ARIES

(March 21-April 19)
★★★
This is not the day to ask for permission or approval from authority figures, bosses, parents or the police. Their reply will likely be, “Talk to the hand.” People are quick to anger today (including you). Tread lightly and work to be part of the solution, not the problem. Tonight: Understanding.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20)
★★★
Steer clear of discussions about controversial topics today. They will quickly become arguments that could turn nasty. This might be about something in the media or universities, politics, religion or racial issues. Whatever the case, everyone is touchy! Tonight: A resolution.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)
★★
Disputes or squabbles about financial matters might arise today. This could pertain to arguing about the cost of a vacation or a social outing, or it could pertain to costs related to children or even a lover’s quarrel about shared expenses. “Don’t quibble, Sybil.” Tonight: Check your finances.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)
★★
Today fiery Mars is in your sign opposing the Moon, which is opposite your sign. Meanwhile, issues about home and family are on the table. This is a setting ripe for disputes and arguments. Hey, don’t even go there. Keep your head down and your powder dry. Tonight: Life is easier.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★
People are quick to argue today. You might be one of them (but probably not). In any case, steer clear of something that looks like an argument ready to bubble over into a geyser. Walk or run the other way. Who needs this? Not you. Better yet, why not be a role model for others? Demonstrate grace under pressure. Tonight: Calm down.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★
Be patient when dealing with friends today, as well as talking to your kids. Romantic partners will also have to be patient with each other. Arguments about money, earnings or belongings might become heated. Be smart and make sure you don’t say or do anything that you will later regret. Zip thy lip. Tonight: Relax.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
Be patient with family, authority figures and the police, because everyone seems to have a short fuse today, or they seem to take things personally. Some people are irritated, which means they’re ready to argue about anything just for the sake of arguing. (Yikes!) Tonight: Cocoon.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★
You are a powerful sign, and you have tremendous self-discipline. However, most of you don’t realize that you can also be intimidating to others when you’re steamed up about something. Keep this in mind if you find yourself arguing with someone about a personal matter or something in the media. Go gently. Tonight: Compromise.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★
Avoid money squabbles or arguments about your possessions or who owns what. Ditto for disputes about debt, credit or shared property. People are very touchy about their stuff! Studies show that people are more secretive about their finances than they are their sex life. Tonight: Check your belongings.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★
Pay attention to everything you say and do today to avoid accidents. Of course, an accident doesn’t have to happen, but you might be distracted because you’re irritated or angry about something. Do what you can to keep the peace, for your own sake. Tonight: It’s OK.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★
Work-related issues or something to do with someone from another culture could irritate you today. If so, you have a choice of how to respond. You can fuel your angry energy, or you can put a lid on it and do what you can to keep things congenial. Tonight: Seek privacy.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★
Lovers’ quarrels, problems with kids and disputes about shared property or shared expenses are classic today. However, if you want to be calm and relaxed, you will steer clear of this kind of conflict. Tonight: Consider your own happiness.
