DAILY HOROSCOPE

Today's Horoscope for Capricorn

Rely on your charm today to get you the results you desire. While you possess both intelligence and wit, don't underestimate the power of a bright smile and twinkling eye. Your gift of gab could come in useful at a social event today.

Keep in mind that not everyone wants to hear your opinions. It might be hard, but keeping your mouth shut would be in your best interest. Little things people do or say are likely to irritate you much more than usual, so remind yourself not to blow anything out of proportion.

You have the Midas touch today. Anything you do or say is likely to bring great rewards. Now would be a good time to take career risks. People will be drawn to your magnetism today, as the charm and luck you exude will be immense.

Kick your feet up today and enjoy an afternoon at home. It's best to catch up on the rest you need. If possible, ask your spouse or loved one for a massage. Focus on what makes you feel most contented and relaxed.

Go on an adventure today! Take a trip to somewhere you've never been and let both your mind and imagination indulge in the wonders of this location. If possible, share it with a newer acquaintance or someone you want to get to know better. You could discover something new about yourself on this... want more?

Clear up loose ends today you may have if you want to avoid anxious feelings. Whether it's matters of the heart or mind, it's better to face up to things you've been avoiding. Reflect upon any hardships you may encounter today and try to learn from them rather than becoming discouraged.

Avoid coming off as overconfident today. You'll most likely spend the day with friends at a sporting event or engaging in other energetic activities. Refrain from bragging about your capabilities or your knowledge about something. Sometimes listening is better than being heard.

Your family might drive you crazy today. Whether your spouse is nagging you or your kids are running wild, it'll be a challenging day on the domestic front. Keep in mind that it's the holiday season and things are bound to get a little hectic. Don't let yourself get too worked up over trivial... want more?

It's better to keep your checkbook closed today. Resist the urge to buy a last minute present or a large ticket item you've been eyeing. If your you feel more overwhelmed than usual, put some time aside for yourself at the end of the day. Nurturing your body will make the rest of the week much... want more?

Surround yourself with family and loved ones today. Make time to eat dinner or go to the movies together tonight. However, don't partake in any recent family squabbles, even if your relatives are trying their hardest to drag you into the middle of it. Remaining neutral will benefit you in the long... want more?

You'll find unsavory relatives or family members amusing rather than annoying today. You could host a party or holiday gathering tonight. People will seek your opinion and advice on a variety of topics. Now's also a good time to introduce friends and family who've yet to meet each other.

You may find yourself in the center of a family argument today. In fact, all matters on the home front could be a little uneasy. Don't make any major repairs to your house or redecorate under this influence. Avoid making large home purchases as well.

Dreams don't speak in a straightforward language, but if you listen carefully, there's a lot of rich information there. You're getting some signals about what direction to take with your love life, so pay attention.

Who's behind creating the unrealistic expectations and impossible time lines regarding your romantic life? Hey, remember that old song about how you can't hurry love? Hum it to yourself a few times today.

Beating yourself up over your romantic past will only leave you with fresh bruises -- it won't solve any of your current issues. Instead, forgive yourself for your choices and vow to learn from them instead.

A friend tells you that it's time to compromise to find true romance. You understand that as having to lower your standards. In fact, neither are true. What you need to do is open your mind and heart to all the possibilities.

Stealing hearts is second nature to you -- you charm others just by breathing in and out. However, you have more say than you think over your charisma. Make sure you're using it wisely, okay?

When it comes to a love interest, better be safe than sorry. Double-check all written communication, and make sure that they really understand what you're saying. Interpretations can vary wildly.

Are you unwittingly imitating your parents' relationship and its effect on you? It's time to look at some old patterns from your childhood and your current romantic relationships. Breaking the cycle starts now.

Love is all around, if you can only see it. You may or may not have a romantic prospect in your life, but more importantly, you're surrounded by affection. Friends, family, coworkers -- they adore you.

Like the old blues song says, 'Is you is or is you ain't my baby?' Someone in your life is awfully good at flirting, but not so great on the follow-through. If you're finding this more frustrating than fun, cut them loose.

If you're constantly asking, 'Why does this always happen to me?' it could be that you're asking the wrong question entirely. Don't you think it's time you took responsibility for your own love life?

You agreed to see this person again before you knew what you know now. Perhaps this situation needs to be examined more closely. Your loyalty might be misplaced in this case. Tough choices are necessary.

You really dig this person -- but you're worried. Shouldn't your relations be more complicated, more fraught, more, well, dramatic? Not at all! The only dramatic relationships are usually unhealthy ones.

