Aries:

Today will be a lovely, breezy day -- so why not get outdoors and enjoy some of the fresh air (weather permitting, of course)? Wide open spaces will help to open up your mind and freshen up your attitude about an issue that has been frustrating you lately. All that oxygen will give you new ideas and it might even help you think up a few new adventures to embark upon. Go for a long walk, take a hike, or just park at the far end of the parking lot. Breath it all in.

Taurus:

Your charm is usually quite a handy skill, but today it can really open up a lot of exciting doors for you -- especially if you are going to be dealing with people from other cultures. Sure, initially there might be a little bit of a communications gap, but you will have a way of overcoming it with a smile and other nonverbal cues. You are in an excellent position to affect your travel in the future -- and do some research about where you want to explore next.

Gemini:

You are to be commended for trying to see things from all possible angles -- your gift for compassion and empathy is unusual, and it has helped earn you a reputation for being fair and considerate. But right now, you might need to stop looking at all the angles in order to act more quickly. Taking time to understand the whole picture is always the best strategy, but it not always a practical one. Use your intuition and your logic to figure out the right path to take. Chances are, you're right.

Cancer:

Your coworkers are in your life to help you in your career -- not in your personal life. Be very wary of the relationships that are veering away from professional and into private. This is not to say that you can never be friends (or even more than friends) with a coworker -- you can. But you need to be mindful of the difference. Understand that there's an appropriate time and place to gossip or giggle. In the middle of an important meeting isn't it.

Leo:

Something has ignited your wanderlust -- whether it's a book or an article you just read, a foreign film you just saw, or a travel poster you glimpsed on a coworker's wall. You need to feed your passion for travel today. Planning your next vacation is a great way to spend whatever free time you have. Surf around and check out different travel websites. Find out more about the one or two places you've always wanted to visit. You'll get a big rush out of learning more about what to do when or if you go there.

Virgo:

If your patience is running thin for a fickle friend, give them a tap on the shoulder today and let them know that you are not going to stand for this much longer. You might have to force yourself to be this direct, but being vague or beating around the bush will only give them permission to continue with their erratic behavior. You have to stand up for what you deserve in a relationship. Otherwise, what is the point of being a friend to this person?

Libra:

It has been quite a while since you've pursued something purely for its intellectual value -- so why not work on that today? You will have plenty of opportunity to do so. Smart people are ready to talk, and they're ready to talk about some very interesting topics that you've been wondering about yourself. And don't be afraid of saying something stupid. Not speaking up is stupid. Asking to learn more about something you don't know anything about is smart.

Scorpio:

Are you getting too focused on immediate gratification, right now? Do you really have to have whatever it is right this instant? It's important to practice patience and to learn the value of saving up for something you want to buy for yourself, later. Delayed gratification is where it's at, so you need to put off buying yourself anything for a few more days -- impulse buying will only cause you to make some retail mistakes. If you want something badly enough, then you can wait for it.

Sagittarius:

You might not think that you can compromise what you want in order to meet someone else's demands right now, but you are wrong. Try harder to let your generosity do the negotiating. Put yourself in their position, and you will suddenly be a lot more sensitive to what they are asking for. This might be the right time to bend over backwards for the sake of someone else. Why? Because in the end, what you give up will be surpassed by the goodwill you gain.

Capricorn:

The idealistic side of you will engage in battle with your more-jaded internal other half today, when you are stuck at a crossroads between doing what is right and doing what you know is good enough. Who will win? It's up to you to decide. Will you help build your reputation as someone who always gets things done right, or as someone who gets things done fast, but sometimes has to go back and fix a few things? Consider taking the longer, harder -- and more rewarding -- route.

Aquarius:

If one or two social connections are fading away, don't worry about it. Just because you haven't seen them for a while does not mean that you couldn't call them up and ask them to lunch -- or even just ask them for some advice. The relationships you've built are based on respect, and these people respect you. So if someone from your past could provide the help you need right now, don't think you can't call them just because it's been a while. They'd love to hear from you!

Pisces:

Today a sweet gift may land right in your lap, and it might seem like there are no strings attached. But look more closely! Pay attention to how the person who gave you the gift is acting -- do they expect something from you in return? Does accepting the gift make you complicit in something that you're not comfortable with? You might feel guilty being so suspicious of such a nice person, but nothing in life is free. You need to get to the bottom of things.
