Aries:

Just because your phone hasn't been ringing off the hook doesn't mean that people don't want to connect with you. They are probably just waiting for you to make the first move -- and are you sure you even want to, right now? Sure, your social life may be throttling down lately, but that can be a very good thing. You should use this downtime to organize some of the more hectic areas of your life and get back on top of financial issues you may be neglecting.

Taurus:

New beginnings are not always marked by commencement ceremonies or starting pistols. All it takes to branch out in a new direction or get that side project finally off the ground is you! Stop waiting for the green light -- there isn't going to be one. Right now, you need to move forward on your own. If the funding you've been waiting for is nowhere in sight, don't let that stop you. If your partners haven't materialized, forget them. Everything will soon fall into place. Get going!

Gemini:

Good things come to those who wait -- so if you have been waiting for a time when things might free up a bit, today just might be the day! Get ready for some last minute cancellations on some meetings or dates -- and line up some backup plans so you can make use of the extra time. Think of something that you can do by yourself at a moment's notice. Patience is a hard skill to master, but you have been an excellent student, and today will bring you your reward.

Cancer:

The silent treatment will not get you anywhere today, so if you're using that tactic you'd better come up with something else. Hey, here's a crazy idea -- how about talking it out? It can be hard to start the conversation, but it won't be hard to continue it once you know you are being heard. There is no communication without an exchange of ideas, so break down your wall of silence and open up. You will make a bigger, better point by talking than you ever could by being silent.

Leo:

Someone who's been at the edge of your radar for a very long time will suddenly move to the center of your field of vision today. They want your attention, and they want to inspire you. If you give them a chance to make their case, they just might. They are ready to prove to you that what they have to offer isn't a correction -- it's a suggestion. Getting involved in a new venture could give you the energy (and ego) boost you have been looking for, so say 'yes' to a proposal.

Virgo:

As your social life starts heating up again, be sure to dedicate some of your outings to cultural events. African music, sushi restaurants, and even foreign films will make a welcome break from your usual social plans. Plus, they will expose you to some very interesting and attractive people. Stimulating your mind by trying something new will earn you respect and admiration. You'll impress a few sophisticated people who are new to the scene.

Libra:

It's not universally true that opposites attract, but you've been noticing some hot magnetic energy between two very different (and very single) people in your life. You are in a position to put them in the same room together. Are you up for the matchmaking task? Think about what it's like on the other end of things and subtly dig for some clues about how interested these two parties may be. Follow your gut, and if you're ready to connect these hot dots, do it!

Scorpio:

The confusing behavior of someone you are just getting to know is becoming frustrating -- today it might be time to push things all the way and find out once and for all what is really going on. Taking an unexpected action could throw this person for a loop, but it's nothing compared to the uncertainty they have been putting you through. In order to feel confident about what you are doing, you have to know more about what is going on. It's as simple as that.

Sagittarius:

While you may want to work diligently through your day today, your mind is on other things. You will have a difficult time staying on track. Whether it's an unexpectedly beautiful day, the piercing eyes of a cutie who's new on the scene, or just your own short attention span that causes your frequent detours, you won't really mind the disruption in your routine. Each little interruption will lead to an amusing revelation, brilliant idea, or good chuckle.

Capricorn:

Today, someone's brilliant one-liner will do more than tickle your funny bone: It will ignite a tiny spark in your heart. Few people realize how having fun can lead to having a romance, although you have always understood the connection, haven't you? Your ideal mate is more likely to be someone who makes you smile than someone who makes you swoon. Remember this when you are considering which crushes to pursue. Hold off on accepting an invitation from anyone who's coming on too strong.

Aquarius:

You may think that you are judged by the company you keep, but that is not necessarily true. Today, don't worry about people making assumptions about who you are based on who you are with -- your true personality is too potent to camouflage, and will shine brightly through boring meetings, dull meals, and meaningless small talk. Be confident that by being the person you want to be one hundred percent of the time, you are encouraging other people to do the same.

Pisces:

From time to time, you go through what could be called a 'velcro phase', when you feel a strong need to stay close -- physically and emotionally -- to the people you love the most. But right now, you could be moving away from that, detaching yourself from folks and going off on your own for a while. Do not fear this change of attitude, because it is perfectly healthy and normal. You are not moving away from people, you are just moving in a different direction from them for a while.
