Moon alert

After 9 a.m. Chicago time, there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today you might be confused about your relationships with partners, spouses and dear friends. Perhaps something unusual will trigger an epiphany about your relations with those who are closest to you. You might suddenly see things in a new light.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Although issues about work, your health and perhaps a pet are a bit confusing today, you might come to a new understanding about what your job means to you. You might even arrive at new ideas about your values. (Interesting.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might come to a new understanding about your relationship with your kids or an important romantic relationship in your life. You might see that this relationship is changing, and although at times it's confusing, it is likely changing for the better.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Aside from the fact that you might be confused in your dealings with bosses, parents and VIPs, today is a transformative day for you because you might have a shift in values about a family member or your feelings about home and family. Something different is clicking in place.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today is one of those days when you might wonder about something and then come up with a completely new take on it. It will feel like a sudden realization or a breakthrough in how you look at something. This could be regarding relationships, siblings or your everyday habits.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Don't jump to financial conclusions today, which includes major expenditures, because an element of confusion exists that might make you idealize something or someone. You might also have a revolutionary idea about your job. Perhaps this needs further thought.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be careful because it's easy to deceive yourself today even though you might be excited about a new approach to how you deal with your kids or certain philosophies and basic truths. The bottom line is don't kid yourself today even if you think you found the Holy Grail. Maybe yes, maybe no.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Postpone important decisions about where you live or how to deal with shared property today because your thoughts might not be as clear as they should be. You might idealize a situation or a person. You might think you suddenly have the wherewithal to do something — but do you?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Powerful ideas might occur to you about your relationships with others today. It might feel like a sudden epiphany has clarified everything. But, in fact, confusion, especially about relations with romantic partners, friends and even your kids, might actually cloud these issues.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might come up with a new way to earn money or new ideas about your job — or maybe even new ideas about how to improve your health. Meanwhile, confused communications with a family member might take place. Give yourself a moment to think things through. Don't jump.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Discussions about politics, religion, other countries, travel, higher education or the media might be thought-provoking today. You might suddenly see things with new eyes. Before you decide to act on these new insights, be clear in your thoughts. Conversations might be confusing.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Unexpected news might give you a new perspective on dealing with debt and home responsibilities. You might see that the light at the end of the tunnel is not a train. That's reassuring! Saved by the bell!
