Aries
Your honest assessments go down well with others today because of the sincerity shining from your eyes. Even if they don't agree, it's so obvious that you have no ulterior motives, so they accept your opinions in the spirit you offer them. Such an atmosphere can lead to good, productive discussions of options and alternatives, with little chance that it will deteriorate into petty turf squabbles. Good show!
Back
Taurus
Review your financial portfolio today. It might be time to take a less aggressive approach in terms of your investments and to divert some reserves into more conservative channels. If you use a broker or other financial professional, do not succumb to any high-pressure sales tactics, no matter what. Advice is fine if you ask for it, but you must make your own decisions.
Back
Gemini
Up one minute and down the next, you hardly know what you're doing today, so is it any wonder that others have trouble keeping up with you? Working together is the only way you'll accomplish anything, so settle yourself and pay close attention to how you're communicating. Your interpersonal skills will spell the difference between smooth functioning and disgruntled chaos.
Back
Cancer
Take some time for yourself today. It doesn't matter what you do -- sit quietly and think, go out to a movie, take a drive in the country -- as long as you are not tending to another's needs, but are doing exactly what you want to do at that moment. Being overextended for too long will take both a physical and an emotional toll. It's important to minister to yourself when the stress begins to build.
Back
Leo
You have little patience with game players today, seeing their subterfuges as petty time-wasters. You want to move things along in a straightforward and honest way instead of taking these ultimately wasteful detours or pouring energy into building up another's confidence. Consequently, some may perceive you as brusque and imperious, but you will get the ball rolling in a straight line.
Back
Virgo
A scheduling conflict could play havoc with your plans today. Family members may have unbreakable commitments that you must honor, even if it means you cannot attend a function you were looking forward to with anticipation. Some transient feelings of selfishness could obscure your vision for a while, but you get over the disappointment quickly when you calmly acknowledge that family life can sometimes be a tricky balancing act.
Back
Libra
With facts and figures at your fingertips, you shine during a class, book club, political group or other type of discussion. While you're never short of opinions, your brain sometimes does not deliver enough supporting data on cue to make you a persuasive speaker. But today you could convince a farmer that the sky is brown and the ground is blue. Use your power wisely and well.
Back
Scorpio
You are in immanent danger of losing your common sense. It's not your fault; someone you encounter today is so slick and so persuasive that you could find yourself agreeing before you know it. It's almost as if you've been hypnotized. No matter what they're selling -- products, services, opinions, whatever -- do yourself a favor and insist on time to think it over before you commit one way or the other.
Back
Sagittarius
Surround yourself with friends today. Perhaps you can all go out to lunch, attend a special event or simply gather in someone's kitchen for a lively roundtable. If you can't all get together at the same time, plan more than one rendezvous. You're in high spirits today and eager for a sociable outlet. If your friends suggest venturing outside your usual haunts, so much the better.
Back
Capricorn
Your mind outstrips your physical abilities today, moving with lightning speed from one thought, plan and idea to another before you can jot them down or pick up the phone. This is one of those times when you need to make an extra effort to impose some mental discipline. Your inspirations won't disappear if you slow the process down, but no concrete results are likely to occur if you don't.
Back
Aquarius
Throw an impromptu party. It doesn't have to involve time-consuming preparations. Your guests will be just as happy with a few easy-to-prepare snacks as an elaborate sit-down dinner. The whole point is to create an effervescent and sociable atmosphere, an achievement you can accomplish with ease. This could be a great way to get to know new neighbors.
Back
Pisces
The actions you take today are totally justified, but you'll want to explain yourself in terms of your own ethics and convictions instead of taking to a very public soapbox to proclaim that you speak for everyone. Your actions may influence others' opinions, but only if you allow them to draw their own conclusions and make their own decisions. Remember that true leaders inspire; they do not coerce.