Karma is a powerful force, and right now it is having a profound effect on your life. Your past actions determine whether today is great, awful or somewhere in between, but that should inspire you in the future.

Your mind is on the future today, and it's a great time to set something new in motion. You may be able to score something that can make a real difference in your life for quite some time.

You can't always help how other people see you, tough as that may be to accept. Today you need to realize that sometimes, even the best P.R. Can only get you a moment's worth of attention.

Follow your hunches today -- they almost can't steer you wrong! Your powerful emotional energy is sufficient to carry you through almost any situation, too, so don't be shy about making waves.

Today is not about money -- at least not as far as you're concerned. You may need to try something a little different, so see if you can get someone else to help you manage your day-to-day life for the time being.

You know everything changes eventually -- but that doesn't mean you've got to like it! Today brings a pretty big shift in the ground beneath your feet, so expect to find new answers to new problems.

Your role today is to support your closest friends, family and colleagues as they try to make their lives easier ti handle. That's one of your specialties, so show them how it's done with style!

Make something beautiful today -- maybe a work of art, maybe a happy friend or maybe just a sweet idea to file away for later. Your ability to get things lined up the right way is amazing right now!

Your mood is just right for seeing how things could be different and applying old lessons to your own life. You may see a little tableau arranged near a bus stop and suddenly know what to do with your life!

Expect multiple requests for favors or attention -- requests that you are only too glad to help out with. Your great energy makes you want to support friends and family, so everyone is better off.

You may be pretty level-headed most of the time (barring the occasional wild idea), but today your senses are poking into the realm of the mystical. Don't worry, you're not going crazy.

Try out something new today -- it can be almost anything, as long as it's been on your mind for a while and makes you wonder how different life can be. There's got to be at least one unfinished project in your life.

Try not to waste any energy today. Whether this means that you will remember to turn the lights off when you leave a room, or that you will spend your evening relaxing in an over-stuffed chair, is up to you.

Be prepared to pull together your household to work as an assembly line tonight. This may be as simple as 'you wash, I'll dry,' or as complex as a jelly cannery, with several pots boiling and many hands to help.

There may be a slight misunderstanding in your household this afternoon. There is a big difference between 'clean out' and 'throw out'! Treat this with caution -- another's little treasures can appear as junk to you.

Your mind just can't stay focused this evening as you try to work your way through the simplest of tasks. Let your mind go where it needs to go, and if you have a choice while making dinner, be the stirrer instead of the chopper.

A quiet moment with your laptop on the couch allows you to research that new orchid that came without any information or instructions. As you get your answers online, you will find that most of your instincts were right!

Everyone has their own style while working in the kitchen. Today it may be best to vacate the room instead of watching your housemate pull everything out of the fridge while dirty dishes climb higher in the sink.

Take a moment to appreciate the smaller things today. When was the last time that you really looked at -- let alone polished -- the fixtures on your dresser drawers? And couldn't that doorknob turn a little more smoothly?

Though it doesn't seem like that much of a talent, you have a real skill when it comes to throwing things out. It takes a lot of self-confidence to not get overly sentimental about things. Coach others in your household to toss with courage!

Something in the air will have you feeling a bit scatter-brained today. How many times can one misplace, find, then lose their keys again? Have a lucid partner around to be a second pair of eyes. And when all else fails, check behind the bed.

A series of recent grievances in the house may have you chartering your own Magna Carta today. Brush off your creative writing skills, and don't forget your sense of humor as you bullet-point the new house rules.

Your intentions tonight were great -- clean out the fridge, take out the trash, do the dishes. But don't be surprised if you get distracted while cleaning out the fridge and start making chili that's inspired by the things you find in the crisper.

It's not the whole room that's bothering you; it just needs a new twist -- something to brighten or alter or change your perspective. Instead of repainting the entire room, try painting just one wall and see how much it affects your mood.

A lot of last year's difficulties, if you think about it, boiled down to a lot of fiddly little details getting in the way of you realizing your dreams. Let's be honest about it, Aries: struggling with the small stuff just isn't your style. In the next year, you'll find that a lot of these pressures... want more?

Taurus always gets tagged with things like 'pleasure-seeking' and 'materialistic.' That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life... want more?

Isn't it great being a Gemini? All that charm, that mental flexibility, that ability to see both sides of the issue ... you're the wonder of the zodiac. Take a bow. The problem with that is that both sides of the issue have been kind of a drag. Good news: that's all going to change in the next... want more?

One thing that all Crabs (astrological Cancers or the seafood type of crab) know deep in their hearts is that someone, somewhere out there knows how great it would be to bust them wide open and eat them with melted butter. The big news for you this year, Cancer, is that Pluto has moved into your... want more?

