Aries:

There are a few highfalutin folks around you right now. These individuals really like to live beyond their means -- be careful of them. Spend too much time with them (especially socially), and you'll start to feel like you're missing out if you're not constantly spending. All of this luxury can be tempting, but it's not something you can comfortably afford right now. Step back and try and stay grounded. Remember that debt is not a sign of success -- nor is it sexy.

Taurus:

Even astronauts have to come back down to earth in order to live a normal life -- so what are you doing with your head still up in the clouds? It's good to have lofty ambitions, and it's wonderful to daydream every once in a while, but it's time that you rejoined the reality-based community. Right now, being grounded is the only thing that will really enable you to connect with other people. And that's what it will take to build that new relationship you want so badly.

Gemini:

Sometimes it's hard for you to hear the truth. Then again, sometimes (like today), it is even harder for you to tell someone else the truth! But honesty is essential, especially in this relationship. So buck up and do what needs to be done. Whenever a difficult conversation needs to happen, a face-to-face conversation is required. You can't deliver bad news in an email -- it will only add salt to whatever wound your words could inflict.

Cancer:

A friend or coworker has been acting out of character lately, swinging from one emotional extreme to another. Their unpredictable behavior is causing some waves in your placid life, and you can expect the waves to just get bigger today. It's in your best interest to speak up and let them know that while you understand things might be hard for them right now, they can't expect you to suffer, too. Let them know that you will meet them halfway, but that things need to change soon.

Leo:

No matter where you go or who you talk to today, you are sure to make a very good impression on all the right people. This is a great time to move your social life into more exotic and stimulating territory -- are you ready to meet some fabulous new people? Sure, you might be perfectly happy with the people in your life right now, but a stranger on the scene has some interesting skills to teach you. You should definitely let them share what they know.

Virgo:

The best thing for your ego right now is honest, old-fashioned hard work. Roll up your sleeves and get started doing something that enables you to see real progress by the end of the day. Create something concrete, and challenge yourself to finish it by the end of the day. Whether you head into the kitchen to bake a batch of chocolate chip cookies or build yourself a new bookshelf, completing a project will make your self-esteem skyrocket. You'll feel like a rock star.

Libra:

When other people are unsure about how to proceed with a challenging task today, you will know exactly what to do. The only real challenge for you will be to get people to listen to what you have to say! It's time to stop speaking in hushed tones and start barking like the big dog you are. Watch out for people who are trying to quiet you down -- they are just afraid that you will show them up. Don't let their insecurities stop you from making a major power play.

Scorpio:

If you have an ambitious project lined up, today is the perfect day to get started on it. Right now, even the toughest tasks will be as easy as pie for you. An early success will buoy you to keep going through the tougher times that might be coming down the line. Despite all the hard work and sacrifice that you will need to put into this thing, you should have confidence about what's in store. This will be a good thing for you and the people you love.

Sagittarius:

An unexpected invitation might be too good to pass up, so don't let the potential price tag associated with it keep you from saying 'yes, yes, yes!' Just because you might be pinching your pennies right now doesn't mean that you can't afford to splurge a little bit -- especially in this situation. Go for it, and commit fully. Don't try to slide by on the cheap, you'll only annoy others and deprive yourself of the whole experience. Go with an 'in for a penny, in for a pound' attitude.

Capricorn:

Some days fly by in what feels like ten minutes -- while others drag on, in a seemingly endless test of your stamina. Which category will today end up falling into? Well, today could certainly prove to be a bit of an endurance test. Luckily, you will have plenty to keep you busy. You won't be watching the clock and wondering when quitting time is. Consider yourself lucky that you'll be able to stay active and engaged -- that's not the case for everyone.

Aquarius:

Are you trying to make a decision? If it's taking too long for your liking, or if other people are pushing you to hurry up already, then you have to do what it takes to figure things out today. First, stop trying to see things so completely -- narrow your focus! You can't explore all ways of doing something. You have to pick just a few possibilities and flesh them out in your mind. Give up on the idea that the perfect answer is out there, because it's not. Close enough is good enough.

Pisces:

Everyone and their brother has a tip for you today! Coworkers who've been there before, friends in high places, family members who worry about you -- even strangers who are just busybodies! -- all of them think that they know what you should do with your life. The only trouble is, you haven't asked any of them for their advice! Try to see their meddlesome ways as a sign that you matter in other people's lives. They want you to be happy, which is more flattering than annoying.
