Moon Alert
Interestingly enough, today we’re in the clear—no restrictions on shopping or making any big decisions. Just keep an eye on the clock because the full moon in Scorpio hits its peak at 9:35 p.m. Chicago time.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
A bit of pressure might come your way regarding finances. Whether it’s about negotiating salaries, asking for a raise, or even dividing up possessions, expect some lively discussions. Fortunately, these financial troubles should start to untangle in a few days, so stay hopeful.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
With the full moon sitting opposite your sign today, it may stir up some drama between you and close partners or friends. This is really not the day for heavy conversations. Just take a step back, breathe, and wait for the dust to clear in the coming days.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today’s full moon could push some work or health issues right into your face—could even involve a furry friend! It’s a good time to ponder your attitude towards your job. Ask yourself: do you take pride in what you do? Finding that sweet spot for productivity might be what you need.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
There’s a chance for some worries today, whether it’s about your kids, social plans, or even romance. Reflect on your role in these relationships. What steps can you take to enhance what you have? A bit of introspection could lead to positive changes.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Today’s full moon is the year’s only one sitting at the bottom of your chart, highlighting any tension with family, especially from the ladies—perhaps your mother? Watch for those old memories to creep in. However, don’t get bogged down reliving the past.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Be careful today; this full moon can make you accident-prone, so stay mindful of your words and actions. Resist that impulse to say something you might regret later. Emotions run high during a full moon, so keep your guard up.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today’s celestial vibes might push your feelings about money to the forefront. If you tend to adopt a casual approach towards finances, you might notice some shifts. Just a heads-up: you like to keep your money matters private, so this might feel a bit uncomfortable.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
The spotlight is on you today with the full moon in your sign. Expect a little stress when interacting with others, but on the bright side, it offers some valuable self-awareness. You’ll be more expressive and confident today—could even lead to closure on some matters.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today’s full moon may have you second-guessing yourself, especially concerning work or health. Don’t panic; it’s common to feel more overwhelmed before the full moon peaks. Just remember, things will likely ease up once it passes. Just hang in there!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Full moons often stir up heightened emotions, which could cause tension with friends, kids, or romantic partners. Go gently with everyone today, as those contradictions between feelings can result in a bit of chaos.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today you may feel torn between the pull of home life and the demands of your career or public image. You can’t please everyone, though, and that’s okay. Just remember, people are noticing you more than usual right now.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Steer clear of heated debates about politics or religion today, as the full moon could turn those discussions into all-out arguments. Stick to light-hearted topics, perhaps reminiscing about the good old days.
