ARIES (March 21-April 19): Gather information and leave nothing to chance. Look for hidden expenses or someone’s lack of professionalism, and counter any pitfall between you and your goal. Don’t let a change someone makes throw you off; have a backup plan and proceed confidently. 3 stars
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Spending is an issue. Trying to impress someone or spending unnecessarily will break the bank. A kind gesture will mean more than any gift you buy for someone you love.
