Moon Alert: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Virgo. ARIES (March 21-April 19) uuuuefrain from important decisions regarding your work, your health or even something to do with a pet today, because there’s an element of confusion. Your idealism might sway you in a direction that you will later regret. Just stay the course until you really know what’s happening. Don’t jump to conclusions. Tonight: Steady as she goes.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) uuuuThis is a poor day for big purchases or financial decisions, because you might not see things clearly. You might buy something based on wishful thinking and later regret it. Do not agree to any important financial matters. Don’t get talked into anything. Tonight: Avoid financial decisions. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) uuuuToday the Moon and Venus plus Mercury retrograde are in your sign. Meanwhile, Neptune is opposite your sign. This is not a combination that enc
