The Stars Rate Your Day
★★★★★ Dynamic; ★★★★ Positive; ★★★ Average; ★★ So-so; ★ Difficult.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
★★★ There’s an element of confusion today, which means your best option is to work hard. Keep your head down and your powder dry. Postpone important money decisions, especially about how to share or divide something for another day because you might give away the farm.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
★★★ This is a tricky day! In an effort to keep someone happy, especially someone like a boss or parent, you might make a questionable decision. Trust your gut instincts. If something feels fishy, it is. Don’t fall for sob story today. Get your facts.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
★★★ This is not an ideal day to make important financial decisions because you might have the wrong information, or someone might lie to you. Even partners and close friends might be difficult to read. Think for yourself today.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
★★★ Somebody might try to talk you into something today. (Ironically, you might also do this to yourself.) Meanwhile, romance is promising but perhaps confusing? When dealing with kids, social situations and sports events, get your facts. Know what’s happening. Be clear about things.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★★ You might want to help a family member today or someone in need. By nature, you’re a generous sign, so you will probably be ready to step up to the plate. However, it’s important to make sure you know what you’re doing. Do not act until you have information you can trust.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★★ Today it’s easy to act on issues because of wishful thinking. But do you really have the facts? Or are you just trying to talk yourself into something? Ironically, family and relatives might not be able to help because of their own limitations. It’s a tricky day!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★ If you’re dealing with financial matters or shopping, be careful because wishful thinking might lead you down the garden path. For example, you might spend too much money on luxurious items and then later regret it. (The devil made me do it!) Don’t try to “keep up” with someone. Be true to yourself.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★★ Wishful thinking is rampant today. Sometimes wishful thinking is a good thing because it opens new doors and pushes us to new achievements. However, at other times, wishful thinking leads to unrealistic choices and regrets. Make sure you know what you’re doing.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★ Hidden secrets and confusion might make it difficult for you to make wise decisions about shared property, banking and how to work with the resources of someone else. Ask yourself if what you do might lead to future regret? If you’re not sure what to do, do nothing. Wait a day.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★★ This is a popular time for you! You’re interacting with others, especially younger people. However, if you feel that someone is not being honest with you — listen to this warning in your head. There’s a strong element of confusion present everywhere today. Keep your eyes and ears open.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★ Be clear with authority figures today if asked to do something, especially if you’re doubtful. Make sure you know what others expect of you. Furthermore, if someone wants you to do something that’s against your principles, stand up for yourself. Be true to your beliefs.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★★ Your appreciation of beauty is heightened today, which is why you will enjoy galleries, beautiful stores, arts and crafts, and the creations of others. Nevertheless, if spending money, think twice before you part with your hard-earned cash.
