The Stars Rate Your Day
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
Aries (March 21-April 19)
*** Both Mercury and Venus are retrograde in your sign, which will attract ex-partners and old romantic connections back into your world either in person, online or even in your dreams. This might be an excellent time for closure or cleaning up old business.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
*** Today the Moon is opposite your sign. This occurs for 2 1/2 days every month and when it happens, it means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. In other words, be convivial and accommodating. Fortunately, this is basically your default mode.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
*** With both Mercury and Venus now retrograde, you’ll run into friends from the past as well as contacts from clubs, groups and associations. This can be pleasant. It will give you a chance to catch up and trade lies about the good old days.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
**** This is an interesting time for you because fiery Mars is in your sign, making you determined to achieve your goals. Meanwhile, Mercury and Venus are retrograde at the top of your chart attracting bosses, parents and authority figures from your past back into your world. Get ready!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
*** Mercury and Venus are both retrograde giving you a chance to finish paperwork, finish manuscripts and novels as well as school writing projects. You might also finish details related to legal or medical matters. Retrograde planets can cause delays but they can also help you finish old business.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
*** This is the perfect day to wrap up old business with taxes, shared property, insurance issues and inheritances. Go with this energy right now because you will be surprised at how easy and fast this work will flow, especially if you’ve been putting it off for ages. “Done!”
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
*** Your ambition is aroused today, which means you’re keen to be productive and get things done. Meanwhile, both Mercury and Venus are retrograde opposite your sign, which will attract old partners, both romantic and professional back into your world. (Perhaps even in your dreams.)
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
**** Today the Moon is in your sign, which will give you a little bit of extra good luck. Admittedly, it will make you more emotional than usual. This is a playful week for you. Romantic opportunities, sports events, the arts and fun activities with kids will appeal. Enjoy!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
*** This is an excellent day for research of any kind, especially into artistic matters or anything related to future vacations and exciting travel plans. Meanwhile, old flames are back on the scene in one way or another, perhaps even in your dreams?
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
*** A conversation with a female colleague might be important today. Why not share your hopes and dreams for the future with this person to get their feedback? It might help you. Meanwhile, stock the fridge because relatives might be camped on your doorstep. (Maybe you can you put them to work.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
*** You’re high viz. today, which means people notice you more than usual. (Avoid a public, hissing argument in an elevator.) Allow extra time for everything, especially transportation because public transit and car problems are classic right now. Double check everything you do.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
**** This is a nice way to begin your week. You want a chance to do something different. Travel will appeal. If you can, do something to explore your own city. Meanwhile, Mercury retrograde will help you wrap up old business regarding earnings and cash flow.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Kurt Russell (1951) shares your birthday today. You’re creative, optimistic and interested in many things. You have a strong need for independence of action and thought. This is a slower paced year. It’s okay to rest and rejuvenate your energy and your outlook. Focus on your business and personal relationships. Concentrate on what brings you happiness.
