The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

  • Unusual pressure could veer you off course. The more you weigh and consider an issue, the more likely you are to come up with a response. By the end of the day, you opt to speed out of the office. Tonight: Get physical.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • The way you see a situation might not be the way someone else who’s close to you does. You feel like you’re in a pressure cooker. Take the lid off and walk away. Tonight: You need a nice, hardy romp.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • You watch others plunge off the deep end, wondering how to salvage a difficult and deteriorating situation. You might want to duck and stay out of the commotion. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • Do what you must to continue on an even track. Others have very different ideas about finances than you do. Don’t be surprised if you hit a dead end. Tonight: Stop at a favorite spot on the way home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Understand when you’re confronted with a problem. Stop, juggle and play with the problem a bit. Through your creativity you’ll shake up an issue and provide a new direction. Tonight: Pay bills.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • The Moon in your sign gives you a slight edge over others as they ponder the pros and cons of a situation. You cannot change another’s impulsiveness. Recognize an ally. Tonight: Do something you really want to do.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Know when to back down — like now. Right now, finding an amenable solution could be impossible. Every question you ask could be met with a defensive response. Tonight: Cocoon.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • Keep an eye on your long-term objectives, and you might have less of a problem coming up with an agreeable solution. You don’t always see others clearly. Analyze what is occurring here. Tonight: Join a friend.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • What are you going to do to change your present fate? Stay in charge of your life while trying to meet a boss’s or parent’s expectations. Tonight: Do something you really want.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • Reach out for someone at a distance. The unexpected runs rampant in your life. Consider your options, especially those involving funds and an unpredictable element. Tonight: Try a different approach.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • Your unpredictability takes a toll on a close relationship. Consider more of what you want from a child or loved one. Avoid self-sabotage. Tonight: Be with a favorite person.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • * Sometimes you want more from a situation than others are willing to give. As a result, you cause an uproar, often shaking up the status quo. A boss pushes you hard. Tonight: Tell it like it is.
