The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
* This is a challenging day on many fronts. Power struggles with parents, bosses and teachers are likely. Meanwhile, parents might also have challenges with their kids over hissy fits and meltdowns. It’s the vibes in the air. Surprises with authority figures in general are likely. Be on guard.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
* Steer clear of political and religious discussions today because they could be nasty. Likewise, relations with parents, bosses and the police could turn quickly angry. These things don’t have to happen but the possibilities exist. Be aware of this and tread carefully.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
* People have intense emotional reactions today, especially about money and how things are divided. In fact, you might talk to someone today who is obsessed. (Possibly this person is you?) Steer clear of controversial subjects, especially religion and politics because things could get nasty.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
** Be patient with friends, spouses and partners today, especially because some people can’t let go of an idea, which in turn, makes them difficult to deal with. If possible, don’t even go there. Give this kind of situation a wide berth because you don’t need trouble. Go gently.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
* Today you might feel angry with someone, which in turn makes you feel obsessed about ideas, especially that are work-related or even related to a pet. Do your best to stay calm. Avoid important discussions because you will risk alienating someone close to you.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
** Relationships with your kids as well as romantic relationships are endangered by irrational feelings of anger as well as power trips. Don’t get involved in this. People can be hurt by unkind words. Instead, focus on learning something new. Take a short trip. Tackle home repairs.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
** Postpone social occasions for another day, especially romantic get-togethers because tension between people could be nasty and petty. This will be hard for you because more than other signs, you need to have harmony in your environment. You like to get along. Keep your head down and your powder dry.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
* Be patient with parents and family members today because it’s easy to slip into a nasty argument. One of the things that might lead to conflict is you might insist on something. You might be fixated on a particular issue and you can’t let it go. Not wise.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
** This is the classic day for arguments, especially events where you end up saying something you later regret. This conflict might be triggered about financial issues or something you own, and it really bothers you. Stay frosty.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
* Be careful today. This morning the Moon is in your sign lined up with Pluto, which can make you obsessed about something. You can only see your own point of view. Later in the day, money squabbles or fights about your possessions might take place. Chill out.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
** You are progressive and a modern thinker. Therefore, keep your wits about you today and don’t lose your temper because many around you might be doing so. You are high viz. right now, which means you have the ability to influence others. Be a symbol for sanity and common sense.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
* Be patient with coworkers today. Meanwhile, avoid friends or members of groups who are too zealous. It’s as if some people have lost their common sense. A female friend might be vociferous or obsessed about something. Be a calm role model for others.
