Today’s horoscope

MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except food and gas) or important decisions from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. After that, the moon moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You might need to fast from news because the media, foreign countries, publishing or higher education might depress you. You might be disappointed in the reception your work receives. This is a fleeting dark cloud on your horizon. Relax.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You are the financial wizard of the zodiac and news about inheritances, shared property, taxes or debt might disappoint. This is temporary. Actually, you make a great impression on everyone right now. Work with this. Plus, relations with younger, creative people are excellent.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Be patient with partners, spouses and close friends even if they’re cold or insensitive. (In fact, separations might even occur.) It’s just a temporary thing. This is a fleeting influence. Do not succumb to it. Gone by this evening.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Don’t ask bosses, supervisors or authority figures for permission or approval if it is connected with your work, health or a pet. The answer will probably be, “Talk to the hand.” People are tough to deal with. They seem to be insensitive to your needs. Grrr. (It’s temporary.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Romance is in the toilet this morning. Even relations with your kids are strained. Rise above these difficulties because they are temporary. By this evening, things will look different. Take the high road — the view is better.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Family discussions might disappoint this morning, especially with a parent or an older family member. You might feel criticized, misunderstood or dismissed. Some people will separate. Let this go because the negativity is gone by this evening.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

“Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.” Try not to fall into negative thinking, which is easy to do. Be comforted by the fact this gloom will disappear by tonight. Keep smiling.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Financial matters look discouraging. This could pertain to your salary, cash flow or a financial deal you might anticipate. It might even relate to a purchase. “Why is there so much month left at the end of the money?” Stay strong because by evening things look different.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This morning the moon is in your sign at odds with stern Saturn, which makes people feel lonely and out of touch with each other. Life will look worse than it is. Relationships are stressed and some will separate. But this is temporary. By evening it’s a different story. Go figure.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Although this morning might be a struggle, later, after the moon moves into your sign, things end up in a lovely, positive way. Discussions with relatives, siblings and neighbours will be warm and reassuring. Earlier in the day, just keep the faith.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Don’t worry if you feel disappointed in a friend or member of a group this morning because this is due to a negative influence everyone feels. People seem to be cold, insensitive and uncaring. Just wait this out because later in the day you’ll have a warm feeling in your tummy. Trust me.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don’t ask for permission or approval from an authority figure this morning. It won’t go well. Later in the day, after the moon changes signs, relations with friends and groups are warm and friendly. People want to see you and you want to see them.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Josh Brolin (1968) shares your birthday. You’re a natural leader with concern for social justice. You’re objective and progressive. You appreciate the finer things in life. This is a year of service, perhaps to family. Take care of yourself so you can be a resource to those who turn to you for guidance, comfort and encouragement.
