Aries
If your patience with someone who's heavy on promises but light on delivery is wearing thin, today is the day to have a little heart-to-heart talk with them. It's not quite time for an ultimatum, but it is definitely time to tell this person to get real. The difficulty of your discussion will be in direct proportion to the relationship's closeness. Keep this in mind. Try not to mix business with friendship, because if you do, both could suffer in the long run.
Taurus
A new possession is bringing up some weird old feelings, and you're starting to wonder why such significance is put on material goods. Give yourself time to integrate this new item into your life, and don't worry if it just doesn't feel right yet. You will have to adapt, and it might not be comfortable at first, but it will teach you a valuable lesson. If you can deal with some short-term discomfort now, you'll enjoy a huge improvement in your standard of living later.
Gemini
You know that saying about good fences making good neighbors? It will ring very true to you today, when the more distance you keep between yourself and a friend, the likelier it is that you two will remain friends. Your lives are becoming a bit too intertwined, and a bit of separation will do you both good. Disregard some secrets you've recently been told — you should not assume that you've heard the truth. Remove yourself from an imbroglio that's just beginning. Stay neutral.
Cancer
You've got the sweet disposition that makes any medicine palatable right now, so don't be afraid to push for something you want. Your charm combined with genuine enthusiasm will encourage other people to be very receptive to your ideas. It looks as though something that you've been wanting to take off will finally get some lift today. Powerful movers and shakers are on board, and you could be looking at a bona fide success very soon!
Leo
A short, casual conversation could evolve into a lengthy discussion that goes around in circles today, but you and your curious mind will love every minute of it. Dig into some complex, multifarious issues, and explore their many facets and subtle nuances. No two people experience the same reality, and when two people try to explain their realities to each other, the resulting conversation can be quite fascinating. Listen carefully. You might hear something that blows your mind.
Virgo
When was the last time you experienced something that was truly foreign to you? Today, explore an aspect of an unfamiliar religion, philosophy, or culture. You should welcome the new ideas you meet today with open arms. Some ideas will be too confusing to pay attention to, but quite a few will be intriguing enough to warrant a greater portion of your time in the future. And one of them could change your life. Today is a day to make plans and aim high.
Libra
When someone starts a heavy conversation today, it may be an attempt to get closer to you. Don't shut down or be afraid to share, but don't let yourself be forced to say more than you want. Many new people will soon be showing up in your life, and their attention could surprise you. Get ready for big demands on your time, from many different directions. Think about the type of energy you want in your life and then cozy up to the people who can give it to you.
Scorpio
Your flexibility could help you win a fun battle today. In a contest to see who is willing to do more, you could come out on top easily. The way you always make things work out perfectly, even in very difficult conditions, is something that many powerful people admire. Someone is trying to emulate you (perhaps a little too closely for your comfort), but keep in mind that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Sagittarius
You may think that there is a little too much on your plate right now, but the Universe is confident that you can handle it all without any problem. Some recent events have dented your self-esteem a little bit, but today offers you a wonderful opportunity to smooth out those dents and get yourself feeling shiny and new again. All you have to do is take any opportunity you're given, and you'll plow through everything on your to-do list, one item at a time.
Capricorn
Today, pattern your behavior after some of the children in your life, and let go of some of your self-conscious assumptions about how you "should" act. This doesn't mean you should act immature (no food fights or temper tantrums)! Rather, you should let go of a few hang-ups for good. It's time you realized that life is a crazy ride, and you should ensure that you have at least a few minutes of playtime each day. Being productive is not so very important today.
Aquarius
Someone who thinks that stories from their past apply to your life needs a reality check. This person truly wants to help you, so keep that in mind when you explain that you're not interested in listening to any more tactless reminiscing or unsuitable advice. Some people just aren't able to see that their insight isn't helping or is, in fact, hurting. Remember this next time you want to use stories from your personal history as a way of giving someone else guidance.
Pisces
When something is troubling you, it can be helpful to try to live in an illusion and keep yourself so distracted that you don't have to deal with unpleasant thoughts. This is an acceptable short-term solution, but it's a very bad long-term strategy. Today, you need to face the reality of where you are and what has been going on. Reality is never as awful as you fear. Plus, you can't get control of your life if you don't see it accurately.
