MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Virgo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You might have to put the emotional or practical considerations of someone else before your own. You’re not being a martyr; it’s just what’s happening. Look for ways to help someone else because this will be rewarding and satisfying for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You can’t conceal your feelings from others and you shouldn’t try. This is because you need to be yourself. Romance is more powerful. Relations with women in general will be improved. You might feel more protective or nurturing to children.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is a good time to retire by yourself to your own private place because you need a break from the demands of the busy outside world. Memories of your childhood might bubble to the surface of your mind. You might also see how old habits control your daily behaviour.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You feel a strong need to talk to someone and say something important. This means you want someone else to listen to you in a genuine, interested way. You’ll feel frustrated if people want to be casual and chit-chat about the weather.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Because it’s easy to identify with your possessions, you might not want to lend something to someone. You might feel possessive about what you own. You might also find yourself having to defend your views or ideas when there really is nothing at stake.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The moon is in your sign, which can make you more emotional than usual. This occurs every month for two-and-a-half days. However, on the upside, when the moon is in your sign, your luck is slightly improved. How can you use this to your advantage?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might be tempted to withdraw from the world around you and seek some solitude and peace and quiet (if you have the chance). This is also a good day to explore mystical or spiritual disciplines because your Spidey sense is highly tuned.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your emotional contact with friends is important to you. Likewise, you might be interacting with a group, club or organization. In either case, you might be surprised you feel protective of someone. You might also feel jealous if a friend pays more attention to someone else. (It happens.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

For some reason, people seem to know personal details about your private life. Be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control. You might want to use your influence to help someone. Or perhaps you will use the clout of someone else.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You want to get away from it all. Of course, travel is not the only way to get away from everything. You can explore the world through books, learning, film and talking to others. Be a tourist in your own city.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Take time to check out debt, bills and anything related to inheritances, insurance issues and shared property. Stay on top of these matters because they don’t go away by themselves (despite what we might wish). Spend 15 minutes tidying up loose ends.
