ROYAL STARS

- YOUR DAILY HOROSCOPE FROM GEORGIA NICOLS

The day ahead: ★★★★★ = Dynamic; ★★★★ = Positive; ★★★ = Average; ★★ = So-so; ★ = Difficult

MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from noon to 1 p.m. After that, the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★ Don’t bite off more than you can chew today, because there are challenges, especially communicat­ing to others. Discussion­s with someone older or someone in authority might go south in a New York minute. Stay chill.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★ You might have some financial concerns. Whatever you try to initiate might be blocked by someone else or happenstan­ce. It’s hard to make things go your way. Knowing this, pull back. You can’t push the river.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★ Tread carefully today, because you might find that your actions are blocked by authority figures or that it is difficult to do what you set out to do. Therefore, be more realistic and focus on what you can accomplish.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★ Steer clear of controvers­ial topics today. The outcome will be negative. Because the Moon is in your sign for much of this day, you’ll feel emotional. Later today, disputes about money might arise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★ Don’t insist on getting your way in discussion­s with friends and groups, because this will be difficult. Financial discussion­s might be tough. You might not get the support you expected. Don’t argue with authority.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★ This is a tricky day to deal with authority figures. Knowing this, don’t push your agenda. This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval. Timing is everything. Furthermor­e, controvers­ial issues are prickly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Steer clear of important discussion­s about politics, religion, foreign issues and certain philosophi­es. Likewise, the practical and financial support you also might want will be stalled in the water. Go gently today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★ Don’t ask for handouts or practical or financial support today, because very likely, the response will be, “Talk to the hand.” Knowing this, wait for another day when the situation will be more favorable. Today it’s tough to talk to bosses and authority figures. (Plus, some people are obsessed.)

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★

Avoid arguments with partners and close friends today, which might arise because of an older family member or a difficult situation at home. Today requires patience, diplomacy and an ability to understand what it’s like to walk a mile in someone else’s wedgies.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★ You might not accomplish much at work today. Things aren’t flowing smoothly. Romantic relationsh­ips are challenged, including your relations with your kids. Therefore, pull in your ambitions and deal with a smaller area that is working.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★ This is a tough day for romance, sports events, social outings and fun times with kids, because problems and challenges seem to be present. Issues at home seem to be challengin­g as well. Therefore, take a realistic appraisal of things and do what you can.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★ Parents might be an increased responsibi­lity today. Something to do with home and family could be onerous. Discussion­s with siblings and relatives also might be difficult. Focus on achieving whatever you can do, no matter how small.
