Vivian takes the next step in her plan to bring down her enemies.
Aries (March 21-April 19): You are quick to take umbrage. It’s not worth getting into a fight with a parent or a boss. Just suck it up because this is a fleeting anger.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): A vague feeling of discontent makes you quick to take offense. (Not to be confused with the chance to take a fence, or bet- ter yet, a gate. For a fence, you need property. Now we’re talking! You’re a coun- try squire at heart and a country squire needs land where lambs can roam!)
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Don’t be snappish with someone because what’s the point? This person will be offended. You will feel further annoyed. The vicious circle continues. Instead, be the hero.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Disputes with parents, bosses or the police are likely because people are touchy and quick to assume that any kind of com- munication from someone is a challenge. Yup. People are getting told off. You might also attract this to you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You might feel you have to defend your beliefs against someone. They might attack your position on politics, religion or race. But how did you get drawn into this? You don’t even want to be here. Curtail this discussion ASAP.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Discussions about inheritances or shared prop- erty will not be pleasant today. This is because Mercury, the planet of communi- cation, is at odds with Mars, the God of War. Obviously, this is a poor day for discussions about sharing responsibilities, money or property.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You might attract someone who wants to con- vince you of something or they want to attack your ideas. Well, you’re no fool. Why are you going to stand there and take it? Confucius said, “He who flings dirt only loses ground.”
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Every day we work with the same people. This can be trying. Demonstrate grace under pressure.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Lover’s quarrels will occur. These are painful. They can ruin your day. The bottom line of a lover’s quarrel is: If you do that you don’t love me. Or: If you don’t do this, you don’t love me. The best so- lution is a warm caring hug.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Family arguments might arise. These are often power struggles. Who is running the show? Family, your home and your status in the community are important to you. You don’t want these things to be threatened.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This is an accident-prone day for your sign because you might have a feeling of repressed rage. Accidents related to burns, especially to arms and legs, or while walking or driving are likely.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Money quarrels might erupt. These can be nasty. People are never casual about money. (They are more private about money than their sex lives!)
