"Too much happiness can make you unhappy," reported journalist Marta Zaraska in the Washington Post.

So here's the takeaway, Aries: The astrological omens suggest you're due for a surge of joy and pleasure. Just be careful it doesn't spill over into rash, delirious excess. Here's your watchword: well-grounded delight.
