Aries
When something has to be done, you're the first to step up and take control of the situation. You may have your own personal agenda as to why you want to get things done, but that doesn't make you any less effective as a leader. Right now, you have a way about you that makes other people want to follow you, and this attention allows you to move ahead with your plans with an air of confidence. Your boss or mate especially appreciates your willingness to take the initiative as well as your ability to make crucial decisions that they are having difficulty making on their own.
Back
Taurus
You could be feeling frustrated by even the most well-meaning person. While you may be forced to concede that everyone can't be exactly like you, that certainly doesn't stop you from expecting better behavior from the people you are spending the majority of your time with. You definitely don't go in for any kind of childish play, and anyone who tries and succeeds in embarrassing you can count on being exiled from your immediate circle of friends. There's nothing you'd like more than for everything to go smoothly and according to plan, which might be reassuring in the short term. However, this attitude doesn't make room for any type of spontaneity, flexibility or fun.
Back
Gemini
Your mind isn't quite made up, which makes it easy for someone to come along and influence your decision one way or the other. There's nothing wrong with making room for other people's opinions, but you should take steps to guard yourself from being taken advantage of or being led astray. Listen intently to what other people have to say about the topic in question, and then do your own research to either confirm or disprove their theories. Your perspective on certain issues may change, but the final word should be left entirely up to you.
Back
Cancer
Everything seems to be in the right spot, but you need to take a closer look. There are certain balances that are off at the moment, but the problem might be too subtle for you to notice upon first glance. If everyone in the group seems to be agreeing with what you say a little too quickly, take the time to talk to them on a one-on-one basis. Someone who is afraid to speak out in a group is much more likely to express their opinions in a more personal setting. Do your best to remain unemotional, even if you get some less-than-desirable feedback.
Back
Leo
If everyone is looking to you for the answers, you better be prepared to give them. And if you don't know the information they're asking you for offhand, you better start figuring out where you can attain it. When your pride and ego are on the line, you work hard, and this is one of those times. It might be difficult to let go of old ideas and comfortable situations, but if you're going to succeed at a leadership role, you have to be willing to be adaptable, especially when it comes to new technology. Once you truly believe that you're the right person for the job, very little will stand in your way.
Back
Virgo
If given the choice between something old and something new, it's always more exciting to pick the latter. This is the time to drop your inhibitions and your reservations and really be willing to experiment! In the past you've been too worried about safety precautions and what-ifs to truly let yourself go and experience all that life has to offer, but something inside of you is telling you to go for it today. Of course, if you just can't bring yourself to throw caution to the wind entirely, just do your best. Fun is completely what you make it.
Back
Libra
You aren't about to let anyone else spoil your good mood, are you? You know that you deserve to have a good time (how long has it been since you've been free of worrying about every little thing and taking care of all of your seemingly endless responsibilities?) and that's exactly what you plan on doing. You get along swimmingly with all kinds of groups of people today, and you don't have to necessarily know everyone to enjoy their company. Invite a big group of friends over for dinner or go to a restaurant by yourself to cultivate new friendships. The bigger the crowd, the better the time.
Back
Scorpio
You're usually calm and collected, but something has you bothered enough right now to make you really blow your top. Unexpectedly loud outbursts might not be the best way to deal with a bad situation, but you don't have the usual control over yourself that you normally do. If you have a chance, take a step back from the person or thing that is irritating you long enough to calm down just a bit and reassess your position. There might actually be a way out of this jam, but you're going to have to compose yourself if you want to find the nearest exit.
Back
Sagittarius
Saying exactly what you mean comes quite naturally to you, which means that you should be able to keep the number of misunderstandings you're involved in to a minimum. It doesn't matter how many things you have running through your mind, because all of your thoughts are being perfectly broadcast when you open your mouth. This is the perfect time to give a speech to a packed auditorium, recite a poem at a coffee shop, or sing a spontaneous song to the love of your life in the middle of a crowded park. Other people are sure to be envious of your superior public speaking talents, so enjoy the attention while you have it.
Back
Capricorn
You've heard it before -- something that seems too good to be true probably is -- so why aren't you paying attention this time? You are much more likely to be in the group that makes up the rule than the exception, especially when it comes to get-rich-quick schemes and various other scams. If you don't want to wind up regretting your purchases, it's absolutely imperative that you use your head before plunking down your hard-earned money for anything right now. There are some good deals to be found, but beware of false advertising and exaggerated product claims.
Back
Aquarius
If you make just a slight effort toward your goals, you can be one of the lucky few who can actually say that your ambition isn't being wasted. It always helps to have a plan, but right now you have the ability to come up with ingenious solutions even on the spur of the moment. Other people are likely to flock to your ideas -- especially since you have more than your fair share of energy and charisma working for you at the moment -- but there may not be room for everyone to climb aboard. Use a careful and exclusive selection process to ensure that you get the creme de la creme working with you.
Back
Pisces
Your best chance at happiness is to be open to change right now. You can't fight what's happening around you, so why not try to take an active part of the events as they unfold? Besides, a simple adjustment in attitude is pretty much all it will take for you to get with the program. You work best with someone mentoring you, but if you have to be on your own, try to follow the instructions you're given as closely as possible. Your dreams may have special significance tonight, but analyzing the hazy symbols could take some time.
