Horoscope for Sunday, April 13, 2025

Moon alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 5 to 9:15 a.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Count to three before you respond to others in order to avoid being harsh. Actually, many people might be a tad harsh today because that's just what's happening. It's a grumpy day! Lighten up for your own peace of mind. After all, you are the first person to "feel" your words.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

For most of this day, the moon is opposite your sign. Plus, it's at odds with big daddy Pluto. This means you might feel annoyed with partners and close friends. But it's important to know these negative feelings are fleeting. Don't say anything you will later regret.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Do your best to avoid quarrels at work today. Some of you might also have disputes with health care workers or even something to do with a pet. Basically, many people are irritated today and quick to anger. Remember: Patience is the antidote to anger. Stay chill.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Parents must be patient with their kids today and above all avoid power struggles, which might create hissy fits and rebellion. Likewise, romantic partners might struggle with control issues. Remember: With Mars in your sign now, you might be aggressive and a bit bossy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is the classic day for family arguments with partners and spouses — and especially a female relative. You might have strong compulsions about something at home or related to a family member, and you want your way. Perhaps someone else feels similarly?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Although you might be caught up in an emotional power play, today, at the same time, your mind will be perceptive, and you will be able to see the subtext of things. You will also see if someone else is lying because your spidey sense is heightened.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Financial disputes, perhaps about vacations, spending money on kids, social outings or something related to sports could make this a challenging day for you. You have ambitious energy, and yet, people and issues might block you today. Go gently. Relax.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today the moon is in your sign at odds with your ruler Pluto, which can make you feel both impulsive and compulsive. You might have urges to do something that might surprise even you, let alone others. Fortunately, this is a fleeting matter. Don't worry about it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This week is basically a playful time for you. Plus, many of you will enjoy entertaining at home as well as redecorating your digs. Nevertheless, your natural optimism might be dimmed somewhat because there's a lot of negative energy out there today. Keep calm and carry on.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Steer clear of arguments with a friend about money and possessions today. Or perhaps this disagreement is with a member of a group? You feel strong connections to family, which are important values for you. This is why you will always defend your home.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is the classic day for disagreements with parents, bosses, VIPs and the police — in other words, anyone in a position of authority. You might resent being told what to do. (Independence is your middle name.) Use your skill with words to pacify things, because you can.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Avoid controversial issues today because they will flare into arguments in a New York second. Issues about race, religion and politics are best left for another day when people are not so inclined to act impulsively. Easy does it.

If today is your birthday

Actress Allison Williams (1988) shares your birthday. You are intellectual, realistic and strong-willed. You are also private but always curious. This year you will reap the benefits of all your hard work. You will attain power and leadership. You might get a promotion, kudos, awards — certainly recognition. Seize opportunities, and act on them. Bravo!
