Those with birthdays today: Do not take unusual risks, no matter how appealing they might be this year. You have a great imagination, but when it comes to financial matters, you could be easily deceived. Walk the straight and narrow, if possible. Others mean well with their advice, but often you will not like the results. If you are single, you are definitely wearing rose-colored glasses concerning love. The same would apply to anyone you relate to. Give yourself a year to get to know someone. If you are attached, it seems that the two of you are speaking different languages. Work on communicating. The caring is there. Refuse to argue. TAURUS is stubborn.

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)

Stay in control of your temper, though this is a frustrating moment. What you feel is clear becomes foggy. Clarify, verify and double-check all communications and meetings. Tonight: Do what you need to do for yourself.

You might want to let your imagination run loose, but don’t share your many wild and creative thoughts with others right now; your message won’t get through. Tonight: Get some extra sleep.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You aim high for what you want; expect others to help you achieve your goals. A key associate or partner might be more of a hindrance at this point than he or she means to be. Relax and focus. Tonight: Where your friends are.

It might be important to verify what you think you heard, be it a conversation or instructions. Take nothing for granted, and you will be happier. Tonight: Take a long-term look at what you have been thinking about.

What a partner or associate says or does is in direct conflict with what you feel needs to happen. Sometimes you need to let others see the end results of your actions. Everyone learns best from experience. Tonight: Say little.

Confusion can mark the next few days if you aren’t careful. Someone – probably not you – has his or her facts mixed up. All you can do is confirm and verify – and maintain a sense of humor. Tonight: Go along with others.

Keep to your daily tasks, and try to stay away from confusion. Use care when driving, because others, as well as you, might be disoriented. Put on music wherever you are. Tonight: Slow down. Stay out of trouble.

Sometimes you might not know which way to turn. Right now, be a cynic, especially concerning a money matter. You might not be wrong, but today carries a high risk. Tonight: Fun can be a game of Scrabble.

You are in another world right now, and getting you to land might be difficult. You might want to cocoon, but your best bet is to stay present and don’t plunge into a new project. Tonight: Now, homeward bound.

Take your time, even if you feel you have much to do and so little time. You might be more in your head than you realize. Confirm meetings and what others say. Tonight: Swap the day’s war stories.
