MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions after 9 p.m. today. The moon is in Scorpio.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Although mild quarrels might arise about how to share the expense of something — don’t let this rankle you. Instead focus on socializing, the arts, sports and fun activities with kids. This is a great day to shmooz!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Tread carefully when talking to family members, spouses, partners and close friends, because things are tense. Furthermore, Mars in your house of communications makes you more aggressive. Pull in your reins a bit. Keep things light.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

There are two options available to you, which is quite appropriate for a Gemini (the twins). You can get caught up in squabbles with siblings, relatives, neighbours and work colleagues; or you can play hooky and have fun doing whatever you want. (No-brainer.)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Romantic partners must be patient with each other. Likewise, parents must be patient with their kids. Meanwhile, it’s the perfect day to redecorate and tweak your digs. You might even entertain. Get some physical exercise. (Even dancing for three minutes.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

The sun, Mercury and Jupiter are in your sign; however, the moon is at odds with the sun triggering domestic arguments and tension with people at home. Fortunately, fair Venus in your house of communications will smooth your words. Dish out the sweetness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Something going on behind the scenes might make you feel disgruntled. This mood might affect how you speak to others. Not good. Instead, throw your energy into interacting with friends, groups and organizations. You might also buy something beautiful.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This continues to be a great time for you to buy wardrobe items, which is not a bad idea because you like to present well. Did you know the sign of Libra has domain over haute couture? This is why you always look good. Avoid money squabbles. Use your energy to work.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The moon is in your sign at odds with the sun — right at the top of your chart. This means you should avoid quarrels and power struggles with bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Instead dabble in secret love affairs or explore avenues in travel, medicine, the law and publishing. Stay out of trouble.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Steer clear of controversial subjects, because they will irk you. (Naturally, you have opinions.) Instead, decide to have fun with a friend or group. Explore new ideas and try to learn something novel. It’s also a passionate day. Hmmm.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Avoid squabbles with a friend. Likewise, don’t get caught up fighting with a member of a group, because what’s the point? The day is challenging, because even partners and close friends might annoy you. Instead, focus on goals, career and chalking up some brownie points with bosses, parents and authority figures.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

There’s a high probability you might have a public argument with someone; in fact, you might be at odds with a boss, parent, teacher, VIP or the police. This is not a good idea. The upside is not favourable. Your best option is to work hard and get organized. That’s a winning choice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don’t get bogged down in arguments about politics, religion or racial issues, which is easy to do! Instead, focus on socializing with others, exploring sports, enjoying playful times with kids and expressing your creative talents. Great choice.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Fashion designer Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel (1883-1971) shares your birthday. You’re dynamic, focused and organized. You present a serious face to the world and have a desire to change society. This is a year of new beginnings, adventures and major changes. Grab new opportunities and be ready to act. What you do now will bring great benefits in the future.

Selkirk physiotherapist Pachal looks to finish strong at Natural Strongman Worlds

Grace Penner 5 minute read 5:55 PM CDT

Over 250 competitors from 20 countries will descend on Paisley, Scotland, this week for the Natural Strongman Worlds. There the athletes will meet personal goals, test their endurance over a multiple-day event, and a winner from both the men’s and women’s division will be crowned the fittest of them all.

Selkirk’s own Tom Pachal will be competing in the under 80-kilogram weight class. Pachal has been surrounded by the fitness lifestyle his whole career, multitasking as a physiotherapist and owning the Iron Image Barbell Club in Selkirk.

“I’m very involved in the health, wellness, fitness, (and) rehabilitation community. I love being an overall active person and helping others,” Pachal said.

Starting off as a power lifter, Pachal was excited to transition over to the Strongman competitions, something that was less repetitive and more unpredictable.

City rescinds Balmoral Street property owner’s order to clean up encampment

Scott Billeck 3 minute read Yesterday at 5:35 PM CDT

A West Broadway landlord is off the hook for clearing a large riverbank encampment after the City of Winnipeg rescinded an order threatening to stick him with the cleanup bill.

Marvin Sharp, CEO of Astroid Management Ltd., which operates the Pen-Eve Apartments at 35 Balmoral St., said he received a call from the city Tuesday letting him know the order has been cancelled.

In a statement from the city, an official said the order was shelved due to an existing and active easement on the property.

“We have been communicating with the property owner throughout this process and they have been informed of this development,” a spokesperson said.

Two men in electric ankle bracelets who were being monitored by justice officials have been accused in a two-month spree of commercial break-ins, vehicle thefts and other property crimes.

City police have charged one of the suspects and are searching for the second.

About $140,000 worth of property, including trailers, lawn equipment, motorcycles and bicycles, was reported stolen in 13 incidents in Winnipeg and the Rural Municipality of Headingley between April 20 and June 28, the Winnipeg Police Service said.

Both suspects were wearing electronic monitoring bracelets during that time.

Edmonton not the same old Elks as Bombers get ready for road clash

Taylor Allen 6 minute read 7:04 PM CDT

Edmonton’s CFL team has been a complete, utter mess for the majority of the past decade.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers took full advantage of their once-prominent West Division foe falling on hard times by shellacking them time and time again.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane, shall we?

The Blue and Gold defeated the Elks three times in a span of five weeks in 2021 — including a 30-3 beatdown on Chancellor Matheson Road on Oct. 8.
