Aries:

Today your patience might be tested when one or more of your projects gets put on hold by someone else, either because they have power over you, or because they have flaked out on their part of things. As much as you might get angry, you need to take a philosophical view on things. This pause in the action was meant to happen for a reason -- possibly to give you time to double check the work you've done so far. Put your energy toward that instead of toward getting mad at someone else.

Taurus:

Your intense energy makes you a great candidate for a leadership position right now, so if you are ready to take on more power, grab it today! You have a way of effortlessly motivating people. You are great at helping them see past their individual goals, thus enabling them to focus all of their energy on what will benefit the greater population. This is a skill you need to practice, though. So don't beg off any new responsibilities because you think you'll get another chance, later.

Gemini:

If you aren't sure if you are ready to commit to a party, a date, a new job, or anything else that will take a chunk of your time, then don't say that you will commit just because you are afraid to hurt someone's feelings. The worst thing you can do is make a promise that you can't deliver on. It could brand you as an unreliable person, which you most definitely are not. So try not to be flighty -- be honest. In the end, people will appreciate honesty more than half-baked involvement.

Cancer:

Too many different elements in your life are overlapping with each other right now -- and it's your family that may fall to the bottom of the heap. So today, step back and slow things down. Make plans with your family or your family of friends to do something -- anything. You don't have to plan a huge dinner party or other elaborate event. Even just sitting around watching tv together will bring you back into each other's lives in the way that you need to be.

Leo:

The issues you'll be dealing with today are very complicated ones -- you will have to navigate your way through some very gray areas. You may find yourself wishing things were simpler and easier to figure out! But alas, there is no black and white -- no right or wrong. Everyone -- and everything-- is much more complicated than that. So take the time to really dig into the issues and see things not just from 'both' sides, but from all sides. It will put you in a much more powerful position.

Virgo:

You'll get along best with people who appeal to your more analytical side, today. Surprisingly, all of the folks who are trying to tug at your heartstrings will get little if any sympathy from you. You're hungry for facts and figures that clarify things, not feelings that make them warm and fuzzy. You want to know what is really going on so that you can make an objective evaluation. You're willing to see the other side of the argument, but you're not going to give people points for sob stories.

Libra:

Pick a cultural event that's coming up and get some tickets for it today. It's time to inject your life with a little dosage of high art -- an opera, touring musical, play, art opening, ballet, or modern dance performance would fit the bill nicely. Bring one of your more adventurous friends with you and make a whole arty night out of it. Even if you don't love every minute of the experience, the dedication to pure creativity will inspire you greatly.

Scorpio:

Someone will challenge a belief that you've held for a very long time today -- and they will say an awful lot of things that make sense. Your first instinct will be to defend your position as you have in the past, and discount their opinion if they don't eventually come around to agreeing with you. But today you should try to be open to what they are saying. Some of it will resonate with you in a profound way. Believe it or not, you could be wrong -- it does happen every once in a blue moon!

Sagittarius:

Someone in your life needs to step up and take on more responsibility -- and you need to tell them to. You've been getting a little tired of bearing the brunt of a certain project or task, and this inequity needs to end today. So how do you communicate this to them? Face to face. Make sure they don't misunderstand what you are telling them, and be available for questions. If you send an email or a text message, they will undoubtedly take things the wrong way and get defensive.

Capricorn:

Breaking the rules is not always a bad thing -- especially if the rules limit your creativity. Today, you shouldn't do what you are told. You should do what you want to do. Let any inspiration that comes your way guide you, and take you on a little adventure. It's time to let your brain loose on the world. Take it out of its 9-to-5 box and show it something that is has never seen before. It's the perfect day to view some modern art or a foreign film.

Aquarius:

Have you been feeling a bit bored with your life lately? Well, good news! Today offers you a great opportunity to stir things up and get your adrenaline going again! Sure, it might require you to take a risk or two, but isn't that the only way you can win sometimes? Insert yourself into an uncertain situation where you could be rejected or come out with less than you put in -- and just see what happens. No matter what the outcome is, you will be better off for it.

Pisces:

Communication is very important today -- written, spoken, and even nonverbal body language will all convey potent meanings. The people you'll be dealing with right now are tuned into you very closely -- even strangers will almost be able to finish your sentences. This means that you are probably going to be able to get an awful lot done in very little time, today. If you have been waiting for feedback from someone, call them today. They'll have an answer.
