ARIES
(March 21-April 19)

Double-check financial matters this morning, including banking, to avoid surprises. Later in the day, do something different! Travel, take a day trip, be a tourist in your own town. Visit new shops, restaurants, buildings or parks. Seek adventure! Tonight: Explore!
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
★★★
This morning you might feel restless. Perhaps someone close to you is rebellious. (A minor but brief challenge.) As the day wears on, expect to have strong feelings about various issues, including shared property, financial matters, inheritances and romantic intimacy. Tonight: Check your finances.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
★★★
Something to do with your health or your job might change your morning routine. However, later in the day, your focus will shift to partners and close friends. Your best bet today is to go more than halfway when dealing with them. (It is what it is.) Tonight: Cooperate.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
★★★★
Mars is in your sign boosting your energy! (The last time Mars was in Cancer was for six weeks in the spring of 2023.) Mars will stay in your sign until November, so make the most of this. This increased physical energy will make it easier for you to work and further your best interests. Tonight: Work.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★★
Home disruptions might test your patience with family this morning. But as the day wears on, fun activities will appeal to you! Make time for playful moments with kids, the arts, the entertainment world or sports events. Explore romance! Get friendly. Tonight: Socialize.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
This morning, pay attention to avoid accidents and delays. Nevertheless, you’re pumped to work, because not only is the Sun in your sign, today your ruler Mercury moves into Virgo as well. It’s all systems go! Roll up your sleeves and get down to it. Tonight: Relax.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
You have an ambitious agenda. Meanwhile, protect your assets, money and possessions this morning. Later today, you will communicate successfully because your ruler Venus makes you charming and attractive to everyone. Note: Behind-the-scenes research will pay off. Tonight: Discussions.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★★
Unexpected events might catch you off guard this morning. Be patient with others to avoid arguments. As the day wears on, focus on financial matters, earnings and your possessions. Do explore travel plans, because you’d love to get outta Dodge. Tonight: Check your belongings.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★★
For most of this day the Moon is in your sign, which makes you feel more emotional than usual. However, when the Moon is in your sign (which happens for two and a half days every month) it boosts your good fortune. (Yes!) Therefore, stay steady and think about what you want to achieve. Ask for it. Tonight: You win!
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★
A friend or a group might surprise you this morning. (Something out of the blue.) Later in the day, you’ll be happy to take a backseat and enjoy privacy (preferably in pleasant surroundings with good food and drink). You need some down time. (Don’t we all?) Tonight: Solitude.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★
Tread carefully this morning with bosses, parents and the police, because authority figures are unpredictable. Later in the day, relations with a friend, especially a female, could be significant. Why not share your hopes and dreams for the future with this person to get their feedback? It might help you. Tonight: Friendships.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★★
Be careful this morning. It’s an accident-prone time for you. Think before you say or do anything. Later in the day, you will be high-viz, which means people will notice you more than usual. Be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control. Tonight: Show respect.
