Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a marvelous day to entertain at home or to enjoy social outings with others, especially children or romantic partners, because you have enthusiasm and energy to burn! It’s also a winning day for those of you involved in the entertainment world, show business or the hospitality industry.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You have been dealing with erratic situations at home lately due to renovations, redecorating projects or visiting guests. This can leave you a bit frazzled. Today, however, your involvement with others will be a positive, upbeat situation. (About time.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Enthusiasm is contagious and optimism is inspiring. Today you will exemplify both these qualities, which is why others will enjoy your company and be inspired by your words and your actions. This is the perfect day for a short trip. It’s also a great day to teach others.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Business and finance are favored, in part, because you’re not afraid to think big. Business-related travel is likely. You might deal with groups and other countries or different cultures. Authority figures will benefit you somehow, which means it will be wise for you to listen to the advice of someone older or more experienced.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you will be warm and friendly to others and willing to offer people emotional or physical support. This is a wise decision because you will get from others exactly what you give. Basically, you have an increased concern for the welfare of someone, and this will ultimately benefit you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might use your own assets or wealth to help someone today. You might offer them practical assistance. You might even use the resources of someone else, for example shared property or shared funds to help a third party in need. (This could get tricky.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might entertain some exciting travel plans today because you want to do something different. You’re thinking big and you want adventure! If you can’t travel, then you will at least be happy to do something that is fresh and new. You might learn something or go someplace you’ve never been before.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is an excellent day to deal with financial matters, especially to decide how to share something like an inheritance. Whatever the outcome, you’ll be laughing all the way to the bank. Dealings with groups and family members will be positive. It’s important to be generous and sharing because what you give is what you will get.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Because you are open, warm and friendly in your dealings with others today, you will get along well with partners, close friends and members of the general public. This is a strong day for those of you in sales and marketing, as well as teaching.
