Today’s horoscope

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Steer clear of controversial subjects such as politics, religion and racial issues if you want to keep your peace of mind. Everyone around you is looking for an argument, especially on these topics. People are opinionated, often due to an unconscious sense of internal inadequacy. Don’t mess with them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This week begins with touchy conversations about shared property and finances. Your efforts to clarify something with a friend or group might be met with hostility and closed doors. Someone older might accuse you of something or create difficulties for you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is not the day to ask bosses, parents or people in authority for approval or permission because their response will likely be, “Talk to the hand.” Be smart and sit this one out. Conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbours might be more understanding.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Relations with co-workers, health-care workers and people who might be involved with the care of your pet are just some of the challenges you will face. Don’t expect others to co-operate with you. Knowing this ahead of time, don’t push your luck. Easy does it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

The moon is in your sign, which makes you more emotional than usual. Indeed, conversations with your kids and romantic partners, as well as dealing with social outings will be difficult. In fact, their remarks might embody the essence of your own worst suspicions about yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Interactions with partners, close friends and family members are truly challenging because people are short-tempered and grumpy. It’s as if they’re chafing under some kind of nasty rules or restrictions and don’t know how to speak up. (This might be true.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Don’t be too aggressive with siblings, relatives and daily contacts because you might regret it. Be patient while walking, jogging and driving. Even then, your daily interactions might incur insults and expressions of anger and irritation from others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be patient with your kids. Likewise, be patient with social occasions and romantic partners because everyone is having a tough time. (Not just you. Some people have it worse.) Be especially patient during arguments involving money and your possessions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Fiery Mars is in your sign at odds with stern Saturn creating difficulties with family, especially older people. Fortunately, with the sun and Venus in your sign, you can be lighthearted and friendly. You can rise above these testy exchanges. Please do so because the world needs you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep your eyes open for hidden enemies or people who don’t have your best interests at heart because this is the classic day for someone to act against you. Keep your eyes open and be aware. If you suspect something fishy might be going on — it is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Don’t be aggressive in dealing with friends, groups and organizations because you might regret it. Many people are too pushy, or perhaps they’re bewildered. This is because there’s a lot of aggressive energy in the air, which makes some people say unkind things.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Tread carefully. You might feel hurt by something a boss, parent or someone in authority says to you. Or possibly, you are that person in power. Either way, don’t take things personally. There’s a lot of aggressive energy out there. Many people will say things at they will later regret. Don’t be one of them.
