Aries:

You've been off on a spree for days, and not especially easy to get along with at certain moments, if you haven't been easily able to get the answers you're after. You're feeling a bit mellower today, however, and it's a good thing, too -- because your loved ones have had just about all the fun they can stand with defending you. It's time to give 'just being nice' a shot -- in your own charming, fiery fashion.



Taurus:

You possess a very particular type of honesty that's so straightforward and full of integrity it can often be intimidating. Don't ever let anyone tell you it's not the right way to be -- especially now. Situations today call for someone with the guts to push the envelope past the point of politeness -- to boldly say what no one else has the courage to say. If you can't do it, no one can. And wouldn't it be a shame to let a bit of dishonesty ruin a potentially lovely evening?



Gemini:

You're ordinarily far fonder of moving around than of sitting still, no matter what the situation. In fact, even when you're ill, you're not good at convalescing. So now, when you're suddenly hit with the urge to not just sit still, but to stay home and snuggle up, certain loved ones may stop by for a variety of reasons -- basically to touch your forehead and make sure you're not running a mind-altering fever. Lay their fears to rest.



Cancer:

Getting you out of your home now will be next to impossible, especially if you have friends, family or kids on hand. In fact, the more folks you've got there to hug, feed and nurture, the more difficult it will be to get you to leave the premises. Don't let anyone make you feel guilty about that. Home and family are your specialties, along with caretaking. When you've got a chance to do all three, why would you want to leave?



Leo:

You love entertaining and being entertained, so you're not famous for staying home. At the moment, however, there's probably nothing you can think of that you'd rather do than sit still and enjoy the company of dear ones -- and no one will have to jump up on the table to hold your attention, either. Your friends, of course, have come to count on you, so they may pout for the duration of your inward vacation, but don't budge if you don't want to.



Virgo:

When it comes to providing for your loved ones, you're one of the few signs who'll do more for them than they'll actually do for themselves. At times, this leaves you open to being taken advantage of -- and this is one of those times. If you're not sure about the motivations of someone who's asked for your help, or strongly hinted that they sure could use it, ask the advice of an elder who can be more objective.



Libra:

If anyone is good at establishing strong working relationships with all kinds of people, it's you. You've most likely got a better rapport with your boss than he or she has with their best friend, in fact. So now, when you need some encouragement to get you through a particularly tough business dilemma, you really shouldn't be shy about asking for a pat on the back and a pep talk. You deserve both, and you'll surely get them.



Scorpio:

A loved one who's been a bit too distant -- emotionally, for sure, and perhaps even literally -- has been on your mind an awful lot lately. Funny thing is, as so often happens with people who are as connected as you two are, you've been on their mind, too. The only question now is this: Which of you will be brave enough to make the first move? Why give them the starring role in the story you'll be telling the grandkids?



Sagittarius:

Your sign is affiliated with excess. In fact, going overboard is so second nature to you that most times you don't even realize you're doing it. You probably just think everyone is perpetually unsatisfied with one of anything -- especially if it's a little thing. Needless to say, 'nothing exceeds like excess' could have been written for your sign, probably by a member of your sign -- and you're going to have to deal with tamping that urge down now. Best of luck.



Capricorn:

Even your ordinarily well-disciplined sign is occasionally allowed to have a totally frivolous, totally extravagant day. So now, when the urge hits -- complete with someone who's just charming and persuasive enough to talk you into letting yourself go -- how can you possibly hope to resist? Well, you can't -- and you shouldn't. It's just your turn to forget about practical things -- just this once -- and have some fun. Oh, sure you can.



Aquarius:

There's nothing you love more than sudden last-minute change, or a good, legitimate reason to cancel plans that were absolutely carved in stone. So now, when the universe puts you in the mood to spend the day or evening either alone or with a guest-list of one (as opposed to that much larger number) you'll go for it. Be apologetic when you break the hearts of the people who were dying to see you, but don't feel guilty. You'll definitely make it up to them.



Pisces:

You've never minded taking care of anything or anyone you love. That goes for your plants and animals, the possessions you have a special emotional attachment to and most especially for the loved ones in your life. If a long-term loved one comes to you now for yet another favor, however, ask yourself this question: Are you really doing them any good by bailing them out of yet another tricky emotional situation?