Oh, big playful Leo -- how the last couple of years have been dramatic (and often less than kind) for you! There's little doubt that whatever you've gone through in the last year, the uppers have fueled your inherent charm and lovability, and the downers have gotten a little ignored. That's one of... want more?

The symbol for Libra is Balance. In the next year, you'll find yourself doing even more balancing than usual; you're going to be pressed to decide if your internal sense of happiness should be the focus of life more than the outward signs of success. This may have been weighing heavily on your mind... want more?

Scorpios have a certain reputation for taking things a little too seriously, and to some extent you've earned that. The next year is going to give you new opportunities to really express yourself in new ways, and to get results from all that Scorpionic intensity you've been carrying around all your... want more?

Did you just hear that gigantic cry of 'hooray'? That was the sound of millions of Sagittarian lives getting better in 2010. Pluto has moved out of your sign, and Saturn has left Virgo (which wasn't doing you any favors either, as you may have noticed from the unusual pressures in your home life,... want more?

One of the things that never seems to come across in those generic descriptions of Capricorns is their inherent sweetness. You're every bit as kind and caring as anyone else (if not more so), but have a tendency to hide it behind a mask that downplays your vulnerability. Now that Pluto (the planet... want more?

Aquarius often gets pegged as being a little too cerebral for its own good. But the truth is, that's where you do your best work. The next year is going to give you the opportunity to use those sharp mental powers to focus on what it is you really want out of life. Two eclipses fall in your Twelfth... want more?

Okay, pause for a moment and check your pulse. Still there? Good. That means you survived the last couple of years with both Saturn and Pluto in less-than-perfect places for you. And by 'less than perfect,' I mean 'lousy.' Good news! Both of astrology's heavyweights have moved on to more... want more?

Whew! Feel that enormous burden sliding off of your shoulders, like you've been carrying around an overstuffed backpack for the last couple of years? That would be Saturn, planet of structures and limitation, moving out of your sign. Congratulations, first of all, on having simply made it through... want more?

Happy 2010, everyone! Regardless of what Sun sign you are, the one thing you can always count on is change ... the planets are always moving. New action and new players will be entering your life throughout the year. Like a weather forecast, your Yearly Horoscope can help you plan ahead, from... want more?

Now that you think of it, you have no real problems compared to how bad some have it. Realizing that makes you want to reach out and use your money and energy to help others. 'Tis the season to do it for financial reasons, but you're doing it for strictly karmic ones.

Most of your friends don't want to hear your problems right now and you can't really blame them. You couldn't even pay someone to take an earful today. But there is someone who wants to hear all about it, totally free. Single out that one compassionate friend.

It seems just plain wrong to be frustrated today, but none of the festivities can change how you feel. At least you're clear about it. Throwing money at it won't help, either. What will is doing something creative. Dig up the paraphernalia of a long forgotten hobby. Consider it therapy.

You make good use of your downtime. Pondering your personal philosophy has never been timelier. Is your main source of happiness really money? Say it ain't so. You'll find if you explore your less well-known motivations that you have a lot more to offer the world than that.

All financial dealings will come to a grinding halt soon enough. Spend today getting clear about what to do with your money, then do it. Whether you're spending it, saving it or investing it, it demands your attention.

When it comes to mundane daily matters, business moves at a snail's pace. You really can't blame people for it, either. Give up early on getting much done today. Relent and join in the festivities instead.

It's time to give up on the big bucks, at least for the next few days. Giving it a rest is good for the soul, as well as the only logical response to what's going on around you. If you just can't get in a jolly mood, help with the decorating. That should restore your sense of harmony.

You might long for 20 assistants instead of one, but honestly, they wouldn't bring in twenty times the money for you. Not to mention the twenty presents you'd be mulling over right about now. It's time to let that fantasy fade away into the contentment of reality.

There are plenty of metaphors flying around today and for the next few days. Figure out how they apply to your real life. You might not make any money off of the realization, but the changes you do experience from it will be worth all the money you could possibly hope or work for.

Others are impressed with your generosity and, frankly, so are you. You never knew you had it in you to give as much as you have this year, and you haven't even gotten to a final tally yet. You're not even in it for the tax receipts. In fact, you're only too glad to help.

Your credit card is maxed out and your bank account is overdrawn, but don't let that mislead you into thinking you're going to miss out on anything important. You still have plenty to give that has nothing to do with either.

You already understand one of life's most important pearls of wisdom: When you give from the heart, the one who receives the most is you. You know that when you give to others, you're really treating yourself well, and you make it look easy.
