Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Cancer.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You have great help to finish writing projects, college papers and legal or medical matters this month while Mercury is retrograde. On the downside, Mercury retrograde could trigger travel delays and misunderstandings. Double-check details if you’re leaving town.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

The rest of this month is the perfect time to finish tasks related to taxes, debt, inheritances, shared property, loans and mortgages. This is because Mercury is retrograde, which can create delays and mistakes, but also help you wrap up old business.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

For the rest of this month, you might hear from ex-spouses, old partners and old friends. They might pop up in person, online or in your thoughts and dreams. For some, this could be a chance for closure. Others might rekindle a relationship.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Many things related to your job or daily tasks will be dogged by goofy mistakes, errors, delays, late shipments, mixed-up communications and missed appointments — need I go on? These are the classic ills of Mercury retrograde, which will last all month. Courage.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

For the rest of this month, Mercury will be retrograde in the part of your chart that encourages contact with old flames. Romantic partners from your past might appear in person, in your dreams or online. Likewise, children you haven’t seen for a while or old issues with your kids will resurface.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Mercury is your ruler and it will be retrograde for the rest of this month. Because of this, you can expect to hear from relatives and family members you haven’t been in contact with for some time. Stock the fridge. Be ready for anything. Someone might be camped on your doorstep.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Get ready. You might encounter goofy errors, mixed-up communications, missed appointments, late deliveries or meeting people from your past for the rest of this month — at least. This is because Mercury is retrograde in the part of your chart dealing with communications and daily activities. Good luck.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Keep an eye on your money and possessions, and double-check financial negotiations because Mercury retrograde will create delays and errors in these areas. If you’re at a restaurant or out shopping — check the bill. Keep your receipts. Cheques in the mail will be late.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Whoa Nellie. Mercury will be retrograde in your sign for the rest of this month. Expect to run into people from your past — ex-spouses, partners or old friends. Misplaced items, confused communications and silly mistakes might dog your steps. But (good news) you can also finish up old business.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The rest of this month is actually an excellent time for you to do research of any kind because you will easily dig up answers and find solutions to old problems. There will be “looping backwards” in your life that helps you to finish old business.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Friendships are important to you, and for the rest of this month, Mercury is retrograde in your house of friendships triggering contact with old faces you haven’t seen for a while. Look your best so you can make a great impression.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Mercury will be retrograde at the top of your chart for the rest of this month, which will attract opportunities for you to run into old bosses, parents and authority figures you haven’t seen for a while. This could be good — or not. Be aware of this.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Eric Dane (1972) shares your birthday. You are perceptive, intellectual and socially responsible. You like to get involved in many fields and causes. This is a slower-paced year. It’s OK to rest and take time to rejuvenate your energy. Seek out people who are kind, helpful and have your back. Concentrate on your needs and what makes you happy.
