Aries (March 21-April 19)
This is an excellent day to study, especially at university or technical colleges, because your critical faculty is sharp and your standards are high. Explore avenues in publishing, the media, medicine and the law, because you won’t overlook a thing. You’re on it!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Discussions with a friend or a member of a group might take place today, especially regarding banking matters, inheritances or shared property. Don’t let anyone throw shade your way. You’ve done your homework. Stand your ground because you know what you’re doing; plus, you’re good at this.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today your ruler Mercury is at odds with Saturn, which can make communications with others strained. Without realizing it, you might create a negative impression. Furthermore, people are inclined to be critical, which could be discouraging for you. Stay strong!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Try to do mental work today, because you won’t overlook details and you’ll be persevering. Nevertheless, if you have to do physical work, you will persevere because your physical comforts are less important to you today. You want to get the job done because you’re concerned with practical results.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
This is a poor day to socialize because people are inclined to be critical and negative. No fun. Parents should be aware of this when they’re dealing with their kids and lighten up. However, you can use today’s energy to practice or hone a skill in the arts or in sports.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a poor day for important family discussions, especially with parents or older relatives. People are inclined to be negative and critical. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.) However, if you’re involved in a family discussion, be courteous and patient. (For your own peace of mind.)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today it’s easy to think that things are worse than they are because negative vibes seem to be in the air. Therefore, do not fall prey to this! Furthermore, don’t fall into habitual “worry patterns” — so easy to do! Cooperate with others. Relax at home if possible.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Your finances might be crunchy today, which is why this is a poor day for financial transactions. If you’re negotiating with someone, you are coming from a weaker position because you’re worried. Wait a day or two so that your confidence returns.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today Mercury is in your sign at odds with Saturn, which is excellent for doing heavy mental work or anything that demands disciplined thinking. You won’t overlook details today and you will have the stamina to slog it through whatever you need to study or learn. Don’t be critical of others. In fact, be supportive.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You can use the energy of this day to do research or seek answers and find solutions to old problems because you won’t stop until you find what you’re looking for. Your mental capacity is sharp and your mind is organized. Be careful about being narrow-minded and missing opportunities.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You might feel discouraged if you contact a friend or a member of a group and they are critical of your efforts. Or perhaps, they’re just bummed out and negative? This will bother you. Don’t let it get you down because everyone is susceptible to negative thinking today.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Be careful talking to bosses, parents and the police today because negative thinking is rampant! People will be quick to criticize and point out your faults. Yes, this will be discouraging. You might also feel lonely and cut off from others. (It’s a fleeting influence.)
