The Stars Rate Your Day
★★★★★ Dynamic; ★★★★ Positive; ★★★ Average; ★★ So-so; ★ Difficult.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

★★★ You might suddenly introduce new changes or improvements to your home or where you live because it seems like a good idea. Actually, these ideas might have been percolating in your mind for some time, and now you're ready to act. (This might appear hasty to some, but fast and impulsive is your style.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

★★★ Today you might suddenly take a short trip based on an exciting idea to explore something new. Or you might try to persuade others to agree with something that interests you. You're full of high energy to get something done, and there's no holding you back!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

★★★★ You're working hard, especially to boost your earnings if possible. Because of this, you might suddenly decide to impulsively buy something for yourself or someone else as a reward. Discussions with others will be strong and to the point. You will say what you mean and mean what you say.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

★★★★ In your drive for new experiences, you might seek out friendships with exciting people who stimulate you. You will be more impulsive than usual because you feel playful and adventurous. Your actions might also be motivated by an exciting flirtation or a promising romance.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★ Home and family are your focus. In particular, home repairs and redecorating projects will appeal to you, which is why you might be eager to do something unusual. (Because the moon is in your sign, you will be more emotional about everything.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★★ This is a fast-paced time! Meetings, errands, short trips and discussions with others will stimulate your day. A competition with a friend or a group might suddenly occur. Possibly, a friend will surprise you or spur you on in some way? "The game, Mrs. Hudson, is on!"

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22

★★★ Avoid direct conflict with others because you like to maintain harmony in your surroundings. However, today some kind of conflict with a parent, boss or authority figure might suddenly erupt. This might be about earnings, assets or something that you or a friend owns. Stay steady.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★★ The sun, Mercury and fair Venus are in your sign now, which empowers you and strengthens your words. This is timely because an unexpected controversy might explode today. Or perhaps something related to the law, medicine or travel plans will suddenly change everything? Tread carefully.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★ Although you're keeping a low profile and working alone or behind the scenes, something related to banking issues, shared property, inheritances or the wealth of someone else will suddenly require your attention. Investigate everything. Assume nothing.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★ Even though this is a popular time for you, and you might enjoy relating to younger, creative people, an upsetting situation with a close friend or partner might occur today. Someone might challenge you. Perhaps they're jealous? Be ready for anything that comes your way.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★ Your work routine will be interrupted today, quite possibly because of your own excitement. You might be impatient with the progress of something and decide to take a new direction or do something that others consider to be unexpected. (Of course, this is your style.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★ Pisces parents should know that this is another accident-prone day for your kids. Therefore, be vigilant. Meanwhile, social activities are unpredictable! You might receive an unexpected invitation; or conversely, social plans might suddenly be canceled or changed. This is also an accident-prone day for sports.
