Aries:

Time to cuddle up! Whether that means with a sweetheart, Fido or getting a bunch of friends over to your house for some quality time, it's a day filled with love and affection from your nearest and dearest. It's also a prime moment to reach out and touch someone. For example, is there someone from your past you haven't talked to in a while? Bet they're thinking about you right now. Why not give them a call and see?



Taurus:

Weigh in with your opinion. What you have to say counts, too, you know. Now it's time to show others how valuable your thoughts are by valuing them yourself. It doesn't mean you have to shut anyone down or be disrespectful, however. One of the hallmarks of someone who respects their own opinions is that they can listen to what others have to say. Once it's your turn, speak up and speak firmly. You'll make an impression.



Gemini:

Do you feel like Alice, chained to the fast lane in the Red Queen's race? That is, running as fast as you can only to end up in exactly the same place? Obviously the most sensible thing is to stop what you're doing and figure out why all this motion isn't resulting in some forward movement. The answer might be as simple as working smarter -- not harder -- and getting rid of old habits that make you feel quite zippy but don't accomplish as much as they should.



Cancer:

You've got an outrageous (and hilarious) sense of humor, and usually everyone loves your jokes -- the more risque, the better. However, if you're at an office party or a gathering with some older folks, it might be better to keep a lid on your tart tongue and trenchant wit. Save it for those folks who you know always get the joke. If you're around big mucky-mucks, why risk any trouble? Your caution will serve you well.



Leo:

How long has it been since you and your friend, partner or parent have sat down and talked about things that matter? The stars give you and your loved ones unusual (yes, even for you) eloquence and thoughtfulness today. It's a great time to cut through the chitter-chatter and to speak from the heart. Even if you're not tackling the big issues of life, communication will be easier and sweeter than they've been in a while.



Virgo:

Feeling defensive about something can become a self-fulfilling prophecy -- i.e., with a tough-cookie stance, is it any surprise that people start throwing some tough-cookie attitude your way? Instead of automatically assuming the worst about a situation or someone's intentions, why not try seeing what's actually in front of you? Better yet, if someone does act up, how about not taking any of it personally? You just might save yourself a whole lot of hassle that way.



Libra:

Offer someone some kindness, and you might just be surprised at what they offer back. It's very easy to go through life on the defensive, but if you make an honest gesture from the heart, very often you'll receive an equally honest gesture back. So whether that means volunteering or doing daily check-ins on your elderly neighbor to make sure he's okay, don't waste a moment. Start spreading the love right now.



Scorpio:

Slow and steady wins the race, especially where business matters are concerned. Usually you can rely on your uncanny intuition and your almost supernatural ability to read people, but right now it's time to slow down and really go over the details as carefully and conscientiously as possible. If you get a chance, ask a colleague to double-check your work -- they might just catch something that missed even your canny eye. Hey, it wouldn't hurt!



Sagittarius:

Whenever you get a box of chocolates, it's tempting to poke them all so you can figure out what the fillings are before you taste them. But where's the fun in that? So if you've got a myriad of options facing you, avoid the temptation to overanalyze and interpret them to death. Just pick one and dive right in. No matter what it is, it's sure to have a delicious, fun-filled center, so what are you afraid of?



Capricorn:

It's time for some fun. Sure, you've got a lot of work to get done first, but once you finish (and you will, soon) your perseverance will pay off with a ton of fun. Invite your sweetie or some friends you haven't seen in a while along with you and enjoy yourselves. Remember to let your loved ones know how much you love them. They don't hear it enough, even though you feel it often. So, get your work done and then have some fun!



Aquarius:

You might be having a bad case of Groucho Marx Syndrome right about now -- i.e., why would you want to belong to any club that would have you as a member? Well, scrap that train of thought pronto. The stars have given you a heaven-sent opportunity and you should take advantage of it, pronto. Don't question about whether you really deserve the spot or whether it was a fluke. You do and it wasn't. So go for it.



Pisces:

In order to get other people to respect you, you first have to respect yourself. So make like a L'Oreal commercial and tell yourself that you're worth it -- because you are. The stars heartily endorse any moves you make toward building your self esteem right now. Why not take a concrete action that shows how much you value yourself? Get more exercise. Take a class. Refuse to spend time with people you find boring. Who knows? All this self-appreciation might just lead to really great things.

i need a break!!!!
