Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Keep an eye on your banking and financial transactions because something unexpected could impact them. Very likely, it will be to your benefit. This could be a gift or something you're happy to see. It might also give you some long-term benefit. Meanwhile, romance is passionate!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Something surprising or exciting might happen today. You might receive an invitation to socialize. You might meet someone new and different who is unusual. New romance might percolate. Parents should be vigilant because it's a mildly accident-prone day for your children.

This is a pleasant day. New places, new faces and new ideas might give your day an unexpected lift! Serious discussions might help you solidify social plans, vacations or ways of educating and dealing with your kids. Money is on your mind.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today the moon is in your sign, which gives you a slight edge over everyone else. Why not ask the universe for a favor? See what happens. Meanwhile, keep an eye on your money and possessions because something unexpected could occur. On the upside, you might get a gift.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Find some quiet time today to take a breather. However, social occasions might make sudden demands on your time, especially if you feel you must respond out of a sense of courtesy or social obligation. Spontaneous shopping for wardrobe items will delight.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
A secret love affair or flirtation might happen today. A discussion with a female friend or a member of a group could impact your future plans. Perhaps this is because something going on behind the scenes can now stabilize your finances in some way.

A popular day! Unexpected flirtations and encounters with others will make this a pleasant, fun-loving day for you. Stay light on your feet so that you can be flexible and ready to jump in any direction.
