Today’s horoscope

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Enjoy socializing with others. Play hooky if you can. Sporting events and fun activities with kids will appeal. Romance is also favoured. (However, since many of you are gung-ho to work right now, you probably won’t play hooky. Just coast a bit.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You have a strong sense of personal freedom, which is why you want to do what you want. Obviously, daily obligations — professional or personal — might restrict this impulse. However, you will call the shots for yourself as much as possible.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Make an effort to enjoy time with friends. Likewise, enjoy your interactions with clubs, groups and organizations, because this will please you. It doesn’t have to be super-involved because primarily, your focus now is on home and family. Socialize, if you can.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

People notice you, which is something to keep in mind, in case you have to do some damage control. In particular, this applies to authority figures — bosses, parents, VIPs and the police. (“Busted!”) In other words, don’t push your luck.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have a strong sense of adventure, which is why travel will appeal. Do what you can to feel stimulated by a change in your daily routine. See new places, meet new faces! If you can’t travel, explore your own city by doing something different.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Financial discussions about inheritances, shared property or banking details will go well. With both the sun and Mercury in your sign, you have an advantage — so, why not use it? Some of you might be involved in a hidden pleasure — perhaps even a secret love affair?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Physical exercise, gym workouts, long walks and dancing are ways to channel some of the energy that might be building up within you because Mars is in your sign. Fortunately, relations with friends and groups are excellent. Be accommodating with partners and close friends.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a popular time for you, with both with friends and organizations to which you might belong; and you’re happy to put the emotional considerations of others before your own. You might perform a service for others or help someone. (This makes you look good in the eyes of your associates, and good press is never shabby.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a lovely day to travel or do something different and stimulating, because you want to shake things up a bit. A short trip or a chance to learn something fascinating will bring you pleasure. Physical athletics, competition and teamwork with others will appeal. You don’t want to sit around getting dusty.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your ambition is strong, and you’ve been active lately. You might want to pull in your reins and hide at home. Perhaps it will give you pleasure to tweak your digs and make things look more attractive. You might want to invite a friend over? Pamper yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a great day to shmooz! You feel friendly and have a strong urge to explore, learn new things and see new places. Travel if you can, because this will please you. Discussions about financial matters, including shared property, are likely.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your finances are favoured, which is why you might see ways to boost your earnings, or you might make a purchase that pleases you. Some of you will make your work space more attractive. Certainly, work colleagues will be helpful.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Hugh Grant (1960) shares your birthday. You’re inquisitive, nurturing and innovative. You have humanitarian values. Take inventory of your life this year. It’s the end of a cycle, which means it’s time to let go of people, places and things that have held you back. Being compassionate and giving will bring rewards.
