YOUR DAILY HOROSCOPE FROM GEORGIA NICOLS

The day ahead: ★★★★★ = Dynamic; ★★★★ = Positive; ★★★ = Average; ★★ = So-so; ★ = Difficult

Moon Alert: Caution! Avoid shopping or major decisions from 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. EDT today (7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★ It’s a tricky day! Most of this day is a Moon Alert, which means avoid shopping (except for food and gas) and important decisions. Nevertheless, because the proverbial train is off the tracks, you can enjoy frank and imaginative conversations with partners and close friends.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★ Be careful today. The Sun is in one of your Money Houses, which means you are thinking about financial matters. Nevertheless, because most of this day is a Moon Alert, steer clear of financial decisions and shopping (except for food and gas). Just coast.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ This can be an exciting, eventful day for you, because during the Moon Alert, your creative abilities are heightened and you will easily think outside the box. Enjoy creative activities plus the theater and art galleries. Fun times with kids and romance will be rewarding.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ This is the perfect day to cocoon at home. You might want to entertain, but more likely, you’ll be happy to enjoy some solitude in familiar surroundings. Agree to nothing important today, especially with family members. Take it easy. Business as usual.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ This is a wonderful day to schmooze with friends and groups; however, because of the Moon Alert, which is in effect all day, volunteer for nothing. Just explore ideas with others. Note: This is an excellent day for writers. Your creativity will soar!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★ Be careful today, because today’s Moon Alert is taking place in one of your Money Houses. Restrict spending money to food and gas. You can do your homework; however, wait until the Moon Alert is over to initiate financial negotiations or to spend money. Forewarned is forearmed.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ Today the Moon Alert lasts most of this day! And it’s in your sign. This is why you might feel like a helium balloon floating free in the sky. Nevertheless, your creativity and appreciation of beauty will be heightened. Enjoy your surroundings.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★ Don’t worry if you feel a bit indecisive and off your game today. This could be due to the fact that the Moon Alert is taking place in a hidden part of your chart. It’s a poor day to initiate anything or to make decisions. It’s also a poor day to shop or make financial decisions. Just coast.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★

This is a lovely day to socialize, because there is a Moon Alert for most of this day, which encourages conversations with friends and groups to be genuine, revealing and imaginative. People won’t hold back. They’ll be frank and disarming. And so will you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★ Today there is a Moon Alert all day, and it’s taking place at the top of your chart. This means you might appear to be indecisive to others. They might question your ability. Fear not, because everyone is indecisive and vague today. You’re simply high-viz.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ This is a poor day to make travel plans or important decisions related to publishing, the media, medicine or the law. Wait until the Moon Alert is over to act. Meanwhile, conversations about politics, religion and philosophy will range all over the map while you explore every facet of these topics.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★ Today there’s a Moon Alert in one of your Money Houses. Therefore, make no important decisions regarding wills, inheritances, shared property, insurance matters or anything related to the wealth or assets of someone else. Be smart.
