Today’s horoscope

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

The moon is in your sign bringing you a bit of extra good luck. However, both Saturn and Neptune are also lined up in your sign, which can make you self-critical or disappointed in yourself for some reason. Secretly, you might have heroic expectations, which are tough to live up to.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

For some reason, you might feel self-critical. Cut yourself some slack. Saturn is lined up with Neptune and those two planets are so different they don’t even like to be in the same sentence. Saturn’s reality combined with Neptunian idealism leads to disappointment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Fortunately, you look great in the eyes of others because the sun and Venus are high in your chart, which is flattering to you. Meanwhile, you might feel disappointed in a friend or a group. Or, they might be disappointed in you. Or, everyone’s disappointed. This too, shall pass.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Be careful about judging parents, bosses and VIPs (unless you’re looking in the face of blatant abuse of authority) because many people feel disappointed in authority figures. (It’s just what’s happening.) Make sure your expectations are realistic.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is the classic day to be disappointed in your ideals as they relate to religion, government, universities or any institution where you expect high standards. You might feel disillusioned. Perhaps this is a wake-up call to investigate and get more information.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

It would be wise to postpone important financial decisions, especially concerning inheritances, shared property, taxes and debt because your thinking might be confused. Give yourself 48 hours to have room for sober second thought.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Relationships are important to you because you are a people-person. You like to have others in your life. Someone close might disappoint you but perhaps you might ask yourself: did I express my expectations? Unspoken expectations almost always lead to disappointment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be gentle with co-workers and customers because it’s easy to jump on someone if you think they’ve made a mistake. Possibly, the reverse is true and someone might be jumping on you. No one is perfect. We all goof up. Be tolerant and kind and hope others will be this way with you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Romance might disappoint. Likewise, your relations with your kids might discourage you. In part, this might be because we tend to set the bar too high when it comes to our expectations of others. Yet, when it comes to our own actions, we expect understanding and sympathy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You can be a perfectionist — a quality that might lead to disappointment in a family member, or conversely, someone being disappointed in you. Don’t get hung up on this. Look for common understanding. Common courtesy. Everyone benefits.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Be careful, because with fiery Mars in your sign, you’re pumped. However, Saturn and Neptune are muddying the waters in the part of your chart that influences your thinking and your everyday world. This means even though you’re confused, you’re still raring to go. Not good. Take a beat.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Financial matters or something to do with your possessions are subject to confusion — in your mind, at least. Therefore, this is a poor day for you to make important financial decisions, especially about buying or selling. Forewarned is forearmed.
