about shared property, inheritances or anything jointly held with someone else — including debt. This might also relate to costly improvements taking place at home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might attract someone strong and assertive to you. In part, this is because you’re powerful and persuasive in your communications with others right now. Expect a lively discussion. Fortunately, with Venus in your sign, you’re smooth and charming.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’ll be productive at work because you’re confident, focused and energetic. Actually, any kind of physical labour or exercise will appeal to you because you have energy built up within you and it needs somewhere to go.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are in touch with your muse, which is why you will delight at every opportunity to appreciate beauty and express your artistic talents to others. However, this same influence can also translate into energetic socializing — especially romantic flirtations.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Enjoy your current popularity, especially with younger people. With Venus at the top of your chart, bosses and authority figures will also admire you. People want your advice about how to make something look better. Despite all this, you might choose to hide your talents under a bushel.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You can sell anyone the Brooklyn Bridge because your optimism, energy and positive dazzle will intrigue others. However, this is also an excellent day to start new projects, especially short-term endeavours. Your energy is high and you want results.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’re willing to work hard to boost your earnings. Perhaps you want to start something new and convince others to join you in your plans. Your confidence is strong now and whether you’re boosting your income or spending it, you know what you want to achieve.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The moon is in your sign dancing beautifully with fiery Mars, giving you direct, forceful confidence. People will respect you. You might become leader of a group. It’s a great day to start projects. It’s also a wonderful time to use your energy to tackle any venture that requires physical labour.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might feel unsettled because something going on behind the scenes can’t be ignored. In fact, the energy is disquieting and distracting to you. Work with what is flowing well for you and that is your interaction with co-workers. Likewise, your interactions with kids are also excellent.
