Aries
The theme is the more, the merrier, but dealing with all these people has you a bit rattled. If you are the host or hostess in charge of the festivities, the only choice you have is to be laid-back. In social situations, you must always keep in mind that broad acceptance is much more fun than exclusionary perfection. When good friends get together, nobody wants to be the first to leave. A little bit of pleasant friction keeps you alert and happy.
Back
Taurus
You feel great. Someone offers you possibilities on a silver platter, and you would be a fool not to take advantage of all the opportunities that are set out before you. Everything you do is useful in one way or another, even if that means it just makes you happy. If you are part of a team, you will most likely be chosen to be the leader. You don’t really care what others think as long as you convince them to play along.
Back
Gemini
Over the next few days, your goals will line up perfectly with your methods for attaining them. The alignment allows you to make the most of any journey that you choose to undertake. Ideas are your stock in trade. No matter what occurs with the market, you are soaring high with the investments that you have made with your mind. The return that you yield defies all reasonable predictions and leaves even the experts in awe. You appeal to others on levels that they can understand.
Back
Cancer
You put up a great front, especially when there are masters working behind the scenes to make you look good. It will do you good to surround yourself with people that can both serve and amuse -- and who also are, above all, competent. The stories that you tell right now are designed for their calculated effect on certain hand-picked guests, but these folks are none the wiser. Now that you are at the gate, it is safe to start your engine for a full day of showing off.
Back
Leo
You have an excellent can-do attitude, but sometimes not everything is possible. Work on changing what you can, and learn to accept what you cant. The new material is doomed to get mixed in with the old stuff, so why try to fight it? Your sense of order would be a lot stronger if you turned down the volume on that ego, Leo. Your immediate goal right now should be to end this day by going home satisfied instead of frustrated.
Back
Virgo
Just when you thought you have seen the last of something useless, here it comes again. There is not much you can do as an individual, but luckily you can rely on others to come through for you when the going gets tough. In fact, the cooperation of others is the key to your success. Are you overlooking an important detail? Ask the group to look at the evidence one more time in case you missed something the first time. Try to make your case one last time, but keep it fresh.
Back
Libra
Is this what you worked so hard to accomplish? All of your efforts leave you feeling like a caged animal right now, Libra. No one can blame you for wanting to escape. Success has its price, and you may be fantasizing more and more about unplugging from the machine. Weigh all of your options very carefully before pulling out of the rat race. There are good and bad points to each side. Your opponents viewpoints suddenly come crystal clear later in the day.
Back
Scorpio
You cant expect everyone to admire -- or even understand -- the unique personal style that you are determined to display right now. Your sense of mystery is just another personal taste that others are not in tune with. If you are involved with someone, you should allow them to go off on their own for a while. There will be plenty of time to reconnect later, after you have done your thing. Sometimes the real excitement is in the tale that you tell to someone that was not there.
Back
Sagittarius
Someone hopes for your emotional commitment. There are many ways of asking a question, some of which could be very indirect. You may need to dig deeply before hitting pay-dirt. Don’t expect it to happen instantly. It may feel like there is a good deal going on, but in reality, it is a lot of talk and little action. Make sure you keep busy, as boredom can creep up in a moments notice today. What you may have thought was the problem may only be a thin veneer for the truth. Be careful how you approach things -- situations are tenuous, but ultimately within your control.
Back
Capricorn
The front office people roll up their sleeves and take inventory in the warehouse for a change. When roles are reversed, everyone gets a chance at a new perspective. When you get a chance to see the things that usually happen behind your back, you will most likely be amazed at what you discover. This is one time when it is okay to say what you feel, Capricorn. The only way anyone can view this is as a complete and total learning experience.
Back
Aquarius
You did not get to where you are by accident. Even if others cant put their finger on what it is exactly, there is something extremely special about you at the moment. Positive feelings are so necessary that you could not imagine anything else. Whether you are addressing an individual or the world at large, show them exactly what you mean instead of simply telling them. This is a pivotal time in your life, Aquarius, but you will probably have a hard time articulating how happy you are to be here.
Back
Pisces
If you are being met with a lot of resistance, just let go. If you insist on pushing, you will only be pushed back harder and further than you were before. Under the Moon, the phrase artistic discipline does not have to be an oxymoron. Sometimes freedom exists because of the boundaries, Pisces. Do what you want as long as it is allowed by the people who are in charge. Coloring outside of the lines is sloppy and unattractive -- as well as far beneath your level of expertise.
