ZODIACAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR TODAY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are prone to be intellectually arrogant today. You could be thinking you know more than anyone else but this only makes you less curious when you ought to be more so.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You need practice understanding what others want. You are prone to force others to give you what you want. The value of arranging win/win situations is something you need to realize.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Competition makes you feel threatened today. You are challenged to stay cool and calculating and not fall for bluffs. You tend to gamble over power issues when you ought to deal from a position of strength.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Feeling that your hands are tied, you are apt to take drastic action. This would be ill-advised as you are not ready yet. It's better to work within the system, accept your limits and forgo trying to control everything.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Major financial errors or problems can come to light. Beware of buying on credit or running into debts under some other guise. Frugality should be uppermost in your mind despite the urge to spend and get more.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You place emphasis on private matters, despite a lot of pressure go to public activity. Being in a position of authority is not good now as personal matters intrude too much on your attention.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You are prone to impose your own decisions without taking conflicting advice into account. Beware of hubris and heedlessness. You want to take charge and something must be done but it must be the right thing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Do what you must to reduce or eliminate debt. Any great loss of money must be a beneficial sacrifice, not a waste. Endeavor to build a positive cash flow. Make careful investments now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You move to extend your influence but you should do this only if you have well-laid plans. You are prone to abrupt moves but recklessness only serves to arouse antagonism.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are prone to reduce facts to propaganda. Don't be selective in what you accept as true. The biggest issue for you is aligning concepts with facts, not facts to preconceptions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You could be treating serious situations like a big game. It's time to pay attention to consequences, as well as to the best way to achieve your goals. Impulsiveness is carelessness.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your ambition is over-reaching today. You may try to exercise power you don't have. Patience, not forcing the issue, gets what you want. Beware of bullying, threatening behavior.
