Aries:

Do not let someone's nasty comment eat away at you -- they are only trying to push your buttons, and if you get mad, you'll only play into their hands. Instead, be extra good to them. Show them more respect than they have shown you. Kill them with kindness. By rising above the petty fight they seem to be itching for, you will show them -- and the influential people who may be watching -- that you are better than they are. Taking the high road is always wise for you.

Taurus:

Someone at work or school is trying to get a rise out of you by acting in an unusual or controversial way. They'll be deliberately saying and doing things in order to get your attention -- could it be that they have a little crush on you? Probably. But to you, their weird behavior is nothing you can't roll with, so their little plan is going to backfire on them! They've underestimated how smart you are -- but they are still intrigued. So enjoy the chase.

Gemini:

Are you feeling intimidated by an intellectual who's just popped onto the scene? Don't be! The more they talk about how much they know, the more obvious it will become that they don't really know what they are talking about. So just let them hog the spotlight for as long as they want, and they will quickly prove to everyone just how smart they aren't. True intelligence is all about knowing that you don't know everything -- be humble, and keep learning.

Cancer:

Tempo is key today -- do your best to stay in rhythm with the people around you, which will be no easy task. Each of the people you encounter today is marching to the beat of their own drummer, and you'll have to be ready to go faster or slower, depending. This challenge will be good for you, though -- it will teach you how to treat people as individuals and anticipate their needs. It will help you learn to be even more flexible than you already are!

Leo:

Give yourself a lot of compassion today -- you might not need it, but you have to remind yourself that if the chips are ever down, you can always rely on yourself. You are your own best support staff! You cannot listen to negative people who are telling you how badly things could go. Instead, just put your blinders on -- it's okay to do that once in a while! Turn off the outside world, and find comfort inside your mind. You will find all the encouragement and love you need.

Virgo:

To encourage more growth in one of your friendships, you should be more generous with your constructive criticism. This person can take honesty -- and they want you to be honest with them. You just have to be sure that you give them that honesty with a sugar coating. Focus on the positive and amp up your enthusiasm before telling them the downside of their behavior. You have a right to be a more active part of this relationship. And in order to do so, you have to speak up more.

Libra:

Today, try to spice up your life by trying something new and different -- whether it's a new household renovation project, a new bestselling novel, a new type of cuisine, or just a new route to and from work. Getting stuck in a routine is no fun -- especially now, when there are so many wonderful things in your life to explore. There is no excuse for not mixing things up today. You have the time, you have the energy, and you definitely will have the desire you need!

Scorpio:

You will probably get a strong urge to exercise your creativity on your living quarters today. And if you have the time to do it, you definitely should -- the universe is sending you all the energy you need to repaint the kitchen, fix a broken chair, clean out a closet, and execute other types of domestic re-engineering. Where you live says a lot about who you are. Make sure to add your personal flair so that visitors see the real you when they walk in the door.

Sagittarius:

More than ever before, you are feeling confident and your communication skills are exceptional. You are finally ready to have that difficult discussion you've been putting off for a while. So step right up to the annoying person who's been pushing your buttons for far too long. Give a piece of your mind to that coworker who thinks they know everything. You don't have to be rude about what you say to them, you just have to make it clear to them that you won't tolerate it any longer.

Capricorn:

Someone who is where you want to be in life is giving you a vision of the future you want to have some day -- but what you might not realize is that that day is closer than you think. Switch your focus from your day to day routine and start thinking bigger picture. Expand your worldview to wake up your ambition -- start letting it drive your actions at work or at school. Talk to the people in power, and let them know that you're ready to work for what you want.

Aquarius:

More than ever today, it is important for you to remember that you are not in charge of anyone else's happiness -- you are only in charge of your own. Everyone else must find their own way to fulfillment and joy, so do not fall for any guilt that might get tossed your way. And if other people are holding you responsible for their unhappiness, they are not being fair. It might sound harsh, but you have to put your own real needs ahead of their perceived needs today.

Pisces:

Despite the fact that the people around you right now might be less than thrilled about what is going on, you have to keep your bright outlook! Don't join in with others who might be throwing a great big pity party -- they are never much fun after everyone agrees to be miserable. Let other people live under a cloud while you choose to stay hopeful and focused on going where it is that you want to go. Of course, you need to be prepared to go there by yourself.
