Aries:

It looks like that person you've been working so hard to charm is finally coming around! Build on that momentum today by extending a casual invitation -- ask them to lunch, to coffee, or just for a walk around the block. It's important to get a conversation going that is centered more around personal ideas and philosophies than around the day to day stuff you two usually discuss. Keep moving forward with this person -- all the signs are there.

Taurus:

Have you ever cooked something that turned out less deliciously than you expected? You had all the ingredients and did everything according to the recipe. Yet it didn't come together in the right way. In a group situation right now, you are going through the same type of dilemma ... and the problem with both scenarios lies in the quality of ingredients. It's not that something is missing -- the elements are all there, they're just not good enough. Skimp less, next time.

Gemini:

A hot romance that is going on in someone else's life could be causing you to turn a bit green with envy -- but why? Take a look at what you've got going on right now and you'll soon see that the grass is not greener on the other side of the fence. Stop obsessing about what is missing from your life, and start appreciating what you have. You have a lot, and there are plenty of people who wish they were you. Your time will come, but in the meantime you must live in the moment.

Cancer:

'Keep your eye on the ball' is excellent advice in athletics, but it works in all other areas of your life, too. On the job, focusing on decision making (and not on the gossip of disgruntled coworkers) means that you automatically become a valuable part of said decision making. In a relationship, focusing on your partner ensures that you won't ever take them for granted. In life as in sports, you have to stay in the moment and pay close attention.

Leo:

You will have an unbeatable combination of energy and insight today -- which will prepare you well for a day full of opportunity and group activities. If you see something that needs some fixing, put yourself on the task! You have an idea of how things will work best for the future, not just for today. It's this type of long-term, big picture thinking that will make you very popular and very well paid. Revise your resume with some of your latest accomplishments.

Virgo:

The shopping bug has bitten, and it's not letting go -- but this fascination with material goods is not going to be good for you right now. All signs still point to save, save, save! Not only is throwing your cash around going to drain your resources, but it's distracting you from things that matter most. There's more delight to be found in the people around you than in some silly new gadget or trendy accessory. Put yourself on a budget and avoid the mall for a while.

Libra:

Fun, frivolous aspects of living will take up most of the day today, and you'll have a blast unleashing your wit and creativity (everyone around you will like it, too). Flirting gets you some nice smiles, but be aware that not everyone is up for game playing. As long as you can keep focus on who's down for fun and who isn't, you'll be able to enjoy anything thrown your direction. Make the most of it today -- because unfortunately, this party period can't last forever.

Scorpio:

You are absolutely ready for anything today -- nothing and no one can overwhelm you right now, so it is a very good time to leap into the center of the action and grab your piece of it. Get a good breakfast, because this day will be full of action and opportunity. Step up to the biggest personalities and you will be able to match them in every deed. There is literally no stopping you, and you should understand and accept the power you have. Wield it well.

Sagittarius:

You cannot put two people together who don't want to be together. So if your Cupid act is not working, it is never going to -- give it up. The magnetic pull between two people is not something you can manufacture or even encourage. It will just happen when it is meant to happen. Do not feel guilty that you can't make this thing happen. Just switch your energy to a different place. Instead of setting people up, just hang out with them and enjoy their company.

Capricorn:

Like the waistband on your favorite pair of jeans, your time is starting to loosen up and get a lot more comfortable. But instead of reaching for a belt to tighten things back up, relax and enjoy the feeling of having a little more room to play with. This is a great time to get a head start on vacation planning or aggressive career moves -- you have the time to do all the research you need in order to assure that everything works out the way you want it to.

Aquarius:

There are clues being tossed out around you today, and it won't take too much intellectual energy for you to connect the dots and come up with what is really going on. Unfortunately, when you discover the real deal, you might be disappointed. You imagination is a lot more active than was warranted in this particular situation. It just goes to show that a little knowledge is a very dangerous thing, and that the truth is never quite as exciting as you hoped.

Pisces:

Working in a partnership dynamic suits your personality right now -- even if the compromises are feeling a bit uncomfortable. There is an imbalance in maturity levels that you have to deal with together. The best approach is to wait and let them figure it out on their own. Be upfront about your concerns, but don't offer an ultimatum. Their willingness to get with the program is comforting and genuine. They take a step forward today and it will end up making your day.
