Aries
You might think that you aren't using other people to your advantage, but you'd be wrong. Don't beat yourself up about it. Everyone does it, though that's really no excuse. Today, reexamine your relationships and take a critical look at the ones that are more about increasing your social status and popularity than about a real connection between two people. If you desire deeper relationships with the people in your social circle, you can have them. It's up to you to take the first step.
Taurus
Assumptions are dangerous things make. You might think that other people can change what they are doing to accommodate you today, but you'd be wrong. Their plans are firm, and you'll be the one who has to do some accommodating. Luckily, you're as flexible as ever, and it might even feel good to do some stretches today. You don't hold all the power now, but you don't have to feel powerless. Concentrate on reacting in a positive way.
Gemini
Although the seas may look calm today, you will be aware of the undertow. There are a lot of uncertain, confusing, and downright frustrating currents flowing just beneath the surface. And although you won't have any trouble keeping your head above water, don't strain yourself by trying to swim back to solid ground. Just float and enjoy the sensation of letting life's mysteries swirl around you.
Cancer
If other people misinterpret what you say, you must accept part of the blame. Giving the world a vague explanation of what you're feeling and then being annoyed when they don't get you isn't fair. Be more specific in your communication and a marvelous thing will happen. People will know what you want and work harder than ever to give it to you. This is especially true in romantic relationships, but it applies everywhere else too.
Leo
You might not have an incredibly strong sense of what you want in life, but don't use that as an excuse to do nothing. Right now, even if you don't quite know what direction you should go, you must keep going forward. Standing still will hurt your overall attitude and may even start to eat away at your self-respect, and you don't want that. Do what feels right, and when you can't decide what to do, it might be safest to follow the path of someone you greatly respect.
Virgo
A mentor or authority figure you trust may act a bit more critical than you were expecting, but don't let what they say upset you. This person is trying to help you. You should be grateful for their honesty and for the many people in your life who want to help you improve yourself. Relationships are all about mutual respect and honesty. If you tend to prefer people who tell you only what you want to hear, then the lessons you learn today will be especially valuable.
Libra
You're surrounded by abundance today and by many opportunities to lose your self-control and do things you may later regret. Know your limits, and make sure to stay on the right side of decorum. Also, think about the future. Avoid opting for immediate gratification when you can go for something that will be a lot more valuable to your life in the long run. Look for opportunities to grow, not opportunities to indulge.
Scorpio
Today, observing a group's interaction and reflecting on how these people are working together (or not) will teach you a lot about how to get what you want. You can probably come up with a better method in a flash. Why not share it with the group and see what happens? Implementing a new way of communicating is a smart way to improve overall morale and productivity. Plus, your brainstorming will get you noticed by some important people.
Sagittarius
Today is a great day to go to a concert or museum if you can manage to fit it into your busy schedule. Your emotions are in a melodious phase, and music and art hold a strong appeal for you now. The ideas that visual art represents will have special significance for you, and lyrics to songs will suddenly have a profound and comforting meaning. You can find guidance by listening to a new song or looking at a fascinating painting.
Capricorn
The support you've been giving a troubled friend will start to give them comfort, and you can expect a nice thank-you note or gift. This distressed pal has been working very hard on making positive changes and is about to receive some well-earned recognition. This nice ego boost will empower your friend to make one last big leap out of the doldrums and into a much happier phase. Be proud of the help you gave them.
Aquarius
The folks around you could get whiplash today if they try to follow your every move! With a million ideas buzzing in your head, you'll be going in a million directions at once. But be careful. You could flail all day long and waste a lot of energy if you don't make a plan with some structure. If you discipline yourself and get organized, you can actually make headway on one or two of your brilliant ideas. Quality, not quantity, should be your focus.
Pisces
You seem to be a jack of all trades today, full of an easy energy that can carry you past any petty squabbles and let you enjoy the entertainment value of the oddballs you'll encounter. People watching is going to be very amusing. If you're taking part in any group activities, consider nominating yourself group leader. You have something to offer that no one else does, and it's a crucial part of this team's success.
