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)

•••• Get in as early as you can. You have lots of work, projects and/or issues to deal with, and your effectiveness is on a downward spiral all day long. Tonight: Doing your thing.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

••• Taking a stand could have its pluses and minuses. You decide which way to go during a key meeting later today. Tonight: The world is your oyster.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

•••• Taking a hasty stand proves to be irresponsible and very tiresome. Your understanding allows greater give-and-take with those you need to have a meeting of the minds with. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
